Why would a "proud Liberal" be so consistently against the truth?
The word 'recession' has a meaning. The country is not even close to a recession. Hasn’t been since 9/11.
The press has continued for far too long to lie about what a recession is and the state of the economy in general.
You in particular and Liberals in general (I'm watching Alan Coomes doing it right now) can't seem to discuss any given topic based on any sort of normal rules of argument. Instead all discussion is reduced to logical fallacies (your red-herring here) or simply shouting down opposition.
Today Obama put out an ad in which he claimed to have created welfare reform. This is factually a documentable lie. He opposed it from his Illinois Senate Seat and voted on no part of the bill that was initiated by the Republican's and signed into law by Bill Clinton.
Its an out and out lie. He had zero to do with it becoming law and from his little soap box in the Illinois Legislature, he was against the bill. Now he brought it into law?
Why lie? Isn’t his real record good enough?
I don’t think any major international corporation would hire him as lead corporate council worthwhile as CEO, yet American’s are in sheep-like fashion seriously considering electing this wildly left-wing man as their Commander-In-Chief.
The result will be the opportunity to see America lose its primacy on the world stage and bankrupt itself to boot.
If you took a few minutes to think about the formation of capital, how it is utilised and how fungible it is, you would not be so keen to think that taxing the brains out of rich people and corporations will yield lower GINI index numbers. The capital needed to continue the growth of America’s economy will be in places like Hong Kong, Singapore and Canada. Places that understand that the most important freedom they have is their economic freedom.
Look to Zimbabwe if you really want to get a glimpse of the glorious revolutionary ‘change’ that Obama really stands for.
