TheMercenary does exactly what Rush Limbaugh has ordered. Attack others so we will forget who the dumbasses are who sent 4,500 good American soldiers uselessly to their death. Who stuck us with $1 trillion in useless wars. Only a wacko extremist have so much contempt of America to even all but protect bin Laden. Then insult others to mask their contempt.

Who would attack Pelosi rather than apologize for massive destruction to the American economy? TheMercenary loves what wackos have done to this nation. Would have us do more damage. That is his political agenda. Attack. Insult. Promote a political agenda at the expense of America. Do not discuss what Redux has posted. Otherwise TheMercenary would have to admit how wacko extremists routinely subvert science, the economy, the US military, all budgets, American popularity and respect, American power, the American standard of living, and … well, the list of what wacko extremists have not harmed is so much shorter.

Wacko extremist can only snipe while drooling in their caves. Post after post from TheMercenary does only that. Constant hate and contempt is constant because most good people now know that wackos are also obsessive liars. Will say only what promotes an extremist political agenda. Wacko extremists don’t have solutions – as post after post from TheMercenary demonstrate. Extremists understand that power and influence comes from insulting and attacking others. Limbaugh does it. It worked even for Hitler.

Impossible here is a discussion of Redux's facts and ideas. Extremists attack others rather than discuss reality. Pelosi did not squander America's wealth, soldiers, popularity, standard of living, and safety. TheMercenary advocated and encouraged that. "Reagan proved that deficits don't matter." Only wackos who so harmed America believe that. No wonder Redux cannot have an honest discussion. Otherwise TheMercenary would have to admit how extremists have created America’s worst problems. So TheMercenary must blame everyone else – as Limbaugh tells him to do.

Snipe from caves. Subvert facts and honest discussion. That is the extremist agenda. Show me an extremist that does not do that? Hitler did the same thing. It is how extremists gain power and subverted America. "Mission Accomplished".

Well Tommy, perhaps you've conveniently forgotten your attacks not only on other posters, but also on their wives - other people haven't.
Shall we take a little trip down memory lane?
Do you really wanna go there?

Yes I do. We should remember you started it because that is what extremist do. And have no problem again going after those who would post demeaning personal attacks to avoid reality. Shame that it had to come to that. As a wacko extremist, you were only posting personal attacks and insults. Only attacking because you could not defend what you were told to think. I do not apologize for posts that you made necessary.

Redux discusses how to address the long list of disasters created by extremists, George Jr supporters, and the "Reagan proved that deficits don't matter" philosophy. His ideas have merit. So extremist attack him, and Pelosi, et al rather than deal with the reason for our economic malise. Economic problems that in some cases were identified (warned of) years before they happened. So destructive as to even create a $1 trillion debt we have yet to start paying for - Mission Accomplished.

Even bin Laden is still alive because wackos subverted numerous attempts to get bin Laden. So you will attack Obama? Probably.

When was the last year you had an original thought? Silence or lies will follow. Or post more Redux attacks.

Yes, Tommyboy, you came in late and attacked - goodie for you.
I however had naught to do with it. So take your bitter, bile-laden posts and stick 'em.

Or more questions which you again cannot answer asking you to back up your lies. As usual your accusations have zero merit. Redux has posted things, some of which I agreed with and other I didn't. But that is not the point and your diversions will not stray from the fact that you Tommyboy, tw, called another posters wife a gonorrhea dripping whore.
Here is one and another
There are more, but I just remembered something - you aren't worth my time.

Oh, on top of that you're still too small a man to apologize. Why I ever took you off ignore, I do not know.

You aren't worth my time. Please stop addressing me. You are completely wrong and have added nothing constructive. Good day, I said GOOD DAY!

After many years, economic data is reporting what really happened. From the Washington Post of 1 Jan 2010:
Quote:
U.S. economy took a dive in the 2000s, a lost decade for workers
For most of the past 70 years, the U.S. economy has grown at a steady clip, generating perpetually higher incomes and wealth for American households. But since 2000, the story is starkly different.

