Thanks. You're one of the only sane people in this discussion, and I’m not wasting my time on the mentally ill.
I hope the parasites are all denied food stamps if Republicans are elected.

I'd go into shock if you Right-wingers ever came up with intelligent excuses for your treason.
You can't use stupidity forever. You've gotten away with it for over 30 years, but people who know each other personally, will eventually figure out that it's just an excuse for cowardice.

Your brain has failed you again.
Liberals stood up to the military and WON by ending another criminal war, which was deliberately created by YOUR TRAITORS, those warmongering Rothschilds. They were the real winners -- they made massive profits and we ALL got the debt.
It's truly pathetic how you Right-wingers STILL HAVEN'T LEARNED.
It's over half a century later, and you're still supporting those war profiteers, still criticizing the liberals who are trying to expose their treason. That makes you a traitor too. The rest of your post shows that you’re trying to convince everybody that you’re too stupid to know what you’re doing, but nobody can only be that dumb for so many decades.

Before you pat yourself on your uninformed back, the Iraq withdrawal time table was set by the Bush administration. The liar-in-chief takes credit for it.

Jimmy Carter was blamed for giving the Panama Canal to Panama even though the treaty signed by Theodor Roosevelt 100 years earlier outline the date the canal zone was to be returned to Panama. Jimmy Carter just happened to be the sitting President at the time so he got the blame.
Obama gets the credit for the withdraw from Iraq because he was the sitting president at the time.
Besides, we all know that had McCain been the POTUS, we would still be occupying Iraq with combat troops today.

I don't know about that, REWBA. I'm pretty sure McCain was in favor of the surge that allowed for the time table.

You have short term memory loss. Probably from smoking all that pot. The republican's stance on Iraq and Afghanistan was to never set a date. For the entire time after the fall of Saddam and the discovery of all those weapons of mass deception, and once the Iraqis had voted, we the people asked for a timetable for withdraw and all we heard from the right was "you can't set a date!" They said that all the way up to and even after the last presidential election and McCain was on that same bandwagon. Got clean yourself out. All that dope has got you forgetting more and more.

They did not want the date "publicized". The date had been set under Bush. How's YOU'RE crop doing?

I wish they would cut food stamps, these massive Agricultural subsidies are insane. We can't afford the welfare we pay our farmers.

If by "Your Crop" you mean peaches, they are doing just fine. I've been picking them all week. Plumbs too.
Anyway, Bush refused to even set a timetable for withdraw. And McCain? Well, he said bringing troops home from Iraq wasn't "too important." http://www.youtube.com/watch...
He also said he wouldn't set a timetable: http://www.youtube.com/watch...
Romney agreed with McCain about setting a certain date for withdraw: http://www.youtube.com/watch...
You really aught to see a medical doctor about that memory loss problem of yours.

The bill passed the Senate but may not survive the House. House Republicans want to amend the Senate bill to include additional cuts to the food stamp program; Democrats won't have anything to do with deeper cuts to the program than the $13 billion cut in food stamps per year over the next 10 years approved in the budget.

I agree! Go Democrats!
Cut out unearned corporate welfare and tax breaks for the very wealthy and we'll look at deeper social spending cuts.
It's about shared sacrifice, Brian.

We won't cut spending until you raise taxes. The other side says we won't raise taxes until you cut spending. Sounds like gridlock.:-)

I'm not asking that taxes be raised, I'm calling for an end to Bush's era "unearned" corporate welfare and tax breaks for the very rich. It's their turn at the guillotine.

Aren't we all? I don't know what the anti rich attitude is all about or what that has to do with corporate tax. We've been calling for a low rate, no loop hole, flat tax system for incomes taxes and corporate taxes for quite a while now.
