Pubert:

If your party affiliation is UNAFFILIATED in Jersey, you can still vote in the primary next month. If you don't mind becoming a Republican.
  6:16pm
Marmalde kitty:

Obama dreamt this lastnight?
  6:19pm
the glowing one:

so was this speech from before his term?
  6:19pm
Pubert:

If you're registered as something other than what it takes to vote in a given primary, you have to switch 55 days before said primary in Jersey.
  6:25pm
the glowing one:

hahahaha
  6:26pm
depressed Persian cab driver:

The key is confronting the nonsense, and you are doing it perfectly!
  6:27pm

Instant Runoff Voting.
Protects the watershed.
  6:28pm
Marmalde kitty:

  6:29pm
darue:

instant runoff elections or some preference ranking is essential

  6:31pm
darue:

TAX capital gains MORE than wages.
  6:32pm
seang:

yet another speech from this phony
  6:32pm

require the FED to give near zero percent loans to americans for debt consolidation/mortgage refinancing. That is the number one thing they could do TOMORROW.
  6:34pm
seang:

occupy obama
  6:34pm
Andrew in NC:

what you are saying is the answer is take money from people who have earned it and give it to people who haven't earned it
  6:35pm
Pubert:

Is this a Church of England sermon?
  6:35pm
darue:

@Andrew in NC : not I, nothing I've said implies that at all.
  6:37pm
kata:

the idea that america is the best at everything is a huge part of the problem of america's view of itself. maybe we actually suck at lots of those things. For example, healthcare in the US totally sucks.
  6:37pm
Andrew in NC:

@darue higher min wage with tax credits. the tax credit money comes from somewhere, the gov has no money only the right to tax
  6:38pm
Pubert:

These kids with their wine.
  6:38pm
I Want to Get Drunk and Pass Out:

  6:40pm
Pubert:

Stupid shores.
  6:41pm
Checkers:

My human Tricky Dick.
  6:42pm
Pubert:

I want to hear a heckler yell with conviction, "Yeah, but do you breed the American saddlehorse?!?"
  6:42pm
darue:

@Andrew in NC :: so what, of course governments tax, that is universal to human civilizations. you pay to participate. you don't want taxes, stop using the services of that government, which is the civilization you inhabit. pay it or leave it.
  6:43pm
depressed Persian cab driver:

For once this year I got a bonus. Taxed higher than my regular pay. I feel like the message is "don't work more than necessary." Sorry, of course the Newts of this world would like me to cast off my personal values for a bit less pain. But the difference to me is this: I have a real family and he does not. So I will pay up with a smile. No kidding!
  6:46pm
Andrew in NC:

@darue taxes are fine no problem there its what they are used for taking from someone to give to another is wrong the gov needs to provide services to everyone parks roads defense things we ALL use not just for the poorest (Bush got this wrong too)
  6:51pm
Andrew in NC:

Bush said everyone has the deserves to own a home (we have that right if you have worked and earned enough), then we had the housing crisis, the child credit, and now people make income from the IRS that's not right maybe they should get all that they payed in but not more
  6:55pm
Pubert:

This speech will run through the next few programs.
  6:55pm
darue:

@Andrew in NC :: we HAVE to help the poorest. It's our moral duty, do you propose people be left to die of exposure and hunger in the streets? Or would you prefer they be hauled to secluded sites to die? Anyway, such expenditures are a SMALL part of the budget and costs individuals little. You've got to realize there's a serious lack of opportunity out there right now. Too much capital is tied up in useless fake financial derivative gambling right now, due to an elitist, out-of-touch, deluded finanical class; that is one reason why capital gains should be taxed at a far higher rate then a person's hourly wages.
  6:56pm
Deportees Club:

In America the law is a piece of ass. You fuck it or get fucked.
  6:56pm
Pubert:

Everyone will qualify for a chicken-fried steak and an oyster poboy.
  6:56pm
seang:

talk is cheap
  6:57pm
Pubert:

De, that's why Stallone said "I AM the law."
  6:59pm
kata:

I'm with you @darue, and btw, people are already dying. I heard a report yesterday that people who are losing their medicare are committing suicide. you just won't hear about it.
  6:59pm
rah:

Chris T all up in this piece!
  6:59pm
darue:

elect a congress that will work for the people, Obama and the 2008-2010 dems were a disappointment, and Obama foolishly disbanded his political machine and did little to support his party, which he is supposed to be the leader of. Still, we're stuck with him at the moment, but we CAN make sure _quality_ Democrats are elected to congress. That, though it's not "sexy" is the most important fact over the next year. We must take the congress.
  6:59pm
rah:

It's Ted Jabroni
  7:02pm
Heywood Jablome:

Ted's my cousin!
  7:03pm
darue:
