Is the GOP intentionally preventing a recovery?

[Toddsterpatriot]

Are you kidding me...they passed numerous bills for jobs...well, they passed uh, 150 bills creating jobs...whats that now?...they passed NONE...my bad.

Sorry, the GOP could care less about jobs even though they ran on job creations. They have the balls to say raising taxes on the top 1% will kill jobs? Really? What the fuck do they even know about job creations?

It's difficult to do when the Marxists control the Senate and the White House. But no worries, that will change in '12.

Can you name something they even attempted to pass that would create jobs? Just one thing please. No? Didnt think so.

Oh yeah, everything will change in 12.

Ryan's budget.

Some people are saying no, see the 'argument' against, here:

Schumer's conspiracy theory: GOP sabotaging recovery | David Freddoso | Beltway Confidential | Washington Examiner

The evidence suggests Schumer's on to something. The House of Representatives has offered no debate on the issue of unemployment and has passed only 18 bills since taking control in January. 15 of those bills were passed to name federal buildings after someone. This do-nothing congress sees no urgency as millions of Americans are out of work, work one or two or three part time jobs simply to pay rent or the morgage on a home underwater.

The GOP leadership in both houses of congress has opposed all efforts by the president, and even turned down an offer by President Obama to reduce the payroll tax for businees. It seems ideology is only an excuse, the real reason is their lust for power.

They aren't. The Democrats are demanding more spending...more of the same that got us here...and the Republicans are the responsible ones.

Statist Democrats stonewall...and BLAME others...typical horseshit from the left.

 

[bodecea]

Yes.

Next question.

How?

They have passed nothing that would benefit the economy or grow and create jobs. In light of that, claiming they are doing it on purpose does make sense, since the other option is they are completely incompetent.

Responsible or Irresponsible.

That's "conservative". Afraid of change. Why do you think they are anti education. Anti science. Anti innovation. Afraid of ideas.

They use fear mongering because they are all scared. They have always been scared people. They live afraid and die afraid.

A cornered dog attacks. Republicans and conservatives are cornered by fear. That's why they only know attack and have only one policy, cut taxes for the rich.

Most of your posts are just classic. Thanks so much for the laughs.

You're right. "Truth" can be "filled with mirth".

Dean.....believe me when i say this......your pretty dam weird too....your complete Obsession with all things Republican,how they are responsible for every thing negative that happens anywhere,and i do mean anywhere.......makes you not only a little weird....but a little scary too..........your a fucking nut case....

Do you also say this to the GOPers on this board? Just look at the comment right below yours and maybe you can understand why we are fighting back. I realize I shouldn't presume to speak for Dean, so lets just say it is why I have been trying to show how truly awful the right has been.

if you have been here longer than the 5 minutes you have been on this Board you would know that this is Franks typical nonsensical remarks......you would also know that Dean is obsessed with Republicans....and has been told this by a few "Liberals" here.....and i think i have already said this to you once before when you had like 50 posts......will i have to say it again when you get 500 posts in?.....

lib·er·al (lbr-l, lbrl)
adj.
1.
a. Not limited to or by established, traditional, orthodox, or authoritarian attitudes, views, or dogmas; free from bigotry.
b. Favoring proposals for reform, open to new ideas for progress, and tolerant of the ideas and behavior of others; broad-minded.
c. Of, relating to, or characteristic of liberalism.
d. Liberal Of, designating, or characteristic of a political party founded on or associated with principles of social and political liberalism, especially in Great Britain, Canada, and the United States.​

If we're going by dictionary definitions, progressives aren't liberals.

Looks about right to me. The Democratic Party is a coalition party. To belong, you have to be "broad minded" and "tolerant of the ideas and behavior of others". No one, not even Republicans, would suggest that conservatives or Republicans are "broad minded" and "tolerant of the ideas and behavior of others".

Just because Democrats and liberals don't like the mean spirited ideas of the Republican Party doesn't mean they are narrow minded. You can reject a bad idea and not be narrow minded. Tax cuts for people with private jets, cutting medical benefits of seniors, subsidies for oil companies, these are just plain "bad" ideas. Even the most broad minded can't embrace them.

Ryans budget? Really?

Rep. Ryan’s House GOP Budget Plan

Federal Government Would Collect $2 Trillion Less Over a Decade
and Yet Require Bottom 90 Percent to Pay Higher Taxes
Congressman Paul Ryan (R-WI), the ranking Republican on the House Budget Committee,

The federal government would collect $183 billion less in 2011 and more than $2 trillion
less over a decade than it would if Congress adopted President Obama’s tax proposals.

􀂃 Federal taxes would be lower for the richest ten percent, and higher for all other income
groups, than they would be if President Obama’s proposals were enacted.

􀂃 The bottom 80 percent of taxpayers would pay about $1,700 more, on average, than they
would if President Obama’s proposals were enacted.

􀂃 The richest one percent would pay about $211,300 less on average than they would if
President Obama’s proposals were enacted.

􀂃 The poorest 20 percent would pay 12.3 percent of their income more than what they
would pay under the President’s proposal, while the richest one percent would pay 15
percent of their income less than they would pay under the President’s proposal.
