Both parties do this... when I was in the Army, the repubs put the military members into a different bucket to change the employed/unemployed numbers.... I think this was during the Reagan years. Its all a game, one that many people are tired of.

Yes both parties do it and have done it and this particular group will do it bigger and better than everyone but it does not change the facts at all. The way I see it the only thing lingering from the BUST is the left over clean up in housing and kickin this bunch of thugs to the curb permanently!
The financial markets have returned to valuation of their "Intrinsic value" as predicted and employee production is back up to a positive number with some even putting a little extra effort into their employment so they have a chance at keeping it! This factual stuff just drives the Liberal Idiots crazy beyond words as it all proves the basis of Capitalism are sound in spite of them!

Its all a game, one that many people are tired of. Yes, both parties do it and this administration campaigned on CHANGE. Most people were hoping that CHANGE would be less of this stuff, instead they are finding it has increased a great deal. It already was increasing with each election and it finally reached the breaking point with the people. That is one of the reasons many want a complete turn over in Congress! For an administration that has campaigned on openness, they haven't come even close.

No it is just another socialistic venture by one of your Union groups! Hang in there cause the Tea Party group can't be far behind on this mess and who knows if we succeed in electing people who look out for all of us and begin to enforce our immigration laws like the good sheriff tries to, this organization may become extinct!

If Mubarak crushes the pro-Democracy movement and Obama does not cut off aid, the left should start an insurgency in the Democratic party. If they don't, there is no left left.

biggovernment.com/chartsock/2011/02/03/white-political-ralliers-call-for-lynching-of-black-justice-sorry-msm-no-tea-in-this-blend/ White Political Ralliers Call for Lynching of Black Justice (Sorry MSM, No Tea in this Blend)by Christian Hartsock I recently took a two-day trip down to Palm Springs to attend an event called “Uncloaking the Kochs” hosted by Common Cause. Accompanied by my dear friend, former assembly candidate Alvaro Day, I traveled as an independent investigative journalist, and not in any official capacity on behalf of Big Government or Breitbart.com (though I was pleasantly surprised to run into a familiar friend of mine on rollerblades jovially inviting everyone to Applebee’s). Among Common Cause’s, well, common causes, are campaign finance reform, net neutrality, outlawing the filibuster, promoting cap and trade, and in this particular case, herding a mass of protesters outside a nearby hotel to yell at Charles and David Koch for being conservative and rich. Unfortunately several “haves” have missed the memo that you’re not to be both rich and conservative at the same time, and that bankrolling your pet causes is an extra no-no if you’re conservative—thus exempting left-wing billionaire philanthropists George Soros (from whom Common Cause has received $2 million over the past eight years) Peter Lewis, John Doerr, Julian Robertson, Nicolas Berggruen, and many others from being yelled at too. At the morning panel event featuring UCI Law Dean Erwin Chemerinsky, activist Jim Hightower, Center for American Progress journalist and “Koch Brothers expert” Lee Fang, California Nurses Association co-president DeAnn McEwan, and President Obama’s former green jobs czar Van Jones, we were forewarned of the impending demise of both the environment and democracy at the hands of corporate lobbyists and their government shills. There was eerily no mention of GE, AEP, Goldmann Sachs, Pfizer, Aetna, Alcoa, Xerox, Google, Motorola, IBM, or several other corporate giants who profit at taxpayer expense via their K Street connections to the Obama White House as well as the very economic and regulatory policies they lobby that these Common Cause panelists commonly endorse. But I’m sure that’s only because no one wanted to point out the obvious. Right? We were then ushered outside to the parking lot across from the hotel in which the Koch brothers were holding a meeting, whereupon we were encouraged to yell at the building, decrying not only the Kochs, but Justices Clarence Thomas and Antonin Scalia for their Citizens United ruling. Oh, and Fox News while we were at it. We were joined by at least half a dozen busloads of public sector union members and common demonstrators from AFFCE, The Ruckus Society, 350, Greenpeace, Code Pink, and the Progressive Democrats of America, among others, without whose valuable contributions to the yelling, the rally would’ve been just a lousy bust. Video camera in hand, I purposely engaged them to get beyond their programmed talking points, only to find some rather colorful agenda items – particularly for Justice Thomas. In post-Tucson America, where for the past few weeks a chorus of voices on the left have amplified their attacks on the “racist tea party,” “racist conservatives,” “racist Republicans,” and their “violent, irresponsible rhetoric” to the degree of accomplice-to-murder accusations, I figured a left-wing rally such as this would also be a demonstration of the left’s ideal, self-proclaimed rhetorical composure. And having done extensive video coverage interviewing demonstrators in over fifty tea parties in forty-five cities in twenty-five states yet finding a total of zero instances of the “racist” and “violent” stigmas the left relentlessly assures us are true, I certainly didn’t expect to find almost every imaginable instance at one single “progressive” rally. But who was I to make presumptions? So if on top of perpetuating the perennial narrative of the exclusively right-wing corporatist machine, “progressives” want to further their accusations of alleged predominant “racism” and “violence-baiting rhetoric” in the conservative movement, then game on. ------------------ --------------------------------------- We see where you get your talking points, JD. I bet you wish you were at this event with your fellow KOOLAID sipping Marxist focused Bots.

Andrew Breibart is a famehound who's career will be short and forgotten IMO. Do you even know Breitbart's history? He has had a career longer than most already. Given the genre he has worked in - he is quite courageous for taking on the folks he does take on / call out.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andrew_Breitbart"Andrew J. Breitbart (pronounced /ˈbraɪtbɑrt/; born February 1, 1969) is an American webmaster,[2] commentator for the Washington Times, author,[3] an occasional guest commentator on various news programs who has served as an editor for the Drudge Report website." "In 1995 Breitbart saw the Drudge Report and was so impressed that he emailed Matt Drudge. Breitbart said, "I thought what he was doing was by far the coolest thing on the Internet. And I still do."[4] Breitbart described himself as "Matt Drudge’s bitch"[10]" Let's see, Breibart is a Gen X punk who works for the Moonie Washington Times and kisses scumbag Matt Drudge's ass...Yeah, lots of credibility with me.

I like Breitbart. He gets the lefties in their own words and on camera, where the MSM gives them a total pass. He exposes the unbelievable hypocrisy of the left and the media. Is it any wonder that JD thinks he and Drudge are "scumbag"? I mean, he only stopped using the term "teaba**ers here because he had to. Congratulations, Dolphie. No one can expose JD for who he is like you do.

Must be your negative obsession with the Tea Party that confused me with the rhetoric of JO, VOR and Bruce. Good for you for drawing a line, but somehow I can't help but think after your velocity of posts that I have read that the sentiment is the same.
