American Politics

[Member #4698]

Natty, the reason I didn't address the issues you are hand-wringing worried about is because they either don't exist and have already been thoroughly debunked by others here or they are virtually irrelevant to the economy or national security.

Case in point; "Biden's border crisis!"

What "border crisis"?

Has there been an alarming spike in violent crime committed by newly arriving undocumented immigrants?

You are conflating the 2 issues. I think on purpose because you are obviously not unintelligent nor uneducated.

The open border: 1) the only reason the left wants an open border, insists on an open border, is that the Party Leaders desperately need a massive influx of new votes to achieve the ultimate objective of a nonviolent takeover of the United States of America and the establishment of a one-party socialist state. You know this, I know this, everyone with a functioning brain knows this, so cut the BS. 2) Because of this overwhelming compulsion to establish this socialist one-party state the Democrats in the White House and Congress and their partners and co-conspirators in the corporate media are willing to overlook the fact that thousands of these illegal immigrants currently crossing the border into the USA have the Covid 19 variant. This says everything you need to know concerning what is important to the neo-Marxists totalitarians and you for that matter because you ignore this disaster in all your posts.

The 2nd issue is the rampant increase in violent crime in all Democratic Party controlled major American cities. Roughly 80% of these violent crimes are Black on Black and therefore to do anything meaningful to reduce the violent crime in these areas would require refunding the police departments, restoring stop, ask, and frisk laws, and putting Black violent criminals in prisons which is something the Left is unwilling to do. So violent crime will continue to rise in all American cities as the incompetent, politically correct, Leftist mayors and governors will make more speeches on racism, gun control and how terrible it is to have licensed legal gun ownership in America IE the 2nd Amendment. It is all BS because the Left for strictly political reasons can not & will not admit who commits the highest percentage of violent crimes in American cities even though the victims of these violent crimes are predominately innocent Black Americans. Again, this says everything you need to know concerning what is important to the neo-Marxists totalitarians and you for that matter because you ignore this American disaster in all your posts.

I presume you will post a lengthy comeback position ignoring the crux of my post. That's fine. I wouldn't dream of suppressing your freedom of speech or thought the way your Antifa, BLM bully boys are salivating to suppress my freedoms, but frankly as a long time fellow BKK punter and lover of Thai girls, there is nothing more you and I can say to one another on American Politics as long as you support open borders, rampant violent crime in American cities, and the 3rd issue; CRT indoctrination of American children in schools.

But there is no point in discussing this with you any further. I know you are a Marcusian. Nothing more needs to be said. For example, I believe you honestly think that Jimmy Carter was a great President and defeated stagflation. The good news for you is that it looks like Joe Biden is following in Carter's footsteps. Your important work describing all the good things that are happening in America today and hiding the reality should be in high demand among your circle of political and economic pals. Good times!

Stagflation? Talk about non sequiturs. Natty, until this post I don't recall ever typing the word "stagflation" on this site.

Maybe you are thinking of "hyper-inflation", the double-digit kind that Carter's appointed Fed Chairman, Paul Volker, tackled and defeated starting in late 1979. The defeat that Ronald Reagan falsely took credit for in his 1984 "Morning in America" re-election ads since he wasn't the president who appointed Paul Volker in late 1979 knowing full well what he would have to do to defeat hyper-inflation and, therefore, Reagan wasn't the president who shouldered the heavy lifting and assumed all the political risk to defeat it.

Carter was.

Yeah, I have posted about that before.

Fed Funds Rate History: Its Highs, Lows, and Charts
Updated July 29, 2021

Federal Reserve chair Paul Volcker ended the Fed's stop-go policy in 1979. He raised rates and kept them there to finally end inflation. That created the 1980 recession, but it thoroughly ended double-digit inflation, which hasn't been a threat since.

ET, it is always entertaining to see how you bring up non sequiturs in your talking points in order to skate around an issue and obfuscate the truth. Case in point: "Uncle Joe would (not) have radically cut the CDC budget, pulled our monitoring representatives out of the Chinese labs and effectively dismantled our Pandemic Prevention and Response systems against all expert advice and despite specific warnings about doing such a thing likely leading to exactly the outcome it led to as early as 2018, more than a year before those warnings proved correct."

