How do y'all feel about Barack Obama?

Cmon Deadduck, I am not a socialist, I am a fiscal conservative and a social liberal which means it is difficult to find folks to vote for. Both parties have gone to the extreme on their positions, so the Libertarian party or some moderates in both parties are who I hang my hat on (I wrote in John Kasich for President in 2016).

Sallen, glad you have joined the discussion, I also don't recognize many of the liberal policies of the Dems today, but I also don't know how in the hell the Pubs were hijacked by the Trumpsters. Ronald Reagan is my political hero, and I can only think he is turning over in his grave at the state of the Pubs today ( Reagan hated those Commie bastards and could not fathom a former KGB officer directing the Russian government to elect our current President).
Someone who would question how Trump people feel about Hitler and bin Laden can’t find his ass with both hands, imo. You are certainly a social liberal, but nowhere near a fiscal conservative, imo. I wish you could ask your political hero about the welfare state you endorse. My guess is he’d explain fiscal conservativism right after he broke your jaw.

It is very difficult to be an honest social liberal and an honest fiscal conservative simultaneously. You want government to provide services and welfare to the lazy, broke, pregnant, and illegals. And how do you want to pay for all that free shit? Tax the hell out of hard working people. You need to self-examine your preposterous ideological claims. You do not know where you really stand.
 
You are so wrong here. I have posted a lot, find one post where I have said I want the government to provide services and welfare to the lazy ,etc. What I have said is I want the government to stay the hell out of my life. Don't take all my money and re-distribute it, don't tell me who I can and can't marry, don't tell me what I can do on certain days of the week, and If I'm a women, don't tell me what I can and can't do with my own body.

And the reason it’s hard foryou to find fiscal-conservtive/social-liberals to vote for is because the only place they exist is in your mind. You can not fund a socially liberal welfare state in a fiscally conservative manner. It never works. And if you start screaming Sweden, Denmark, you better have your facts straight.

Are you in favor of welfare for illegal scum?
How about welfare for knocked-up whores?
Aid to mothers of dependent children?
Disability for every worthless ****er faking a limp?
SNAP for nearly 50% of the country?

Nevermind. I will not believe you anyway, because you have convinced yourself you can have a welfare state and be a fiscal conservative. Can not argue with somebody who convincingly bullshits himself.
 
Sweden and Denmark have very high tax rates, so they don't meet the threshold of fiscally conservative.

You are correct, my utopian (big word for you Trumpers, Deadduck, you may be the only one who knows what it means) party does not exist today.

Thirty years ago, the Pubs could qualify, but they (along with the Dems) have been hi-jacked by the extremists to their far sides.

My hope is that folks will be so fed up the Pubs and Dems will return to their greatness of years ago. If not, then a third party should arise that will challenge these two extremists and have a chance to steer our nation in a proper direction.

Damn, that was hard to write, too many bourbons and watching the Braves game will take its toll on a old fart like me.

Ronald Reagan was attacked by the left just as Trump is today. I loved Reagan but he had no where near the burning shithole of a country to repair that Trump inherited less than two years ago. I admit both Bush presidencies were bad due to their continued spending and forcing us into larger debt as they neared the end of their respective terms. They were both Globalist and working towards the new world order. Then obama got in and did his best to destroy the sovereignty of the United States of America. He dropped our credit rating for the first time in the history of this nation, created more government programs and czars (just like their socialist heroes) to run the ever expanding government. He really divided this nation like no other before him, He left our soldiers at risk and broadcast the plans for drawdown and missions like a dumbass, or one who loathes the military. He caused the inner city youth and elders alike to hate police officers (even more than before) by spreading false narratives. He emboldened our enemies to push us around and gave ever increasing numbers of illegal aliens from all nations more rights and welfare than existing US citizens that were marginalized because their votes were not as important as capturing the growing number of dependents he brought in for the democratic party. He was married to a she-male and was the biggest wuss we have ever had to represent a male in the history of this once great nation. On top of all that he was an arrogant, near do well, that never worked an honest day in his life. He is the posterboy for a freaking snowflake POS. He could not speak well without a teleprompter either. Watch that pansy throw out the first pitch in his mom jeans and tell me you were not embarrassed. He also was the WORST president ever, and it was not even close. Jimmy Carter breathed a sigh of relief because obama knocked Jimmy off that perch. To top it off he mocked GOD and the hard working citizens that make this nation great. hillary would have been even worse if you can believe that.
Yes Trump is a fighter and we needed him to do what he is doing, Reagan would not have been as effective as Trump is today, politics have gotten way to crooked and self serving for niceties to accomplish anything like Reagan did in his days. I think Reagan would be proud of the way Trump stands up and protects this nation and it's hard working, patriotic citizens of all races, and creeds. Trump is exactly what this nation needed, and I do think God placed him in office to correct the ship. Did not mean to write a book , but I was on a roll, so there you are. Good night my Dawg brothers and beat down usc east.

