Perhaps they too are are tired of the backwards ways of Missouri.

3rdWard:
ThePatch is National in scope. Frankly every conversation is "political"
in context. Where have you been the past several weeks as each topic evolves into Political debate. If the government can "control" our lives in laws and regulations under "no discussion formats for local communities", than we would not have ThePatch.
Making demands like "stay out of politics" is antiquated in this "Digital" era.
I even have a difficult time staying up to date as I "Text and RIDE"

By your logic, because Obama did not win Missouri in 2008, it is a racist state. That is a bit of a stretch if you ask me.

There are racists and there are nonracists in all 50 states, I'll guarantee you. Just stating the obvious. To call a state "racist" is actually rather meaningless.

PaulRevere, you are right. Today "poor" is more or less an abbreviation for 'the entitled'. Today, poor people have healthcare, cars, mobile phones, select nearly whatever food they want off the grocery shelves, designer clothes, etc. I work to EARN what I have, and I expect my fellow man and women to do the same. I don't want people to be poor, but I don't the system to pay them not to work.

I think there's a big difference between "paying the poor not to work" and Paul Revere's ideas that 90 percent of Missourians have wonderful health care and McCaskill will force bad health care down our throat. What? Now do I think Obama has been a terrific president? No, I don't. But because he introduced so-called Obama Care or Romey Care, insurance companies have started offering health insurance to those who have pre-existing conditions, which is a huge deal to those of us over, oh, say, 45 and who usually have some pre-existing condition. Kids are now routinely allowed to stay on their parents' policies until they are 26. There's a lot to dislike about our health care system, and presidents and Congress have talked about "fixing" it for well over 20 years, and no one's had the guts to do it. Is it the best plan? I don't know and neither do you. But at least the man tried.

That's the Problem, the people turn their backs to the Poor. Try to Buy insurance if you have High Blood Pressure or a few pounds over weight on a fixed income. Try to buy it from the Missouri Health Plan. My wife tried, she is 61 years old with the above issues and for her alone it ranges from $765>$1462. The Obama Plan which she has now, the cost range is $548>$601.and the Plan is Better. Please just try to Buy Insurance if you are near this age with any issues. By the way we are both retired, and Thank GOD for the Obama Plan and Obama.

Hey Bradley Dee-the problem is Obamasocialist didn't "fix" healthcare for you or your wife while NOT effecting the rest of us who's healthcare wasn't "Broke". This year alone because I am now considered to have a Cadillac Health plan which is a JOKE of a statement, I am now paying MORE, yes MORE than I have ever in my 27 years of working at a big corporation. More in copays, more in out of pocket, more in deductibles, more in my paycheck. Funny thing is I liked my insurance all these years and I didn't have one complaint and I appreciated it being offered and provided by my company as part of the compensation package. I worked hard for my job, I have 2 degrees, I work hard every day and appreciated that "perk", now thanks to Obama "fixing" your healthcare issues, mine suck. thanks. No I won't be voting for him or that joke of a McCaskill in November.

OH And I thank Obama for NOTHING, he gives YOU NOTHING for free, why don't you understand that. In order for you to have something extra, something needs to be taken from someone else under his "plan". I say "FIX WHAT IS BROKE"....for those that need it, fix it, BUT LEAVE MY STUFF ALONE, its not broke! HOW Much of my stuff, health care, money, taxes, etc do YOU WANT ME TO GIVE to Obama so he can redistribute to others?? 50%? 60%?, 70%? what will you be happy with? ALL my money? What in the hell ever happened to work hard, pull yourself up, etc? what happened to that? Now it's piss and moan until you get what the other guy has, dont worry about working for it, we'll legally steal it for you and give it to you. DO you really expect the gas working at the gas station that has NO education should have exactly what I have after going to school for 10 years and working hard for it??? do you reallY? Because I don't, and because I don't, that doesn't make me a racist!

