While watching those old farts stumble all over each other it just becomes so clear, to me, that we need term limits.

Seems like that would be a change we could believe in.

I'm partial to term limits. It's right up there with campaign finance reform.

Sg

Term limits would just be an affirmation that our electorate is ignorant and deserves the jackasses that represent us.

We'd still get hosed, but by a fresh set of faces. We'd get hosed because we're idiots, and term limits won't change that.

Meet the new boss...............same as the old boss.

I think term limits are a great idea within reason.

Just another Democrap circle jerk!

Very....still got plugs Biden.

Did Boehner cry? I heard Obummer was signing autographs like a rockstar. lol

I didn't notice that but I have noticed how gray Obama's hair has gotten!

Stressful job running a country I guess.

All these "Term Limits" azzwipes also claim to support the constitution.


If they'd ever read the fukkin' thing they'd know that term limits are unconstitutional.

His ADHD kicked in half way through the preamble.

I haven't read the constitution for a while.

However, I don't believe that our founding father's had planned on a job in congress being a lifetime ride on the gravy train.

No one really got to the meat of the deficit problem...

Obiwan: "How do you balance the entire federal budget by tweaking the discretionary funding only? You don't."

I believe this to be true. But clealry there will have to be reductions in discretionary spending. And these reductions will have to come from other places in the budget as well.... defense, health services, the "entitlements" that no politician wants to touch with a 12 foot pole. But no one really said, with specifics, what they or their "colleagues" will reduce, diminish, eliminate, cut-back, etc.

As I detest both parties about the same for different reasons this was just food for the masses but then the show will start in earnest when that bunch has to vote to raise the debt ceiling. Between the blue dog D's ass being on the line and the irrational T baggers it will be interesting.

The debt ceiling will be raised as not doing so isn't a option but what spending reductions and how they are extracted from the R & D leadership's to get the votes ....................... it will be show time. The widow & orphan parade will begin in earnest.

If I am not mistaken the Blue Dogs all but disappeared in the last election. By Pelosi being voted in as the minority leader it signaled control of the hard left of the Democratic Party, was there another time in history when a sitting speaker lost control of the house and ended up controlling the minority? The tea party was owned by the Republicans by being locked out of any meaningful posts in congress, Bachman specifically. However the TP is pushing the republicans back to the right. The 2012 election is a very important election for this country. Obama knows it and has signaled he wants to get reelected. As we saw in the last election he like all politicians will say and do anything to get elected and last night was just the same as it ever was.


Calling for term limits are a short cut to thinking. If the public was involved at all levels and knew the people they were voting for it would not be an issue.

TJ the B dogs got hammered but mostly in the House. In 2012 a bunch come up in the Senate and they are backing up like crazy. From what I get of things is we can not tax our way out or just cut spending to get out either. Something has to give on both the left & right as to tax structure and spending priorities.

It looks like a world class game of chicken in the making or as it is said ........... SHOW TIME!

We don't need term limits, we campaign reform.
Until we can separate politicians from the influence of special interest money, nothing will change.
Special interests are ruining this country, what's good for general motors isn't necessarily good for America.

I see.

So with you it's "constitution this and constitution that" until it comes up to something that rubs you the wrong way is it?

STFU, hypocrite.

Only after the constitution's been amended to allow it, dumfuk.

I didn't even watch it, but I can list some of the points covered:

American Families
Fighting terrorism
Infrastructure
Bipartisanship
Reaching across the aisle
Working together
Creating jobs
Politics as usual
Tax relief for the middle class
Small business owners
Brave men and women in uniform
God bless America
Blah blah blah.

Hank, you're so full of schit it makes me want to puke. You act like you know what you're talking about but you're just as clueless as all of the other teabaggers.

Hank,

No party has the balls to touch S.S. Never gonna happen as elderly vote more and blah blah blah. Just a club to scare grandma to the pols to vote. Only thing I see happening is raising retirement age and upping the taxes. What hurts about that is the younger generation will now pay even more into the broken system that they will get little if any return on.

I hear all the biatching by the twenty somethings today how they got so screwed by their parents and grandparents generations. Most of the time I tell them to GFY as they still have it pretty nice but this is one way they have been. SS and medicare are some of the best ideas and worst things that have ever happened to the country.

Then go puke Hank, Go puke so you finally STFU and GTFO of PP.


The only ones here that aren't sick of you constantly either lying or painting yourself into a corner then trying to change the subject are your fellow lobotomite ditto-head Beck watching Teabaggers.

All three of them.

You're all secret closet-cases anyway.

Your loc: Your wife's closet.

That's some irony right there!

I see the liberals are into substantive communication again.

Pot

Kettle

Black

Yep, that was some speech, let's see what did O-Dumb-Dumb title it as?????? hmmmmmmmmmmmmm, of yes

Winning The Future

Does that dumb ass have a couple of Young & Dumbs at least check it for entertainment value

I don't spend my time calling people names and questioning their parentage because I believe differently.

No, but you always seem to notice liberals acting like assholes, while conservatives acting like assholes receive no commentary at all.

Coincidentally, wasn't that the name of the 2005 Newt Gingrich book? At least now we know bullet trains will save our country! If we still need money for roads and bridges, what happened to the stimulus money that was supposed to pay for road and bridge repair?

How about Mission Accomplished?

Drill baby drill?
It's really difficult to come up with any really stupid slogans, when all the good ones have already been used.

I washed the smudge off my forehead Dan.

No child gets a dime?

We have a mandate?

I'm kinda prone to "Coming Together"

Fits with his, "You girls on the left and you boys on the right....let's all mingle in the middle now"......reminds me of a Jr. High Dance. (Of course that goes back a ways.)
