RR your attempt at being funny in your first post in this thread is way off base. And if you are serious about what you posted, then you should pack up and move to Venezuela where your socialist BS will be appreciated. But wait, Chavez will take everything away from you so you may not like it after all. At least here in the USA, you can spew YOUR BS knowing that veterans have afforded you the liberty to do so.

And please stop posting your BS. All you really want to do is provoke arguments. You have no real agenda. As far as I can deduce from your posts, you are probably a young or barely middle-age person who has never held any job of significance or made enough money to really impact your lifestyle. If you ever made more than $40K per year, you would be bitching about how much money the government is taking out of your paycheck. I have seen this situation several times before. My ex-sister-in-laws came from a very wealthy family. They were afforded a lifestyle in their early years (pre-teens) that few average Americans will ever see. They attended liberal colleges (Boston U.) and went on to spew liberal thoughts after graduating from college. They continued earning relatively little knowing their parents would bail them out. However, their views changed somewhat after they began making good money. One of the sisters became a lawyer and one worked on films. After a while, they began complaining that they worked hard and took home less than what they thought because of the taxes that were being taken out of their pay. Neither could understand why they had to pay so much in taxes.

"Social Security and Veterans benefits pay a bunch of lazy-ass moochers that need to get a job anyway.

I see them at the Social Security office and at the VA with their blue jean jackets with their guts hanging out smoking pot outside all the time. Thats the way they all are!

We don't need to worry about paying them, we need to give that money to the job creators.

Why should I pay for benefits and healthcare for these people? They don't have a right to have healthcare, this is not a welfare socialist nazi giveaway state!

The damn war is just a damn job anyway and where did I sign up for anyone to go over there anyway?!?"

That's how screwed up you republicans are, my rant had nothing even remotely resembling socialism in it. You morons are always crying about socialism and you don't even know what it is.

You don't know what my agenda is? It's to stop republicans from destroying this country.
You see Tex, it's not about convincing you or dennisrn or Gladman of anything, it's about exposing your right wing crap, your lies and racist views to the others that view this forum.
Some of the posts have over 400 views and one of them has just over 900 views, and so with your assistance, I have accomplished what I've set out to do so far. Much more work ahead for me.
Thanks for your help, I am indebted to you my friend.

You continue with your name calling and disrespectful posts even after I instructed you to cease.

Congratulations. You have earned another, and longer, vacation. Believe me, we will cherish the absence.

Corporations also are owned by a collection of individuals, retirement plans and institutional investors. So these big evil corporations are actually your neighbors, brothers, sisters, mothers, fathers, cousins and the grandma and granda pa.

This is EXACTLY what I've been trying to say--thanks for breakin' it down to straightforward language. If govt taxes corps, the corps pass the taxes on to consumers. (Oh, and when I'm abbrev. "corps" here, I'm meaning it to sound like "corpse," to be plural of "corp" unlike our lauded Professor President, who called a military corpsman a "corpse-man" in a speech instead of the centuries-old pronunciation of "cor-man"; RR, I'm not going to find a source for that--it's likely easy to YouTube).

every one please welcome our saviour who is going to deliver us from all capitalist evil. He is here to save the country from 200 years of successful capitalism by taxing the rich to give to the poor. I have many friends and business associates that span the political spectrum. While many times we disagree on social issues (which i will not list) we find that when it comes to financial issues we often agree more with each other then not. I do not insult them just because I disagree with them. I like to show them the numbers on who pays for this great country to continue and who is just sucking at the tit. My fondest reality check for one of my most liberal friends was when ther daughter got accepted to an ivy league school with a 4 year scholorship attached. Being that they did not want to interfer with thier adult daugther's life they did not feel it was thier responisibilty to make sure she got all of her paperwork done. Well thier daughter slacked off on the application and did not turn it in until the day after the deadline. She was mortified that the university would not accept her late application and when informed that the scholorship was no longer available she could not understand why they would not extende the deadline for her. She was given everything she wanted as she was growing with my friends sacrificing thier financial future for hers. Well it has reallly paid off. She is a waitrees at a shitty restuarant and lives with 2 other people in a crappy apt. Her parents have cut her off financially and have realized that all they were lead to belive about raising thier child was BS. Now do not think i am picking on a liberal only I have 2 sets of Conservitive friends who have blown hundreds of thousabds of dolloars spoiling thier children only to have it blow back in thier faces also. I leave you all with this one last thought.

I would like to thank the person who sent this comment from our newly departed member once again.

I guess he says in part;

"Social Security and Veterans benefits pay a bunch of lazy-ass moochers that need to get a job anyway.
I see them at the Social Security office and at the VA with their blue jean jackets with their guts hanging out smoking pot outside all the time. Thats the way they all are!"

What a crappy and totally worthless thing to post!!!

Ironically he does (did) not realize that many members on this forum are in that category. What he is failing to realize is that not only many of us who retired honorably from the service are here, but we have also gone on to a variety of post-service careers.. It really doesn't matter whether we have any political party associations or not and I take that comment as a very personal affront that he said what he said. Mocking the entitlements by law anyone is receiving just portrays a jealousy and laziness to work hard and earn what could rightfully be yours.

Miight I also offer the job employment ratings that were promised by someone during his campaigns have in reality actually gotten far worse than many would have ever dreamed. Some of their dreams are lost forever as they "sit in" the various offices across this Great Land.

I shan't go any further because he is not around right not to even attampt to defend his worthless self.

Hope everyone is having a nice weekend.

I would love to have been given the opportunity to ask him to go to the VA hospital and say the above directly to the veterans who are there getting medical help for injuries sustained while in the service. How much do you want to bet he would be the next emergency room patient if he had the balls to do so.

I can argue back and forth with someone like him all day and I really don't give a shit. I do it just to get them going. But when they cross the line and attack veterans I come apart. My grandfather served, my father served and I served. I lost a few friends in Iraq (I personally did not go but my friends did) and had many friends lose their parents during Vietnam. I will be damned if someone comes along and says such disrespectful shit. I wanted so bad to bitch slap him with one of Obama's books.