LINDA & Bradley:
How is it that you don't understand , obama is FORCING all Americans to buy medical insurance. (He is broke) We are paying for your sad medical problems. That imcludes many businesses that cannot afford it. The world is full of sad stories of illnesess.
over 50mil people have high blood pressure & cholestoral, (my wife does).
Our medical insurance with ANTHEM (formerly blue-cross) is $450 month.
Stop thinking only about yourself, as we other people are paying for your pre-existing conditions.
Hopefully, you are outnumbered by the 250 million people who have been paying for their own care.
We have 300mil Americans. 250mil Americans already have medical insurance.
People like you are only concerned about helping you , but both of you could care less about forcing others to pay your medical bills. That is exactly what obama does.
THIS IS A TAX ON EVERY LIVING PERSON IN AMERICA.
Let me tell you what I don't like.
Paying the medical bills of-16 yr olds having babies-day care centers in High school-Drug addicts-Alcohol abuse-Gang member medical bills-sexual freedom
lifestyles- mountain climbers- your kids accidents in dangerous sports-your auto accidents-your eating habits-
Medical is a personal lifestyle expense. Cancer is catostrophic and anyone used to be able to buy that very very cheap early in life.
We can basic-insure the needy for about $300 monthly.
obamacare is WRONG for America and will start costing big-time starting 2014.

You can see that all the way from Ohio, eh?

You need the govt to keep you healthy? See how ridiculous that sounds? Thats YOUR responsibility, not the "system". Not to mention the infringement on liberties, that will be coming. And yeah, the largest tax in WORLD history.

Excuse me, but where was it written that we need government to keep us healthy? I just posted what SSM has on their website -which seems to run contra to the propaganda put forth by the right wing that Catholic-run insitutions are in complete opposition to the ACA.

It seems a bit naive to think people going to costly emergency rooms and not paying their bills, (which is what the uninsured ultimately do now) does not cause a burden that is shared by the rest of us.

And this bluther about it all being a tax. Well, my health insurance already is a tax. You see, I am healthy and have rarely made a claim (thank you Lord) -so my money is going pay for someone else's care --already. And I am fine with that.

I'd prefer that money be used as efficiently as possible - and that does not occur when the uninsured go to ERs for care.

Jeesh - Where were you guys during the Bush years in opposing the costly Iraq War? Medicare D Prescription drug bill -it costs a load as well.

RDbet:
See my answer right below for your SSM post. SSM is a "Medical PROVIDER".
over 90% of all Catholic institutions (NON_MEDICAL_PROVIDERS) are against ACA. Read the law and you will note that Medical Providers who normally serviced the needy Will actually get more reimbursements From ACA. So it follows SSM likes that. More Money to them.
BUT, more money to them is not coming from the poor. WE ALL ARE GOING TO PAY BILLIONS IN NEW TAXES TO PAY FOR THE 40Million PEOPLE WHO SAY THEY CANNOT AFFORD MEDICAL CARE. We don't need ACA to support the poor.
Now you claim Medical Insurance is a "TAX". That's a choice.
Can you cancel it? Your Free to do that.
Also cancel your auto insurance, your Home insurance , your Life insurance, your cellphone insurance, your "free" public school insurance (called Real Estate Taxes),
At least you have a choice to buy whatever YOU want.
Stop trying to change the facts of what ACA is.
It is NOT healthcare---It is a TAX to buy Insurance.
In your own words---"I am healthy and I rarely use it". You "Are fine with paying for others using ER on your money".
WELL your insurance already pays that, so why do we need to pay a new TAX to pay for 40 mill poor people AGAIN?
Don't you see that Obamacare is a fraud? It is an attempt to get more money to siphon off to more Govt programs We don't need.
Stop trying to find some organization who might confirm what you think ACA is.
You have all the facts in front of you.

PaulRevere (fka Colbert) - I'll be honest -I typically don't read thru your comments, even when I need a laugh to pick me up...I just see that they exist in ALLCAPS glory, and know that it's pointless drivel. It is doubtful anybody else that frequents the Patch regularly reads thru them, regardless of whether they are your fellow tea-partiers or not.

Do not feel bad though, yours aren't the only comments to which I assign zero value, nor do I expect people put much stock in anyone's comments on here -including my own. Sorry if this revelation knocks your 3-cornered hat off your head.

