A New Reality Show for Sarah Palin and Fox

Reader Comments
Back to blog

In reality Palin is an idiot and the lunkheads who constantly defend her are not facing reality.
Nonetheless we should welcome Palin to join the fray and run for president like the rest of the Seven Dwarfs.
Dishonesty is Palin's only consistent quality along with all the Republican candidates, so no wonder they are rallying around the most dishonest candidates. She fits in fine.

the neocon rhetoric on vouchercare defies logic,every major poll,with the possible exception of faux news and frank( the dunce) luntz express how opposed the people are to ryancare.it,s deader than disco and newt,s campaign.
as i stated previously the republicans ran theWHOLE show from 2002 to 2006,they broke it ,they own it. with such poor stewardship of the economy,led by ,at best, the misguidged george bush, only people like that right wing spin master ,rush limbaugh,and his lackeys, would try to defend such actions.

He ignores the fact that bad polls numbers were ignored by democrat controlled Congress and White House. Now he proclaims dead Ryan bill. Burcetee sees no irony in his statements.
Have shown proof “vouchercare” is far better than TO BE $$$ 15 trillion cuts to obamacare. Showed CBO left out major part of senior aid in Ryran plan. That CBO has great reservations about barry’s $$$ 15 trillion in cuts. barry’s death panel to worsen as economy worsens.
My proof with links are provided earlier. Brucette has none of course.
Bush tax cuts did as we promised. CBO using real numbers, not projected, prove my case. Have given links to the numerous Bush warnings ignored by democrats that lead to Clinton;s recession. Doubt brucetee has bothered to read. Natural I provided links and can see in earlier comments here.
Brucetee likes to give full disclose to what would happen once Republicans took control. It does not work that way. Is fact Bush’s reform regulation failed with not a single Republican vote. And Barney Frank said was no problem with Fannie & Freddie. Democrats said we were nuts:
“Democrats LIE about ECONOMIC Bailout - video of Barney Frank DOING NOTHING ABOUT BANKING CRISIS then pointing fingers at Republicans”

As usual, tax cut to rich increased government revenue under Bush:

1. brucet have said obamacare would eventual save money. He does that by destroyer medicare:
"cuts in payments to doctors and hospitals under Medicare as provided in current law due to Obamacare and President Obama’s Medicare reimbursement policies is $15 trillion!"
http://www.912superseniors.org/2011/05/why-paul-ryans-medicare-is-so-much-better-than-obamas/
2. brucet says “vouchercare plan was to ever become law countless seniors would be priced out of the healthcare market”.
“Beginning in 2022, the Ryan plan offers each new Medicare enrollee a choice of private health plans and a premium paid to the plan they choose. The key is that the premium will be equivalent to what Medicare is projected to spend under the Obama health law: $15,000 a year on average, more for the oldest enrollees, less for the youngest, all inflation adjusted."
“The Ryan proposal also includes a $7,800 annual medical savings account to help low-income seniors with out-of-pocket costs. Amazingly, the CBO analysts exclude this $7,800 benefit from their calculations. Their warning about low-income seniors suffering is baseless."

say what you will the major polls tell the story. by a large margin people want no part of vouchercare.
as to bush and the infamous tax cuts had they done all the grand things that some people claim,we would not find ourselves in the financial situation that where in today.just remember the republicans ran the whole show from 2002 to 2006.that being said there is no way that they can be absolved of the responsibility for their actions.
george bush,while in office,was a financial illiterate.

What a horrible memory you have brucetee.
Listen to kewall of GA , he has and uses his brain. His politics are based on facts not FEELINGS nor ignorance. He earned his success and you wish it given to you.

JEC Report_ Tax cuts to rich generate more governmemt revenue...
"Since 1984 the JEC has provided factual information about the impact of the tax cuts of the 1980s. For example, for many years the JEC has published IRS data on federal tax payments of the top 1 percent, top 5 percent, top 10 percent, and other taxpayers. These data show that after the high marginal tax rates of 1981 were cut, tax payments and the share of the tax burden borne by the top 1 percent climbed sharply. For example, in 1981 the top 1 percent paid 17.6 percent of all personal income taxes, but by 1988 their share had jumped to 27.5 percent, a 10 percentage point increase. The graph below illustrates changes in the tax burden during this period."

Democrats oppose ID for voting, 75% of the citizens want it
24 % of the people share Obama’s political views, which means 75% oppose his views
51% favor repeal of Obama care
So by your remark that Republicans would not be stupid enough to support Ryan’s plan, why are you stupid enough to support anything Obama does?

kewall of GA 10:00PM June 12, 2011

call it by whatever name you chose, vouchercare,the ryan plan ect.the only place it;s going is on a road to nowhere.
even the republicans aren;t that dumb to continue to push something that is opposed by more than 70% of the voters.

That's is what "Former Treasury Secretary Paul O'Neill was told "deficits don't matter" when he warned of a looming fiscal crisis" says Dick said.

the american people are wise to what the republicans are trying to do with vouchercare.they know vouchercare is not medicare.i would direct you to paul krugman,s column of 6/5/2010.he articulates the position better than i can.
bottom line,it;s a ponzi scheme.
as to the defict,it was that noted neocon dick(five deferments )cheney who said on one of the sunday talk shows several years back "that deficits donn;t matter".
