Artful Dodger: ROFL.....i think USA is in for a real lot of trouble somehow

Bernice:  Yep, the left wants it to become a socialist country and they want to destroy the constitution.  They are well on their way.

Artful Dodger: hehehehehe... we have a blog with one crazy Aussie lady as our only subscriber!

Czuch: who crazy? MOI??? never

Bernice:  Yeah but we love ya for it! 

Bernice: Hey you tell them girl.

Foxy Lady: ROFL

Foxy Lady:  woooo hoooo now we have two girls up here.  Welcome to Dan and Czuch's blog.  Or Czuch and Dan's depending on who you ask. 

Artful Dodger: This board is getting entertaining. Did i spell that right?

Foxy Lady: Nope

Dark Vamp:Hmmmmm guess i got brain fog

Foxy Lady:  You got it right.  ;)  Yeah politics can be light fun as well as tense.  I like it both ways. ;)

Artful Dodger: I love it when Bernice lets Chucky have it.

Foxy Lady:  Yeah, he can take it too.  She's our number one blog subscriber.  Wanna join the AD/Czuch fan club here?  All ya gotta do is listen to us ramble, and then disagree with us, and then sit back and watch us dismantle your arguments point by point.  Then Bernice comes on and puts us in our place and we start all over again.   It's great fun!  

Artful Dodger: Ok but i'm sure i'll need Bernice's help.

Foxy Lady:  Yeah cept if you told me to jump, I'd probably ask how high.    Did you know that Obama is against unreasonable gun control?  He's being accused of being a "centrist."  That's a good thing for those of us on the right.  Pelosi wants him to move left but she really wants him to do her bidding.  Obama won't do that.  He's a smart politican in many ways.  I hope he works with the republicans on this "stimulus" / pork spending package.

Artful Dodger: Obama has a long hard road ahead of him.

Foxy Lady:  all of it uphill    I'd rather work with little kids.  

Artful Dodger: do I detect a little bit of sarcasm here

Bernice:  Just a little  ;)

Artful Dodger: HAHAHAHHA.....you silly buggar :)

Czuch:  Lol, and she's on too.  Guess I shoulda gone easy on the girls.    Those with BDS probably need to be handled with kid gloves. 

When the economy worsens, and when Obama's popularity falls, they will see we were right.

BTW, you remember how Bush was criticized for his lack of response in light of Katrina?  Well, where has Obama been with respect to the ice storms the east has had?  People have died and FEMA has done nothing!   But we won't hear the left cry out over that. 

Artful Dodger:

We had ice storms up here recently too, and a really big one about 10 years ago, people without power for 5 weeks!!

Thing is, we are a self reliant lot up here, we have generators and plenty of deer meat in the freezer (hahaha) and we look out for each other.....we are not a bunch of cry baby whiners (except for those liberal elitists down in the big city)

But we got nothing in the way of Federal help, and media sympathy.... 1 because it was under a media democrat, 2 because we werent out there pissing and moaning about how screwed we got for living below sea level and still refusing to evacuate when a hurricane is on the way!?!??!?

Hey wait???? I have an edit button??? Means only one thing... someone bought be a membership????

Ok fess up, who was it????

Czuch:  I totally agree.   People need to stop looking for the government to be their "day care" provider and look out for themselves.  My point was that you won't hear the left complain about Obama's failure in the current crisis because they only play the blame game towards the other party. 

We had a state of emergency here in December.  We were snowed in for about two weeks.  Unless you had 4 wheel drive, you were stranded.  Fine for someone like me as I was prepared (and had 4 wheel drive) but there are some neighbors (older than me types) that needed to be cared for.

I think you and I would agree that the federal government shouldn't be helping the little old lady next door.  The neighbors should!  And the local government should.  We should first help ourselves, be prepared, and then seek to help others.  That's the American way.

Had New Orleans made the right decisions, had they been prepared, had they looked out for each other and worked together, had their LOCAL government officals got off their butts and done their jobs, people would have been far better off.  But they sat on their hands too long, either made no decisions or stupid ones, and then when things went south, they blamed Bush.    Now that a similar crisis (41 people have died so far) is facing the mid-west, it's Obama's turn to take some blame.  But where are the voices?  Proof that the left is dishonest and cares about ideology more than country.

Artful Dodger:

Its the same ol.... biased to the left, main stream media... and sheeple (no, not she people, but sheep people) who blindly listen to the left wing media... and liberalism, that subscribes to the "government will take care of you" philosophy.... and again, sheeple, who again fall for the left wing garbage that the government will take care of them, and that it is the governments(federal) responsibility to take care of them... and again, biased media, that tells the sheeple that conservatives dont care about them, and will take away their social security and their welfare checks, and their affirmative action... blah blah blah...

You think this country is in bad shape right now???? This is nothing but a long over due correction, it is a good part of an economy that is basically doing what it is supposed to do, and there are no fundamental problems that can be, or should be fixed by throwing good money after bad....

You want to see a country truly in bad shape, truly in need of reform and change, just give us a few more years to see what social liberals will do to us!!!

Czuch:It will be their own undoing.  The republican party will go back to its roots and get it together and in two years, the elections will put more republicans on the hill.  Then in 4 years, unless Obama has turned things around, he's out.  8 years of Obama may just be too much for the stability of the USA.  The first 100 days will tell us alot but so far many things he's done tell me that it's still business as usual in Washington.  Where else can you cheat and lie on your taxes and then be put in charge of them?  Maybe Obama can't find a qualified democrat who is also ethical.  That's why he has to appoint a few sleeze balls to his cabinet.

Artful Dodger:

unless Obama has turned things around

I just dont think its going to matter.... the economy will turn around with or without Obama... but I think he will end up making it take longer than it would just leaving things alone, not to mention all the debt we will incur getting there.

I am still waiting for some anti trickle down, big bad oil company liberal to explain to me how giving the Banks and other big companies butt loads of my cash in a bail out isnt exactly what they complained about for years under Bush?

Czuch:Don't hold your breath.  It is a bit two-faced about them isn't it.  But even if a lefty sees the contradiction, they are too committed to their ideology and too arrogant to admit to it. 

Artful Dodger:lol....you think they'll admit it?

Bwild:Not in a million years.  They'll blame Bush or the Republicans.    I suspect some of the nuts on the left will find ways to continue to blame Bush even into the next decade! 

Czuch:Let's not forget bwild is here, Pedro, and Vikings.  ;)  There will be more. 

Artful Dodger: yeah... but the fun ones, like the bleeding heart girls, and the fence sitter moderates who always support the liberal agenda, the ones who cant support their beliefs in any logical discussion, those are the ones I miss!

But, their absence and silence says volumes about their opinions.....

On another note, it is amazing that all this history talk and most everything about this election was based on race and voting in a black man for the first time...... just another example how liberals are all about "feelings" over substance and policy... as long as everyone feels good about themselves, who cares about anything else!

Czuch:That is an accurate description of the democratic party. 

Nancy Pelosi will get knocked off her pedestal and when that happens, I will throw a party!
