I watched Barry last night for that 1 hour and change speech last night and came away with a couple thoughts - every senator and representative that has been in office over the last 20 years or more should retire in shame and forego his pension and entitlements, (new ones can stay but only 2 terms each) and Barry needs some serious Wade psuedoeconomics.

I mean how many of these clowns actually understand the basic principles of balancing a checkbook. Every Government agency should get an 80% budget until we're out of this shithole & taxes should be increased until we're out, but with that tax increase every citizen get's a free trip to D.C. on Barry's new high speed rail system to give his politician of choice a kick in the nuts.

I turned the channel after watching that shit for an hour and a half realizing none of these fools has any intention of doing a fucking thing; besides, the history channel had a show on the antichrist last night - I wish that asshole would hurry the fuck up already.

I don't WANT my taxes raised, but it is a necessary evil in which to actually balance this budget. The other part of the equation is for the momolucs in DC to quit using the taxpayer money like a piggy bank.

In reality, this problem cannot be solved and a balnced budget is fvcking pipe dream.

Imo, it would be smarter to just build up the debt right now. You have to get out of this slump. I vote left on the political spectrum and have been called a communist on this board quite a few times (in jest), but at this point, you have to lower taxes (for everyone, not only the rich) and pump money into the economy.

You'll have a deficit. That's pretty much unavoidable in an economy that's as down as this one and you try to keep it running.

Then, when we finally get out of this crap, you put taxes up by quite a bit and start saving some of that money that you get in and pay off debts. It's vital to get a surplus going, as that money will come in quite handy when your economy goes down the drain again.

Next to that, the next time, it shouldn't crash as hard.

Problem is, politics are a popularity contest. As soon as the economy is up, we don't want to pay more taxes, we want to enjoy our wealth. Spend money on crap we don't actually need. Buy things we can't afford. And, if they can get the votes, the politicians gladly move along.

In a couple of years, we'll end up in the same hole as we're in now, everyone pointing out how the government failed in hindsight.

At least the House can set a new agenda, and help define the stupidity and vacuuousness of our Dear Leader....and tenured members of both parties. Apparently these Ivy League fucks have not mastered 8th grade math.

Did you not notice my mention of "tenured members of both parties" Mass?? Read the whole thing, and try to avoid injecting your bias in my comments.

If you have ever read my comments of the past....and I know you have....you will note that in most I call out the failure of our government as a whole, and occassionally single our Democrats of late....as they HAVE had total control of goverment for several years until recently, for the abject failure of leadership.

Please do not assume I am some lover of Bush, just because I find the current dolt an abject failure. It has taken both bought and paid for parties to get to this point, but Obama has hit hyperspeed in his lack of understanding of economics, and over the top spending.

Now...please find some other partisan subject to latch on to.

I thought it was a great show. The close-ups of everyo..................oops. I was watching a replay of my colonoscopy I had yesterday. Believe me, there was more shit at that speech than there was in me. Glad I missed it. LOL
Anyone for a Weenie Roast?

Cheers on that, Montana. This guy is so full of shit, and has broken just about every promise he mad during the campaign. Claims of transparency? 72 hours to let the public and opposition read bills? Showing his "legislative" process on C-span?? Not one of them fulfilled....and we are to believe his lying, backwards ass now??

Fuck him, and the media who never saw a question they couldn't help but refuse to ask of this dunce!

And, Mass....if the Reps fuck up as bad as this guy....if they REFUSE to lead and make the tough choices...I will be just as hardon them. This is a time for leadership, and the making of difficult, life altering decisions....or we are done as the America we grew up in.

