There were WMD's in Iraq .. Proof found ..
Reagan:
Reagan inherited an unemployment rate of 7.6%, no wars, no major financial crisis, a still robust auto industry, a right wing clamoring for increased defense spending (that helps domestic employment), no retiring baby boomers actually taking down social security funds.
the unemployment rate under Reagan went from 7.6% to 9.7-9.8% in the summer after his inaugural, and remained at that level for two years, before it began to decline in the summer of 1983. In "Obama-time", that would be the equivalent of the summer of 2011. Moreover, the economy did not begin improving until the Spring, 1983, in "Obama-time" that is Spring, 2011.
Now what do you have to say Frank ? Tell me more about the Reagan god and how he doubled the deficit at the same time.

so what
You guys are great! Frank, you are a perfect example of why I am a liberal! Bill you are you...
None of this is going to matter cause Christine O'Donnell has a wiki doll that represents voters and she is going to voodoo everyone into voting GOP!
I knew she was special! Then the "Blue Aqua" God will be the next leader of the house!
May you live in interesting times my friend!

The thing about Frank and all the right wingers he typifies is, when presented with the truth, actual irrefutable facts, they have an ability to ignore them and refer back to their comfort zone of parroted rhetoric.
Frank is proof of that. Just by the way he ignores most of my questions, which would force him out of his comfort zone. And when he idolized Reagan and I present him with Reagan facts, there is no, "I didn't know that. So Reagan doubled the deficit with his "trickle down theory" and took a robust economy to 9.8 unemployment. So Reagan was worse than Obama in his first two years and yet recovered . And Obama was handed a recession. I see your point".
He starts a thread announcing some small stockpile of chemical weapons were found, as though that justifies the Iraq war and in my first post I say it was expected because Reagan gave Saddam the know how to make them to use against Iran, he goes on for several more posts claiming I can't admit Bush was right. Even though I said it in my first post he couldn't see it, because it came with an explanation that didn't fit his propaganda.
And when I showed him my admittance that their was small pockets, i got no response from him. The right wing parrots can never leave their comfort zone to think for them selves. Everything must fit within the right wing propaganda. I love Frank because he demonstrates that everytime he writes a political post.

Yeah, I don't leave the fact that I don't agree with socialism, fascism, spending us into bankruptcy, giving 90% of what I make to lazy people, bowing down to countries who hate us, giving terrorists citizenship so they can have a lawyer, giving illegal immigrants a free pass so they can vote for the liberals, opening the borders so we have more illegal immigrants come to this country and take our jobs, and then protest for amnesty so they can vote for the democrats, funding a auto industry to help the unions, spending trillions of our dollars to bail out banks, then putting the ceo of that bank on the economic team..
Yeah, I don't agree with any of that - I guess I just can't think for myself. I guess I just don't know what is good for me. Maybe I should listen to a congress and President who spent more in his first two years than any President in history, a speaker who is stoned on crack, a nut case who feels that a tree or bird is more important than a babies life. A president who follows the ways of a radical Marxist, a President who admitted that he is a Marxist, a President who cares more about the Palestinians than he does about Israel, a speaker who calls anyone who does not agree with her stupid, or astro turf, a admin who is trying to take away our freedom of speech, unless it is something that supports their agenda, a admin who has ruined any chance for my daughter and grand kids to have any chance of prosperity, a admin who wants the whole country to depend on them, a admin who cares about illegal immigrants and people on welfare than they do about people who work hard for what they got, a admin who wants the top 5% to support the bottom 95%, etc, etc, etc, etc, etc,
Yeah, I should listen to them more than anyone, as they are the blind trying to lead the blind. If you want to talk about the stupid not knowing anything, and not knowing what they are doing - Look at them, as they are as lost as blind mind in a dark room...
This whole thing is the fact that Liberals think they are smart and know what is good for everyone. Yeah, that is why over 70% of the country doesn't agree with you.

