with this thread, the obamacare thread, the facebook thread and just listening to dumbasses talk at the office today has been a FANTASTIC day to sit up on my moderate throne and smuggly look down at everyone offering my fake pity.

Steve, as a Moderate, can you just tell us how much the federal government should spend? Appreciate your guidance.
I've said it before and I'll say it again, K-State fans could have beheaded the entire KU team at midcourt, and K-State fans would be celebrating it this morning.  They are the ISIS of Big 12 fanbases.

Funny, you know what I think is crazy? How about doubling the national debt by $10 trillion over 8 years, while passing a massive new entitlement, pushing for amnesty to put millions more people on said entitlement, and never even passing a budget. Yeah, that seems pretty rough ridin' crazy to me. But to each his own....

Both sides are pretty worthless.  Neither know how to talk to each other anymore.  I mean, if you can't even listen to another's opinion, you certainly will miss opportunities to compromise, which is what this nation needs.  Middle ground legislation for middle ground ppl.  The problem is that moderation and middle ground isn't good news or radio discussion topics to ppl that like to be angry or entertained.

The secondary problem, which is what my other post was about, is that the actions we have as ppl to change is to throw out one Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!) only to usher in another Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!) that will be willingly led to the same level of inaction and corruption as the last Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!) because the party that provides for them tells them how it's going to be.  This is why I said that sanity is not well backed or funded these days.  Its en vogue to be extremely stubborn these days.

Amen, brother. Look, the Dems want to spend more, the Pubs want to spend less. Let's just compromise and spend the same as we're doing now! Problem solved and nobody gets their feelings hurt!

Quit being stupid.  That is part of the problem.

It's the entire problem.

So the Dems don't want to spend more? Lets see...
- March 2013: Latest Dem budget proposal would increase spending 62% over next decade
- September 2013: Pelosi says "The cupboard is bare, there's no more cuts to make."

Seems like they want to spend more.

K-S-U, would you say that the problems we have are more related to the spending or the deficits?

Does anyone actually think $4 trillion is about the right amount of spending for our federal government.  I mean, that's a ridiculous number, right?

I'm not sure I understand your question. The deficits add to the national debt. The deficits are simply a function of revenue versus expenses. Revenue doesn't seem to be a problem. We are overspending.

Perhaps K-S-U is mistaking "moderate" for "extreme right wing teabagger."

I'll never forget where I was the day they turned off the cameras to cute adorable Pandas. Thanks, Obama.

I feel like we need to recognize how great (whether intended or not) this OP is.

I mean, a federally funded panda cam??  Funding cuts shutting it down???

That's pretty modtard stuff right there. :lol: :lol:

National landmarks need to be protected to some extent. unfettered access means they will be ruined by some idiot.
