Gotta love stupid.

It's so absurd how childish people can be when they have nothing to say...












...yet still have the audacity to act as if they are the brilliant ones.










Isn't it?

The proof is in the pudding, I'll only thank Obama for the great economy only after he dumps all those people still getting government handouts off their handouts.

If the economy is good then there is absolutely no excuse for all the food stamps, unemployment handout extensions, housing vouchers, Medicaid and all the many others.

I actually do believe almost anyone under 40 can easily get a job if they really wanted because the economy is doing well enough. It's time to end all these new disability categories and food stamps and other welfare handouts.

You Bush apologists are amusing.
Actually, it was a cumulative effect beginning with the repeal of the Glass-Steagall Act. You do know who signed that one out of existence, don't you?

I won't go through the history of what the act did, or why. I'm positive that you'll deny it had anything to do with the financial crash. A Bush hating liberal and your previous displays of conceit, tells me this must be the case.


Using deflection and denial to replace facts and calling it knowledge, is the definition of ignorance. Old doesn't necessarily equate to be wise.

Sure. Clinton signed the Gramm Leach Bliley Act. Passed by the GOP congress. Gramm, Leach, and Bliley are all Pubs. But you knew that, didn't you? We'd all be so much better off if Clinton would have vetoed the bill instead of signing that piece of GOP legislation.

It's good you recognize that it was a leading cause of the financial deregulation that lead to Wall St running off the rails.

Speaking as if you had the whole picture when you have a few pixels doesn't equate to knowledge.
