For general discussion and debate. Possible talking point: Increased government spending on birth control will help the economy?

This woman is the second in line for the presidency behind the vice president. How does that make you feel?

Billy-Chuck Ayers considers John McCain a terrorist. 

Perfect Demotivator for the Obama Administration

Too bad

Too bad Bill Ayers was in hiding before the election. He is an unrepentant, unapologetic terrorist. There's no need to parse words.

His comparison of himself to national leaders calling them terrorists and hmself just a man, is what I would expect him to say.

Pelosi is an idiot!

Her justification made absolutely no sense whatsoever.

It certainly isn't the

It certainly isn't the world of a "devout Catholic grandmother" as she calls herself.

Her Speakerness is a poor excuse for a Catholic.  How long before she and others like her are advocating a one-child policy (voluntary at first, of course)?  The only Catholic teachings they respect are the "social justice" parts. 

She has actually said that the question of "when life begins" should NOT be allowed to infringe on a woman's "right to choose."

For that alone she should be excommuncated, and I really wish she would be, along with Kerry.  They should not be allowed to publicly flout the teachings of their Church and still call themselves "Catholic."

Agree totally.  She

Agree totally.  She constitutes part of what I like to call "the other Catholic scandal."

Hello Everyone.

Hi everyone.  I just want to say that I've been checking out New Busters for a while now and I finally got accepted.

Anyway... Is there ANY doubt about this woman being a psycho b!tch?  What kind of twisted logic does she use?  To bad that her parents didn't abort her when he was mayor of Baltimore, MD.

Hello MM07 and everyone

I'm a recently accepted reader of Newsbusters as well. NB reads and watches so I don't have to.

On to Pelosi, this stunningly stupid remark caught my eye just before I clicked over here. Even she probably doesn't know what she meant. Twisted logic doesn't begin to describe the idiocy here. My formula for stimulus is for the government to leave us alone. That and they do what my family is doing right now - downsizing the budget.

 

Presdent Bush surrounded himself with competent people...

...our new president seems to think that suurounding himself with "village idiots" (Biden, Rahmbo, Hillary, Pelosi, Reid) makes him look good!

OMO...Obama's running his mouth again

How far will the Dow drop this time?

Doesn't he know he won already and it's time to SHUT UP!!!!

I am sick of being lectured to by this economic illiterate.  "Need more than the same old empty promises"....then ratchets up CAFE standards.   Riiiiiight, Barry.  I'm with Rush!!!

And as for Nanny....she's dumber than a box of rocks.  And the "leader" of this herd of porcine congresscritters.

Great quote from Dr. Sowell:

 New things require long delays before they can get started, especially when they have to be done by politicians. Someone once said that Congress would take 30 days to make instant coffee-- and Congress is just the beginning of the delays, as all sorts of competing interests jockey for position at the public trough.

Dow is down 14 since Obama started blathering.

 

Porcine congresscritters is

Porcine congresscritters is right. And it appears they are going to become much fatter very soon, as I think the hideous $825 billion vote-buying bill is going to sail through congress unscathed.

Any republican that votes for that bill should be publicly flogged.

I noticed PrezBo is going to allow individual states to set their own emissions requirements.

If the economy doesn't destroy the US automakers, that insanity surely will.

Pigs to the Trough

Many years ago, the mayor of Ft. Lauderdale equated non-profit organizations looking for public money with "pigs to the trough".

Well, well, well....I found this nifty site, the US conference of mayors, which lists "shovel ready projects" by municipality.

Who are the real "pigs to the trough", eh?

Fort Lauderdale is requesting a mere $115 million.   Come on, don't laugh, we really need community centers for all of the unemployed people.

 

Vote-buying bill, indeed. 

Vote-buying bill, indeed.  Michelle Malkin calls it a "crap sandwich."

I think it will get even more interesting...now that birth control has been classified thus, I can't wait to see what else they can distort into being called an "economic stimulus."

Well, of course increased

Well, of course increased government spending on birth control will help the economy.  After all, increased taxpayer subsidies for House Speaker airplane upgrades and botched plastic surgery have already helped!

The winning team will be required to offer reparations to the losers, and the individual players will be suspended from school if they ever, ever even hint that they did no wrong.

Here's a beautiful quote from Palin

"Two years ago at this podium, I urged spending restraint. I asked that billions of surplus funds be deposited in state savings. This struck me as a simple precaution against, as I described it, massive single-year cuts down the road, if and when we faced tougher times. You legislators agreed, so we can now meet our challenge in a stronger position.

And you understood the challenge is not just to think fast and change plans when the price of oil suddenly falls, affecting revenue by billions of dollars. The challenge is to follow a consistent plan despite inconsistent prices.

