Again, your own story says that he spent his own money on his meal. Even you can understand that part. He drank a glass of wine and paid for a bottle. Even though he would only have to pay for one glass to follow the rules.

And, as I said, so long as he pays for his own stuff I couldn't care less who he was having dinner with any more than I would care that some D congressperson had dinner with a Labor Union Rep if they paid for their own dinner.

And you know this...how again? Fact is, I had a problem when Obama said it, as well, and said so.

It's so funny how you guys project your hackery.

As for my being a "hack" here - just a reminder: I'm criticizing the OP, because I'm fairly certain the guy never said that. You always slam me for not taking legion to task, but when I do, I'm still a big "hack."

So predictable....

bullshit...you never said so

you're only saying so because once again, you're called to the floor

I absolutey have said so. You think I never criticize Obama, because, as I said, you project your own hackery. Fact is, I have criticized him dozens of times on the site. I have praised him for things like the stimulus, which I supported, but haven't been that much of a fan over the past year or so. I in no way turned a blind eye to his telling consumers not to spend in a consumer-based economy during a recession.

But, you are a mind-reader, after all.

Oh - and see SF's post above. He gets it about the reading....
 
The fortune teller at work....this WOULD have happened....that WOULD have happened.....MAYBE Ryan wouldn't have paid ? Well, Ryan DID pay and maybe he meant to all along.....

but keep on with the bullshit you throw around so often....its what we expect of hacks.

wow I thought dividends were 15% is that just cap gains?

It is LONG term capital gains. Short term cap gains are taxed as ordinary income. Since 2003, many publicly traded corporation's dividends also have been taxed at LT cap gains rates if the holding periods have been met. That is set to expire at the end of 2012.
 
Did he ever even say that Americans should curtail spending? Maybe I missed it, but I haven't seen answer on that...

So what even if he did....

Its just another way of saying "the government", "we", " Americans"....it could all be a way of saying the government spends too much money its doesn't have....

This nitpicking and parcing every word a person utters gets more ridiculous by the minute.....

I don't think he said it, but it's ridiculous to describe the difference between gov't & consumer spending as "nitpicky," especially if you're a conservative.

Gov't needs to reign in spending. Consumers, on the other hand, should be encouraged to spend within their means (avoiding falling into debt is another issue).
 
Ryan paid the tab you dolt. He even supplied the receipt to show that he had.

After he was confronted....would he have had he not been spotted and called on it?


Are you in the habit of ordering wine in expensive restaurants without knowing the price?


That's what Ryan now claims he did - it's usually on the wine list, as far I as know.

Get a grip dude.....I, myself often say , "WE need curtail spending" or " This government spends too much", or "americans spend too much on the military"( or welfare, or anything...._)............all meaning the very same thing......
and I would bet you and millions of others have said the same thing.....

and the word used was AMERICANS, not consumers....

what does mind reading have to do with knowing you never criticized obama for his comments on this site? typical onceler....when busted, deflect and trot out his tired lame one liners....

you didn't criticize obama....that is a fact

Why not....I often order my entree when I dining out in expensive restaurants without knowing the price.....and I'm not a millionaire.....If you can't afford to eat out stay the fuck home.....

I hate to disagree, really - but it's not a fact, it's an assumption based on your own projection of hackery. Either that, or you have read & memorized every thread & post on the site. You choose.

And what did you "bust" me in? Being a hack for trying to defend a Republican on this thread? Good call....
 
Actually, I take it back; even if you did read & memorize every post, it wouldn't be any "proof."

You know - the reading thing & all....

I think you are incorrect on this. While I don't have the specific thread handy, I know he has criticized Obama in the past and I am pretty certain one of those times was on a similar topic as this thread (though it was Obama rather than Ryan as the person of topic)

ok...all he has to do is link the post. he has said in the past that if someone doesn't link to their claim, they are liars. i know he has criticized obama occassionally, but i do not recall him criticizing obama for this. if he did, i will admit i'm wrong.

You truly are a fucking child. So YOU don't believe he said something so he and/or I have to go back and search and find the thread and post it for you? Ridiculous yurt.

side note: Link up where he said that or you are a liar.

are you high? i'm a child for asking someone to back up their claim? do you call yourself a child when you ask others to provide a link? oh wait, you just asked me to provide a link to something he said, but, i'm a child for asking the same thing.

fucking retard.