In that case, a House that fights every spending measure it faces will help lower spending, so I agree with you there. I don't necessarily think that blindly fighting everything is great for the future of the country, but I guess that's another issue entirely (although it is the reason I responded rather harshly to what seemed like praise of the GOP led House).

packerfanoutwest (2m) : minny could be #1 seed and the Lions #5 seed
Zero2Cool (2h) : We'd have same Division and Conference records. Strength of schedule we edge them
Zero2Cool (2h) : I just checked. What tie breaker?
bboystyle (2h) : yes its possible but unlikely. If we do get the 5th, we face the NFCS winner
Zero2Cool (2h) : Ahh, ok.
bboystyle (2h) : yes due to tie breaker
Zero2Cool (2h) : I mean, unlikely, yes, but mathematically, 5th is possible by what I'm reading.
Zero2Cool (2h) : If Vikings lose out, Packers win out, Packers get 5th, right?
bboystyle (2h) : Minny isnt going to lose out so 5th seed is out of the equation. We are playing for the 6th or 7th seed which makes no difference
Mucky Tundra (3h) : beast, the ad revenue goes to the broadcast company but they gotta pay to air the game on their channel/network
beast (4h) : If we win tonight the game is still relative in terms of 5th, 6th or 7th seed... win and it's 5th or 6th, lose and it's 6th or 7th
beast (4h) : Mucky, I thought the ad revenue went to the broadcasting companies or the NFL, at least not directly
Zero2Cool (4h) : I think the revenue share is moot, isn't it? That's the CBA an Salary Cap handling that.
bboystyle (4h) : i mean game becomes irrelevant if we win tonight. Just a game where we are trying to play spoilers to Vikings chance at the #1 seed
Mucky Tundra (4h) : beast, I would guess ad revenue from more eyes watching tv
Zero2Cool (4h) : I would think it would hurt the home team because people would have to cancel last minute maybe? i dunno
beast (5h) : I agree that it's BS for fans planning on going to the game. But how does it bring in more money? I'm guessing indirectly?
packerfanoutwest (5h) : bs on flexing the game....they do it for the $$league$$, not the hometown fans
Zero2Cool (6h) : I see what you did there Mucky
Zero2Cool (6h) : dammit. 3:25pm
Zero2Cool (6h) : Packers Vikings flexed to 3:35pm
Mucky Tundra (6h) : Upon receiving the news about Luke Musgrave, I immediately fell to the ground
Mucky Tundra (6h) : Yeah baby!
Zero2Cool (6h) : LUKE MUSGRAVE PLAYING TONIGHT~!~~~~WOWHOAAOHAOAA yah
Zero2Cool (7h) : I wanna kill new QB's ... blitz the crap out of them.
beast (7h) : Barry seemed to get too conservative against new QBs, Hafley doesn't have that issue
Zero2Cool (8h) : However, we seem to struggle vs new QB's
Zero2Cool (8h) : Should be moot point, cuz Packers should win tonight.
packerfanoutwest (8h) : ok I stand corrected
Zero2Cool (8h) : Ok, yes, you are right. I see that now how they get 7th
Zero2Cool (8h) : 5th - Packers win out, Vikings lose out. Maybe?
beast (8h) : Saying no to the 6th lock.
beast (8h) : No, with the Commanders beating the Eagles, Packers could have a good chance of 6th or 7th unless the win out
Zero2Cool (9h) : I think if Packers win, they are locked 6th with chance for 5th.
beast (9h) : But it doesn't matter, as the Packers win surely win one of their remaining games
beast (9h) : This is not complex, just someone doesn't want to believe reality
beast (9h) : We already have told you... if Packers lose all their games (they won't, but if they did), and Buccaneers and Falcons win all theirs
Zero2Cool (9h) : I posted it in that Packers and 1 seed thread
Zero2Cool (9h) : I literally just said it.
packerfanoutwest (9h) : show us a scenario where Pack don't get in? bet you can't
Zero2Cool (9h) : Falcons, Buccaneers would need to win final two games.
Zero2Cool (9h) : Yes, if they win one of three, they are lock. If they lose out, they can be eliminated.
packerfanoutwest (9h) : as I just said,,gtheyh are in no matter what
Zero2Cool (9h) : Packers should get in. I just hope it's not 7th seed. Feels dirty.
packerfanoutwest (9h) : If packers lose out, no matter what, they are in
packerfanoutwest (9h) : both teams can not male the playoffs....falcon hold the tie breaker
packerfanoutwest (9h) : if bucs win out they win their division
beast (9h) : Fine, Buccaneers and Falcons can get ahead of us
packerfanoutwest (9h) : falcons are already ahead of us
beast (9h) : Packers will get in
