This is Clinton News Network...for all your liberal views on politics.

Personally I am a political atheist. Both Republicants and Dumbocrats aren't worth the suits they wear but at least the Republicants have made an attempt to mitigate the financial bleeding and bring some fiscal discipline back to our bloated, wasteful, federal governmental.

870+ days since a federal budget has been passed.

For the first two years of a Dumbocrat controlled House, Senate, and Executive branch, the Socialists failed to propose a budget let alone pass a budget. But in less than six months, a Republicant controlled House has put forward at least 3 budgets.

Glad to hear Cut, Cap, and Balance is moving to the Senate. Now Barack and the Dumbocrat controlled Senate can take the fall for their continued demagoguery and political scare tactics.

If anyone thinks that Bush is still to blame for the deficit and the Democrats have the American citizens best interest in mind, they are complete morons.

Starting a decades long war under false pretenses doesnt count towards adding to the deceit?

Blame Wall street for the depression; blame 20 years of failed domestic policies brought by the Senate...and the lazy American.

Republicants and Dumbocrats alike voted for the current conflagration in the Middle East, it did take an act of Congress to put us in this situation. Bush ultimately takes the hit for it because he was the Commander in Chief at the time, just as Obama is/will take the hit for the current military intervention in Libya.

...and the lazy American.

Ahh yes, the lazy American...cousin to the ugly American.

^ my question is why did Bush enhance it a little?

No, Republicants and Dumbocrats bi-partisan support of the war is proof enough of that. The notion that Bush sold snake oil to get Dumbocrats support is ludicrous.

The case against Saddam, the Axis of Evil, and Al-Qaeda started being built at the end of the Cold War.

No relation. You need to read the book, not just the title. The "Ugly American" was the good guy.

And CCB passed in the House. Any bets on whether it will pass in the Senate?

 

[dogman_1234]

^ so, will they get the Gang of Six bill in then?

 

[dogman_1234]

^ Hope you like a depression then...

Earlier this year, it was military paychecks. Now it is Social Security. Scare tactics, indeed.

And if we had an actual Social Security Trust Fund instead of a pile of IOU's from the general revenue fund, we wouldn't be having this particular problem.
