None of this compares to giving Halliburton and Bechtel no bid contracts on two unfunded wars, of course there are all the dead too but that never seems to be part of the equation.

Fishy, Comparing this to no bid contracts does not solve the problem and as you often say, both sides are to blame. Granted, often for different screw ups. One does not justify the other, as parents often say.

Remember your post?

Where the outrage? The call for someones head?


Its perhaps a more equal comparison, but I also agreed with you on the validity of your outrage. We should be able to agree, there is much to clean up on both sides. Neither problem is justifiable.

We dont know about it, if its not reported. There are plenty of networks who wont report problems of this nature, if it makes their guy look bad.

Cleaning either house might be mission impossible, they are so deeply entrenched, and actually appear to believe they really are the cure.

Got any ideas on how and why no-bid contracts were even thought of?

Didn't think so.


Yes I do Hank, but why don't you dazzle us with more copying and pasting....

Clean your own house before demanding others clean theirs, and maybe we'll get somewhere.

Polarizing sheeple annoy me.


Whatever....

Like Dave ever, needed your help. Dave is not a sheeple.

Whole lot of continual crying about C/P ing, which is done solely to prove to those non-thinkers that someone, or many someones, are all thinking the same thing. Without the C/P, the crying would then be......."Prove it!!"

(Nothing personal Fishy, but you wouldn't stand a prayer against Hank in a heads-up, no outside reference debate. The old man is very well informed.)

Both sides are fooked.....totally......and right now we are spending money we don't have.........Hello?
Think how much better off the Country would be without paying billions in interest each year. It's a no-brainer.

It's hard to take something like that personal as you know absolutely nothing about me yet perceive to think that I could not hold my own in a debate against Hank, which makes you and your argument pretty lame.


No offense though, ehh! eek

Not a victim avatar at all just a comment on how our collective politicians actually think about us.

The tag line comes from the clownshow that was put on by the republicans and they still have not failed to entertain.

Now that I have answered your contrite comments can we get back to the topic at hand?

Perhaps you should re-read some of my posts, your beginning to be redundant.

hmmmm...I should re-read your posts because I'm becoming redundant?

Two things.....

I haven't even mentioned ACORN prior to my last post, so redundancy isn't even possible.

and

it's "you're", not your

Redundant about blaming everything on the Dems, I know it was nuanced but try and pay attention.


Since you're giving out punctuation lessons you should find all the mistakes you'll need in any of Hanks posts, have at it.

It all boils down to this - I'm right, everyone else is wrong, and anyone who disputes this is clearly a dumbfuck.

We could give him the title of Chief Regional Director of Doling Out Big Bucks to Folks That Didn't Earn Them. It's redistributing the money of others' finest hour.


Or what better way to re-distribute the average Joe's money than to give it to the Banksters, after all we all know that they have our best interests at heart. Or we could give the uber-wealthy and the 1%ers more tax breaks by eliminating health care and food subsidies for our elders, cause we all know that their years of hard work only needs to be rewarded if your super rich. Or we could eliminate SS and medicare and go to the Mexican system of taking care of our people in the richest country in the history of the world.

Cause its not like its headline news or anything that people have lost tons of equity in their homes while the banksters were rolling the dice with everyones money and assets.
And we could just call that the " GOP way of doing business".
