@reasoning logic,
This isn't about willard but about another of America's problems and that is how the conservatives are dumbing down the country.

The writing style is more than a tad snide but the arguments are fairly sound.

@plainoldme,
Thank you for sharing. I learned things that I was unaware of like the word Dixiecrat which lead me to learn more history of the parties. Smile

@reasoning logic,
Gingrich said Romney was a liar, and now he's saying,
Quote:
Gingrich on Romney’s ‘gifts’ comments: ‘It’s nuts’ Yahoo! News - Latest News & Headlines - 15 minutes ago
Like several other prominent Republicans, Newt Gingrich slammed Mitt Romney's assertion in a conference call with donors last week that he lost the 2012 presidential election because of "gifts" President Barack Obama gave to blacks,...


I wonder where Romney will end up in the history books? I'm sure it'll be taboo in Utah. Mr. Green

@cicerone imposter,
Seems to me they're trying en masse as fast as they can to make like Romney never existed.

What's both enraging and sad is that they voted in large numbers for this man who they didn't like, didn't know and didn't respect.

@snood,
No matter how hard they try to erase Romney from the voter's consciousness, that'll never happen. The party spent millions promoting this pathological liar, and ended up what was a close call according to the polls. Remember all the "ties?"

They didn't figure on voters fighting voter suppression and the belittling of half the US population as "gift" takers - which the GOP never caught on. Their promotion of tax hikes for the rich was their only goal - and they lost big time.

Now, they come out and try to make Susan Rice and the Obama administration into a political football. Now, we learn that what Susan Rice shared was what the intelligence agencies permitted her to say.

They seem to do everything wrong and half-asswards. Will they ever learn?

Their talk of modifying their rhetoric to win Hispanic and women votes will only be seen as lies and innuendos.

They overcooked their own aggression in all the wrong ways.

How much are you willing to bet that liberals will not give this video the time of day?

@reasoning logic,
Nonsense. The owners of the company decided to liquidate it because they could no longer make a profit due to idiotic work rules imposed by their unions and the refusal of one of them to accept contract modifications. That is entirely their right, in that the company is their property. Now, as a direct consequence, everyone employed by the company, including the CEO and all the executives, will lose their jobs. The various union contracts and U.S. labor law will govern the severance benefits the union workers will get, and they are substantial. The bonus payout numbers proposed do not appear particularly unusual, though, in this case the bankrupcy judge will likely have to rule on their appropriateness in view of other liquidation costs.

This fiasco is yet another illustration of the observable biological phenomenon that well established and enduring parasites carefully avoid actually killing their hosts. Labor unions are generally stupid parasites.

Look I am not stating that you are wrong or right but I do find it odd that you took my bait. Wink

I find many things wrong with republicans and democrats alike but regardless I listen to all of their view points or at least as many as I can.

If you were to be intellectually honest would you be able to say the same? do you also listen to all the news channels that you disagree with?

@reasoning logic,
Well I watched and listened to the stupid commentary you posted here. That must count for something. Moreover my response was to the content in it that you put here.

I didn't see any "bait" in your post, but do note that your response was a feeble attenpt to change the subject.

Are you suggesting that you also pay attention to the news that you disagree with?

Management is blaming the unions for the company's liquidation. Certainly labor costs are part of it. But only a part. Have you read about some of the others - as reported by management in court papers?

No I haven't. However I would be interested in any quantatative comparisons. Please also include data on the cost of some of the stupid (but self-serving) work rules the union demanded - like requiring that bread and pastry products be delivered in separate (half empty) trucks to the same customers.

OK, I find this inspirational. What are the many or few news channels that you disagree with and please share some of the content that you disagree with so that the rest of us can learn. Smile
