Really...and please tell us where his statistics are wrong? You may have a Bro-Mance with the man but he has been a disaster for the economy. It's not going to hurt me but you must be young or you wouldn't be drinking this Kool Aid. YOU will be paying for this Obamanomics for decades. I am thankful that YOU will be paying my Social Security and Medicare...but who will pay yours?
This woman represents the large and loud teachers on picket lines last year. Their record is abysmal yet they are very high paid. It's the unions that keep the incompetent employed. Pity the children that are supposed to be educated by these low flying ducks! Teaching used to be an honorable and respected profession. Since the unions have taken over, they have provided cover for those who should not be in the classroom. Teachers act like longshoremen instead of professionals and wonder why they don't get the respect they received in the past.

Richard Cohen Explains Conservatives

Actually that is not true. Read "Who Really Cares" written by a liberal who was surprised by his findings. Conservatives are FAR more charitable because they do not believe in government being the great solver of all problems. Not only do they give more, and NOT just to churches, but they volunteer more and give of their time and talent. You are not correct. Please get some facts.

The 10 Biggest Political Debacles of 2012

Exactly....Republicans fleeing from Mitt Romney, saying he was "least electable" must have conveniently forgotten that Santorum couldn't even win his own state and would have been shredded by the Left for his views on contraception, not to mention his bad record in the Senate. Let's see then there is Newt who has more baggage than United Airlines, Rick Perry who sounds like he's speaking with a mouthful of oatmeal, Herman Cain's bimbo eruptions...overblown by the media or not, he was toast. Michele Bachmann with her vaccine conspiracies..yep there was a LOT to choose from.
Have you been to Israel? The Israelis are VERY self sufficient, grow incredible crops, have excelled at starting new businesses. It is an amazing, vibrant and beautiful country. It's not the citizens that need the foreign aid. Further what about foreign aid to countries that hate us? Why would you begrudge our allies military support but hand over money to the Muslim Brotherhood?
I have been truly surprised at the continued "admiration" of Mrs Clinton particularly after her DISGRACEFUL actions following Benghazi. She lied, she evaded,she pointed fingers and she prosecuted someone who had nothing to do with the attack. Oh and how's that investigation going? Have we brought the terrorists to justice as promised? She is truly an disgrace in so many ways. I think it's only the ignorance of the American people that keep her on the top of this list. But then they were the same ones who voted Obama in again. As my grandmother used to say "There's no accounting for taste."
As to loss of birds due to supposed problems with soft shells, far more birds die when pesticide infested forests die and then burn. I grew up in timber country and saw this first hand. Once DDT was banned, the Tussock Moths took over along with Bark Beetles. Green forests turned brown and then black as they burned to the ground almost taking my hometown with them. How many birds died during and after the fire? We need to use such poisons with caution but banning them does far more damage.
Rachel Carson has more blood on her hands with her anti pesticide hysteria. In Africa, mosquitoes who could be easily dispatched with judicious use of DDT have spawned an epidemic that kills far more than AIDS. Liberals happy in their climate controlled apartments in NYC decry the JUDICIOUS and CAUTIOUS use of very effective pesticides, thereby dooming African children to a miserable and preventable death. I am delighted that Rachel Carson's idiotic "work" is being debunked.
Sure if you are Mother Teresa but the Hawkins is talking about those who are too lazy or unmotivated or stoned to get off their butts and take care of themselves or their families. I see this when volunteering for various charities. For some the only question is where can they get a rent voucher or free medical care or how to get to the Food Pantry. These are able bodied young people who could...horror of horrors...get a JOB perhaps? It shocks me how often this plan simply does not occur to them. It is too easy to get help, to bump along at the bottom of the sea living off everyone else.