If only I could like this more than once sir! Well said!
 
How do ya'll feel about Barrack Obama?

You should have asked the Trumpers how they feel about Hitler or Osama bin Laden, you would have gotten a more positive response.

The answer is simple: Obama destroys their clung to belief of white supremacy over the other races. The US is a country for whites to rule. Non whites can cut my grass, clean my house, wash my car, but don't think about being my President.

Whites started this country, but you non-whites can stay, as long as you stay in your place. That is the Trumpers creed.

Yes, Whites started this country, how has building great nations worked out in Africa?

Haha Haha..... Funniest thing you've ever posted
It's actually not funny if you study African history. I've been to over 80% of the 50-odd countries there. There have been periods in many countries when things seemed to be on a good track. They have never lasted, mainly due to corruption and poor planning. The boundaries are artificial, largely created by colonialists, and mix tribes who hate each other.

I do not follow it as closely as I used to. The 2018 Fragile States Index compiled by the US think tank Fund For Peace lists 35 African countries in its top 50. Fragile State is sort of the new PC term for "Failed State". The top two are South Sudan and Somalia.

It would be difficult to point to a single long-term success story among the African countries. A handful seem to have the wheels on the wagon, but it has never lasted in Africa. Rwanda, Burundi, and Botswana, maybe. Algeria, which is not sub-Saharan, maybe Mauritius, which is an island nation. It's a sad story.

First, you started the name calling saying that all Trump supporters where racist which is disgusting, weak minded, and totally untrue. 2. Funny you would call me a pro life person sick when you promote and support KILLING babies. You are delusional. You call me sick for rightly pointing out that you support killing babies. You live in a twisted sick reality where me calling you out is sick but you sticking a needle in a babies head and sucking there brains out and vacuuming the remains into a garbage disposal is just a-ok and your right. YOU FREAKAZOID. 3. You have also lost it when you claim to be fiscal conservative. You try to prop up O's economic record which was disastrous and socialist in its tilt. High tax, govn control, etc. 4. I agree that Bush was a poor president. But O was the worse. O' has caused much of the division we have in the country today with his community organizer Saul Alensky tactics that you dims have adopted. Look at his treatment of police while he was in office. Look at moosechelles "for the first time in my life I am proud of my country" attitude, (which he embraced), look at his open borders polices. Just to be clear (I DO NOT CARE WHAT COLOR IMMIGRANTS ARE) it should be done legally and we should limit it to people that will come in and assimilate, (not have parades waving Mexican flags) and not go on gov. assistance. I have paid taxes for 40 years and have never taken a dime in gov benefits. Yet many of these ILLEGALS come here and jump on the social services wagon train ON top of that, you dims when scream every election about pubs gonna take grandma's social security when you idiots are the ones that give it to millions that have never paid a dime into it. 5. You need to do some serious reflection on your stances. YOU are a twisted sick brain washed dim. Just get over it and admit it.

Maybe if Europeans didn't have their hands all over the continent, Africans could pick their own leaders. Not the ones Europeans and American governments pick. And as far as "whites" building this country all by themselves, I call bullshit.

There were some native Americans that were instrumental in building this nation founded on God's principles. You are correct sir.

Colonialism ended over 50 years ago, but I knew you would point to the single white determiner for Africa's failures. 90% of Africa is incapable of governing itself even when they pick their own leaders. It is the most corrupt region on Earth.

Also the most warlike. And as far as the artificial boundaries go, if you had no boundaries the endless "civil wars" would be called simply "wars". Another thing you should know is that I love the place.

Regan IS rolling over in his grave that someone as liberal and goofed up as you claim him as a hero! You don't stand for anything he stood for. John Kasich is a weak limp wristed big government dc swam creature. Would push us in the same direction as bush and O. Good grief man, I am so tired of your Trump/Russia collusion sickness. PLEASE take your evidence to mullhead so we can stop wasting MILLIONS! You sir are weak, washed in the wind by the liberal medias constant pounding on something that is not true 2 FREAKING years and a VERY BIASED special pros. and a VERY BIASED media and you F*ing dims have NOTHING>>>>>>>> GET A LIFE.... The FBI (pro killary) even said the Russian meddling was done with FACE BOOK POST Do you honestly think that is what won the election for Trump.. I feel for you if you honestly do. You need help.

You know, I started to reply along these lines, but finally crapped out at midnight. Can you imagine if an advisor told Reagan we need to come out strongly in favor of men marrying each other? And everybody knocked up, both the man and woman, whether married or not, should get a year off with pay for maternity leave. And we need to force Catholic hospitals to do abortions. He would have crapped the presidential chair.