Maybe some tea partiers will man up and rally around you and whatever your crusade is. But that is up to them. After all, it is a free country.
Later.

Health care is not a "right". Anything that has to be paid for can be a natural "right". "Rights" refer to things you should be able to DO individual, not things that you feel you should be "given" to you by others.

Tell the Catholic nuns at SSM that basic healthcare coverage is not a right. It was their statement, not mine.

I'm more concerned with the inefficiencies of our health care system, partly caused by failure in the markets.

Nor should everyone have a good paying job. That isn't how a free market system works. That is how a socialist system works where they attempt to level everything for everyone so that gets paid similarly. In a free market system things are tiered appropriately by a number of factors. Unfortunately there is no free lunch, everyone can't be well off because we live in a world of scarcity and limited resources. If we made everyone wealthy and restarted the system soon the prices would rise and the value of the monetary system would naturally devaluate due to inflation and once again you'd have poor as some would choose more wisely than others.

Sounds like you have underlying resentment towards...naw, nevermind, i forgot it doesn't work like that.

Chrisophers-Masterpiece of a statement.
Post this on every Wall of
Unemployment office
Planned Parenthood
Welfare office and Single Mom's never married.
And Finally, Young woman making male "playgrounds" out of their bodies.
I know, it's your body!!!
Throughout the USA

Yeah Colbert/PaulRevere that is a doozy of a piece of, by Christopher. I see you have some competition on comedy central, but I'm sure you can do better. At least you have him topped in quantity.

So keep up the scathing satire on the extremism harbored in the tea party. The dems probably appreciate your efforts.

christ almighty the man is a SOCIALIST!

WOW! DEVON:
Even I did not have any such concise chart of what's Coming.
Unfortunately, liberals do not understand TAXES. They don't pay any.

Now , I would think all stock gains will be taken before Dec 31st this year. (If Obama Wins)
Obama win and his anti-capitalistic ideas would possibly decimate ALL 401k's in 2013. There would be very little Corporate value growth for stocks to rise.
That means very little additioonal taxes from Capital Gain rate increases.
Just my opinion.
Obama loses out on major taxes from stock sales.
Watch for the WEALTH TAX.
Then every Liberal will start Screaming FOUL! Get the guy out!

Worse, is the fact that these will take place while (potentially) someone else is in office (just like Carter & Clinton did), so that they take the blame when those policies fail. Their idea is to pass as much of this crap as you can, then make the next guy spend his entire time in office fighting to remove all of this garbage so as not to get blamed for it's impending failure (De-regulation, Fair Housing Regulatory). It's a way of ensuring you get invited back by the uneducated masses. This way you can have a success-rate under that of a TV weatherman, and still make it look like someone else's fault.

I am a single parent. What is your problem with that?

Jackie: My question was to Harrison, not you.
My , you sound offended. WHY? Anyway, i'll answer you.

My problem is with all the single young woman having babies with NO money to support them. My problem is understanding all those woman who have no "Respect" for their bodies as they use the justification of "it's my body" , I can do whatever I want. (while expecting others to pay for it.)
My problem is with those young woman who like to open their "playground" bodies while expecting society to support their pills. Using medical reasons to justify their
Pill cost.
So Jackie, if you were married and now a Single Mom, than you are not a problem to me.
But, if you want society (Government) to be your new Husband , then I do have a problem with you.
Now, if we had a leader President that would preach these principles to ALL MEN AND WOMAN, our society would reduce medical bills 50% for all of us.
I happen to believe that society's MORALS, DRUGAbuse (including birthcontrol pills, ALCOHOL abuse, non-attention to their children are MAJOR contributors to ALL of America's Medical problems.
I just don't have enough text room to elaborate.
Hope you are not offended, if you come outside my thoughts.

Hear Ye!
Harrison just called all her woman friends Husbands "Ignorant"

Harrison:
I actually would prefer to "RIDE" for office.
I have no idea what you just wrote?????