Excuse me, but wasn't it the American Left's favorite boy Dr. Fauci, the preeminent medical expert on Corona diseases who secretly oversaw the funding of change of function research in the Wuhan Lab where Covid 19 pathogens escaped from in the first place? And did it never occur to you that maybe Dr. Fauci lied to Trump in early November & December 2019 to cover up his complicity. Look man, you keep trying to put the blame on Trump when the real blame goes to the Chinese Government who knew sooner than anyone what had happened, locked down all their cities in draconian fashion, but allowed their nationals to get on planes and infect the world. The Chinese Communist Government did that not Trump.

But you don't want to talk about reality or what is really going on now. Any reality that would hold the Chinese Communist Government responsible for the worst pandemic outbreak since the Spanish Flu is a no-go zone for you. Oh no. That is why you try to obfuscate issue.

Another case in point: I could not help but notice how you said nothing in your response to my post about what is occurring right now under Joe Biden's incompetent mis-governance on the Mexican American border where thousands of Covid 19 Variant infected illegal aliens have been allowed to cross over into my country and have then been transported at US taxpayers expense to every part of the country. This gross failure of leadership and rational decision making makes whatever shortcomings you claim Trump had in dealing with Covid in 2019 small in comparison especially when noted that back in November 2019, all the world's politicians including the leaders of the American Democratic Party, the leaders of Western European countries, Canada, Australia, and SE Asia did the same thing. To any honest person this truth is as clear as night and day. The only guilty party in all this is RED China for allowing the virus to get out of China after they knew it was deadly and infectious and of course Dr Fauci and his buddies who were responsible for partially funded the research at the Wuhan Lab and then covering it up.

But there is no point in discussing this with you any further. I know you are a Marcusian. Nothing more needs to be said. For example, I believe you honestly think that Jimmy Carter was a great President and defeated stagflation. The good news for you is that it looks like Joe Biden is following in Carter's footsteps. Your important work describing all the good things that are happening in America today and hiding the reality should be in high demand among your circle of political and economic pals. Good times!

Case in point; "Biden's border crisis!"

What "border crisis"?

Has there been an alarming spike in violent crime committed by newly arriving undocumented immigrants?

I have not seen evidence of greater spread of Trump's Pandemic virus in USA border states. It is largely happening in Red States like DeSantis' Florida, again the coronovirus epicenter of the universe and racking up as many new cases per day in just that one state as the entire country of Thailand.

Is there evidence that these undocumented immigrants are damaging the Biden/Dem economic recovery from the latest Great Repub Crash and Recession? Where? How? It can't be that they are taking jobs away from USA citizens. Despite the millions of USA jobs Trump's economic decisions destroyed, in many cases there are more jobs available during the Biden/Dem recovery than there are applicants to take them.

Btw, Fauci? Lol. You've got to be kidding. There is no evidence that Fauci did what you stated. However, when he first opined it was not so important or necessary to wear a mask, he had been lied to by Trump about the intel Trump already had about the virulence of the virus. You know, "There is 1 case out of China, 15 cases here and soon.those 15 will be close to zero." There is plenty of evidence that Fauci was lied to by Trump, as was almost everyone else on the planet, but no evidence that Trump was lied to by Fauci.

As has been pointed out, rather than simply accusing me or someone else of "obfuscating the truth", why not post a link to some kind of report that refutes the linked reports I posted? If you can't because there aren't any, well, I guess you're just blowing smoke.

I chime in from time to time when I read logical fallacies by the right wing sex addicts here, calling me a Democrat. Amerika has but one religion, and that is capitalism. Those who feel that they are causing heat," sticking it to liberals, snowflakes, libtards" are tiny repetitive crybabies taking a break from writing previous Penthouse Letters to ISG. I ask for the "beef", something substantive to prove their point and read only more rabid spewing of generalizations. Yes, Fat Nixon took on China for its theft of intellectual property etc. But in a jingoistic and uncoordinated way. Let common sense prevail.

Common sense with a communist country. That is your solution! Communists think different than a free country. Their common sense and Republican common sense are totally different. Possibly Biden left wing politics and a communist country can think alike and solve the issues with common sense because they think alike. But the problem is most Americans don't want us to have the same common sense as communists. Look at Cuba. Biden supports Cuban government and does nothing waiting for common sense. Cubans suffer. Do you really think every country hates capitalism and prosperity? Do you really think every country wants to be dependent on the government? America wants to be free.