The past decade was the worst for the U.S. economy in modern times, a sharp reversal from a long period of prosperity that is leading economists and policymakers to fundamentally rethink the underpinnings of the nation's growth.

It was, according to a wide range of data, a lost decade for American workers. A decade that began in a moment of triumphalism and the idea among some economists that recessions were a thing of the past has included two of them -- bookends to a debt-driven expansion that was neither robust nor sustainable.

There has been zero net job creation since December 1999. No previous decade going back to the 1940s had job growth of less than 20 percent. Economic output rose at its slowest rate of any decade since the 1930s as well.

Middle-income households made less in 2008, when adjusted for inflation, than they did in 1999 -- and the number is sure to have declined further during a difficult 2009.
Average American has seen his incoming drop 2% while the richest have seen salaries increase less than 100 times.
Quote:
The first decade of the new century was an experiment in what happens when an economy comes to rely heavily on borrowed money.

"A big part of what happened this decade was that people engaged in excessively risky behavior without realizing the risks associated," said Karen Dynan, co-director of economic studies at the Brookings Institution. "It's true not just among consumers but among regulators, financial institutions, lenders, everyone."

The experiment has ended badly. While the stock market bubble that popped in 2000 caused only a mild recession, the housing and credit bubble has had a much greater punch -- driving the unemployment rate to a high, so far, of 10.2 percent, compared with a peak of 6.3 percent following the last such downturn.
But then our leaders said, "Reagan proved that deficits don't matter". We were told how to think. Time to start paying for those who spent money recklessly.

Not really, but it isn't right for him to come out of nowhere and start shit, act like he's never said anything like that and drag me into it, when I had nothing to do with it. I could not tw's hypocrisy go unchecked.
My point was made - back on ignore he goes.

So you attack people rather than contribute facts and knowledge. Your recite Rush Limbaugh rhetoric. Then attack others (ie Redux) using Limbaugh techniques. When called out for doing so, you cry that is unfair?

Why a double standard? Because you are doing exactly what Limbaugh does. After all, extremists are god’s chosen people. How dare they be exposed for attacking others – and having no facts. Fair is to go after those who do as you do - with vindication. I only apologize to others for not exposing your techniques and political agenda often enough.

Redux tried to have a logical discussion. So wackos subverted it with attacks on a ‘liberal agenda’. Same techniques used by Nazis to subvert Germany. “Disparage the bourgeois and intelligencia”. Attack others. Then logical thinking cannot happen. Then political extremism can thrive. How unfair that I would identify what you (and TheMercenary) are doing.

Well according to that logic the current administrations spending, which is making Reagan's look like pocket change comparatively, sure isn't going to help the next decade.

Well, it took the idiots in the Bush White House eight years to get us into this mess. What makes you think that someone can wave a magic wand and all our problems will be over yesterday?

Then add facts you always forget. Spending is only a symptom. Who created those debts years earlier. Extremists always forget that to take cheap shots at Obama.

Not only did extremists subvert the Clinton surplus. Now we begin paying for Mission Accomplished, tax cuts to the wealthy, K Street corruption, science rewritten by White House lawyers (and the resulting stifled innovations), 'Axis of Evil', a space program in such disarray as even almost destroy Hubble, subversion of world respect for America, and ...

Why were seven largest American banks told they had eight hours to save the American economy? After eight years of extremism management and welfare to the rich, the banks only had eight hours warming? Even short term economic activity was subverted. By openly permitting Enron style accounting (extremists even refused to prosecute Lay and Skilling), finance people could no longer trust anyone. How bad is that when even the crooks will not loan money.

Reality means facts, numbers, and honesty as reported in The Washington Post. Which only confirms what the middle class has known. Even Harvey Pitts refused to increase the SEC budget - since Madoff, et al was so good for America. Or do you also blame that debt on Obama? Obama did not mortgage the American economy? Why do you again forget reality? The George Jr decade is the only post war decade to subvert American wealth and economy.

I believe Cheney called it "Mission Accomplished".