With prudence, you built our reserves – that was good planning. This national economic downturn that’s spread to the energy market – it found us prepared. And that’s more than many states can say about their financial situation."

-Sarah Palin, State of the State of Alaska speech

How can anyone say this woman doesn't know what she's doing?  In this economy, she's got a state surplus that she asked the government to sit on for just such an occasion.  Meanwhile, this airhead Pelosi is talking about how contraception will save money while her state is on the verge of Bankruptcy.

The woman will say anything

Her contraception argument was hilarious, sure enough, but she had other whoppers in that interview.

One of my favorites is when she assured us that the stimulation package was bi-partisan. When confronted with the fact that the GOP was complaining about being shut out of the process, she unleashed another whopper. Her (again hilarious) argument was that the bill was bi-partisan because the majority listened to the Republicans' arguments, and evaluated whether they were appropriate.

Bolton/KEYES 2012 

I agree and firmly believe

the economy will right itself . I do not object using public funds to help individual people with getting along when they lose their jobs but I always fear it becoming a permanent state of affairs.

Contractions and expansions of the economy are natural and normal. The "law" of unintended consequences may prevail with this meddling (see Fannie and Fred for that "unintended consequence of social planning) because the exact amount of meddling to "right" the economy is an unknown quantity and all this falls into the "We have go to do something" category. It just looks like an excuse to loot the treasury for their pet ideological projects and for the politicians to look like they are doing something constructive.

Change: When the winds of change blow hard enough, the most trivial of things can become deadly projectiles. From a Poster

What?

I saw this on Drudge and wondered what in the world these folks are thinking. This economic crisis is deepening and the Barry, Nancy, Harry triumvirate is fiddling. This stuff that makes up the so-called bailout is useless if all it does is advance the Liberal agenda.

Make the banks solvent and force them to extend reasonable credit to qualified business or the current recession will descend into depression. No planes or $1million renovations to offices until borrowers are able to access credit.

There are a number of companies in our area that have folded or restricted their business because the banks called in their notes or wouldn't roll over construction bonds. The banks won't make loans available so they loose income from existing business that would improve their bottom line.

 

What A Joke

What I find so funny is Nanny and Schumer saying: "We're trying to work with the Republicans.  We're including tax cuts because that's the way the Republicans like to work." 

No, you're including tax cuts so that if the whole thing blows up you can blame the Republicans.

Stephiwussie...

...you gutless little twerp. Why bother even asking the question if you're going to take that nonsense for an answer.

Try something like this next time:

Woah, woah, woah! Madam Speaker, please, for the benefit of my audience, could you answer the question. How will millions in spending on "family planning services" have a distinct effect stimulating the economy? I fail to see how "reducing costs" will do this.

Challenge Georgie, challenge! Ah, it'll never happen.

To steal a quote from the

To steal a quote from the great Jim Quinn, to a liberal, each new baby is a burden on society, another draw on limited resources. To a Conservative, each new baby is a potential new resource, a benefit to society.

her "more bang for the buck" idea....

...is one of the more ridiculous things i have heard come out of her mouth, and that is saying a lot!  (in my neck of the woods, we would say that she doesn't have the sense God gave a turnip green!)  hard to believe that she really thinks "investing" in entitlements is sound economics.  the only thing sound about that kind of policy is the guarantee that voters who are enslaved (by entitlements) to their elected officials will continue to sheepishly vote for those who have enslaved them.

Addition to the Constitution

I am hereby requiring an addition to the Constitution.

When we were children, we used to play a game.  Everyone would line up with their legs about 2 feet apart.  Then one person would have to crawl through all the other kid's legs.  As they were crawling through, the ones standing spanked the one crawling through. 

I propose that at certain times of the year, members of Congress should be required to crawl through the legs of people that have lined up on the Washington Mall. 

"family planning"

  When I was a probation officer I wasn't allowed to mention family planning (read birth control) at all, under any circumstances.  It was consided to be racist.  One "client" was 35, had 5 kids and her oldest was about to make her a grandmother.  She wanted information for herself and her daughter and I wasn't allowed to discuss it with her AT ALL.  The idea is that speaking to a "minority" about family planning is promoting genocide and is nothing more than another way to keep african-americans down.  Of course, Nancy will get a pass.    While I might be vilified for this, I agree with Nan on this one after seeing so many young women with 6 or 7 kids they couldn't afford to feed on their own.  Dependent on food stamps and other gov programs to keep it going.  If family planning included teaching good judgement and self respect, it might work.

love is never having to say I'm sorry.

Another disappointment--

 

"The Homeland Security Department still is requiring high-level approval before federal immigration agents can arrest fugitives, a rule quietly imposed by the Bush administration days before the election of Barack Obama, whose aunt has been living in the United States illegally.

The unusual directive from the Homeland Security Department came amid concerns that such arrests might generate "negative media or congressional interest," according to a newly disclosed federal document obtained by The Associated Press."

Media and the Democratic Gems

.......my wife said it best.  After watching the primary and election coverage, she simply expressed her passing opinion of the veteran news anchors/reporters across the board as “a bunch of enamored gloating young girls”.

He is part of the let's set'em up, wind'em, and let'em expouse without question. Of course, he has a job that he wants to keep so he has positioned himself in a sycophant-to-survive role.  Even better put Diane Sawyer next to him.  Just gets sickening gooey.

My problem is believing in any of our politicians.  Thier power comes from our taxes and the long terms.  And still unexplained is how the people do not or cannot hold there representatives responsible yet keep reelecting the same representative that continue to reek havoc on out political system and degrade America.  Besides Pelosi/Reid/Dodd/Schumer,... et al.

My perfect opinionate example John Murtha (D-PA). The perfect political package - prideful, arrogant, smarmy, ... on and on. 

 

Okay. It's certified now.

Okay. It's certified now. This woman is absolutely insane.

Okay, let me understand this.

First, having an abortion stimulates the economy? Huh? Apparently, Nancy forgot about one key item of the economy. It's called people. You need people to produce and consume.

Second, Nancy asserts that all economist agree that you get a larger bang for your buck with food stamps and unemployment insurance than with tax cuts. The very first question in my mind (the one that the sycophantic George Stephanopolous does not ask) is who? Name me the economists (besides Paul Krugman who thinks government is the answer to everything) that think food stamps stimulate the economy.

Another question is can you name me a single example where food stamps and unemployment insurance actually stimulated the economy? I can't think of one. 

This woman is absolutely insane and no one is calling her on it.

Ok Pelosi. You say fewer

Ok Pelosi. You say fewer babies will help the ecnomic stiuation. Japan, in a deep recession, is encouraging reproduction. Even giving workers off early, twice a week, to go home and play whoopie! Now your telling us that will hurt Japans recovery?

What part of "stupid idea" do you not understand? Fewer babies = Fewer future workers = ecnomic downturn = third world USA.

Save a SeAL, club a liberal!!

Nancy Is a Genius

Let's see. We are creating a mountain of debt for our children and grandchildren to pay off. So, it only makes sense to have fewer offspring to help pay it off.

Pelosi and Coulter Agree!

PELOSI: Well, the family planning services reduce cost. They reduce cost. The states are in terrible fiscal budget crises now and part of what we do for children's health, education and some of those elements are to help the states meet their financial needs. One of those - one of the initiatives you mentioned, the contraception, will reduce costs to the states and to the federal government.

Isn't this what Ann Coulter was trying to say that Single Mothers do? 

Difference is Coulture says keep your legs closed. Pelosi says do what you want. Uncle Sam has some medicine to "protect" you.

Negative population growth is good for the economy? Huh.

Isn't a perpetual positive population growth required for the successful funding of the Medicare/Universal Health Care and Social Security Ponzi--I mean social programs?

Isn't a growing economy supposed to supplied with more and more workers and more and more jobs as the timeline progresses into the future?

But somehow...by reducing human reproduction, government will fix the economy.

Very interesting indeed.

I'm surprised that no one has been sucked into the gravitational pull of the black hole that resides inside Pelosi's skull. How do these people ever get elected? How stupid are the people that are voting for these idiots?

And to add insult to

And to add insult to injury, Obama is all for imposing greater fuel efficiency requirements on the already foundering auto industry.

Reality check, Mr. Boy President: If the auto makers could make automobiles more fuel efficient they would...ALL their customers desperately want greater fuel efficiency. Who wouldn't want to buy a car that topped 50 MPG or more? The problem is the internal combustion engine...it has hit it's efficiency wall...for over 100 years engineers have been wringing every bit of efficiency out of internal combustion engines...most of the energy that is not harnessed is due to heat transfer. It doesn't matter what fuels you use, there will still be tremedous inefficiency due to the heat transfer through the enormous (and necessary) friction of the metal parts.

He says, "We must help them thrive by building the cars of tomorrow." (Back to your sinking ship analogy). Yeah, that's what's been holding the engineers back from designing more efficient engines...government wasn't "helping" them do it.