I was thinking about the same thing, but for all the liberals in this country. We can have Bill write it, then he can dedicate it to his favorite Presidents, Carter and Obama. It sounds like something you would be interested in as well.TragicMind wrote:im' just talkin about how much frank ROCKS! not tryin to get more personal than that. i serious think rocpage should get together and write and record a song in franks honor. kind of like a we are the Wolrd thing.undercoverjoe wrote:Why don't you make it personal?TragicMind wrote:hawk let frank alone!!! he's anti-socalists! thats why he's a pennstate student. hes getting a degree and upward mobility from a gov. funded university to be ironic! hes in the highest tax bracket ever if hes giving 90% of his income to lazy people. frank knows the score! thats why he has an opinion on absolutely everything on this site from music to poltics. hes just that smart & cultured that he knows everythign!

Frank
Here are the simple questions I have ask you to comment on throughout this single thread. You have avoided every single question. Now prove you can think for yourself and make an attempt to answer these questions. If you cannot you prove to yourself that you cannot think for yourself.
The problem is the questiuons are filled with information that is unknown to you.
No cop outs please.

Do you think if GW told the truth - We believe Iraq has some small stockpiles of chemical weapons that Ronald Reagan helped them create in order to protect themselves from Iran - we would have went to war ?
So Frank, was it worth all the deaths and destruction (the small stockpile) ?
I dare you to tell me why you never complained about GW taking it to $10 Trillion ?
If the tax cuts work so well, where were all the jobs Bush created ?
If we took these tax cuts and put them back where they were, it would help reduce the deficit. Isn't that what you want ?
Here are some dramatic facts that sum up how the wealth distribution became even more concentrated between 1983 and 2004, in good part due to the tax cuts for the wealthy and the defeat of labor unions: Of all the new financial wealth created by the American economy in that 21-year-period, fully 42% of it went to the top 1%. A whopping 94% went to the top 20%, which of course means that the bottom 80% received only 6% of all the new financial wealth generated in the United States.
Now tell me why the top % need more tax cuts ?
I'll add this to the questions about your thread title page.
Did GW Bush claim there were large stockpiles of WMD including both chemical and nuclear weapons and the ongoing building of nuclear weapons ? If the answer is "yes", then the wiki documents say Bush was WRONG ! Correct or incorrect ?
OR, Did he tell the USA there might be a small stockpile of chemical weapons ? If this is what Bush actually told us, then the wiki documents do prove him right . Correct or incorrect ?
Which story did Bush tell us Frank ?
Explain Obama's Marxist programs please.
What taxes have been raised on business since Obama became President Frank ? Back up your statement.
2/3 of your income on the lazy ? Of the 10% out of work Frank, how many are lazy ?
If Bush's tax cuts worked so well, why did he create TARP ?
GW Bush created TARP.
Posted: Monday Oct 25, 2010
Why was TARP created Frank ?
A financial crisis, go figure.
How could we have had a financial crisis with GW Bush ? The tax cuts were creating millions of jobs. The deregulation of the banking industry was allowing banks to (not be responsible for their own loans) sell the mortgages to insurance companies. The rich had their tax cuts and could spend those $Millions on building a great economy!
With the Republicans having everything they wanted why did we need TARP Frank ? I don't get it ?
The tax cuts and de-regulation worked so well, let's try it again ! Good mantra Frank...
ANY COMMENT HERE FRANK ?
That's a spin Frank. Deregulation allowed banks to sell off their bad loans bundled with good loans. If there was NO de-regulation, and each bank was responsible for their own loans, would they have made so many bad ones ?
Troubled Asset Relief Program - TARPWhat Does Troubled Asset Relief Program - TARP Mean?
A government program created for the establishment and management of a Treasury fund, in an attempt to curb the ongoing financial crisis of 2007-2008. The TARP gives the U.S. Treasury purchasing power of $700 billion to buy up mortgage backed securities (MBS) from institutions across the country, in an attempt to create liquidity and un-seize the money markets. The fund was created by a bill that was made law on October 3, 2008 with the passage of H.R. 1424 enacting the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008. The Treasury will be given $250 billion immediately, and the President must certify additional funds as they are needed. The additional funds will be distributed as $100 billion, and then as the final $350 billion is given, Congress has the right to not approve the additional amounts.
Obama became president after Tarp in 2009.
Here are some dramatic facts that sum up how the wealth distribution became even more concentrated between 1983 and 2004, in good part due to the tax cuts for the wealthy and the defeat of labor unions: Of all the new financial wealth created by the American economy in that 21-year-period, fully 42% of it went to the top 1%. A whopping 94% went to the top 20%, which of course means that the bottom 80% received only 6% of all the new financial wealth generated in the United States.
Now tell me why the top % need more tax cuts ?
Come on Frank, try to answer the questions. Do you disagree with the CBO ?
A needed boost .
Many economists and number-crunchers tend to agree with the Democrats' argument that the economy would be in more perilous straits had no stimulus been enacted.
The CBO said its economic models indicate the stimulus increased the number of jobs by as much as 3.3 million in the second quarter of 2010 and cut the unemployment rate by as much as 1.8 percentage points.
At a Senate Budget Committee hearing, University of Maryland economist Carmen Reinhart, an expert on the slumps that follow financial crises, said that without the stimulus, "We would be doing much worse."
The CBO is:
Congressional Budget Office (CBO) is a federal agency within the legislative branch of the United States government. It is a government agency that provides economic data to Congress.[1] The CBO was created as an independent nonpartisan agency by the Congressional Budget and Impoundment Control Act of 1974
Here you go Frank: What do you think of this ?
So why did the banks collapse?
Yes Frank, let's look at the facts. Reagan did cut taxes, then he increased taxes to the middle class. Reagan's economic plan DOUBLED the deficit ! Bush followed his plan to a T and got the same results ! And you want more of the same ?
In 2000, outgoing Sen. Phil Gramm (R-Texas) attached a 262-page rider to an appropriations bill to deregulate derivatives trading and other complicated financial instruments like collateral debt obligations.
This was the effective nail in the coffin for the FDR-era Glass-Steagall Act, which put into place a number of banking regulations and created the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. The purpose of the Glass-Steagall Act was to prevent a repeat of the crash of 1929.
Who is this Phil Gramm? Seems to me he caused a lot of problems. Where's he now ?

Why do you 2 continue to argue?? Hawk, you love everything Obama stands for, and that's your right. Frank, you hate everything Obama stands for, and that's your right. You 2 are never, ever going to agree, so why even bother?? You've wasted how much of your lives attempting to score political points on a music website. How about getting involved with your respective parties, and try to make a difference. It's obvious you aren't making a dent here. I haven't met either of you personally, but you seem like well meaning, decent people. Agree to disagree, and get over it.
Pour me another one, cause I'll never find the silver lining in this cloud.
Frank, the questions are simple. Just a yes or no for some and an opinion on some.f.sciarrillo wrote:Bill, it doesn't matte what I say to you. You will still say that I can't think for myself. I learned that a long time ago. You simply think I can't because I haven't agreed with most things you think. You will not proselyte me to liberalism.

FRANK IS AFRAID TO ADMIT THE ANSWER IS NO.
I dare you to tell me why you never complained about GW taking it to $10 Trillion ?
FRANK IS AFRAID TO ADMIT HE NEVER NEW THERE WAS A DEFICIT UNTIL OBAMA BECAME PRESIDENT, HE DIDN'T KNOW BUSH HAD A DEFICIT
If the tax cuts work so well, where were all the jobs Bush created ?
FRANK WOULD HAVE TO ADMIT THAT BUSH'S ECONOMIC POLICY FAILED TO CREATE JOBS, AND FRANK STILL WANTS TO GO BACK TO THESE SAME POLICIES
If we took these tax cuts and put them back where they were, it would help reduce the deficit. Isn't that what you want ?
FRANK IS AFRAID TO ADMIT THAT THE TRILLION LOST IN TAX CUTS CONTRIBUTED TO A TRILLION IN THE DEFICIT.

