Default you gotta hand it to the democrats...

you gotta hand it to the democrats...
somehow they find a way to convince folks that this fictional republican war on women is real while ignoring that the democrat war on women could be argued began at chappaquiddick in 1969 & continued through a stained dress in the oval office & is perpetuated today by convincing some women they're incapable of taking care of themselves. the women i know are strong & very capable but sadly some of them have bought into this democrat lie. i wonder if bill clinton will talk about his war on women tonight.
just like the democrat war on poverty has brought us more people in poverty & dependent on government they wish to do the same to women.
but what do you expect from a party that believes we belong to government instead of government belonging to us? that's right folks; democrats believe you are the property of government. what happened to the democrats that believed in "ask not what your country can do for you - ask what you can do for your country"
and now democat pandering...after removing God & Jerusalem from their party platform have put them back in despite initially wishing them away.

Actually it wasn't any harder than Republicans convincing American People that Trickle Down Economics works, or that the Republican Party cares about anything other than the top 2 % of the country. I wonder how long the republicans can keep up their War on Reason .....

First the term is Supply-Side economics. Second all that money and prosperity is what convinced people with functional brains.

It's a reality thing.

Don't care what you want to call it , it doesn't work . Reagan drove up the debt and deficits with it, Bush 1 drove them up more, Bush Jr. Finished what Reagan and Bush started... And Drove the debt through the roof and the deficits higher.

Damn those facts..

supply side economics is what made my feet deformed and induced me to order a lot of our clothes online. From mostly American companies, of which there are few compared to years before the off shoring.
Also there are many products I just cannot get anymore that friends of mine say they would also buy if available.
Like computer cash registers which greatly slowed things down, it is a concept strictly for business ease not for an overall logical approach to economics.
Soon any such system built without the consumer in mind will fail (as this one did).

Keep thinking in terms of the desirability of businesses failing when they produce crap that the consumer doesn't want (See GM bailout,) and soon you'll be one of us.

No mention of Obama exploding the debt at twice the rate of the previous administration with no end in sight? Not a whisper about the historic credit downgrade under Obama?

Where is the Federal budget, not a proposal Democrats couldn't vote for, that controls the deficits? Facts indeed.
