when did barry say he was going to take money directly from rich peoples' bank accounts and give it to lazy people? let's talk specifics and not just conservative catch phrases.

he would like to give a tax cut to those who make under $250K per year - the middle class. personally, i think people who have three homes and 12 jet skis can afford it.

A t last someone answered my question(somewhat...). Better than last week when it was just stupidity & frivolity. Now, is it fair to take money from someone who has gone to school, racked up huge debts, worked 6 or 7 days a week & 10/14 hour days & finally starts making money & give it to someone who has never made a successful effort in their life? Yes, the money actually is coming from their bank accounts at some point. And the person who is getting the "free" money is someone who doesn't pay income taxes & has never actually done anything with their lives. 


In organized religions it's called caring for the less fortunate.

I think Glenny fears that Obama will continue the Bush policies of taking from the rich and giving to the military contractors and bankers.

...

Although others threw hissy fits last week & tried to get me banned )for which they've earned my undying enmity) I'm not lying when I say that I gave up on Bush quite a while ago. His ineptitude & general absence this past year solidified my dislike of what he has done.


You have to admit that Bush's efforts are socialistic in nature . . .no?

The organization that negotiates for your high wages and great benefits has this to say about Obama. . .


NATCA CONGRATULATES PRESIDENT-ELECT OBAMA, LOOKS FORWARD TO WORKING TOGETHER FOR A SAFER, MORE EFFICIENT AVIATION SYSTEM
WASHINGTON, D.C. – The nation’s air traffic controllers and aviation safety professionals, represented by NATCA, are joining today in the exuberant celebration of the historic election of Barack Obama and extend their congratulations to him on this special day of restored hope for the United States of America. NATCA President Patrick Forrey released the following statement as the organization now looks forward to the bright future of the National Airspace System:

  “President-elect Obama supported NATCA from the beginning in our long struggle for fair collective bargaining rights with the Federal Aviation Administration. We were proud to support him and join with working men and women across the country to win this campaign. We’re in a new horizon. Our nation’s aviation system will be restored to provide the traveling public the highest level of safety and efficiency to give our economy a stimulus through renewed focus on our infrastructure.

“For more than two years now our workforce has been one in crisis, attacked and disrespected by an anti-union administration. But change is coming. It is imminent. And NATCA will be there to welcome, embrace and escort it as we work together for a safer, more efficient system. No longer will the employees at the FAA be treated like the enemy. There will be a culture change. We greatly look forward to working together with President-elect Obama’s administration to modernize our infrastructure while enhancing safety in a spirit of mutual respect and collaboration. We also will offer our service as the dedicated safety professionals we are, stationed on the front lines of the system.

“NATCA has waited a long time for this day and we couldn’t be happier in embracing the hope that fairness will finally be brought back into the FAA. President-elect Obama’s victory has brought about something this controller workforce has not felt in more than two years – hope for change.”

Starbuck's analysis is well-reasoned, fair and balanced.  Sirmoonie's assertion that McCain was clearly the more qualified candidate is not.  McCain's selection of Sarah Palin as his running mate vitiated any claim to good judgment that he might otherwise have made.


fair and balanced. that's me. i'm the #@$*ing fox news of rocks off.

i believe moonie was hinting at the fact that mccain was more qualified because he has more experience. nobody can deny that. obama is still wet behind his big, floppy ears in terms of his governmentalism, and mccain has been governing since rocks were invented. from that perspective, moon q. dizzle is correct.

however...palin thinks dinosaurs and people walked on the earth at the same time! tee hee! was that good judgement? hell nizzle.

She was chosen over the other creep because she's never put on a cloak and baptized dead guys by proxy.  At least as far as I know she hasn't.

moonie...c'mon. palin? don't tell me you can defend the selection.  she was a hail mary that sailed into the third row of bleachers behind the end zone.

she should be kept as far away from the oval office as possible.  if she could baptise dead people in the name of her lord and savior jesus h. christ, you better believe she would.

She turned out to be a zero, so what?  Again, its a VP pick.  I completely understand why politicians have to pander to certain groups for votes, and the higher the office, the more they have to.  That's a reflection of the public's stupidity, not the person running.  I watched her the other day, she's not entirely stupid or psycho.  She fired up Bush Geeks and some others that weren't, for whatever silly ass reason, going to vote McCain.  Seriously, what else do you chose a vice president for?  To be a vice president?  Yeah.

I've never heard a decent explantion for Obama hanging around Rev. Wright for 20 years, and ditching him only when he became a liability.  I don't even hold it against him that much, nor think it makes any real difference in how well he will do.  But its far worse judgment in my mind than picking Palin for a cheerleading position.

I am well aware that you were referring to someone else.  Nothing in my post suggested that I thought otherwise.  My point was to contrast your whining about others purportedly trying to get you banned with your oblique suggestion that someone do the same to me.  I hardly think the point was as subtle as all that; you just don't seem to be a terribly careful reader (or thinker, perhaps).  If I were to engage in such careless processing of information, you would be right to call me an idiot.  Happily, I do not.

At least you argue your own points, not so neo-con right wing soundbites, with racial tones recently... I haven't heard one orginal view from the right, except for Riffy, who realized the billion dollar bailout was bullshit... Repression always was a term used to describe people and cultures, not an econmic crash...

A t last someone answered my question(somewhat...). Better than last week when it was just stupidity & frivolity. Now, is it fair to take money from someone who has gone to school, racked up huge debts, worked 6 or 7 days a week & 10/14 hour days & finally starts making money & give it to someone who has never made a successful effort in their life? Yes, the money actually is coming from their bank accounts at some point. And the person who is getting the "free" money is someone who doesn't pay income taxes & has never actually done anything with their lives.  


In organized religions it's called caring for the less fortunate.

It doesn't take religion--organized or otherwise--to care for others.  In fact, it's an evolutionary feature, as sociobiology teaches us.  Religion, on the other hand, is an unmitigated disaster.  As one smart fellow wrote, "Religion is an insult to human dignity.  With or without it, you'd have good people doing good things and evil people doing bad things.  But for good people to do bad things, it takes religion."
