Comments on: Boehner: Government Needs To Tighten Its Belt

[wvu74621]

The Democrats want to loosen your belts so that your pants fall down and leave you standing there wondering what happened, all at the same time snaking your walletts out of your pants pocket and giving you a wet willie.

More like playing the way the Band kept playing on the deck of the Titanic as it went down!

If Boehner is serious he would first take steps to put Congress on a fiscal diet and second he would put forth a detailed plan as an alternative to the plan put forth by Obama.

That's the problem, they have no plan other than the same one that took us INTO this mess to begin with.

Wasn't THIS what Herbert Hoover did when he was confronted with the same thing? Unless my History Book is wrong that is EXACTLY what Hoover did in 1930 and we all know what a great success that was. We know how to get out of this and we are dead on course to do just that. Now lets just be a LITTLE Patient here, after all the New President hasn't even been in office a full two months yet!! We're going to be fine and the Democrats are used to coming along and cleaning up the mess left by greedy Right Wing Nut Cases.

All across the US, millions of struggling American families are paying profoundly to survive, and tightening belts trying to use e-mail protocol such as Microsoft's Outlook Express. These entrepreneurs are actually receiving electronic mailings from clients everywhere, all over the world. Because scrupulous Agency is actually intercepting and blocking e-mails, free communication over the Internet is not possible, like it was also not possible for minority and majority parties to make any money on the Internet. "We do not think that Microsoft is totally the culprit here," says a current executive at Gigglygoo, Incoporated, a maker of highly trigonometrical, Copyright integral Data Structures, and/or Inverse Algorithmic - Microbiological Triangulation Probability, who's company filed for Bankruptcy during a prior administrations technological industrialization. Also stating "scrupulous Agency is not allowing the free communications in order to nourish a business culture via e-mail, and they are intercepting electronic mail we believe we are getting from all over the world." In that sense, e-mail when it is working is less for profit and non profit, and also the fact that computers in which, besides fundamentally the spending, leading by example at least don't understand, are hurting economic hopes for the Americans people, like Limbaugh's from everyplace. Plus also think of all the vigor in dating from everyplace youthful kids and grandkids probably could have had. [e-mail]

Why don't you ask the Democrats that controlled congress for the last 2 1/2 years. They sure loved GB after 9/11. The Dems could'nt line up fast enough to sign the Patriot Act. Dems/Libs put some of the blame where it belongs on the Dems, they are the ones that let you down. GB had to have congressional approval for many of his decisions and the Democrat controlled Congress was more than willing to agree with him. I am glad GB is gone, but he has been replaced by someone far worse, we are only beginning to see how he is leading us to failure.

You really don't think much for yourself do you? I sense you listen to a lot of the Radical Right Propaganda and just assume everyone else will buy into it. The recession STARTED 15 months ago. Now simple math tells you it is flat out IMPOSSIBLE to blame this economic meltdown on Democrats even if they could have convinced the Republican's not to go back to the failed Supply Side Economics. Like most on the Right you have only attacks but nothing to replace the worst economic policy in US History. I'd suggest you take a look at all those talking heads you listen to and ask yourself one question. When has Supply Side Economics worked, ONCE!

This guy is an idiotic hypocrite. What was he doing during the flagrant spending of the Bush years? Did he endorse a war for which no money was budgeted? The GOP is full of useless lying hypocrites like Boehner.

Boehner said the Republican plan "costs half as much as the president?s proposal and would have created twice as many jobs.

"Their budget spends too much, it taxes too much and it borrows too much from our kids and grandkids," he said.

Is Class Warfare Upon Us ?

I pledge allegiance
to the Flag
of the United States
of America,
and to the Republic
for which it stands:
one Nation
under God,
indivisible,
with Liberty
and Justice for all.

Houses are worth about half their former value for the first time in history.
No one. No one can find a job.
Republicans are bent on busting unions and social security.
The stock market has no controls to prevent speculators and short sellers making hash out of 401k plans.
We have fake wars costing ten billion per month.
Our country is printing trillions for stimulus.
All remaining jobs are fleeing to off shore.
The elite rich are putting their money off shore.
There is no bottom to the downward spiral trickle down has put us in.
The republicans spit at bi partisanship.
Rush Limpball is spreading propaganda for the downfall of the United States with the support of a radio station and support from the elite rich.
Borrowing is being touted to those with no means to repay.
Fort Knox vaults secures nothing but cobwebs.

Those foaming at the mouth for a buck, Elite lobbyist kissing, religion manipulating, Corporate puppet, superior minded republicans should all be behind bars.

The LORD is my shepherd; there is nothing I lack.
In green pastures you let me graze; to safe waters you lead me;
you restore my strength. You guide me along the right path for the sake of your name.
Even when I walk through a dark valley, I fear no harm for you are at my side; your rod and staff give me courage.
You set a table before me as my enemies watch; You anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows.
Only goodness and love will pursue me all the days of my life; I will dwell in the house of the LORD for years to come.

George W. Bush single-handedly destroyed the Republican party. It will never recover. Boner continues playing to a shrinking audience like a borscht-belt comic in the Catskills. Welcome to irrelevance, you clown!!
