    We have t gutted the military. Plenty of data here to show that's not true. Ya gotta stop listening to the nutters in tv who have a stake in com idiotic your fear. So just flush the whole paragraph
    .


    As long as corporate welfare still exist s I'm. It going to deny a needy person a thing. Billionaires don't need our welfare and they keep getting it. You serve that constituency. I don't. And don't give the crap about jahb creators either ....bull crap. Just read kochs goi g to spend almost 700 million to best trump one of three reasons being he opposes corporate welfare I.e. Their titty.



    I see. So keep spending to prop up failing economies where are bases are but nothing for our own? Sounds like you are fine with welfare for our tin pot dictator allies but not our own children.

    I see. That's a compassionate conservative.




    Yep out of one side of mouth it's American exceptionalism greatest country etc and out of other is get over it we can't have nice things like the Europeans...becuase we can't

    And before America stepped in it was a peaceful oasis in the burning desert . No one got gassed, murdered, tortured, etc. The prisons were like Club Med. Yellowcake, Patty Cake , it is all the same. Any deaths of innocents at the hands of Americans was an unfortunate consequence, mostly not not by design. We also paid a heavy price.

    The US Navy is the same size as it was 50 or more years ago. The problem is deployment capabilities. With more than 85 % of the fleet in use, there isn't in many people's opinion, enough reserve. We are fighting now using part time National Guard, on leave from normal jobs. I and out, 3, 4, 6 times. When they get there they are handcuffed by " rules of engagement" . When we won in the past , the only rule of engagement was kill or be killed.

    You hear this in chunks from Progressives. They have backed down from finger pointing at those " evil" oil companies , because they have LOWERED their prices. You can't make a case for greed when they are putting money back in the pockets of Americans. When is the last time taxes went down because LESS had to be spent? Those Billionaires, how dare they. Unless they are sitting in jail, anything they have is their property. Inherited, earned, invested , etc. Whatever the reason, they have come out ahead. Progressives want to punish success and reward failure.

    High Speed rail costs too much. You will never get the money back from fares. It will , as it always has, be highly subsidized. Europe is completely opposite of us. They use their rails for people moving, we use it to move freight. We have cheap fuel, they don't. Their highways are choked with trucks hauling freight, while our trains move massive loads over great distances.

      We all ( I hope ) respect the Veterans. However they were not drafted, and their decision to sign on was of their own free will.

      SH was contained. Sure, if you say so. His past record of gassing people, murders, torture, materials for WMDs , all fine and dandy. I wonder if Obama was President he would have given him back $ 150 billion after they burned our flag and chanted " death to America " . I understand that the principal mind set of Progressives is appeasement, to concede.

      Building our infrastructure. Another progressive favorite. Didn't we do that with the trillion dollar $$ Stimulus ? You know, the one where the " shovel ready " jobs weren't quite ready ? The one where plenty of cash rolled into unions , cronies, studies, plans whatever that just got gobbled up ?

      Iran, appeasement and concede. North Korea can keep their nukes, but Iran can't. I'm sure behind closed doors the Mullahs keep that fact under the table. We got played. Plain and simple. They released " hostages" that were arrested on trumped up charges , and we let them have their criminals back. WE release $ 150 billion, they take their business elsewhere. " It was their money " . Sure, all accumulated while they were in violation. So slap them on the wrist and send them back out to play. Sounds just like Progressive Criminals Justice System here.

      They burn our flag, chant " Death to America" . But they are really nice people and they want to get back into the world economy. Well how about they earn I ? Let's hear from Progressives on their Human Rights Agenda, their " War on Women "

      Just like the minimum wage. You don't like it, move up. They way it used to be. You only " deserve" what someone is willing to pay you. Get educated, learn a trade. The only shortfall is the lack of engagement for the task at hand.

      We are not in South Korea because they can't defend themselves. We are only there because while we are there, it hold NK in check. We also have to be there to avoid a Chinese issue, as they are NK biggest friend. They feed most all of NK.

      Obama has instituted changes at the VA ? It takes time ? Not as much time I guess than a midnight deal behind closed doors to disrupt the lives of Americans with the ACA. Rammed that one through in record time. Vets ? Take a number, you are used to it.


      High Speed rail is a loser. It will cost a fortune to build with massive overruns in cost, environmental issues and bickering. It will always need massive subsidies. With the national Debt now @ 19 TRillion $$$ , we can't afford it.

