Rico asked:

Is this anything but good news as to the improving state of civil rights in America?

Or do some on the right see this as another sad reminder of a golden American age gone by?

mo in the middle asked:

and 43% of American households spending more than they make, do household budgets pose more of a threat to our economy than government budgets?

slıɐuǝoʇ asked:

“So what!” was the answer he gave. Do you find this an appropriate response from a Cabinet Minister whilst millions of people are struggling to keep their heads above water as they get hit with tax rise after tax rise?

With US Oil Prices Hitting An All Time High, Why Do Obama, Hillary, and ALL DEMS Refuse To Let The US Drill?

Friday 2 March 2012 @ 9:17 pm

JOHN M asked:

Perhaps President Bush illustrated my question best when he was quoted on YAHOO news today with the following…

“One of the interesting things about American politics is, those who are screaming the loudest for increased production from Saudi Arabia are the very same people who are the fighting the fiercest against domestic exploration, against the development of nuclear power and against expanding refining capacity.”

Stock market is at an all time high?

Wednesday 8 February 2012 @ 10:19 am

gunkinthedrain asked:

It seems like such a funny boast, because it’s so idiotic…
DOW under Bush 10,495-13,326
Dow under Clinton 3,371-11,497

S&P 500 B: 1240-1506
S&P 500 C: 443-1439

What these numbers tell are that Clinton didn’t have to have every day announced at an all time high because every day was…all the markets being at an all time high is that we haven’t completely gone in reverse…how hard a concept is that to understand