Harrison:
This is the Brightest comment you have made.
A liberal mind now admits that a "Majority" of the people are on Food stamps.
HOW TRUE! Now that is why "Obama -USA- is the Food stamp Capital of the World".

Rich Pope you have the Heart of a vicious dog, how dare you demoralize our President this way, you may not like him, but to insult and slander him is as low as you can get, at least at this point for YOU. Rich you need to evaluate your blogs before posting to see if there suitable for viewing.

lol Compared to Romney's wealth, .................Obama IS middle class. Plus Obama has paid closer to middle class tax rates, unlike Mittens.

As someone in the business world for close to 25 years, I am unimpressed by Romney's business background as a hedge fund manager - that is same group of reckless, " geniuses" that mitigated the economic meltdown. Financial gimmickry.

Romneycare is the main accomplishment of his that is relevant to presidential campaign. So ..there you go.

Rich, you better pace yourself. Two more months out. That's a lot of hate-filled nonsense for you to put on here.

Stop getting so angry RD, you're going to have a heart-attack.

Again,
Rich/poor, black/white, na na na. Yes, we know you all can only see people in these little categories. When are you going to start trying to make things better for everyone, instead of trying to convince each of these groups you are on their side, when by definition, you can't be? It's amazing how you all work.

That "financial gimmickry" started with The Fair Housing Regulatory Act, and ended with Fanny & Freddie buying worthless loans, only to pay Franklin Raines nearly a billion dollars of tax-payer dollars for his part in orchestrating it.
(The damage Raines has caused the economy throughout his many years, is only outweighed by the amount of tax-dollars he took to do that damage, yet you likely have no idea who he is. So, look him up & pretend you do.)

Sarah,
That sounds like a new rule. It didn't seem to be in place during the previous administration.
Maybe it's not a new rule, maybe it's just the double-standard that always accompanies those types of hypocritical statements.

Sarah and RDBet are two morons made for each other. The fact of the matter is that the president is part of the 1%. He's wealthy. He doesn't have to get a loan if he wants a new car, because he pays cash for it. He doesn't have to get a mortgage because he can pay cash for a house. He does't have any worries a normal, middle class family has because he's wealthy. And as I pointed out, he will grow even more wealthy with his book deals and speaking engagements. And you know what? There's not a damn thing wrong with it. As far as I know Obama hasn't broken any laws getting to where he is in life. So he's played by the rules and made something of himself. My advice for Sarah and RDBet is to get off your butts, get a job. If you need to, get two or three jobs because the economy is only going to get worse.

Paul Revere that's what I am going to do right now, I have been waiting all week, after that three ring circus the RNC gave. At least we will not have to look at Clint Eastwood talk to an empty chair. Have a good night.

Paul, please...I'll do anything. Please don't make me watch the DNC. Isn't there any other way???

PaulRevere That is absolutely Delusional Statement. Your so fore to the Right hand side of the screen you cant see. Take off those rose colored glass's

Why is it Delusional? Feel free to support your statement, or admit you can't.
How fore right is that? Too fore to be accurate? Explain why please.
See, "rose-colored glass's" are what's worn by those who can't see what this administration is doing by growing government to the size of being able to overrule those who have religious beliefs (all in the name of deficating taxes upon them), especially when it's happening everywhere around them, every day, and thinking that big government will work here, when it's never worked, ever, anywhere in the world. Rose-colored glass's are exactly what's needed to ignore that paying for everyone's abuse of a broken medical system, at a time when the government already spends $41,210 per second they don't have, has a $16 Trillion deficit already this year, not wondering what happens when they can no longer borrow enough to pay for your meds (and we're almost there), AND pretending that it's not attached to the biggest loss of freedom & highest tax-increase in the history of this country.
That's where "rose-colored glass's" are worn. Try taking off yours.

Paul, the did put God and Pro-Israel back into the platform because it was too controversial. It does bother progressives that this country was founded on godly principles. But these are the same people who want free healthcare, free birth-control, free education, free everything! As John Wayne used to say, "Life is hard. And it's harder when you're stupid."

GOD is back!
Thanks Rich.
Maybe it's time for PaulRevere, DEVON and RICH to ride together.

