Exit Poll Musings

[jack sommerset]

Enlighten us, jack. Show that you know how to do more than make snide remarks and post gifs.

The stimulus didn't work.

I have over 7000 post. Plenty of post without snide remarks and gifs. Run along, christian.

Elaborate.

If you think it's undeniable that the stimulus accomplished what it was supposed to, then apparantely your expectations of what the stimulus was supposed to accomplish are vastly different from most.

It was supposed to create jobs and stimulate the economy. It did just that. Any actual benchmarks were stupid political blunders given they didn't know the exact severity of the downturn to begin with. The point remains that it indeed helped the economy.

As I said if you want to debate the further impact down the line then thats a fair line of questioning (although really the lost tax revenue from a downturning economy is a necessary subject if the conversation goes in that direction) but whether or not the stimulus worked has been for all intents settled and thats not me speaking but the economists.

Well, the CBO does say it created jobs, increased GDP, etc, but even the CBO admits it can't really say that anything is improved over where we would have been without it, and says the effects will be wearing off starting over the next few months.

What happens as the immediate effects where off over the next few months to a year will really determine how effective the stimulus was. If it was effective, we'll see growth continue and even increase. If it wasn't, we'll see stagnation or downturn.

Re: So nobody is mentioning the missile launch off the California coast?

The commander in chief will tell us what happened when he is back from vacation.

LOL

You are a racist. I had my suspisions. I don't read much of your stuff so if you were this blunt in the past, well sorry for bringing it up now.

I'm generally curious, why do you hate white people so much? Did you vote for Barry because he is black

Maybe a small percentage.


Clearly, I think it's time for me to retire.

I'm one of those guys that will say, has said, without any hesitation that Obama has ed the democratic party for a good 10 years. Most likely longer. Many americans will seriously have a HUGE problem ever trusting a dem after what this White House has pulled. The same guys in here can argue all they want about what party did what over all of time and place but there is no doubt in my mind that the dems are pretty much out of luck for a long, long, long time and damn well deserve it. It's not like barry did it all by himself. He g-o-t-s the votes from fellow dems to pull his crazy ass .

Honestly, no bull , those people talking global warming as if our planet is going to die in the near future (Like within a billion years or less) if we donot change our "ways" are some dumb mother ers.

I was just thinking the samething myself. Probably got in some arguement with his partner and needed to let off some steam. It's a ass, comes out of it and it's covered in hair. Dude was just doing what he was born to do.

Health care is now being argued that it's a tax.

He wants cap and tax. That would have been on everyone.

He did raise taxes on smokes. If you smoke and make under 250, you gots lied to!

He wants big government and big government means big taxes.

You fools should be thanking the smart folks that voted to get rid of dems this election or Barry would have nailed all of us to the cross.

I can't believe this prick is going to spend 2 ing billion dollars for a goddamn trip. You s keep defending him.

Note that I didn't pick and choose, these are just the most recent ones in your posting history. I can keep going. Want to play the, "Let's see if Jack ever makes an insightful comment that doesn't bash an ethnic/political/sexual preference group that differs from himself" game? There are some really prize responses from yourself if we go further back.

A simple google search of the phrase "economists think stimulus didn't work" certainly turns up enough examples of economists who disagree with your proclaimation for me to think that the issue has not been settled for all intents. But perhaps that's just me.

LOL@ you think all of those are snide remarks and gifs.

Pssss, you're a ing tool.

Lets take a peek inside the mind of a true intellectual. Like you, I just took a few of your last post from your history

People say Madden is "ZOMG TEH BEST EVER" every year as well. It's . It's just well-marketed .

Arguing that the majority knows what cons utes good entertainment is a shaky position to say the least.

An ad-hominem made out of strawmen. That's impressive.

Does it have PC dedicated servers?

This is seriously sig worthy. Are you purposely that naive?

y u mad tho?

y u mad tho?

I'm making a point.

And yes, it's necessary when several people guaranteed me that I would buy it and play it.

It's always a good idea to read an article before posting it.

Self-ownage = best ownage.

Talk about someone making snide remarks. You are a hypocrite and will always be one. Go yourself you smiley face got.

Graph comprehension fail. You're own beloved Obama admin predicted unemployment would peak at 9% if they DIDN'T pass the stimulus. Well, it is still hovering at 10% WITH the stimulus.

And of course, you have to pick and choose my posts, because I also have several thousand well thought-out responses in this forum. Where as, with you, it's all too easy to just take the 10 or so most recent quotes from you, because 95% of it is the same tired shtick.

Is that really the best you can do? You're like a school bully who hasn't realized that his ability to intimidate with bluster passed a long time ago.

So it could have been even worse without it?

Good thing it passed.

Thanks for the info.

LoL @ you think I am trying to intimidate and bully you. Get a life loser. That's advice.

Reading comprehension fail on so many levels. I understood the graph and your point just fine. The problem is I had already addressed it. You should go read that post again.

So, somewhere in this thread, you mentioned that passing the stimulus had the same affect (albeit somewhat worse) that the admin predicted would be the affect had they NOT passed it? I read all your posts and didn't see that mentioned.

[MannyIsGod]

Darrin, when I say I addressed your point it doesn't mean that I made your point. Like I said, reading comprehension fail.

I'd like to introduce you to the language of English.

Darrin's like a little kid snagged by his own tackle, only, he's still pulling the rod like he caught a big one.




(Apparently he thinks he's got you on the end of the line, Manny. )

Manny seems to think he addressed my point. If only he would provide a link to his post where he suggests this happened.

There, Darrin. Its also not like we haven't danced to this song 3948309483083 times before.