And Obama says it's necessary because our fossil fuel supplies are dwindling. "America will not be held hostage to dwindling resources," he said.
"The days of Washington dragging its heels are over. My administration will not deny facts. We will be guided by them." It's a fact, huh? Were's your source evidence to support your assertion Mr. President?

I just cannot believe the audacity of ignorance that emits from the people currently in power. Given time, I am certain Obama will surpass Jimmy Carter's ineptness at rational thought and reason.

She's as dumb as she looks, folks

Let's be absolutely clear here: What she proposes isn't merely amusing, it is flat out the opposite of what this country needs right now.

Ms. Pelosi, maybe you should cut back on whatever prescription medication you're on.  It's taking its toll on your brain.  Haven't you heard the this country's demographic is aging, that Social Security is rapidly converging on bankruptcy, that we have a huge federal budget deficit that is due primarly to the mandatory spending (which is about 2x as much as military and the gap will continue to grow) for entitlement programs that are becoming a runaway truck due to the aging population?

What is needed is the exact opposite: Incentives for larger families, (brought on by a reduced usage of contraception).  We are barely at replacement rate, and that just ain't gonna cut it in the near future.  This country will be brought to its knees if something is not done to reverse this trend quickly, unless she has in mind extermination of the elderly.

What is it about Democrats when it comes to touting Contraception and Abortion as the answers to all the world's problems?

This is what comes from the naive minds of those who think that the Presidency is just a job with better percs. I don't want it to happen, but I suspect that the realities of the Presidency will eventually cause a good deal of stress to the Obama's marriage. At least Mrs. Clinton and Mrs. Bush had the experience of being governors' wives and a longer history of life in the political limelight. Michelle Obama appears to be a strong, independent sort. But if her relationship with her husband is to endure, she'll need to learn to take a back seat much of the time.

His naive list keeps getting longer:

can't eat his waffle

can't keep his blackberry

can't see his girls off to school

can't have date night with wife

can't play ball in the house (oh wait, that was the Greg, Peter and Bobby Brady)

QM, Well yea, didn't Lincoln have marriage issues.

 

Married for 22 years, Mary and Abraham Lincoln's marriage was a stormy one.


They had different personalities and opposing temperaments. They both
struggled with depression. Mary was used to luxury while Abe had a
background of poverty and hardship. Mary was well educated and Abe had
little formal schooling.

Their love for one another wasn't enough to overcome the grief, disappointments, and lack of communication in their marriage.

Getting ready to vote on Geithner in the Senate.

Hatch is making me ill...I cannot believe the pass along with all the sweet-smelling bull-shite this man is blathering forth at this very moment.

I'm just shaking my head...if any of us ...any of us thought for one second we could get away with the obvious thievery this man attempted to pull-off we would be paying for it...not getting pats and back with sugar-coating and moving on up in the world...

Hatch just said we had better be darn lucky that the Prez wants this guy where he's going to be placed...

Lovely...just lovely.

I'm going to be curious who votes against him.

OMG!

I cannot believe what I am hearing from Tom Harkin regarding Geithner...I also can't believe it is the first time I have ever agreed with his every word so far!!!

I guess miracles do happen!

So far, Sessions, Inhofe, Kyle, Grassley and now Harkin are against him that have stated as such on the floor....I hope some of you have called your Senators if you are against a lying, thieving tax-cheat running the IRS/Treasury Dept.

I know he will have enough to get a pass...but some Senators are up for reelection in less than two years....including McC...this is going to be interesting all the way around..

The arrogance of the congress-critters at times simply amaze me...they don't realize that some of their constituents do not forget.

I called all the Repubs

And some of the Democrats. Told them putting Geithner in would put THEM out come election time. NOBODY wants a tax cheat heading up the Treasury, left or right

I was surprised if I heard right, I think Cornyn voted Aye...I thought I heard him say he was going to vote No on the floor earlier...I may have got it mixed up during working around here...

Anyway...he'll most likely be affirmed, nothing like another lying crook...in like Flynn...he'll join the rest of them.

Makes me sick, let alone furious.

Question to Matt:  How do you get your hair so shiny?

Question to Bill:  Why didn't Bush fly down to New Orleans and rescue those poor black people? Does he hate blacks?

Question to Matt:  Did you enjoy working more with Julia Roberts or Gwynnie Paltrow?

Well the debates are over, and let me just say that Matt Damon gave me a tingle up my spine.  He was indeed the winner of tonight's debate by a long shot. 

I can understand your

I can understand your concern about Bill Kristol damaging his reputation by debating that infant, Matt Damon.  But I don't think you have to worry that Bill Kristol will actually lose the debate.  No matter who the moderator is and what questions will be asked, you can be pretty sure about the substance Matt Damon will bring to the debate.
