I would say the twit would be the person not having an issue with all that waste and her attitude on the whole thing. Especially her comments on people paying with food stamps.
So you see nothing wrong with any of that and will go on record as saying so?

What I see is the hypocrisy, this kind of thing has been the norm in Washington for many years, it's not a partisan thing. The twits are those who attempt to make it one.

You know why Glenn beck doesnt come on during the real news programs? Its because what he has to say isnt the real news.
I guess the bunch of intellectual giants on here can't differentiate between "news" and commentary/opinion.

Beck, Hannity, Oreilly are not involved with reporting the hard news.

Just like doberman and his brother, maddow are not reporting the "news".

Steady?

If a 20 point slide is steady...so be it.

Your imagination is not debatable.

Unless you can prove the number of kept promises of our first president.
I'd love to see it.
You wouldn't believe it if someone wrote them down for you. I guess you are as uninformed of our early history as most lefties since you seem to think that Washington became the first President by running for the office. Do you know that TV wasn't even invented until the FDR administration? Do you know that there were no radios back then? How about nationwide newspapers?

I think you will find that Washington was elected on name recognition from the Revolution and the Constitutional Convention period. There were no political parties and he did not travel all over the nation making campaign promises as candidates do now. It was this very situation that led the Founders to provide for the electoral college system.

It is ok for you to be so uninformed about these things because I know what kind of textbooks have been used to teach all this hate for the US and so on, since the 70s. I used to teach the subject and surely couldn't do it with the present day books. When was it that you studied all your American History?

You have some extreme reading and/or comprehension problems roy.

The poster I responded to claimed that Washington and Jefferson kept more than 43 campaign promises.

Did that poster show any of Washington's promises? I wonder where he got them. The man did not want that job, at all, so he surely didn't make a lot of promises.

Then why are you trying to argue with me?
I didn't say it.

Did I hurt your feelings at some point Roys?
Panties in a bunch?
Training bra too tight?

We are closer than we were a year ago. Also, most of those Third World countries are dictatorial or socialistic which we aren't, YET but we are gaining and that is what Obama and his shadow government in the White House are aimed at, and you know it.
