A fantastic tantrum.

And with that Bama strode out of the room with his head held high and his feet held higher.....

His feet were pinned behind his ears...

For those of you actually contemplating putting the GOPP back in power?

First, kiss what's left of what's good in America goodbye.  Second,
deny that you had any part in America's destruction.  Last, remain clueless
as long as you breathe and hope the rest of us save you from yourselves.

Beau, how's that hope and change shit with the DIMS working out for you?

You all touched on some very good points. I think in addition we should once and for all open up drilling. Don't let the democrats force us to purchase oil from our enemies.I'm tired of the Obama's lending money to other countries petroleum industry.The idea that wind and solar, industries that have to be heavily subsidized by the government, are  remotely a viable alternative is ludicrous.Yes, we do need to think ahead to the future, but cutting our energy supplies will only raise costs across the board. And once again the middle class will pick up the tab.This behavior manipulation by elitists has got to stop.

Thanks Buddy, Gas and utility prises are my pet peeve. You own your own service to the customers door type of business so you can relate. When you have over half a dozen vans to fill it really effects your bottom line. I'm so sick of the governments manipulation of the oil industry to line their own pockets. They vilify a much needed product that is the life's blood of this country, and they make over ten times the profit for doing absolutely nothing. The regulatory fees in the price of a gallon of gas from the well head to the consumer is staggering.The uncertainty of not only this issue, but many mentioned will prevent me from hiring the extra crew next year. And I'm just one tiny privately owned business.I pray the Nov, elections put an end to this nonsense. This socialist Marxist has got to be stopped.

Better than the alternative, but not well enough. 
The corporatist Democrats stick a knife in the necks of the true Progressives
who are the heart and soul of the party every chance they get.  Still, most any step
toward progress is better than a return to the race to the bottom downward spiral
of the past thirty years.  We are about to find that out (again) though,
as too many Americans aren't really smart enough to be trusted with self-governance.
Two steps forward is seemingly always followed by at least one step back.
Still, I'm not packing my bags for the Continent just yet.  Maybe in 2013, but not yet.

Have you tried working?

Why is it America always rebel against the Progressive agenda whenever it is on display?

That is always my question; what conservative policy has ever hurt this country?

1. Put on the brakes on ALL SPENDING

2. Repeal health care

3. Address the problem with illegals COMPETENTLY, begin with a moratorium on ALL IMMIGRATION LAWS AND POLICY. This is a state security issue and should be bi partisan but of course the Dem are counting o the future "illegal" vote so lets foil 'em.

4. Energy, that means drilling, refining and developing new sources.

Beau, I really hate to shatter your little reverie here, but I must ask, exactly when did the Party of Jefferson, become the party of progressives?

Quote from: bama_beau_redux on October 03, 2010, 07:10:30 PM
Other than genocide and slavery and segregation and Jim Crow and child labor
and second or lower class citizenship status for women, gays, lesbians, Blacks,
native Americans, Hispanics, Asians and the handicapped?


How about deregulating the S&L's?Or Wall Street?  Or the fossil fuel industries?  How about doing away with Social Security?
Or Medicare?  How about tax laws that favor the rich and powerful and reward wealth over work?
Just about everything you pseudeconservatives scream for (or ever have) has been bad for America.

Right, thats why we were and probably still are the most powerful nation in the world, but hang on, we won't be for long then you'll be happy I suppose.
