A policy that purported to help the economy by intentionally and gratuitously destroying billions of dollars in wealth, in the form of serviceable automobiles. Such a policy could only have been born either of an extraordinary degree of ignorance, or else a willful, malicious desire to cause harm to the very economy that it purported to be intended to help.

Yup, the GOP wasn't horrible, until Nixon. Now they're the Southern conservative, bs propaganda, pander to the greedy idiot megarich, Reaganist party, dupe..
 
So the great GOP contribution is a huge pile of BULLSHYTTE....lol

You were responding to guano, whose name literally refers to bird or bat excrement, in a thread started by SYTFE, whose name also sounds an awful lot like a common slang term for excrement. I guess the symbolic meaning is clear, here, that extreme left wrong-wing ideology is shit.
RW "logic" lol. After 30 years of Voodoo: worst min. wage, work conditions, illegal work safeguards, vacations, work week, college costs, rich/poor gap, upward social mobility, % homeless and in prison EVAH, and in the modern world!!
 
Jesus Christ! This is fucking PATHETIC!!!

Can't you stupid rubes name ONE goddamn good thing to come from Republican policy? Do Republicans do ANYTHING good at all for the country?

Your refusal to see the piles of evidence presented to you does not, in the least, invalidate any of that evidence.

LOL @ "piles" of evidence.
 
we freed the slaves

That's pretty much it.

Nothing more to see here.

SYTFE what were you thinking?

Cash for Clunkers was a horrendous failure. Fraud was rampant, excellent used cars were junked forcing the price of all used cars up. That forced buyers who could not afford a new car to pay more for a car in worse condition than they could have afforded previously.

I hope you haven't forgotten that the Dow climbed from 7,949.09 when Obama took office, after the previous Republican "ideas" obliterated the stock market, and took it to just under 20,000 his last day in office.

Was waiting for that partisan claim to be made by some fully fanatical lying SOB...

MOST of the past 2 year gain in the Dow came AFTER the night of the Trump win.. Obama had nothing to do with the last 1400 points.

ANY statistic on the performance of the DOW during Obama's term that calculates "to his last day in office" -- is a misrepresentation of the REALITY that on Election night -- the Dow was about 1500 points CLOSER to 18,500 than it was to 20,000.. And that ALL of that gain was correction for the UNexpected election victory.

Obama had NOTHING to do that last 1500 points.