H-mmm-mmm (THE THREE CREATE-A-TEARS)

The Three-Create-a-Tears......ha ha as in tears of laughter. You 3 riding together would be a real hoot.

Might I suggest a non-spillable cup for the sugary red coolaid drinks to reduce spillage on the keyboard. It could help with that sticky shift key issue.

Otherwise keep em comin. Get the readership up here, and before long your satires will nudge this state off it's right-wing ledge.

You do realize that Christians don't hold exclusive rights to religion, right? Our country was founded on religious freedom, not a specific religion. Hence the whole 1st amendment thing. In fact, some of our founders were actually Deists, not Christians. There is no war on religion and there is no war on women. Frankly, your post has a tinge of "unhinged" about it. I highly recommend decaf next time.

Elizabeth:
If you are not "Catholic" , than I obviously was not directing my
comments to you.
I do not need a history of how this country was "christian" based.
Where "God" was used daily in our schools.
No, I don't need to hear from so-called "faith based" christians like you.
Except , that your faith just might be "forced" on all rather than be "free".
It's already being done as I am forced to pay for your child's education as I also pay for my children education. Do you want to defend "freedom of choice for Parents"
in your "christian faith"?

PR - My faith is profoundly private and therefore forced on no one. I don't expect you or anyone else to believe what I do. Just as I would expect the same from anyone else. I, too, pay for education with my taxes, you also don't hold exclusive rights to that privilege either. I stand by my previous post. You sound dangerously close to unhinged.

Thank You some of these here, seem to judge everyone based on their idea of what entitlement is, when in fact those they speak of, are those who are in need. Jesus said what you do for one of these you do for me. I appreciate your response it sums it up.

M. DesHotel,

The only job the federal government has is to protect citizens and enforce the laws.
I'll take care of my family, you take care of yours and so on. If I have anything left-over after that, I'll donate to charity if I see fit. Let me take care of my elderly mother. It isn't the government's job to do that. That is MY job. You take care of your family. That isn't the government's job, that's YOUR job. Do you see how this works?

PR is without a doubt a bubble off.

Its OK these men attack women with their right-wing Ideology, what I said was true their arrogant, and manufacture lies. I suggest you take this up with them.

Sarah, there is no war on women. That's an invention of progressives. Women have every right to make decisions concerning their own bodies as long as it's within the law. Just remember...your daughters will do as you have shown them. So don't get upset when they misbehave.

You have been in Business how many years, I think you got a Business from Dad or Mom, you have to have a good moral compass to run a Business and I just do not see any of that in your statements. You sound more like a GOP member with no one to listen to you, but Freedom of speech is part of OUR Constitution. Best to You.

Ron Paul was a peanut farmer? heh. Just kidding, but I hear ya brother. The powers that be will continue, especially if we keep the discussion in the two party paradigm. I sure hope my thief and liar beats out the other guys'.

SARAH is "RIGHT"
Declares Devon.
Geez Devon ,did you give her "absolution" or "absolutism"

You're on fire today Colbert.

Benedict Arnold just a note not everyone in America is out for a free lunch, because their Political view differ from yours. Maybe you should start yelling to get attention, but wait that's what your doing, now all you have to do is board a plane, and get out! Please don't let us stop you. LOL

Sarah:
When are you going to admit you agree with everything I write.
(you are a closet Conservative- arn't you?)
Let's see--Bradley has 9 freebies---Which one do you really want?

C'mon Paul, Sarah's right.
"not everyone in America is out for a free lunch, because their Political view differ from yours"
She is right, but she is currently disagreeing & arguing with those remaining Americans who don't.
She's right, except in the case where those folks have political views that say that anyone who disagrees with them, must hate this group or that group because they don't want to pay for their abuse of a broken healthcare system, or those whose political views actually do believe in those freebies & believe they should trump freedom of religion, or those whose political beliefs are to continue to put more people ON government aide, and are (as we speak) in a direct daily battle against those who want to help people get OFF government aide, but otherwise she's right.

