If not, the Dow will crater and East End tourism will evaporate. On the plus side, the bargains in real estate will be astounding.
Adelson has vowed to spend as much as $100 million to help sway the 2012 election. According to a new report by Seth Hanlon, the director of fiscal reform at the Center for American Progress Action Fund, Adelson could turn that investment into a $2 billion tax cut if Romney is elected. Now that's what I call the One Percent Club. Read it in the Huffington Post today (online at www.huffingtonpost.com ).
Romney has branded Russia the "No. 1 geopolitical foe" of the United States (sounds like another profitable arms race for Romney's financial backers..cha-ching). Putin said Tuesday that Romney's statement shows Russia is right to criticize the U.S.-led NATO plan to place land- and sea-based radars and interceptors in several European locations. Washington says the shield is intended against a possible missile attack from Iran, but Moscow sees it as a threat to its security. Putin said in remarks carried by Russian news wires that Romney's statement has "strengthened Russia's positions in talks on this important and sensitive subject." Putin concluded by saying "Romney is a putz - Americans are screwed if he wins".
Watching the House Republicans back then was like watching the pod people in "The Invasion of the Body Snatchers." They were obviously motivated by an overweening drive to which normal people were immune.
Today's Eichenberg report on the CIA having clearly and credibly told Cheney about Bin Laden 6 months before 9-11 are shocking. It seems Cheney had a war path planned (for Haliburton to profit by) and manipulated the CIA reports to his liking; using his words, not the CIA's, to convince a very stupid man...Bush. We attacked the wrong enemy, tens of thousands died. We attacked Iraq, thousands of Americans died. All-in-all it was a major clusterfuck; I hope you'll pardon the frank expression. You cannot ask a person of even average intelligence to believe that it would be right to put the Republicans who placed us into this horrid mess back into the White House. I am not that person to whom you speak. I caution others listening to you to approach with extreme caution anyone suggestion that Americans can trust Romney and Ryan. See today's Huffington Post (online) and read about the $2 BILLION...yes I said BILLION...tax cut that the biggest casino owner will get if Romney is elected. That's why he has pu up $100 million out of pocket to throw this election. You'll need a reason at least that strong to vote for Romney who, after all, is just a pimp for guys like that.
On the 11th anniversary of 9/11 our embassy in Cairo is overrun by crazed Islamist who tear down our flag and raise the banner of Al-Qaeda, more radicals attack our consulate in Libya and a staff member and our President who was such a staunch supporter of the Arab Spring refuses to meet with Prime Minister of Israel to talk about the growing nuclear threat of Iran because the son-of-a-bitch is too busy campaigning to save his sorry ass. If you think this jerk deserves another term good for you, history will remember you and the rest who vote for him as fools.
Barack Obama...he was just the junior senator from Illinois.
I don't know who is the greater threat now, terrorists like Al-Qaeda or internal threats like the Democrat party.
Altschuler refuses to speak out against VA benefit cuts. Why? Ryan refuses to stop lying about Medicare cuts. Why? Romney-Ryan and Altschuler are using the "Southern Campaign" of lies? Why? Because they have no answer to our problems. If they did, they would have spoken up long ago...to help American when we needed help the most. Then, as now, they're playing politics with Americas future. That's NOT a lie. It's the truth and we must face it. It's the reason we can't support these men when we go to the polls in November. Vote for America...Vote for Obama.
Not last year, not two years ago ; now. Why, because it is an election year and President Dip-Sh!t needs to look like he is doing some thing, anything. It is the same reason he issued that dictate for illegals two months ago, Dream Act Light. Obama promised Immigration Reform in his first year and did nothing. Second year, nothing, third the same. Now as a desperate attempt to pander to Latinos he gave out his command to change policy, no vote, no approval, just the whims of a desperate man desperate to cling to power.
Fourth quarter GDP a negative Unemployment up Consumer confidence down Gas ticking up already Awesome.
January's Strong Jobs Report Trumps a Decline in GDP The Bureau of Labor Statistics, a unit of the Labor Department, said the January increase in nonfarm payrolls was 157,000, close to the 165,000 median estimate of economists surveyed by Bloomberg. The unemployment rate, which is based on another survey, rose a tick to 7.9 percent, from 7.8 percent. But the big surprise was the upward revision in job growth at the end of 2012. The economy added 247,000 jobs in November and 196,000 in December, the BLS said. That’s a total of 127,000 more for the two months than previously estimated. Bottom line: Friday’s report is truly good news, indicating that this week’s report of a decline in GDP was probably a false alarm. http://www.businessweek.com/articles/2013-02-01/januarys-strong-jobs-report-trumps-a-decline-in-gdp Oh, and by the way, Consumer Confidence is down because Americans do not trust dysfunctional, obstructionist Republicans to do anything. And Obama's favorables are the highest they've been since O9 when he inherited an economy of the verge of collapse. You need to find a new pony to ride. Pathetic you have to go back to an article from September to find a reason to spew your extremism.
"dysfunctional , obstructionist republicans" are the reason consumer confidence is down? Republicans lost their power years ago. Libs are driving the bus. You see the people that have money to spend if they choose tend to be hard working , Independent types. All the people on the government "tit" never have extra to spend due to the choices they have made. Thus the lack in consumer spending would actually fall on the shoulders of hard working , self-reliant people. People who do not trust the present administration i would imagine. See Hazel , some of us can even think for ourselves , regardless what some may think. Pathetic you have to use propaganda to replace rational thought.
