   Redbarsoup, Why are you so filled with hate or can’t YOU READ? I never called you a liberal. I said you were using the liberal spin. And you still are. I never said what you are crediting me with. But hey if it makes you feel better, go ahead and lie. You appear to be very good at it.

   Any negative comments yelled during today’s event in D.C. was wrong. Any rudeness to any person was wrong.

   Now, if Obama was giving a speech at one of his campaign like events for the public and someone calls him a liar I’m fine with that. If Obama’s walking down the street and someone calls him a liar I fine with that.

   Oh and by the way when did you prove me wrong? See where I come from you only get credit for calling someone out on their BS, when you prove it’s BS. And just you saying it’s BS isn’t proof. And printing a link to a story about allegations isn’t proof.

   hahahaha. Saying I use liberal spin, this is the same person that said “Yeah the people saying racist things on Fox News’ facebook are just ALL liberals in sheep clothes acting like Conservatives.” You’re funny. That’s the BS I’m talking about. You might want to look up the definition of BS.

   Dana, your number one should read. 1) fire 10 employees so your company doesn’t go bankrupt. Better for 10 employees to be out of work than 60.

   Redbarsoup, Again proof…. Putting quotation marks around a statement doesn’t make it a quote. It doesn’t proof I posted it. That wasn’t my statement. I don’t even think you have paraphrased me correctly. I had made a statement saying that most outrageous statement are Fox news’ facebook page were hackers or people trying to make Fox news’ supporters like bad. Then I had reposted a statement made by facebook about hateful and outrageous posts. I never used the word ALL. A facebook employee had posted that many of the outrageous posts on Fox news page, MSNBC page and many others political sites can be linked to hackers. In some cases they found the offenders and learned posts where being made in hopes to discredit the group.

   Most and all have very different meanings. Maybe you should like them out.

   And again because you call it BS it doesn’t make it so.

   Then again go ahead and believe that Fox news viewers are so racist and so stupid that they use their facebook account with their real name and post hate ridden statements. (well a few people are) Oh a few that would be the opposite of most. Wouldn’t it?

   And again because you call it BS it doesn’t make it so.

   uhhh duh? Of course you don’t think what you say is BS or you wouldn’t say it. It’s all relative. Just because you say I’m using liberal spin “doesn’t make it so”. I pointed out that that people on Fox News’ facebook say racists things and that if you want a good laugh just go there, which BTW was response to some other idiot saying that liberals are just hateful people spewing out their hate…it was a RESPONSE to someone that said something which you are attacking ME for. But then again, it was a conservative saying it so of course you aren’t going to say anything to that person.

    1966 – all that country music makes me miss my aunts.

    Dana – I truly believe people just don’t understand how small profit margins are in many companies. My hubby and I have looked into many businesses and different types of business investments. The profit from owning a fast food restaurant is only between $50,000 and $100,000 if it’s successful. That’s with paying min wage and not giving employees health insurance. The money just isn’t there. The low profit is there for retail stores too. It costs between $250,000 and $1,000,000 to start a business. 60% of all businesses fail. Do people understand that it takes owners ten years just to make back their investment?

    @Cathy

    I’m soon to be a business…As soon as I finish my current novel, I’m going to be creating a publishing company, and publish my own book…If i’m going to be ripped off by my publisher, it might as well be me ripping me off…I’m not hiring ANYONE, atleast until Obama is no longer president…I plan to make a profit, even if it’s a SMALL profit…

    Red, Ok, last time. If you want to insult me fine. But do it based on my words not your translation of my words. And read all of the post. As I can’t remember every post. I believe my post was to both you and the other person. Anyone that uses posts on facebook to prove a group is racist or hateful is wrong. Heck it could be the same person posting under different names over and over.

    I know I’ve called out conservatives who’ve made incorrect statements. I may not call out everyone because some people are so nutty I don’t even read their posts.

    Today, I’ve learned that miracles do happen…I got a liberal to admit that Obama is a hypocrit…It’s amazing what liberals can understand….if you explain it to them on a second grade level…

    Good Morning

    10 degrees outside, nice cold wind, wind chill Minus 15…ahhhhh the warmth.

    This really happened… We’re at this nice restaurant and news was covering the inauguration, a man stood up and said, No dis-respect to the President and First Lady but would anyone object to turning it off? I would like to eat my nice expensive meal while on my Honeymoon without news from Washington where none of them get along and I want to set a good example for my bride”

    A waiter took his remote and shut off the TV’s and applause was loud enough to deafen the ears

    Hi ,all . Coffee, it’s 17 here & Brrrr ,we are just getting heat back on . TN is rocky & a lot of utilities are above ground. Weather, such as wind , can cause outages. We had all smoke detectors ,&, the cordless phones , beeping in the middle of the night. I never did get back to sleep.

    The Chicago Tribune had an editorial today re: President Obama’s spending.

    “Looming over all these issues, however, is the inescapable obligation to put our fiscal house in order — a topic the president largely ignored on Monday.

    Putting the nation on a sustainable fiscal path is essential to our long-term prosperity — as well as our ability to afford the sort of government commitments the president regards as indispensable.”

    Obama doesn’t deserve all the blame . Bush was a huge spender , as were other Presidents.

    Study: “Debt Problem Began Four Decades Ago”

    A new report from the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis reminds Americans that, contrary to the narrative that huge deficits and debt are merely a recent product of the Great Recession, the problem began over forty years ago.

    Daniel Thornton, the St. Louis Fed’s Vice President and economic adviser, finds : it’s steadily increasing government spending, not a lack of tax revenues, that’s causing all of this.

    Agreed, and I have never said it was his problem all by his lonesome, many of us for decades have been screaming to get a hold of budgets BEFORE it got to this point. But deaf ears and hot pockets Washington only continued to spend and not spend OUR money wisely.