She's right "not everyone in America is out for a free lunch", just Liberals.

You can also see from her statement the fate SHE chooses for those whose "Political views differ from" hers. I say, if you want to live in a country that pays for your healthcare, there are plenty of options (see you when you get back).

I love these people who scold you for something, then do the exact same thing only a sentence later. Maybe that's why it's so hard to get through to them, how can they see what's going on, when they don't even realize that they are doing the very thing they always accuse people of?

It might remind you of someone else on here, I don't know.

SARAH is "RIGHT"
Declares Devon.
Geez Devon ,did you give her "absolution" or "absolutism"
I didn't even know you performed "extortion" or "excommunication" or "excorcism"
or you know what I mean. Devon , are you a "Priest"?

Sarah,
I appreciate your passion, regardless of how mis-guided.
We all care, it's great that you care, but that's an emotion, let's use our heads a little more so there aren't so many heartaches. Trying to corner the market on caring, while you're crippling everyone isn't how caring works. You're crippling people by turning them into dependents on a system that can't care for them. Here's an example of what you support, whether you realize it or not....
Food Stamp Spending:
June had a record number of participants in the Food Stamp program to the tune of 46.7 million participants in June.
That number has more than doubled in the last 4 years. And your party will tell you that taxing the rich will fix it, when that's exactly how you got here. Those people now on food stamps now, used to have careers, now they are lucky to have a job. (Job & Career aren't the same thing)
$75.7 Billion dollars a year is now the expenditure.
You have cared these people out of jobs, you have cared their former employers overseas, you have cared these people out of being able to provide for themselves while you feel good about taking care of them. But, they, the people you claim to be helping, are now dependents & FORMER contributors into a system with fewer & fewer contributors & more & more dependents.

You agree with taking the pond, yet want to pat yourself on the back for giving these people a fish.
See, stupid people care too. As for me, I don't want them in charge anymore.

PS - I hear Holder is pretty good at keeping guns out of the hands of criminals....

You just said you stood for equal-rights, then you picked a segregated group to help. Let's help everybody. Those of us who aren't bigots & are able to see people without the little categories have already started trying to help everybody. But all of those people who just want to segregate us, (you) are fighting it. You say "believe in an economy that entitles all to flourish and not just a select few" but you want to put people on food stamps instead of back to work. People can't buy things without jobs. Those that give jobs can't hire if people can't buy, especially when they also have to deal with the highest corporate tax-rate in the world (as of April), 10 new regulations a day along with the expenses that come with those regulations AND those they already had. The top 10% of incomes carry over 70% of the tax burden in this country, that's pulling your weight even on a Democrat's scale.
Look, the first 4 things Hitler did, were to take over the healthcare system, disarm the citizens, take-over banking & loans, as well as involve the government int the auto industry. We're at 3 out of 4 with Obama (& you support the 4th even though guns prevent 2.7 - 3.1 million crimes per year & are used to commit 130,000 - 150,000 crimes per year. Therefore you SUPPORT increasing the crime rate immensely. Not at all a smart (or caring) considering that ratio runs anywhere from 18:1 to 24:1.
See, it's great to care, but Lenny cared about his mouse too. We know how that turned out.

PS - The "do-gooders" in the 1930's Germany were also convinced the that the rich owed more of their wealth to their nation, that's when things got ugly. We aren't there yet, but how many times have you, yourself, said that the rich need to cover more of the tax-burden? Remember that too, "tax-burden", not hiring the poor, not providing resources & teaching the hungry how to farm, providing them with a cure for something, or "building ponds" literally or figuratively. it means paying the government. You think they should pay the government to provide food stamps instead.
Same with healthcare. You want everyone to have it, so you decided that choosing the most expensive way possible to provide it is the way to go. We could all provide our own healthcare a WHOLE LOT cheaper than sending our money through a wasteful middleman first. You also seem to think that an entity $16 trillion in debt (just this year), spending $41,210 per second they don't have, can possibly somehow magically pull that off? You also seem to enjoy the idea of leaving your grandkids without healthcare or a job to pay their ENORMOUS debt that this administration is creating for them. Somebody is going to have to pay it after you've hauled-away the rich & took all of their money. That's what you are pulling for.
You can want real bad to go to the store, but driving down the wrong road in the wrong direction won't likely get you there, but you're OK with betting all of our futures on it working this time.