[Canada]

Natty honey, KKKanada. Fox new has invaded your brains. Every time the homies bombard you with irrefutable facts, you spew right wing talking points. Why not just post links to One Amerikka Propaganda or Tukkker Kkkarlson. What went wrong with Tuckkk anyway? He had a good education from the Communists at Trinity College. Instead of ranting, take your opponents' arguments apart, point by point, proving they are wrong. That's what they are doing to you.

It is very difficult to provide facts when fake news will not report the facts and Google is blocking almost all news from democrat states failures. Fox News reports the news both good and bad. Fake news does not report the bad news but instead is still trying to include Trump in their news.

Refute this:

Democrats are defunding police and several USA cities have lost over 30% of their officers. Crime and murders are up to record levels. Democrat cities are not safe anymore because they protect the criminals and honest innocent citizens are the victims.

In democrat cities shoplifting or stealing is not a crime. Democrats can walk into stores and steal what they want and walk out with no consequences. Name one other country that you can do this in?

Democrats honor a criminal that is shot by police but cheer when an officer is killed by criminals. Democrats ignore innocent children 18 months old, 4 years old, 10 years old being killed every day. These lives don't matter to democrats. Democrats wear shirts that glorifies killing police.

Fake news and Biden ignore these issues. You can only hear it on Fox News and conservative newscasts. Liberals were refute this and say it is not happening or they will just ignore it. The idiots here will ignore it or pull up some fake news report from a liberal site refuting it.

America deserves better. You know, I know it and everyone knows it. Some people just aren't smart enough to admit it.

[D Cups]

You are absolutely correct. There is no point in engaging with people who are so lost that they can not acknowledge the truth even when it is standing right in front of them. There are a few real haters on this web site. These guys are obsessed with spreading Leftist propaganda, BLM-Atifia talking points, and attacking anyone who disagrees with their ideology. They never post about girls and having a good time. The internet is crawling with these low life reptiles from both sides of the political spectrum because it tends to bring out the worst in people.

But a reckoning is coming. I know a lot of people in the real world especially college educated, 30 to 40 year old, affluent women who voted for Uncle Joe because they disliked Trump's abrasive personality even though they appreciated his accomplishments in office. These suburban independent and in many cases classically liberal women most certainly did not vote for this radical, neo Marxist, racist agenda which now dominates the Biden Administration and the Democratic Party in the House and Senate. The radicals overplayed their hands, Uncle Joe has no idea what is going on, and the Left is getting more and more desperate as 2022 nears. Look out for a lot more fireworks and civil strife before the Left are defeated in the next election.

Hi Natty and Canada. Biden and Harris are making history as the dumbest duo ever to inhabit the White House.

[PVMonger]

Perfect answer from a liberal welfare recipient who never had a business or never did international business. What a loser.

This is exactly how I expected you to respond.

You made a false statement. I destroyed it point-by-point. You persisted in your false statement. I destroyed your false statement a second time.

But, instead of taking the adult approach and refuting what I said point-by-point, you respond with third-grade name calling. But that's what you fascists do. You spout off and repeat the party line and then, when you get called out, you just repeat the same hogwash. You have no idea what the party line means, of course, and that's why you can't speak about it intelligently.

After that, your arguments devolve into childish name calling like "liberal welfare recipient" and "loser". There's a psychological term for what you do called projection Look it up. BTW, dump was excellent at it.

Sammy Boy, you need to get laid.

The left here though does not want the truth. <snip> If they can't acknowledge the border crises, surge in crime and CRT you pretty much know they are losers that hate USA and probably on welfare just waiting for Biden next handout.

[Xpartan]

Nobody is taking this Pelosi dog and pony show seriously. Everyone knows it is a sham.

Where did I hear something like that?

Well, right here, I think (I censored a certain word).

Written Statement of Harry A. Dunn Private First Class USA Capitol Police.

Hearing Before the Select Committee to Investigate the January 6th Attack on the United States Capitol.

USA House of Representatives.

January 27,2021.

More and more insurrectionists were pouring into the area by the Speakers Lobby near the Rotunda, some wearing MAGA hats and shirts that said Trump 2020. I told them to leave the Capitol, and in response, they yelled back: No, no, man, this is our house! President Trump invited us here! Were here to stop the steal! Joe Biden is not the President! Nobody voted for Joe Biden!

