True, but on several occasions senate democrats have voted unanimously to overturn citizens united and get big money out of politics, while republican senators have voted unanimously to keep it. So while it's true that all are beholden to the big money contributors, only 1 side is actively...

I don't like it, because it ****** people who couldn't give a **** to go and vote. Sure, they can cast a blank ballot, but they can also vote whatever racist uncle ed tells them to if they're not smart. As frustrating as it is in the USA to watch lazy people sit back and not vote while all the...

I sure do love the way you come in here and talk down to everyone while spouting your talking points, like you have the gospel and anyone who disagrees just hasn't seen the light yet. You're just a fox news host wannabe. The recovery and reinvestment act added a lot less to the debt and did a...

The same old republican bs arguments that have been proven wrong again and again. Since the ACA went into effect, full time work is up, and part time work is down, and has been slowly but steadily dropping since it's peak during the recession. Do you know what would increase part time work...

Saw this today, thought it was a good eye opener, and it kinda tears down the argument that people like Brown and Garner are responsible for their own deaths because if you cooperate with the police you'll be fine 100% of the time. "Reuters interviewed 25 African American male officers on the...

Agreed, as far as any ongoing arguments regarding Michael Brown or Eric Garner are concerned, this doesn't change anything, nor does it vindicate or undermine the case of either side. It was a bullshit act committed by a disturbed individual just looking for an excuse.

Chu said that in 2008 when he was was in charge of the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory in California, before he was the energy secretary and before Obama was even elected. He also said in April 2009 that he was against any steps that would raise the price of gasoline. And when Obama said...

Probably, because he never said that, or anything like it. http://www.factcheck.org/2012/03/obama-wanted-higher-gasoline-prices/

The entire topic of this thread was republicans having total control of the government for 24 years, and I'm not allowed to mention republicans?

America can't afford 24 years of total Republican control. We can't afford the republicans we have now.

I know I said this in the other thread, but it bears repeating, 43 *** homicides and 188 *** deaths TOTAL in 2012, and that was a 5 year high. Most Australians would like to stick with numbers like that than have a *** death rate comparable to America's in the name of "protecting" themselves...

What happened in Oz was bad, but nobody would call it one of the "most heinous *** crimes." In 2012 ******* involving guns reached a 5 year high at 40 total for the year. The US beats that in a couple of hours. Strict *** controls were introduced by a right wing government with a rural voting...

Funny how quiet the board's teatards are over this. Kinda like the low gas prices at the moment. When gas was up, they all blamed Obama, even though the president has absolutely no control over gas prices, but now that it's down where is his pat on the back? Since day 1 he's gotten the blame for...

Hopefully this will be different, since it was their own committee. Maybe the guys from that committee can go directly onto investigating the immigration order, and spend the next few years and millions of our tax dollars learning what everybody else already knows about that?

Did you make a conscious decision to come on here tonight and post the stupidest **** you could come up with? Constitutional lawyers from both sides agree that he's within his rights, but of course you know better. This isn't a slap in anybody's face, it's a president finally doing what the...

Oh yeah, if there's one thing we can count on from the right, it's excessive cooperation with the president so they don't look bad. Try reality some time, dipshit.

I support this too. This is the Obama we've been wanting to see ever since it became clear that the republicans are never going to do anything to help this country.

Recently the senate voted to overturn the citizens united decision. Every single senate democrat voted to overturn, every single senate republican voted to keep it. Yes, members of both parties are compelled to work for campaign finance, and yes, this country should be deeply ashamed that...

There is no left in America. There's crazy idiot right (that's you), and closer to middle of the road right (that's US democrats).

How is a government crackdown on a soup kitchen "leftist"? And no, no other country would pass this kind of crap, except maybe North Korea. The USA is an extremely fucked up country.

This is a good example of the hypocrisy and double standards Obama has been dealing with since day 1. 2 years ago, the treason party's policies were significantly rejected when Obama beat Romney by a huge margin. The same 4 years before that. Where was all the talk about how McConnell and...

That's pretty spot on. I leaned right in Australia, so when I moved here I assumed I would be a republican. Then I found out that not only are they completely insane, but I am considered far left in this country.

