Where are all the QUALIFIED black HCs?

Probably,or something...surely it wasn't the height of arrogance feeling he was surrounded by others with similar beliefs.

Nah, you'd have to become more arrogant than Obama o reach the height of it.


What tax bracket would this Midddle Class you seem to champion be in?


Several and their taxes went up


By having a concomitant effect on wages,Reagan broke the backs of unions,and if there was ever a time to make a run for the border that was the signal,and they've been coming in droves ever since.


Do you need to just post whatever leftist say about Reagan b/c you can't defend Obama's record?  Maybe unions shouldn't have become corrupt bodies themselves.


Why do the majority of working American women vote Democrat?  White power groups killing minorities?


Could be many reasons.  That doesn't make Republican policies anti-women.  Very rare now-a-days if a white power group does kill minorities, but Democrat supporting political groups like Planned Parenthood kill them by the thousands each year and by the millions the past few decades.


That dog won't hunt... The first $1 trillion deficit was under George W. Bush, and he was the one who built up the spending side and reduced the revenue side to create our current annual deficits.


Do you even know the difference between the debt and the deficit?  Republicans didn't like the spending during the Bush administration.  That is why we challenged it, and let the Republicans take it on the chin in 2,006 and 2,008.  The problem is now Obama is worse (accumulating more debt in 4 then Bush did in 8) and won't do anything about it b/c his constintuents won't challenge him on it.  He really doesn't seem to care about doing anything for the deficit either.


And today American soldiers patrol the streets of cities in countries Republicans brand as "Terrorist Havens" in order to fund American defense contractors with Republican stock holders.Cheney hatched the plot to invade Afghanistan,and that makes sense considering his Haliburton connection and the oil platforms they build in the Caspian Sea.The Afghan invasion was more about installing surveillance towers to watch China and Russia...lets not kid ourselves.After being discovered by American military advisors observing Afghani Freedom Fighters hold their own during the Russian invasion of Afghanistan,one leader stood out as being genuinely concerned for the well being of his country and people,his name was Osama Bin Laden,and he learned the art of terrorism right here in the good old USA...GH Bush was directing the CIA at the time and gladly signed off on it.The training of Bin Laden was to have him lead the entire effort to beat back the Russians and they did.Bin Laden was told in return for his victory the US would aid and help rebuild his war torn country.When the US reneged on that promise he vowed revenge...and that happened on September 11th 2001,an act he would pay for with his life.I'm a registered Independant.


Oh, because you're a conspiracy theorist Americans were supposed to die on 9-11 and nothing was to be done about Osama Bin Laden?  Regardless, of what support the CIA may have given them to fight the USSR, he didn't attack us before then.  Were they supposed to profile him as a Muslim and not help them figuring they would just commit terrorist attacks on the US one day?

I know the original thread wasn't supposed to go in the direction of the Wall Street Journal. But sometimes, it's good to let people get things off their chest. For that, my compliments to CBS-SPORTS!  Also, Stan Francisco and RightWingCon were AWESOME!  I know they didn't agree with everthing I said, but their factual evidence was great. Stan's account on Solyndra, was right-on!  I thought only hard-core Republicans notice the two-facedness of the "left". But as Stan and other have said, there's plenty of that to go around.

Very rare now-a-days if a white power group does kill minorities, but Democrat supporting political groups like Planned Parenthood kill them by the thousands each year and by the millions the past few decades.

Ouch, that hurts!  But so true, RightWingCon, so very true!  The killing of our young people (of all colors) has to stop!

   

Maybe unions shouldn't have become corrupt bodies themselves.

Another true statement!  When it comes to out-sourcing of jobs, Unions makes Bain-Capital look like angels. A long time ago, we needed unions to deal with corrupt and unfair Bosses and to end unsafe working conditions. But RWC is 100% correct, they've become corrupt and greedy, themselves. This is why many manufacturing CEOs, rather have overseas companies make their products. They just don't want to deal with the negotiations, rising health-care costs, increase pension demands, etc. We simply killed the golden goose! And with Obama-Care, we're now seeing more and more "full-time-workers", being laid-off or reduced to "part-time-status", so employers can avoid paying the extra cost of his program.

MY BAD!!!but thats another argument that holds no water...

Ronald Reagan tripled the National Debt,and raised the ceiling 17 times
and
George W. Bush doubled the National Debt,and raised the ceiling 7 times

Q)Can we agree that tax cuts don't pay for themselves?

Low Capital Gains Taxes fuel income inequality,not investment.
and
Income inequality has reached an 80 year high.

Q)Can we agree that most Americans pay taxes? 

The Estate Tax has virtually no impact on family farms and businesses
and 
The Federal Tax burden has hit a 60 year low

Q)Can we agree Obama inherited the residue of wreckless governing that now only benefits the wealthy?
and
Q)Will the Republican Party have a Latino candidate for US President in 2016? 

but it is funny we have a black president but yet we still have to hear who racist we all are! think about it, if you disagree with obama then u will be called a racist!...