I am a law enforcement officer, and I keep politics out of my job. But in this circumstance, I responded: Well, I voted for Joe Biden. Does my vote not count? Am I nobody?

That prompted a torrent of racial epithets. One woman in a pink MAGA shirt yelled, You hear that, guys, this n***** voted for Joe Biden! Then the crowd, perhaps around twenty
people, joined in, screaming Boo! Fucking N*****!

No one had ever ever -- called me a n***** while wearing the uniform of a Capitol Police officer. In the days following the attempted insurrection, other black officers shared with
me their own stories of racial abuse on January 6. One officer told me he had never, in his entire forty years of life, been called a n***** to his face, and that that streak ended on January 6.

I have some news for you.

You are not "EVERYONE," and your opponents are not "NO ONE" as you allowed yourself to believe in your delusional fantasies. Your opponents are the majority of grown up Americans who kicked your cult leader to the curb because, guess what, they know better.

Who paid import duties? American business, that's who. You said that above.

Which arm of the federal government collected those duties? The USCBP, that's who. You didn't say that but you know that's true too.

Once the money leaves the tariff-paying company and is collected by US Customs, it becomes "taxpayer money". Even the most doltish person understands that simple point.

The fact that Chinese companies lost profit means squat. Did any of those "lost profits" come into America?

The only thing that matters is that your initial comment that that dump's payments to farmers wasn't taxpayer money is patently false as I have demonstrated twice! But I get where you're going. You are undoubtedly convinced that Mexico paid for the wall.

Perfect answer from a liberal welfare recipient who never had a business or never did international business. What a loser.

[MiamiSammy]

That's a very thin skinned and erudite post there Sammy boy. If you can't take the heat, get out of the kitchen.

You should be careful about using big words of whose meaning you're clueless.

[EihTooms]

Slow down fella, the Senate compromise infrastructure bill is not law yet. Your radical left amigos have linked passage of it to their 3. 5 trillion Green New Deal bill that is still pending. "House Democrats, including Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), have said that they will not support the bipartisan Senate deal unless the Senate also passes a $3. 5 trillion bill on other "infrastructure" through the reconciliation process. The larger bill includes "green" policies, along with left-wing social spending priorities that Republicans rejected in negotiations."

As esteemed radical left Congressman Jamaal Bowman explains, "We were sent to Congress to transform lives. If the Senate fails to support a reconciliation package that meets the moment on climate and our care economy, I can't see myself supporting their goal of passing a bipartisan package for infrastructure."

And the always wonderfully radical and racist Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez comments "A lot of times, "bipartisan agreements" are just as defined by who people in power agree to exclude than include."

So who knows if the bill will ever become law. I am not even sure that Nancy will allow a vote on it. But for the compromise infrastructure bill to pass the House it will need plenty House Republican Votes to make up for the radical left House members who vow to vote against it.

Stay tuned for fun and games.

That is why I said Trump's infrastructure legislation never "got this close to passage." Snowflake Repubs are perfectly apt to pull their votes for crititcal legislation even as late as the last minutes on the day the vote is taken, if anyone says anything that hurts their widdow feefees.

As a handful of House Repubs did on September 29, 2008, reversing their Yes votes to pass the TARP bill to No at the very last minute and thereby triggering the easily predictable resultant panic selloff in the stock market and plunging worldwide economies into paralyses, otherwise known as The Great Repub Crash and Recession of 2008. And that Great Repub Crash and Recession did not begin to reverse course until Obama-Biden, Pelosi, Reid, the Dems and NO Repubs passed the American Recovery and Re-investment Act of 2009.

Then, of course, what followed was one of the longest USA economic recoveries and expansions, month over month jobs creation and Stock Market Bull Runs of all time.

In fact, the one thing about this next significant economic legislation Biden and the Dems have been working on that worries me about its potential effectiveness to produce stallar results is that some Repubs are showing signs of supporting it with their votes.

Clinton and his Dems' Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1993 and Obama and his Dems' American Recovery and Re-investment Act of 2009 were two of the greatest USA economic expansion, USA jobs creation and Stock Market Bull Run-producing pieces of legislation ever passed and neither of them got a single Repub vote. Naturally.
