Dove, sounds like you are making a case FOR Fox news.  They do the exact same thing.  They mention things that your crowd plus 99% of the media wont.  If it hadnt been for Fox, we wouldnt know anythin

Westend- its good that you are in better shape 6 years ago- can you honestly tell me that the reason you were in worse shape then is attributable to  Bush policies  and you are in better shape now due to the policies of Obama?

I think I have said before. It doesn't matter who is in office. if you agree, quit trying to blame the current ills on Obama. if the presidency matters, then give him credit. You cant have it both ways.

Its because of the cyclicality of the economy.  You get periods of growth followed by periods of contraction , and the cycle repeats itself.  It has done so for years.  This "recovery" is the weakest in 70 years and GDP is running at about half of what the average post recession recovery runs.  So I suggest to you that the things you perceive as good could be a lot better.  Or, better yet, the good things that you perceive are happening in spite of the Presidents policies rather than as a result of them.  But if you insist that someone in political office should get credit, I am sure you will gladly honor Governor Perry because Texas has one of the strongest economies in the nation and it is based on less regulation and lower taxes, both of which are the opposite of the Federal Policies.  If you think higher taxes and more regulations ( as Mr. Obama prefers) works, just compare the economies of Texas and California.   In March of 2014, Beaumont unemployment rate is 5.3%   In March of 2008, Beaumont unemployment rate was 5.2%

texas has a bunch of minimum wage jobs that dont offer any benefits. The less regulation part is dangerous. Rick perry was bragging, he stated that Texas has minimum regulations; therefore, companies should move their businesses to Texas. Three days later, west texas was blown off of the map. The EPA was started because a river was so polluted it caught on fire (true story) 13 times. Google river catches on fire 13 times.

Rick Perry proved that he is an idiot when he ran for president. He graduated from texas a $ m with a degree in animal science. He had a 2.1 GPA which is quite impressive if he was running for the head of animal control. President Obama graduated from Harvard law with honors. You cant logically compare the two. Hell I graduated from texas A&m with a 3.0 in public health and later received my Bachelor's degree in nursing, graduating with honors. My credentials are better than Perry's. I am in the process of entering school to receive a msn so that I can become a nurse practitioner.

Congrats on your degree's. I have a buddy that is a NP and that is really the future. Hopefully Texas will pass the law that you do not need a Doctor to sign off to run your own business.

 

Now, to my point....

 

Degree's give you knowledge, show commitment but do not make you more intelligent or automatically better at your job. I have no degree and have been managing large businesses since I was 24, and I am currently 48. I have trained college grads only to see them fail because a Business Degree only gives you the tools.....you have to know what to do with them to make them work.

 

While I don't agree with everything Perry has done or stands for, He has ran Texas pretty good.

 

Oh Yea......What do all these people have in common? Andrew Jackson, Abraham Lincoln, Benjamin Franklin, Dave Thomas(founder of Wendy's), Davis Green(Founder of Hobby Lobby), Henry Ford, Michael Dell, Simon Cowell......

 

No College Degree........and there are MANY more.....

BIll Gates and Steve Jobs.  No college degrees.  Much more success than most.  Dont get too hung up on college degrees.  Another problem with the current administration is that most of those running come from Academia rather than the real world.  When you get a chance, google LONG TERM CAPITAL MANAGEMENT.  It was operated largely by several Nobel Laureates and was full of PHDs.  It went bankrupt and was very close to causing a panic such as we had in 2008 for which you love to credit to George Bush.(even though nothing could be further from the truth).It took a consortium of many major Wall Street investment bankds to fund the multibillion-dollar bailout.

      He's steadily improving rapidly. Not that your opinion matters much based on some of the wild projections you've made on this site

      BRAGG'S STAR WITNESS

      By baddog · Posted

      Cohen……a lying, backstabbing pos who does nothing but lie every time he opens his mouth. Let him utter words the prosecution wants to hear, and we can convict. Cohen told his ex advisor that he wanted to kill himself. What a worldly loss that would be. Let anyone on this board be put through the wringer with false charges and lies like Trump has had to endure, and you would be screaming at the top of your lungs how illegal all of this is.

      It was and remains perfectly timed and choregraphed Kangaroo Court, whatever Cohen just said or lied about.  Face it, under Soros installed Biden and Merrick Garland, the USA is now officially a Bananna Republic with a Goverment that weaponizes itself against and destroys its political rivals. Putin and Xi are SO proud!  Dang I miss Democracy.

      I haven’t been watching closely, but even the liberal sources even tell the story as “the defense really took apart Cohen’s testimony on Thursday.” It sounds like sloppy work from the prosecution to point out a specific call as being “the one,” when it was easily concluded that this particular call could not have occurred the way that Cohen (and the prosecution) claim it to have happened.    The bad news is that I doubt that it matters much-I suspect that most jurors minds were closed before testimony started.   I don’t see Trump leaving with anything less than a conviction based on the venue (NYC).

      Governor Abbott pardons Daniel Perry for murder during protest…

      By bullets13 · Posted

      Tough case all the way around.  The guy had a lot of online activity come out where he made racist statements and statements about killing BLM protesters and looters.  So when he then goes out and does it, it looks really bad.  I've seen a lot of videos where people have driven through protestors, defended themselves against them, etc., and didn't bat an eye.  This feels different, but that doesn't necessarily make it murder, either.  His account of the events that happened vs. the witness accounts were both very different, but I'd also expect both sides' accounts to be self-serving and inaccurate to fit their narrative.  Not really sure what to think on this one.
