    So in your opinion, what is it exactly that obama has done to create these things...

    perhaps its purely coincidence 

    could you give me 3 or more specific examples of thing that specifically obama has done to create these conditions?

    my prediction based on history that you will say that you could... but it is too hard for you to do... and just wait for another one of the "usual suspects" to come give you a "bail out"...

    but I dont mind being wrong...  I am not one of those idiots that will mock/insult others because they have a different view...

    prove me wrong

    So you are going bowslit with trying to make up lies and try to pin them on me...

    here's some facts...

    1. Ive been here since 2003...  so logically I have more posts....

    2.  Sit in front of the cpu all day?  LOL!  
    if you tracked my posting obsessively like slim/gbp/bma etc, you would know that I only post during the two windows of time that I have in my busy night... after everyone goes to sleep and during this window of time that I have a break....

    3.  pounce on any view I dont like? rolf!
    How do you know I dont like your view?  If anything I am asking you clarify your view and talk more about it...

    4.  Your answer about middle class and "bank books" Fails to answer the question... lets try this again... 

    Could you give me 3 or more specific examples of thing that specifically obama has done to create these conditions?

    my prediction based on history that you will say that you could... but it is too hard for you to do... and just wait for another one of the "usual suspects" to come give you a "bail out"...

    more recent history however would say that you would try to fabricate a bunch of lies to pin on me and then argue against...

    So you are going bowslit with trying to make up lies and try to pin them on me...

    here's some facts...

    1. Ive been here since 2003...  so logically I have more posts....

    2.  Sit in front of the cpu all day?  LOL!  
    if you tracked my posting obsessively like slim/gbp/bma etc, you would know that I only post during the two windows of time that I have in my busy night... after everyone goes to sleep and during this window of time that I have a break....

    3.  pounce on any view I dont like? rolf!
    How do you know I dont like your view?  If anything I am asking you clarify your view and talk more about it...

    4.  Your answer about middle class and "bank books" Fails to answer the question... lets try this again... 

    Could you give me 3 or more specific examples of thing that specifically obama has done to create these conditions?

    my prediction based on history that you will say that you could... but it is too hard for you to do... and just wait for another one of the "usual suspects" to come give you a "bail out"...

    more recent history however would say that you would try to fabricate a bunch of lies to pin on me and then argue against...

    Lets try this again are middle class and the poor better off now than 5 years ago.Next how would help get the middle class going again, the middle is dying and is becoming the working poor.Obama has done nothing to help small buiness and the middle class.As far as his power,well obama care got passed. Why did we need obama care.I am looking for solutions for the country not some cheap Chicago street hustle.Next as far as your number of posts, 10 years is over 2000 posts a year,myself 4and half years less than 200 per year.You seem to like numbers well those are reals numbers.

    Here's an idea... Maybe The House could actually do their job and work on the budget rather than trying to overturn Obama care for the 33rd time. And no, I do not exaggerate.  33 fukking times.

    But with out a clear connection to what it is specifically that obama has done to result in the middle class having it rough, it could be said that it is "Purely Coincidence"

    you also bring up obamacare...

    Lets try and talk some reality here for a moment...

    and think about someone like myself... middle class/small business owner...

    I have no health insurance because I choose not to work for someone else...  I could pay for insurance, but that is extremely costly...  if I were upper class, it would be peanuts... I could pay out of pocket...  but because I am a middle class small business owner,  it is a quite a burden in proportion to the income I make from my business...

    so Obamacare would provide coverage for some exactly like me... obamacare would help out specifically someone like me as a small business owner of middle class status...

    so the reality is that obama probably benefits the middle class small business the most... people in poverty just suck from the system...  the middle class small business owner doing well stimulates the economy... and rather then having to put aside money for health insurance, they can invest it back into their own business to try to make it more profitable...

    No insults here... It seems you dont have knowledge of that topic... I just take it you are not familiar with being a middle class small business owner... and thats okay that you dont know what youre talking about

    I think 40 years of working for myself makes me more aware of running a business than most. If you are not able to buy medical coverage,maybe you should go to work for someone else.Sounds like your business is not doing to well,if you can not afford health medical.I am not picking on you but i am a numbers guy.

    He expects the government to cover his medical in the same way that his mom takes care of his rent, food, and laundry. Middle class medical costs have escalated sharply under obama, that alone proves his detachment from reality.

    The hatred for Bush has been loud and proud. It's time for Obama to show that he can do better, Hopefully his foibles will be as scrutinized and magnified. I doubt it though. He seems to have gotten a pass to this point. Here are a couple benchmarks for the first day of his presidency. Please add your own.

    Or the countries credit rating
    Or home foreclosures
    Or a National debt nearing 17 trillion dollars

Where is Obama's budget that he is required to produce? He simply sent a note saying it was going to be late. How nice of him. Harry Reid and Obama have FAILED in their job to produce a budget on time.

    Stay disciplined and manage your bankroll

    Personally I get health benefits through my wife... business is going okay for me... cant complain for what I do...

    so personally I dont need obamacare, nor do I want obamacare for medical coverage...

    but you do you disagree with my premise that obamacare actually would be helpful to the middle class small business owner?

    Excuse me, THIRTY-FOUR times now in a row.

    So, you claim The House has DONE THEIR JOB by producing a budget that would REPEAL Obamacare Thirty-four times in a row?

    Really?

    I would suggest you educate yourself.

    THE PEOPLE FEEL OTHERWISE

    Presidential Approval 54%

    Congressional Approval 13%

    Odds that you Republican dopes get another MAJOR azzkicking in 2014...

    Approval ratings have nothing to do with the fact that yes the House Republicans have done their job by passing a budget regardless of what is in it. You cannot say the same about Obama and the Democrat Senate. They have NOT passed a budget good or bad as required by law. These facts are not disputable.

    I suggest you get educated on these facts.

    Yes Paul Ryan lost as the VP nominee in the Presidential election. Once again that has nothing to do with him and the Republicans doing their job of producing a budget. It's fair to argue the contents of that budget, such as their obsession of including repeal of Obamacare in every piece of legislation, but they produced a budget that they claim will balance the budget in 10 years even with increased spending and no tax hikes. Not sure if that is practical or not, I'll let the CBO grade it first, but from what the Dems are talking about (no budget yet) they don't balance the budget, increase spending and massive tax hikes on the so called rich.

    Hopefully the Dems in the Senate actually produce a budget for the first time in over 3 years, then we would just need the Obama budget for everyone to be in compliance of the law.  

    Stay disciplined and manage your bankroll

    1.  As I predicted... you cant give me 3 specific examples...  game over... you fail... All good tho it was exactly what I predicted... Failure...

    2.  Read my posts... I say "some one like me"...  and you can even ask bowslit who went bananas over the "out of this world benefits" that my wife gets to cover our family for medical coverage...  I just use a myself as an example as a middle class small business man... I can speak for people in that position because I am a middle class small business man...

    3.  Funny that you get all obsessed about post count to deflect from answering the questions... you make these statements, but when asked to back them up with facts you use these tactics as deflection and run like a coward...

    How can I have hard feelings against a coward?

    u mad bro?

    why not just simply answer the question?

    Could you give me 3 or more specific examples of thing that specifically obama has done to create these conditions?

    calm down...  take a few deep breathes before you have another meltdown into cussing me out.... 

    Lets see if you can simply pull yourself together from your tail spin...  can we agree to give a heave ho to the sailor talk shall we?

    perhaps you are all upset because you lost another mud wrestling match
