I was not actually retorting to your post but something analogous. if unemployment insurance is steadily paid into for 20 or 30 or even 10 or 5 years, and you are laid off, and no jobs exist, is it unreasonable to expect more extensions than say someone who worked 6 months?

From a majority in the House and Senate to a minority in both.

What would YOU call it?

November--who knows. Dems are on slippery ground, and the Repubs have nothing to offer in its place.

Up to the Independents, most likely. I'd like to see a lot more run.

Tim,

That is not quite accurate, even Reid was suggesting that the Repubs offered a whole shit load of input, at least at the square table the other day he suggested it.

So which is it? They offered nothing, or they participated in the process? I guess it depends on which audience Reid, Pelosi, and Obama are talking to.

Sorry, Thadius. I was talking in reference to the 2006 election.

As regards the health care issue, you already know my stances there.

I figured as much, didn't mean to call you out particularly. I just get tired of hearing from both sides that the other is doing nothing or offering nothing. The problem isn't that either side isn't offering anything, it is that the idealogues are so stuck in their tracks that they refuse to move to either side of the road to let the real traffic of reform pass them by.

You know, I'm still trying to figure out out where the fuck you guys were when Bush was running yearly deficits and doubling the national debt.

Oh, I forgot, as Cheney said deficits don't matter.

Unless, of course, there is a Democrat in the White House.

No, he wasn't. While he only flushed our tax money down various shit holes at a third the rate that Obama does, still it was way too much.

Bush was no Conservative, its true.



There was someone on here who used to love the phrase "threw him under the bus".

Any idea who that was Sanity?

Which highlights the new policy of DC politics (both sides), "You are either on the bus, or under it."

Yeah, I'm afraid so.

"Our way or no way" can only result in "If you want anything done, you'll just have to ram your version down our throats."

So it's do nothing or say, "Well, OK......"

And that's no defense. It's a poor way to do things. But perhaps the only way these days. Pity.

Actually, New York is one of the states that pays more to the federal government than it gets back.

It's that damn simple. Now pay us back.

It is not about Obama.

It is all about Goldman sachs and JP Morgan.      The prez is a front man for the NWO, not the true decision maker.

Research is not your strong suit, is it.

Here ya go--from The Tax Foundation:
http://www.taxfoundation.org/press/show/22659.html

33 states and the District of Columbia get back more Federal tax dollars than they pay in. Ironically, considering the Republican Party champions low taxes and cutting Federal taxes, 21 of the 33 states who get back more than the taxpayers in those states pay in are also states who voted for John McCain in 2008. In effect, the wealthier Blue states are subsidizing poorer, more rural Red states...much as urban counties usually subsidize rural counties on the state tax level albeit the red-leaning suburbs of urban areas subsidize the dark blue super-urban inner cities of metropolitan areas. The blue city propers typically are net receivers of federal funds.

States with large military or Federal labs (typically in the South and West) appear to get more in Federal dollars. Large urban areas receive substantially more federal funds in the form of social welfare spending, as do minority-heavy rural areas particularly in the South. Large, urban states pay more in than they get back although it's unclear whether the larger outlow derives from red- or blue-minded taxpayers in those urban blue states (eg Wall Street in NY).
