Was that before or after USA, Inc. devolved into Dumfukistan? Have a nice weekend, I’m outa here.

The military budget of Finland wasn’t addressed, but I’d guess it doesn’t constitute a large percentage. After all, if you have an educated populace you only resort to war as the last option, and they are too intelligent to do otherwise.

He only got “snookered” because he wanted to, or is he that stupid?

You must have forgotten about that great job creating legislation that Clinton championed. It’s acronym was NAFTA and it spurred job growth everywhere but the USA.

Is that even possible? Will he have to publicly kiss Jamie Dimon’s ass for real, instead of metaphorically?

Bill Clinton gives hope to all of the trailer park trash that someday, if they lie effectively, betray the 99%, and sell out to the oligarchs that they too can become wealthy.

Well then enjoy playing with it. I think it’s an effort in futility because their comments are rarely, if ever, what I consider to “well reasoned”.

A report on Current TV last night ranked Finland in the top three countries in.re. education. They don’t allow school privatization, fund all public schools equally, and pay teachers(all have advanced degrees) properly for performing a valuable service. The highest ranking for the USA was 24th, but we don’t want our children adequately educated, they might object to becoming members of the armed forces/corporate killers.

Don’t feed the ignorant troll.

You’re reply was too kind.

Bingo! His policy positions certainly verify that. The mistake was to believe otherwise.

Thanks for the attention. It’s just that I can’t tolerate the willful ignorance displayed by the comment to which I responded. Tired of the blame for Bush the Lesser when we’re 3+ years into Obama’s term as “the most powerful man in the world”. Next we’ll have someone excusing Clinton for the legislation that allowed the real estate bubble and claiming that Bush did it. When partisanship rears its ugly head it’s necessary to combat it with reality.

It would be more accurate to state that it’s the US corporate govt. support for the Israeli government and it’s policies, rather than generalizing. Is it appropriate to place blame on a nation for the actions of its government? Probably so, when the nation claims to be a democracy. We are all degraded by the actions of our governments, over which we exercise no control.

It’s acceptable to point out that one of those Senators was John “Crash the Planes” McCain.

Glad to see you back here.

Obama will then campaign by stressing his strong stance on Homeland Security by touting his murder of Osama, his incarceration of B. Manning, and …
I’m sure there will be something else to complete the BS trifecta that will establish his rep as a tough guy and protector of the USA, I just don’t know what it will be, but it will probably be something else that circumvents the Rule of Law.

Does anyone ever wonder why Obama chose the advisors, economic team, chief of staff, AG, Sec. of State, Sec. of the Interior, etc. that he did? Does anyone wonder why he didn’t bother to purge the “W” obstructionists from the system? Does anyone wonder why Obama does the bidding of Wall Street, Big Oil, Big Pharma, the MIC, etc.? It’s because he embraces the Bush legacy and has been co-opted into the Bush crime family.

Or you could multiply 60 billion by the reciprocal of 43%, which is 57%.

Yeah, right! It’s just a coincidence that Obama taught Constitutional Law at the same institution where Milton Friedman’s Economic Department indoctrinated “The Chicago Boys” with the privatization policies of disaster capitalism(aka the Shock Doctrine).

Doesn’t Wasserman-Schultz head the DNC? That would be the same Wasserman-Schultz that just took a large corporate contribution to back the creation of a large private detention complex in Miramar, FL despite her constituency’s objections. Does that answer your question?
