if you believe that highlighted passage then truly, goddamn, you are by far the least intelligent poster in TSB.yeah, God knows everyone is retiring at fucking 55 nowadays.i dont need a source for that-all i need to do is walk around my goddamn school or call up any of the surrounding ESC offices that i worked with when doing economic development work in western NC.youre a joke; an armchair theorist and nothing more.you are right about one thing though! an obama landslide is truly in the making though not the one i think youre alluding too.[Edited on February 3, 2012 at 1:44 PM.

so 1.2 million people stopped looking for jobs and we have a 'net job growth'awesome way to 'grow' the economy. thanks mr bama', you almost had us

^^^Do you ever have anything to offer other than anecdotal evidence? You know who the armchair theorists were? The economics who were predicting 100k less job growth and an increase in unemployment. Don't hate the messenger buddy, I just post facts.[Edited on February 3, 2012 at 1:59 PM. Reason : :]
2/3/2012 1:58:41 PM
just imagine. only 6 or 8 trillion in bailouts and printed money and pretending nobody new is looking for jobs. it somehow still seems anecdotal doesn't it[Edited on February 3, 2012 at 2:22 PM. Reason : ,]

^reading your posts is like watching the jamaican bobsled team practicing for the olympicsas long as we keep shrinking the labor force we'll have more jobs than actual 'work capable humans' in the USA soon. hell we'll have a negative unemployment rate if we just change the demoninator.ah. math. the forgotten art of journalism and politics.[Edited on February 3, 2012 at 2:20 PM.

^^and reposting what i said just to make me look stupid later,i mean,ive posted that i would leave TSB forever if it wasnt a landslide at least a dozen times.i guess you just like to hear yourself talk, or something.[Edited on February 3, 2012 at 2:20 PM. Reason : shrug]

^ Oh, so you're saying that [ALL] people over the age of 55 tend to not be retired at a higher rate than people age 24-55? Or that people between 16-24 haven't been students at a much higher rate historically than people between 24-55? Obviously I'm missing something here and I'm just too dumb to get it. Can you please explain it to me in very explicit terms and with verifiable facts?^^^ So the fact that we added more private sector jobs last month than in any month since the recession began is completely insignificant? Are you really going to completely ignore that fact?
2/3/2012 2:34:27 PM
if you cant google "americans retiring later" or something to that effect im afraid theres not much i can do for you sir....and the fact that you automatically dont consider students to be working is indicative of a naive worldview.

It would take every gun on planet Earth to blow a hole all the way through the ironclad ridiculousness of the Republicans. The fact that they're well-funded puts them on par with a very expensive traveling circus.

The contraception requirement is a non-issue to actual voters. This is just the Catholic church trying to pretend it's still relevant to election year politics. http://content.usatoday.com/communities/Religion/post/2012/02/contraception-catholic-bishops-obama-hhs/1

And if the Catholics lose this battle, I suspect their next step might be to close down their charity hospitals. A big win for the poor when the government spends its time harassing the only people actually delivering care.

Churches are still exempt.It's funny they are getting so furious about having to offer GASP birth control.LOLIt's like muslims being pissed that they can't cover their faces for drivers license photos.

What makes you think the workers don't want it?And it's wrong to promote the idea that birth control is evil.

I'm sick of GOP horseshit. Unfortunately for them, they are as terrible at looking good as they are at being good. They should have used these 4 years to distance themselves from Bush/Cheney and try to clear their names if they wanted to have a chance this time around. They look crazier than ever before now. I swear to God, I hope every asshole Republican in every fucking minute little office job this election gets shit-canned with a vengeance and the nail in the coffin is set on this disgrace of a political party. I'm not holding out, but I can't help but feel like we are REALLY close to waking the sleeping giant in this country and for fucks sake I hope this is the year.
