Things that non-'crats love about 'crats

But I don't have a strong opinion regarding marijuana other than it should be treated the same as alcohol. I do have a strong opinion regarding hypocrisy, though.

Are you insinuating that the federal cases out of California that are being prosecuted are examples of hypocrisy?

Seriously, race is the last thing on my mind. Economy = crap. Foreign affairs = crap. This healthcare crap = crap.

I mean, I guess tell me the positives and plz don't blame previous presidents for his failures. He's had 6 years. I've heard enough.

He's got a pretty salty bracket tho.

You can't just say those things without providing evidence.  Here's the reality:

The stock market is at an all-time high.  Consumer demand is at its highest level since the recession.  The housing market has improved.  The unemployment rate is at its lowest point in years.  We have essentially ended the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.  The new healthcare law is working really well (aside from some of the exchanges).  Millions of people who couldn't afford health insurance before the ACA are now covered.  We have emissions standards for new vehicles.  States are legalizing gay marriage and recreational marijuana.  I mean, these are all just off the top of my head.  There's literally nothing that is worse than it was before Obama was elected President.

 

Devotion to absurd talking points

I like how the things that make Obama so great he literally has not rough ridin' control over or has actually implemented policies to inhibit (the stock market, pffft).  The economy is crap and this "recovery" has been measurably constrained by his asinine domestic policy. Foreign policy is an unmitigated disaster.

Obama, champion of oil and gas production, corporate profits and home ownership!  The labor market is in a systemic comma because of the ACA and the only difference in the health insurance market is that some people got insurance through some broke ass exchange instead of via medicaid. 

If stock prices and property values represent the economy and the quality of president, then GWB circa 2006 was the greatest president ever by a million miles.

Obama is the worst of any president in our lifetime. I'll let you guys debate whether he's worse than Rutherford Hayes or William Harrison. We do have a crap load more poor people though,  so he's help build out the dem base, if you think that's good.

Also emission standards belong to Bush, one of his dumber policies.

Con'crats, Obama...

Make sure to short the market and liquidate your real estate holdings before you cast that ballot!

Clearly you're blinded by your hatred of white people and hetero people. Come back when you have facts (preferable graphs, charts and tables), otherwise you're just living in a world of lies and misinformation.

[p1k3]

remember not to bring up the labor participation rate. 'tards hate that one.

You know times are tough in libtardland when corporate profits is the first thing they go to in support of their listless leader.  Those evil soleless beings that ruin main street, ship jobs overseas, pump green house gases into the atmosphere, and pay CEOs millions and their own employees minimum wage. They aren't even people! Those corporations and the value of their stock on a "shadow market" that only fat cats can play, is their first source of refuge. LOL

A stock market run-up and period of strong corporate earnings was a no go for Libs during the previous administration.  Spewing spittle they would exclaim that it wasn't helping anybody but the rich.

Now, under the current regime, the wealth gap is accelerating, minorities face their worst unemployment in years, and there's more people on the receiving end of gov't largesse than pay into the coffers to provide the gov't largesse . . . and the people paying into the gov't coffers are paying into it at a record pace, and it's still no where close to being enough.

[Ghost of Stan Parrish]

So, I guess the upshot of this thread is there's actually nothing Republicans can say nice about Democrats.

I honestly have no recollection of this happening, but to be fair, I really wasn't paying much attention.

This is adorable. Dads going to be pissed tho, when he finds out he can't live off the government anymore and has to go back to work.

Now post a chart listing what party controlled Congress during those years.  You know Congress, aka the guardians of the nations purse strings.

Sadly, during the Clinton years, while the mythical "surplus" was being run, the national debt increased every single year.

But we've had this discussion before, and the billions in IOU's that went into the "lockboxes" that were used to create the "surplus" are immaterial to some on here.   Even leading Democrats were saying the "surplus" was a mirage.