Actually, if you're a racist AND you disagree with Obama, you're still a racist and should be called out as one!!!..

 

my point is that i think owners will hire the person they think will do the best job! if its a white person or a black person!...

Sure, because every business owner thats ever hired one person over another, ALWAYS does it because they think that person will do a better job...history has always shown that to be true, right??......thats why the NFL felt the need to apply a Rooney rule to its 32 white owners, because history has shown them to be so open minded and fair in their hiring practices concerning minorities...good thing no one in the NFL pays you for thinking...

BSTING, way to miss the point, my point is if you disagree with obama people will call you a racist. there is a difference! but iam sure you know that. well i hope you know that anyway

sure, because every black person ever hired most have turned out right as well right? yes i agree people have hired otheres of all color that have worked out well and not so well! when you hire someone it is a risk you take. my opinion is the nfl did it as a p.r. move, just like espn said sorry for the mcarron girlfriend thing! that was a p.r. move as well!.

what i dont get is people like you talk about the white owners, well they play millions of dollars to black players all the time, why? cuz the black players are the best for the job! and in some cases the players make more then the coach, so those white owners dont mind giving their white money to players when they are the best for the job and that helps their on field success but you think they have a problem giving their white money to a coach that will help that same success? yeah ok!! funny you talk about other people not thinking, look at yourself my man!!

thats why the NFL felt the need to apply a Rooney rule to its 32 white owners, because history has shown them to be so open minded and fair in their hiring practices concerning minorities...good thing no one in the NFL pays you for thinking...

31 owners are white.  Or the Jacksonville Jaguars Owner spends all his time at the tanning salon.  Shahid Khan is Pakistani-American.


   

I mean it's not like he got 90% of the votes.  He got a little over half.  53% and 51% of the votes

How many presidents elected have gotten 90% of the votes?  Obama is not the only president to win a close election.  GB was elected and lost the popular vote to Al Gore. The Largest % of popular vote is 61% by any president which was Lyndon Johnson.  So half of us are racist and the other half aren't in your opinion?



   

I'm starting to think CBS is conservative.  they won't let me post certain things. 



You're the one not accepting the reality that your Dems could care less about the poor.  Legislators have to power to help those people get their ids.  They likely have some kind of paper trail, whether it's Bills in their names, etc.  They can get them ids and waiver the fees based on income.  They just don't care about them except to the extent that they can exploit their situation to protect the voter fraud that benefits the Dems.  Just like the Dems will use public buses to get poor voters to the polls, but they won't use those same buses to evacuate them from a hurricane.


So you're trying to sell that they right will be OK with people getting IDs will a power bill in lieu of a birth certificate?  I find that hilarious and I don't believe that you actually believe that.

Um, b/c the Democrats run on the fake race card and fake war on women, while Republicans were running on the handling on the economy and the debt which will be over 20 trillion when Obama leaves office. Both parties ran on the economy and the debt.  The Dems had the bonus of the war on monorities and the war on women. The words and actions of the right don't suggest that they are fake and if they are you might want to teach the politicians on that side how to better express themselves.

   Do you actually want to deny that abortion clinics are put in minority neighborhoods?  The point is when an abortion clinic is put in a minority neighborhood, it's purpose is to target and kill minorities.


No, what I'm saying is they are just as prevalent in white neighborhoods as minority neighborhoods per capita and if they are put in minority neighborhoods to kill minorities then what are they so prevalent in white neighborhoods for?


      Do you think the Democrats don't cater to the rich?


If Democrats take any actions that help the rich in all likelihood the action was taken to help everyone.  Reps on the otherhand seem to believe if they help the rich the rich will help the poor which we find in most cases that doesn't happen.


      Obamacare hurts smaller companies far more than any impact to the larger companies who will just pass the costs on to us.


It's a small price to pay to get our citizens insured IMO.  you think that poor people going to the ER as their primary care doctor, the cost isn't getting passed on to you?  This is a Republican idea, since we will pay for the healthcare of the poor one way or another we might as well insure them.  The Heritage Foundation came up with the idea and Mitt Romney implemented it in Mass.  But of course Obama introduces it and it's the worst thing ever imagined.  Larger companies should have been supplying healthcare anyway, smaller companies will be exempt and we'll see how it truly affects midsized companies. 

I'm starting to think CBS is conservative.  they won't let me post certain things.  




   Oh I've looked I've kept up on the news.  Again, I've seen nothing to supress voting, but rather supress voter fraud.  You want to make the claim otherwise, provide it.

then you don't want to see it so I won't waste my time looking up all this info and posting it.  I'm sure it won't make a difference.    

It doesn't make sense to someone on the left, b/c that's one of their values they want to force everyone else to endorse.  Which is what they want SCOTUS judges to do, which is why it's so important to them, even not ruling based on the Constitution which is what their actual job is supposed to be.  At the same time, they'd be for a state not recognizing another state's concealed carry permit even though the 2nd amendment is in the Constitution.


