Turning The Ballot Box Against Republicans

@lostone,

Hey, your little pal brought up the side thread, preach to him.

@hawkeye10,

Where is your civility now, Sparacus? And why are you so far off topic?

@bobsal u1553115,

You sure are going to great lengths to protect Rex, why? You know the truth, why go to this extent?

You can follow this exchange between Rex/Cobbler and MM.

They are the same person. If you want to continue to deny it then that is your problem as everyone else knows it's true.

Are you going to prove your "60% of govt spending goes to the military"? I responded to you on that one but you ignored it.

pointing out someone lack of willingness/ability to post on topic is not an uncivil act. And I applied no derogatory labels either. Clearly you are operating in fantasyland.

we do have a far too many people cluttering up A2K with lies and/or gibberish. I have a hard time understanding how people get that stupid and/or bored.

@Baldimo,

60% of govt spending goes to military is just as valid as saying 47% pay no taxes. The mistake is the same in both instances.

@Baldimo,

Read it all. At no point does TheCobbler say "I am RexRed".

It remains to be seen how good of a guesser you are, but as a reporter your proof fall below your claim. Do you or do you not have a smoking gun link?

No, you don't. You're speculating, which you conflate with "knowing".

So when are taking all your gibberish down?

@parados,

How do you figure they are the same? There is supporting evidence that 47% of people pay no federal taxes at the end of the year, they pay for it through the year but when they do their taxes at the end of the year, they get more back then they pay in. There is no supporting evidence that military spending is 60% of the federal budget.

I admit it, lostone is my sock account. I use it to gin up outrage in Baldino.

For that reason, I ask that the moderators deactivate my lostone account. I am sorry for fooling baldino. It was mean. And it was so very simple.

How about that 60% comment? Are you going to back it up or admit it was a false statement.

Don't you get it? I'm lostone?

@Baldimo,

They are the same because the claim that 47% of the people pay no taxes only uses income taxes and ignores FICA and other revenues. The claim that 60% of the budget goes to the military only uses the discretionary budget as its basis and ignores the non discretionary. They both use only part of the total to calculate a percentage and pretend it is the entire total.

@Baldimo,

60% of the discretionary budget goes to the military. End of story.

Same as the claim that only 47% pay taxes. If you accept one then you should be more than happy to accept the other. (Both are false.)

Everything is discretionary. We can change the laws at will, and we can default on our debt. As Slate points out today our military spending is not the major problem, our healthcare spending is, a fact that The Professor either missed or decided to ignore.

Your changing the word meanings doesn't change the budget. It still has a discretionary and a non discretionary part to it.

It would be like claiming every federal tax is really an income tax since they are all paid out of income. It might be true but it doesn't turn FICA or the gas tax into income tax.