Yeah, sorry, I didn't mean to cloud all of the personal attacks & uninformed hating with facts & examples.
Someone has to educate you tools other than SNL, Comedy Central, & Seth MacFarlane.

ROCKO! Let me Guess--
You are 1) An Educator wth massive pensions Paid by the struggling workers of America. 2) A Govt contractor 3) A govt contractor s employee
or 4) You receive Govt Grant money or 5) your company receives
"GOVT SUPPORT". or a Retiree getting Govt pensions.

Those degrees you hold are certainly not in "Business"

Because everything you just wrote reveals your ignorance , not intelligence of how our American business system operates.

You may be doing better than 4 years ago ----BUT THE COUNTRY IS NOT.

What part of 8% unemployment, or people accepting back to work re-employment at 25% less pay than originally received ,do you not understand.
All of us having to pay higher medical insurance premiums starting 2013 to pay for the "real" freeloaders. The real freeloaders are those who DO NOT PAY ANY MEDICAL INSURANCE TODAY.
They claim unaffordability, I would ask--How do you know that?
So you are a fraud in what you claim to know.
You are obviously not interested in AMERICA'S PLIGHT----ONLY THE SELFISH "YOU". You are not interested in the truth because somehow you are Guilty of making more in a period of time when Millions of American's cannot afford their "real estate taxes" to pay for a Government that is making "SLAVES" out of those working people to support the non-working in the name of "COMPASSION and EDUCATION".
You are a disgrace in everything you spew.
You sir , must come from another Country or planet.

The broken economy started with Clinton whether you like it or not. Fair Housing Regulatory Act nearly crashed the economy when Carter tried it, then Clinton reinstituted it even moreso, crashing banks, crashing the housing market (from which all homeowners are still suffering), FORCING banks to loan over a trillion dollars to people who couldn't pay, then buying those worthless loans a minimum of TWICE with taxpayer dollars.
The practice of leaving a mess for someone else to clean-up (your grandchildren in this case), has become the only real "staple" of the Democratic Party.
Just like Clinton, this President is doing the same thing with all of the new taxes that will go into effect when (potentially) someone else will be blamed for them when they fail, or they will have to spend all of their time undoing them.
It's unfortunate, but you don't have even the slightest understanding of how we got in this economic situation.
Over-taxing & over-regulating; basically chasing jobs either out of business, or out of the country, hasn't helped those people you claim to be "saving", it's crippled them, and has also managed to add 3% more of the population into that "needy" (Democrat voter-pool) category.

"A government which robs Peter to pay Paul can always depend on the support of Paul."
- George Bernard Shaw

As for the Tea-Party comments, why is it you don't believe the government should be accountable with YOUR money?
Why is it ok to CRIMINALLY ignore passing a budget?

Hey Mr. Woonsocket - they've got it covered here already with that crazy marxist agenda shtuff. No one's mentioned Obama's birth certificate in awhile, so if you want to go for that.

Obama's Birth Certificate was mentioned in the news this very day.
So, once again, guess who doesn't have a clue what he's talking about, and simply resorts to name-calling & attributing his anger, hatred & insanity to others.

Ok, I'll guess who - you are referring to yourself. Recognizing that you have a problem is a start.

Thank you for another fact-laden intelligent statement.
Your guess was wrong, but that's no surprise, why break your streak.

Only the "uninformed" would accept this street speech.
Make yourself a hero to Liberalism, will you ?
How will Veterans lose?
Did you read the Romney Budget? NY times "brought it ALL to light". Yet it's still "hidden in the budget".
It's "Complicated" ? "so the Democrats have left it alone.

You know what , you just admitted that Democrats do not know how to deal with Complicated issues.
That is why This President and Joe Biden will not discuss the complicated Financial issues to their constituents. They and the NY times are the same people.
Class warfare is much simpler to understand.
Barack Obama should not win Missouri , because we are a long way from NY mentality.

