You are mistaken, Guy. What Obama really said was, "When we succeed, we succeed because of our individual initiative to pay high income taxes to the goverment." Obama sincerely believes the "government" is the "be-all" and the "end-all" of everyone's success!
Obama is so stupid he doesn't realize that private contractors built these roads. All the government did was collect taxes to pay these contractors who built the roads and made it happen.
Romney knows he is ahead. He's saving his money and keeping his powder dry. There will be a blitz near the election, after the convention. Until then just depend on your talk radio station to keep everybody apprised of the situation and your fellow conservatives to keep the pressure up. Keep fighting. Strategy and tactics matter.
We object to the idea that you think you can take credit for our work. It's time you stopped doing that. It's worse than plagiarism.
agree, look at the demographics in the polls. Just made a thread where a recent CBS poll is showing a drop in Democratic enthusiasm. Negative campaigns do not tend to excite the base. My guess is Romney will use the Olympics to reenforce his management credentials., play up the VP choice, then the convention excitement then launch into the economy full swing for the last few weeks. Obama on the other hand has 3 more bad jobs reports to look forward to and so far his only strategy is demonize the rich and put down free enterprise and small business
Stop lying and twisting my words commie. Nobody buys your propaganda any more. As a matter of fact I'm so sick of your garbage I'm putting you on ignore. You just lost any signifigance on this board.
you mean those blue dog democrats, thought they were about extinct. heard the Hollywood elitist progressives and the Chicago entitlement class destroyed them
One more thing to all of the conservatives out there. Numbers matter. A huge number of Obama supporters did so because of peer pressure. Get those Romney stickers on your cars! DO IT TODAY!!!!!!!
This open and unapologetic, wholly collectivist sentiment emanating from an American President reveals just how far the extreme left has taken this country..... a country founded, settled, organized, fought and died for, and sustained on the notion of INDIVIDUAL rights, liberty, economic freedom, creativity and industriousness... Purge.
Algorithm: 1. Rob the productive. 2. From 1, bribe the unproductive. 3. Extort unbelievers and uncooperative using fraud, deception, and coercion. 4. Get re-elected by 1-3 coupled with no-holds-barred villainy. 5. Goto 1 - repeat cycle as much as dupes will tolerate. Sound familiar?
He put a spin on what even he came to realize that what just came out of his mouth was radical, idiotic and rude. Liberal logic cannot comprehend this finer point.
Obama has never understood America, I don't know why, maybe the people he hung out with trained him. When you build a business you rish your money, you spend 80 hours a week working and worrying. If you are successful you did it not someone else. Obama proves he is an idiot at every opportunity
Only conservatives would describe a call for national unity and increasing all our living standards socialism. But I guess when you think Hawaii is Kenya, you're capable of any sort of delusion.
That was not the point. Who helped me start my business? Maybe two other guys, one who still works for me, and the other one who struck out on his own not too long afterward. Who put me through college? I did, because... who is paying back my student loans? I am. Who earned my GI Bill for me? I did. This "we do things together" crap is a message sent by a liberal to other liberals, one who likes to take credit for what Bush has done and blame him for all the things that Bush did that didn't work out, and passes that same message on to other liberals who also apparently like to take credit for what other people have done, mainly small business owners. I mean honestly, do you as a consumer feel that you should take credit for someone else starting a business? We started our business to make a profit off of you. If you're not willing to do business with us, then we take our business to someone that will. That doesn't afford you any credit for building and maintaining our business for us though. One small business owner can keep their business alive; one consumer can't.
Contracted? Businesses growing thanks to socialist programs? WE pay taxes for all of those things. Those who've successfully taken advantage of what we all paid for to achieve success should rightly pay more into maintaining and expanding those advantages. The ultimate success of any business depends on all of us. Or as I said, "How much would any business be worth without all those "socialist" contributions from all of us?"
Yes. In big cities. Ever seen a cobblestone street? A better question is would the automobile exist today if Henry Ford had to pay to build all those highways himself? A syccessful business owner has every reason to be proud of that success but he also has e\many reasons to acknowledge the help he got from all of us in achieving that success.
Really? Businesses built I95? Really? Got receipts? and the roads built by local governments? They weren't paid for with tax dollars? Please. Hire a private detective. You've apparently lost your clue.
That's what Obama said. As for my hat? I don't wear a hat. Apparently what your buddy was trying to hand me was a palm full of crap. Given where "conservatives" keep their heads the mistake is understandable.
Businesses achieving success at the expense of the taxpayer? I guess maybe they owe a little thanks to all of us for that success.
