RW's hated Clinton with a passion, but liberals and the rest if the world liked him.

Remember what the arch-conservatives said when leftists spewed non-stop hate at Bush, comparing him to Hitler, etc.?

Now the rightie crew is spewing the same hate at Obama.

What happened to all that 'respect for the office', 'supporting the C in C during wartime' talk?

It's funny how conservatives think George Bush was a hero even though he fomented big authoritarian gov't.[/

Even though there's a lot of bad things to look back on, I'll always remember him for the unpatriotic act.

Sound and effective?

You seem to give a good example of the point I was making. A smaller federal gov't is not anarchy.

It is to Mott, but in the same vein he thinks it's silly and stupid to say expanding government, rather than reducing it, isn't fascism. The flawed logic he's using is absolutely astounding.
 
I noticed that Legion finally got smart enough to make polls he's going to use all his trolls on into non-public polls.

Much of it certainly is. Maybe even most of it. Be that as it may, it's to easy of a cop out to dismiss the right wing as a bunch of bigots. There's no doubt identity politics play into their dislike of Obama but it certainly isn't the whole story. I would say it is probably more accurate that most of the right wing resent him more as a highly educated Yuppie then as an African American.

I would go so far as to say that our current political polarization is based more on geography then it is on identity or ideology. A glance at the electoral map demonstrates that.

Yeah and the dislike of Clinton was because he was a honkey. Dumb ass. Why do you fucking left-leaning folks on this board keep conversating with a troll?

Edit: Well Toni Morrison said Clinton was black so maybe that was it.

Dumb ass knows both sides of the aisle, and in Mott's case, the "on the fencers" as well.

Mott is the troll's one and only friend. Can you say l-a-m-e?

Give a dog a bone...:palm:

Just curious.

What programs would you cut, and by how much?

So many, where do I start?

Major cuts to Federal money going overseas, Obamacare, the DEA and the drug war, (stop putting tax payers through the legal system who haven't victimized anyone.) Get rid of any future government unions through mainly attrition, repeal the income tax, get rid of the Department of Education, the EPA.

There's a few of many.

Be specific.

Name the program, and give us a number (percentage or dollar).

BTW, what will you do with the people who lose their jobs as a result?