Yeah, if there's one thing we know the republican party can't stand, it's racism!

Fixed that for ya.

Doesn't matter, the people who voted for walker would vote for him no matter what. He discovered early on that he didn't even need to try to hide the fact that he's screwing Wisconsinites over and his rabid base will still hail him as the messiah. He could burn down an orphanage by tossing in...

Well you're just part of the problem.

In order to end gridlock we have to re-elect the people who brought unprecedented gridlock? I can't think of a more accurate description than fucking stupid.

Jesus christ you people are fucking stupid. It's the republicans that have been causing all the gridlock. Mcconnell filibustered his own god damn bill, ffs. And you wastes of oxygen are going to vote more of them in. Every parent with a cranky fucking toddler knows that you don't cave just so...

Just the ones who vote republican.

The very wrong assumption here among the anti **** and ******* crowd is that anyone who uses ***** or ******* is an addict and for most users that is not true. I occasionally *****, and I frequently smoke pot, but I am not addicted to either, and neither has had a negative effect on my life.

Jesus christ nester, how do you fit so much wrong into a single line?

The really scary and depressing part is that this country is full of people just like that one. A big part of America loves ignorance.

Speaking of hook, line and sinker, you do realize that only a fraction of the koch's donations are reported, right? That legitimate contributions to democrats is a drop in the bucket compared to the amount of "dark money" going to republicans? But let's just pretend you're right for a...

Yup, you see now why they're becoming known as "the American Taliban"?

It's "Wississippi," thank you very much!

I am morally obligated to show you respect. Well played sir. :clap:

This assclown is now my favorite fox news idiot. I can't believe he's a psychiatrist. He says we should be going on a jihad to ***** every other country to adopt our constitution, because it has always worked so smoothly here...

Wow, shocking. We have unsustainable income inequality in this country. That's not democrat bullshit, it's economic fact. Democrats have been trying to level the field, but republicans want to protect the rich at all costs and keep blaming all our problems on the poor people, for the crime of...

So the law is great when it's ******* black people or stopping women from getting birth control and things like that, but it's government overreach when it's say, trying to make cliven bundy pay for land use, or getting affordable health care for everyone? I'm just trying to figure out the...

Weak. I don't have the right to call you on your bullshit because I'm Australian? I was living here in 2008 when republicans collectively lost their fucking minds, and I've been witnessing the damage they've been doing to the country and the people in it ever since. I have ******** who are US...

No, fuck you. Name one other president who has had to produce his college transcript or birth certificate because a bunch of treasonous cock suckers are all pussy hurt that a black man won election. You can't. You're an asshole.

So, the rich are sucking up wealth at an unprecedented rate and paying their employees less, and you want to blame the people who can't afford to eat, even though many of them work full time jobs where they can get them, for all of this country's problems? There's republican logic at work.

Wow, you're a fucking idiot boobtoucher. Are you really claiming to be an expert on the president's history? Do you still believe he is a Kenyan born Muslim???

Well, that's still better than congressional democrats, who are doing better than congressional republicans. This has been the republicans whole plan for the last 6 years, it's blatantly obvious. Spoil everything, aim straight for the bottom and hope they drag the other side down too. Yes...

Haha wow, have you ever been in reality? It was Romney who told college **** that if they can't afford it they should just borrow the money from their parents. It was Romney who said he doesn't have to care about those 47% who think they are entitled to food. The guy can't even look comfortable...

It's the social issues that incites their base, and besides, they can't run on economics or employment, because history has shown that they consistently suck at it. Unless they lie outright. Wait, never mind... Romney made a lot of great sounding promises about jobs and the economy, but he...

I **** it when they say that, it turns me off and it seems like bad business for her. Considering that she relies on letting guys build fantasies around her I don't think saying "most of you couldn't even get a foot in the door" is a good way to sell herself, no matter how true it is. Having...

Walker has been an outright failure from day 1. Cooking the books ("I will never use cash accounting, only GAAP", lying about balancing the budget), making up his own employment numbers ("the BLS figures don't look very good for us, so we'll invent our own survey!"), attacks against women...

See how rabid these ******* get when they're trying to defend an indefensible position! If every one of the facts are against you, just get really angry to make up the difference!