Give me an example of "anger" you've found from any tea-party rallies.
I think you have the Tea-Party mixed-up with Occupy.
But then again, I don't expect you to bring any facts to the table, just personal attacks on those who do their homework, cut & paste or not.
I prefer people cutting & pasting facts, than just responding to facts with name-calling & asinine assertions.
Actually, it might be you who is revolutionizing stupidity.
My challenge to you is to bring some substance from time to time, even though we all know you won't. A point you will undoubtedly prove with another baseless, angry, personal attack, void of facts or substance.

Get The Facts The Tea Party are Extremist and Dangerous To America. See Link Below> Some on this board try to push there way on others, and force their agenda, tea-party Ideology is Delusional, and just like the tea-party radicals you represent, and or pretend to represent its wrong, here is some real facts, and if maybe you read the links and study the facts, you might gain better insight to the facts.

Sara. I went ahead and checked your links before commenting on your statement, only to find the first was an editorial, not facts. And two are the same page Repubs claiming Tea Party. And the other one, some guys opinion. The tea party is for smaller accountable government, you know, spending, bailouts, constitution. But what bothers me is the use of "radical" and "extremist". Doesn't the govt and media do enough fear mongering? In an age when the Executive (and future) can detain or assassinate Americans (NDAA), i think its irresponsible to throw around that language. I'm not talking PC, I'm talking about labeling any group of Americans critical of government, in the same light as radical islamist, or the like. Freedom of speech, I get it. But it is hard to deny when the Federal watch list grows and grows with American citizens... well for me, THAT scares me. For you?...probably makes you feel safer.

"Congress has the lowest rating ever". Yes, and it is filled with Republicans AND Democrats. Both parties are guilty of failing the public.

"Congress has the lowest rating ever"
First, that's based on public opinion; polls.
You are the perfect example of a public that is uninformed. You always hear Congress this, Congress that, from a HEAVILY biased media. Those are opinions based on the same ignorance you have bought into & continue to spew as if you knew what you were talking about.
Are you aware that Congress has passed over 250+ bills (as of Feb) that are sitting dormant on the floor of Senate? No. You didn't. Are you aware that some of those bills are budgets? How could you be? Are you aware that it is a CRIME for the Senate to not pass a budget & that the CRIMINALS in the Senate haven't even addressed it in over 4 years? No. Of course you didn't know.
See, we already know the crap you are fed, it's you that doesn't know that the truth is different than what you hear from the media. That's why you have to actually do some homework that is based on fact, not emotion (I thought we already addressed this).
You always hear "the Republicans won't work across the aisle", well here's proof that lie is 180 degrees wrong.
You also said "Republicans can not stand to be called out for their failures", yet you are totally oblivious to the Democrats' failures & wouldn't address them if you did. You'd just pretend like they aren't there.
Fair Housing Regulatory, Insider Trading, Unemployment, Budget, ... pages worth, but you would just act like they aren't there.
Give ONE example of "radical" Tea-Party behavior.

“The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But under the name of Liberalism, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program until one day America will be a socialist nation without knowing how it happened.”
- Norman Thomas
Socialist Party presidential candidate in 1940, 1944 & 1948.

Obama didn't kill Osama Bin Laden. He was even opposed to going after him in the first place, now he's got you tools calling him a hero. PLUS, nearly jeopardized the operation by giving away military secrets.
He didn't end the war, it was over, as a matter of fact, he started another one in Afghanistan.
The top 4 Al Qaeda leaders were dead before he even became President.
You haven't gotten a single campaign promise from the man. You got 53% more unemployment though, hang you hat on that.
By your logic, he must've also caused the recent Embassy Attacks, since he's so responsible for everything.
You obviously have no use for truth, you seem to prefer erroneous campaign claims, all lacking any facts to back them up.

Peter Bergen or Devon Seddon, who to believe?

Bergen: "pile of poppycock served up with heaps of hogwash"

Seddon: "this is a 'Christian Nation'"