        Sh was contained. Sure, if you say so. His past record of gassing people, murders, torture, materials for wmds , all fine and dandy. Nothing we as a nation haven't done. I wonder if obama was president he would have given him back $ 150 billion after they burned our flag and chanted " death to america " . You clearly don't understand iran. I do. I have several close iranian friends (all of whom worked for the shah). You need to understand political rhetoric. Furthermore you need to understand that there are vast differences between the iranian people, its political, and its religious leadership. I understand that the principal mind set of progressives is appeasement, to concede. What you view as appeasement i view as non intervention.

        Building our infrastructure. Another progressive favorite. Didn't we do that with the trillion dollar $$ stimulus ? You know, the one where the " shovel ready " jobs weren't quite ready ? The one where plenty of cash rolled into unions , cronies, studies, plans whatever that just got gobbled up ? It doesn't change the fact that the money was spent inside the us. You really don't understand that a dollar isn't a dollar. I am not going to explain it to you. Go study economics and figure it out for yourself.

        Iran, appeasement and concede. North korea can keep their nukes, but iran can't. Comapring iran to north korea is simplistic. K i sun is batpoop crazy. Irans leaders are not. I'm sure behind closed doors the mullahs keep that fact under the table. We got played. Plain and simple. They released " hostages" that were arrested on trumped up charges , and we let them have their criminals back. Do you seriously believe that these were innocent americans just experiencing iranian culture? C'mon - they were spies and they got caught. You surely can't be that naive. We release $ 150 billion, they take their business elsewhere. " it was their money " . Sure, all accumulated while they were in violation. So slap them on the wrist and send them back out to play. Sounds just like progressive criminals justice system here.

        They burn our flag, chant " death to america" . But they are really nice people and they want to get back into the world economy. Well how about they earn i ? Let's hear from progressives on their human rights agenda, their " war on women " saudi arabia is far more abusive of womens right but they are an ally so it is ok.

        Just like the minimum wage. You don't like it, move up. They way it used to be. You only " deserve" what someone is willing to pay you. Get educated, learn a trade. The only shortfall is the lack of engagement for the task at hand. Virtually every business in my area of nh is woefully understaffed because they are too stupid to realize they need to pay more. A seacoast job fair for entry level jobs had more companies present than attendees. Businesses are now beginning to realize that their decision to throttle workers at under 30 hours is costing them business. Slow service and long lines are the norm all up and down the seacoast.

        We are not in south korea because they can't defend themselves. We are only there because while we are there, it hold nk in check. We also have to be there to avoid a chinese issue, as they are nk biggest friend. They feed most all of nk. Our nk policy is rooted in a 1950's mentality. China will not sacrifice its interests in the us for nk. Nk could not mount a sustained offensive. Their military is obsolete and much of their alleged strength is inoperable.

        Obama has instituted changes at the va ? It takes time ? Not as much time i guess than a midnight deal behind closed doors to disrupt the lives of americans with the aca. Rammed that one through in record time. Vets ? Take a number, you are used to it. Not obamas fault. 100% the fault of congressional gop who have defeated every measure to increase va funding. Many va centers are running efficiently but some are not. Too many people seeking help and nobody was prepared for the damage iraq did to our troops.


        High speed rail is a loser. It will cost a fortune to build with massive overruns in cost, environmental issues and bickering. It will always need massive subsidies. With the national debt now @ 19 trillion $$$ , we can't afford it. National debt is actually lower as a % of gdp compared to 1946. You conservatives don't seen to have any problem spending money when it involves killing people. When it comes to doing things to benefitting society we suddenly cant afford it.

            It would be easier if you just sent us some Youtube clips from Fox News. Do you write for them? Christ, your post is straight out of the "simplistic view of the world" book.

                      And the question is why?

                      Just consider it took 410 days to build the Empire State Building.

                        Interesting. I'm sure there are lots of reasons why that went so quickly. One reason being the complete disregard for the environment and impact studies then vs. now.

                            I am a Registered Democrat , and I don't even watch Fox, CNN or any of the Alphabet mainstream media.

                            Issues are simpler than you think . It is the handwringing and Social Justice seekers that muck up the works.

                                I commend you for your honesty (if true). This thread needs more people discussions their own positions, not party lines, as it's a microcosm of what is wrong with our political party system.

                                Just as many will follow the far left, and far right, into a 100' well if that's what they are told to do. Slamming "Faux News", or anything to do with Obama, just because of the source isn't helping this country.