FRANK STILL THINKS THAT THE RICH WILL PROVIDE JOBS. JUST LIKE THEY DID DURING THE 8 YEARS OF THE BUSH ADMINISTRATION. FRANK DOESN'T REALIZE THAT IT DIDN'T WORK.

Did GW Bush claim there were large stockpiles of WMD including both chemical and nuclear weapons and the ongoing building of nuclear weapons ? If the answer is "yes", then the wiki documents say Bush was WRONG ! Correct or incorrect ?
fRANK IS AFREAI DO ADMIT TO THE TRUTH AND ANSWER "CORRECT"
OR, Did he tell the USA there might be a small stockpile of chemical weapons ? If this is what Bush actually told us, then the wiki documents do prove him right . Correct or incorrect ?
QUESTIONS LIKE THIS SCARE FRANK.
Which story did Bush tell us Frank ?
FRANK CAN'T ADMIT THE TRUTH HERE EITHER.
Explain Obama's Marxist programs please.
FRANK SIMPLY CAN'T BACK UP HIS STATEMENT HERE.
What taxes have been raised on business since Obama became President Frank ? Back up your statement.
FRANK'S ANSWER: I DON'T KNOW, I JUST PARROT WHAT I HEAR. I HAVE NO CLUE.
2/3 of your income on the lazy ? Of the 10% out of work Frank, how many are lazy ?
FRANK: I LIKE TO MAKE THINGS UP, AHH, REALLY, I DON'T KNOW
If Bush's tax cuts worked so well, why did he create TARP ?
GW Bush created TARP.
fRANK: I DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT TARP, WHAT IS IT AGAIN ?
Posted: Monday Oct 25, 2010
Why was TARP created Frank ?
A financial crisis, go figure.
FRANK HAD NO CLUE THERE WAS A FINANCIAL CRISIS WHEN BUSH WAS IN OFFICE
How could we have had a financial crisis with GW Bush ? The tax cuts were creating millions of jobs. The deregulation of the banking industry was allowing banks to (not be responsible for their own loans) sell the mortgages to insurance companies. The rich had their tax cuts and could spend those $Millions on building a great economy!
With the Republicans having everything they wanted why did we need TARP Frank ? I don't get it ?
FRANK: ARE YOU BEING SARCASTIC ? I CAN'T TELL.
The tax cuts and de-regulation worked so well, let's try it again ! Good mantra Frank...
ANY COMMENT HERE FRANK ?
That's a spin Frank. Deregulation allowed banks to sell off their bad loans bundled with good loans. If there was NO de-regulation, and each bank was responsible for their own loans, would they have made so many bad ones ?
FRANK: i DIDN'T KNOW THAT
Troubled Asset Relief Program - TARPWhat Does Troubled Asset Relief Program - TARP Mean?
A government program created for the establishment and management of a Treasury fund, in an attempt to curb the ongoing financial crisis of 2007-2008. The TARP gives the U.S. Treasury purchasing power of $700 billion to buy up mortgage backed securities (MBS) from institutions across the country, in an attempt to create liquidity and un-seize the money markets. The fund was created by a bill that was made law on October 3, 2008 with the passage of H.R. 1424 enacting the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008. The Treasury will be given $250 billion immediately, and the President must certify additional funds as they are needed. The additional funds will be distributed as $100 billion, and then as the final $350 billion is given, Congress has the right to not approve the additional amounts.
Obama became president after Tarp in 2009.
FRANK: I DIDN'T KNOW THAT
Here are some dramatic facts that sum up how the wealth distribution became even more concentrated between 1983 and 2004, in good part due to the tax cuts for the wealthy and the defeat of labor unions: Of all the new financial wealth created by the American economy in that 21-year-period, fully 42% of it went to the top 1%. A whopping 94% went to the top 20%, which of course means that the bottom 80% received only 6% of all the new financial wealth generated in the United States.
Now tell me why the top % need more tax cuts ?
Come on Frank, try to answer the questions. Do you disagree with the CBO ?
FRANK SAID HE'D GET BACK TO ME ON THIS ONE, I'M STILL WAITING.
A needed boost .
Many economists and number-crunchers tend to agree with the Democrats' argument that the economy would be in more perilous straits had no stimulus been enacted.
The CBO said its economic models indicate the stimulus increased the number of jobs by as much as 3.3 million in the second quarter of 2010 and cut the unemployment rate by as much as 1.8 percentage points.
At a Senate Budget Committee hearing, University of Maryland economist Carmen Reinhart, an expert on the slumps that follow financial crises, said that without the stimulus, "We would be doing much worse."
The CBO is:
Congressional Budget Office (CBO) is a federal agency within the legislative branch of the United States government. It is a government agency that provides economic data to Congress.[1] The CBO was created as an independent nonpartisan agency by the Congressional Budget and Impoundment Control Act of 1974
Here you go Frank: What do you think of this ?
So why did the banks collapse?
Yes Frank, let's look at the facts. Reagan did cut taxes, then he increased taxes to the middle class. Reagan's economic plan DOUBLED the deficit ! Bush followed his plan to a T and got the same results ! And you want more of the same ?
FRANK PRAISED REAGAN WITHOUT KNOWING ANYTHING ABOUT REAGAN, WHICH IS NORMAL FOR MOST OF HIS POSTS
AND HIS ANSWER IS.........................................YES, I WANT MORE OF THE SAME!
In 2000, outgoing Sen. Phil Gramm (R-Texas) attached a 262-page rider to an appropriations bill to deregulate derivatives trading and other complicated financial instruments like collateral debt obligations.
This was the effective nail in the coffin for the FDR-era Glass-Steagall Act, which put into place a number of banking regulations and created the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. The purpose of the Glass-Steagall Act was to prevent a repeat of the crash of 1929.
FRANK: I DIDN'T KNOW THAT
Who is this Phil Gramm? Seems to me he caused a lot of problems. Where's he now ?
FRANK: WHO ?