Conservatives and liberals interpret the constitution differently.  It doesn't mean that one is following the Constitution and the other is ignoring it. 

The problem is not taxes , its the government spending, pure and simple. what the dems or any politican doesnt tell you is that we can not tax our way outta this mess. i know obama and others want to think they can but they can not! the problem i have with higher taxes is it just feeds the beast! it does nothing to cut spending or bring down our debt! but i think the people should keep more of what they make and tax over time at a lower rate instead of a higher rate, let the people that put in more then 40 hrs a week keep more of that income they make for working over those said 40 hrs. there are simple soultions out there, but common sense is a think of the past in politics and the blind sheep that follow those politicans


Everyone understands that we need to cut spending.  Responsibly cut spending.  The opposite of what you say is true too.  Just cutting spendign will not get us out of this mess.  There is tyoo much money already spent to just cut spending and thinks it's all going to work itself out.    

Nope, you're just wrong on this one and you come across as a pretty blind conformist to the Dems, so you're one to talk.  Regardless, this topic has become redundant, so I'll agree to disagree.


Voter fraud will not win any Democrats an election so it doesn't make any sense that they would be trying to protect it.  Voter supression will win Republicans elections so it makes complete sense that they would try it.  But we can agree to disagree.


Those aren't race based (despite how some are fooled into perceiving them as such) issues though, so you aren't supporting that point.


We can agree to disagree with that too.


  
Well I can't think of a white coach that's been able to keep their job with the same lack of success Lewis has had, but that isn't the point (and we aren't the one's playing the race card on this).  The point is that the 2 coaches that seem to have the most job security despite what happens are black which should also be recognized in this discussion.  Lewis for reasons unexplained.  Tomlin b/c the Steelers tend to hold onto their coaches for a long time.  The Steelers regressed pretty bad this year as the many players leftover from the Bill Cowher era are aging.  The Steelers seem to commit to their a long time, which will likely save Tomlin from receiving the Brian Billick treatment if the regression continues and becomes a trend.   


Mike Tomlin has been the coach for 6 years.  He's won a Superbowl, has been to another superbowl and has been in the playoffs 4 of his 6 years and won the division 3 times.  He was 8-8 last year, his worst but the 2 years before he was 12-4 matching his teams's best records.  His teams have been far more consistant than Bill Cowher's teams.  I know that you're not suggesting that he should be canned for one .500 season but if anyone in the league has earned a chance to turn things around next season it's Tomlin.  I don't think his longevity (if 6 years is really longevity) has anything to do with his skin color.  Lewis on the other hand, I'm not sure how he made it so long but he has made the playoffs 3 of the last 4 years.  That may have something to do with it. 

tampa, yeah everyone except thos doing the spending!! yes i agree with you just cutting spending wont get us out either, not that by itself but for me i think thats the first and most important step!

so stan , u really think the government should take half of someones estate when they pass?


I woulnd't say half but I'm not sure why anyone feels it's right that we all work our asses off everyday and the government takes 15% or so of it and some silver spoon kid never works a day of his life and doesn't have to give up any of what his father earned to the government.  It's income either way. 

Also, If these white owners start hiring a huge amount of black coaches just to satisfy people who think it is racist that there aren't enough black head coaches, then those same people will start arguing that there are no black owners and the black coach is still working for the white man. 

And did I just read someone say that it is upsetting their are 32 white owners? First off, there are 31 because Shad Kahn is not a white owner in Jacksonville. Secondly, is that really a big deal? If a black man wants to own an NFL team, he can. No one is stopping him from doing so. No one is stopping a white man from playing cornerback either except his skill set. Im tired of this race crap. Its 2013, not 1953.

tampa, about the death tax, let me be clear, i know they will take something, i just think anything above 20% is to much

Okay i'll give you another,there were more people unemployed the day after W left office than the 1st day he took office.


The GDP goes down and unemployement goes up under almost every Republican president.  Reagan was the exception where unemployment went down slightly.  Unemployment goes down and the GDP goes up under every Democtratic president. 

unemployment went down under carter?

and the unemployment rate now as the day obama took office, wow what a great job he did. why do people always need to do this repub vs dem thing? they are both failing the people badly. its funny that obama people are always so fat to point out bush, as if bush is a good person to point to or there lipnest test for president! bush sucked and this guy is no better! but if blaming bush or saying obama is better then bush, well thats like being the richest man in the welfare line!!


I agree that the entire political system fails us more times than not.  Both sides are resposible.  It's just my opinion that one side is more resposible than the other.  One side's lip service says they will help America and the other's says they will help the rich.  About blaming Bush, his mess still needs to be cleaned up.  It's going to be a long road to recovery.  If Obama doesn't get it done so be it but to say this mess is Obama's, I can't listen to. 

tampa, yes i agree bush did leave a mess, i have said he sucked! but for obama and most of the dems to just blame the last guy everytime something comes up, well i think it just fails the people. i dont think its just obamas fault, i just dont think he is doing much to help. we can agree to disagree tho
