Not a whole lot of jobs out there to get at the moment. What are Mitt Romney's plans with respect to welfare? I had heard that he plans to require welfare recipients to work for their checks? How can they do that though if there are no jobs available?

but haven't we heard obama tout month after month that the economy is growing and jobs are being created? so if jobs ARE available, why haven't those folks been hired into those jobs?

He's talking about Brazil's economy where he is sending taxpayers money and creating new jobs for them. I mean all countries look the same to him none are exceptional and they really should all run together. i think it is referred to as internationalism

So many words come to mind when I read the posts from the righties - condescending, egocentric, delusional, holier than thou, angry, jealous, self centered, selfish among many, many others.

Especially around election time. The Republican's I know personally would go barf if they read the extremist right wing views on this forum. So give righties a second look in the real world and not just those in here and you will find some fine upstanding folks.

Right wants everyone to pay a little for services.Left wants everyone but them to pay for services. That's the long and short of it.

hmmm, so right only wants to pay for their services and the left is willing to cover those in need as well, while the right puts their excess in the Bahamas, The Caymans, .........:pepper2:

This is a fun thread for me. Here's another one. Conservatives are results oriented, Liberals are not.

There's one constant to remember about liberals. Liberalism is nothing more than childlike feelings applied to adult issues.

This is why liberals don’t care or worry very much about whether the programs they advocate work or not.

Proposing government programs isn’t really about actually helping people; it’s about making Liberals feel good about themselves. It's not the results that matter, but the thought behind it that counts to Liberals.

On the other hand, conservatives are totally results oriented. This is why Conservatives tend to be so down on government programs, which are inevitably slower, more expensive, and less effective than the private sector at pretty much everything.

there must be a lot of conservatives here thanking liberals for social security, oh, I forgot, as a conservative in keeping with your 'credo' you wouldn't accept anything from such a liberal agency, right? or like all conservatives who do, talk is cheap but don't miss out on the 'entitlements' right?

Bigot's ?
 
We were first of the new year in 1975 in chicago to get are license to be wed,but not really.Back then they made a big deal about being first of the new year.Are pictures were on the front page of all four news papers and also all the major local tv stations filmed the event.We had went early but not that early as others who had camped out to be first.When we walked in city hall a older gentlemen tugged at my arm and asked are you here to get a marriage license? Yes I said and he said follow me and into the elevator we went.The man was the press secretary for the cook county clerk.As we were going up I said the line was long how could we be first?His reply was we were the first white couple.I was shocked but went anyway.To this day I feel I should have came clean when the press was there but didn't.Now this man may have done this on his own but I think his boss told him what they wanted.This is when I learned how dishonest the Democratic party in chicago was.They are the party of the minorities but they didn't want them on the news.Now I'm sure I will get blasted again but sometimes the truth hurts.

perhaps you are not aware of the recent shift in social security 'entitlement' payments

New Retirees Receiving Less in Social Security Than They Paid In
"New Retirees Receiving Less in Social Security Than They Paid In"
looks like recent and future retirees have nothing to thank fdr for

That is horrible and I am sorry you have to carry that memory especially when it is associated with your wedding. I am not sure that the same thing may have happened with republicans in charge. There are a lot of bigots from both parties out there. It is however, a great witnessing story.

Well, in my opinion, you have overcame any misstep by bringing it out to educate people of what is really the bad in some of us.

Sounds to me like a rogue bureaucrat. In 1965, institutionalized yes, in 1975, hard to believe.
