"Let Detroit go bankrupt" -Mitt Romney

"If I'm elected will pump 2 trillion dollars into defense spending" - Mitt Romney

"This President has done nothing to create job growth and throws billions at healthcare and disabled vets"- Mitt Romney

Under Bush's TARP program:

Potential conflict of interest:

There was concern that the current plan created a conflict of interest for Paulson. Paulson was a former CEO of Goldman Sachs, which stood to benefit from the bailout. Paulson has hired Goldman executives as advisors and Paulson's former advisors have joined banks that were also to benefit from the bailout. Furthermore, the original proposal exempted Paulson from judicial oversight. Thus there was concern that former illegal activity by a financial institution or its executives might be hidden.[66][67][68]

The treasury staff member responsible for administering the bailout funds is Neel Kashkari, a former vice-president at Goldman Sachs.

In the Senate, Senator Judd Gregg (R-NH) was the leading Republican author of the TARP program while he had a multi-million dollar investment in the Bank of America.

Iraq and Afghanistan Wars Have Cost Americans $3.7 Trillion so far.$12,000 Per Person:

US War Costs Reach $3.7 Trillion
Iraq and Afghanistan Wars Have Cost Americans $3.7 Trillion,$12,000 Per Person

A study conducted by Brown University’s Watson Institute for International Studies found that over the past 10 years the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan have cost United States taxpayers a total $2.3 to 2.7 trillion, with a final tally being at least $3.7 trillion, an average of $12,000 per American citizen. According to the study, titled,“Costs of War”( www.costsofwar.org ) in 2011 the United States Congress has given $1.3 trillion to the Department of Defense for war spending. Projected costs do not include care for wounded US veterans and interest on the war debt.

At least $185 billion has been spent on interest payments so far. The Reuters news agency, according to CBS, estimates a further $1 trillion will be spent paying off war debt.

The final costs aren’t going to be known for decades, if ever. Aside from costs to American taxpayers, the cost to Iraq and Afghanistan in repairing destroyed infrastructure, caring for people with disabilities and lost income from people who were killed may never be tallied. By the end of 2009, the U.S. had spent $44.6 billion on rebuilding Iraq, half of which was on the Iraqi military and security forces, according to a 2010 article in USA Today.

When the Bush administration authorized the first auto loan of $17.4 billion, in October 2008, some aspects of the loan were contingent upon the companies hitting “Restructuring Targets.”

Although you claim that Democrats are not necessarily liberal, surely SOME of the Democrats I listed are/were actual liberals - you've proven yourself to be a LIAR.
You constantly ACCUSE me of being a liar, but I've just PROVEN (again) that you actually are a liar.

When the facts are clear and right in front of you, of course you run and hide, then start calling people derogatory names.
PROJECTION - you're the founding father of it...you try to use these fancy psychological terms that you stole from the counselor who was only trying to help your sorry ass become more human like. You lack empathy and this is characteristic of an anti-social personality. This is serious too even though your psychiatrist tried to help you....you of course rejected the help. So PROJECT on that for awhile.

You're the King Dumbass on here and everyone knows it....

The only thing that were not sure of is:

A) do we laugh at you're stupidity
B) do we feel sorry for you because of your mental handicaps
C) we just don't like you at all...because you're an ignorant moron

Daily Horoscope for June 19

Capricorn

You're feeling slightly unconventional and you're looking for activities that will reflect your mood. You certainly won't be very keen on doing things that are drearily predictable or boring, although you'll grit your teeth and get on with them if you have no choice. But ideally you should do things on the spur of the moment, preferably in the company of people who make you feel alive and alert.