1. All of the above sounds like Trump with the possible exception of your last sentence.

2. Nobody GAS what women do with their own body. Heck, I don't care if a woman terminates a pregnancy BUT if the fetus IS viable when taken, it should not be killed and should be given medical care and placed for adoption.

Women have the right to choose with whom they will and will not have a relationship. They have a right to choose a method of birth control but they should not have a right to end a human life simply because it hasn't completed it's trip down the birth canal.

As far as Obama goes, there is no way in hayull you are close to being a libertarian if you think he was anything other than a complete disaster. We got a dictionary definition of a fascist healthcare system under O. He used his "pen and phone" to issue executive orders that he himself said he didn't have the power to issue and he was a bandit in charge of the nation's treasure. O wanted to fundamentally transform a country that has provided the highest standard of living for the most people in the history of mankind by doing EXACTLY what you claim to oppose.

Yeah. And, woman: "Don't tell me what I can and can not do with my own body." And, "Would you mind having the taxpayers pay for what I want to do with my own body?"

Yep, a lot of young folks that claim to be Libertarians think it means you can do whatever you want but pass the bill along to others. If you think Thomas Friedman knows what he's talking about and know little to nothing of Milton Friedman, you probably aren't driven by liberty.

I agree with your points on O. You are absolutely correct as far as he goes... However, look up the Latin definition of fetus. That is a human baby. It is that babies body that is paying the price for the abortion, not the woman. If you can agree with killing a baby at anytime then murder should be legal. A baby born alive cannot survive without someone feeding and taking care of it, so, in essence, none are viable until you get old enough to acquire food and protect ourselves from the elements. I would take it you an atheist just like dawgcrap. God put in place the method of reproduction and the whole gestation process. That is a human Little One. Murder is murder is murder. You are a baby killer when you support killing babies. You however are a little easier to take because at least you have the O vs T argument correct.

Got a lot of sympathy for your position but I don't get upset about day after pills, etc. I'm not really a fan of any abortion but from a policy and pragmatic point of view, I think right to lifers could get a lot more traction if they would focus on the viability angle first. While I wouldn't classify myself as an atheist, I do try to avoid religion when discussing matters of the state.

Well as I said, when is a baby actually viable? If the mother doesn't take care of the baby after it is in born, how long is it viable?

According to the scientific data I have seen, a fetus born at about 23 weeks has around a 25% chance of survival with proper medical attention. At 24 to 25 weeks, the chances of survival go up to about 50%. So, If I were in charge of policy for a right to life group, I'd focus on somewhere between 22 and 25 weeks as a target of starting regulation. Honestly, there really is no comparison between killing a baby minutes after delivery and terminating an 8 week pregnancy, even though I find the practice repulsive.

My question was, if no one feeds the baby or takes care of the baby after a full term birth, how long is it viable? Just a couple of days. If someone has a baby and then doesn't feed it and it dies, they will go to prison. So my question. Just because the unborn baby needs its mother, why does it make it a "choice". The mother has decided to withhold care. How can you say one is ok and one is not. You may "feel" that way, but I assure you God does not.

I guess it boils down to wanting to have an absolutist position that virtually guarantees no regulation will ever be placed on killing babies up to the point of delivery and adopting a position that might resonate with people on a level other than religious and creating a coalition so large that limiting later term abortion could be realized.

As I mentioned, I would love it if abortions were eliminated but I'm not getting into a straw man argument between the difference in a baby in the womb that can't survive outside it's host under any circumstance and somebody starving a delivered baby.
 
Maybe if Europeans didn't have their hands all over the continent, Africans could pick their own leaders. Not the ones Europeans and American governments pick. And as far as "whites" building this country all by themselves, I call bullshit.
I understand what you’re saying and don’t disagree. But, so far my disappointment with the black community is they don’t seem terribly interested in policing their own. The fact that there are so many blacks born to single mothers and that so many celebrate thug culture is very discouraging. You know, you don’t see Jews calling themselves kikes or Mexicans calling themselves wetbacks. I just don’t get it. They also don’t seem terribly charitable. Unlike the countless whites who anonymously donate to schools, libraries and museums, blacks are more tightfisted and “look at me.” Sh*t is never going to change until the black community starts doing the right thing. Chicago is a f*ckin6 disgrace

Also, the first one born in...... well, nobody knows. Also, the first one to hate America because European colonialists screwed up Africa, which was pretty well screwed up to start with.

With the changes that have taken place in the last 30 years, I expect South Africa to dominate the world economically until global warming ends all life on earth.

They are headed to destitution and starvation. There will be wars and mass murders. Too bad. Mandela had it going there. Nelson, not his brain-dead, ultra-violent wife, Winnie. She actually officially endorsed necklacing. Savagely violent and corrupt person.