Frank
Here are the simple questions I have ask you to comment on throughout this single thread. You have avoided every single question. Now prove you can think for yourself and make an attempt to answer these questions. If you cannot you prove to yourself that you cannot think for yourself.
The problem is the questiuons are filled with information that is unknown to you.
No cop outs please.

Do you think if GW told the truth - We believe Iraq has some small stockpiles of chemical weapons that Ronald Reagan helped them create in order to protect themselves from Iran - we would have went to war ?
FRANK IS AFRAID TO ADMIT THAT THE ANSWER IS NO.
So Frank, was it worth all the deaths and destruction (the small stockpile) ?
FRANK IS AFRAID TO ADMIT THE ANSWER IS NO.
I dare you to tell me why you never complained about GW taking it to $10 Trillion ?
FRANK IS AFRAID TO ADMIT HE NEVER NEW THERE WAS A DEFICIT UNTIL OBAMA BECAME PRESIDENT, HE DIDN'T KNOW BUSH HAD A DEFICIT
If the tax cuts work so well, where were all the jobs Bush created ?
FRANK WOULD HAVE TO ADMIT THAT BUSH'S ECONOMIC POLICY FAILED TO CREATE JOBS, AND FRANK STILL WANTS TO GO BACK TO THESE SAME POLICIES
If we took these tax cuts and put them back where they were, it would help reduce the deficit. Isn't that what you want ?
FRANK IS AFRAID TO ADMIT THAT THE TRILLION LOST IN TAX CUTS CONTRIBUTED TO A TRILLION IN THE DEFICIT.
