I come from a long line of fighters. My maternal grandfather was the toughest guy I ever knew. World War Two veteran killed twenty men and spent the rest of the war in an Allied prison camp. My father battled blood pressure and obesity all his life. Different kind of fight.
Political LIBERALs are sad people

#108Is that so?
Maybe this will jog your memory:
I've owned 3 homes and am currently paying a mortgage now. Within a square mile of my house (good neighborhood all around), you could buy homes ranging in price from $35,000 to over a million dollars. There are decent affordable houses around for even low income people.
Not surprised. You seem like a complete dope.
YOU are cluless. First of all, 7 billion is a drop in the bucket when looking at the overall mortgage crisis. Second, I can guarantee you, the average price of homes purchased under the program was WAY less than 250 grand. Third, you actually think every single home purchase under the program ended in default? How ridiculous is that? Fourth you assume that buyers under the program didn't have to present documentation that they were credit worthy. That's simply not the case
You dont have to tell banks twice. I mean what lender wouldnt want poor minorities that cant even come up with their own downpayments. Banks fight over them and offer their prime rates to them because they are so desirable as borrowers.Comment -

There is nothing you just said that is remotely close to accurate but sadly you believe it to be true. Most crazy people don't realize they are nuts. Your "Thank god for Obama!" comment only proves my point.

#115The liberals of 1865 were far more conservative than even the republicans of today.
EVERYONE did their fair share of the work and there was no such thing as a social handout.
The liberals of today are ABSOLUTELY USELESS. They are GUTLESS, SPINELESS JELLYFISH.

As far as "fair", that's a loaded word which is meaningless in an objective discussion. To discuss "fair", people must first agree about what "fair" means. Otherwise, we are simply begging the question regarding the entire context.

do you think this country has thrived economically because of social welfare or in spite of it?
on a different note, addressing the OP: what is liberal? what is conservative? why is one exclusive to the other? why do these terms mean what you want them to mean, instead of what they actually mean?Comment -

#127This is good stuff and I could have told you this... Republicans are generous and believe in helping the homeless HELP THEMSELVES. Liberals want handouts..
I you give a person a fish you feed them for a day and if you teach them HOW to fish you feed them for a lifetime.
Republicans believe they know what is best for THEIR community and family, liberals think the government knows whats best for their community and family.
More than anything, christians are taught to take care of their fellow man, and support each other. When the government hemerages handouts, this does not encourage someone to make success for themself
Interesting
-----------------------------------------
We assume the rich give more than the middle class, the middle class more than the poor. I've heard liberals care more about the less fortunate, so we assume they give more than conservatives do. Are these assumptions truth, or myth?...
It turns out that this idea that liberals give more…is a myth. Of the top 25 states where people give an above average percent of their income, 24 were red states in the last presidential election.

#131What is wrong with you? You have been brainwashed by the liberal media and nothing you mentioned is true. Your argument is porous and full of holes.
Further more wtf is a neozombie? At least come up with better names for people
Has anyone met a bigger moron than andy the wacko?
This brainwashed idiot blames the Democrats for every problem yet cant name a single thing they did wrong. This neozombie claimed the Democrats repealed the Car Tax in California yet has been unable to prove it. Maybe because FACTS are Ahnuld repealed it with a simple signature on the Executive Order. The racist then blames the illegals yet IRS says 6 million illegals file income tax returns and Congressional Budget Office says 75% of them pay federal, state and local taxes! They contribute $7 Billion to Social Security each year! And of course in typical andy the wacko response, the idiot ignores these facts to rant about the illegals some more.
andy the wacko further proves his ignorance by blaming the Democrats for the mortgage meltdown. When asked why Dumbya passed The Downpayment Initiative which gave hundreds of millions to the poor to help them buy homes, he had no answer and completely ignored it.
It's no wonder why this idiot spends 24/7 talking politics on a sports forum..... probably got laughed out of every political forum on the net. He's obviously not here to talk sports as he only bets 3 team parlays and live in-game like a clueless fuk that he is.
We all saw what neonitwits are capable of between 2001-2008......
1) Ignoring al Qaeda threats..... Dumbya was repeatedly warned about hijacking yet he went golfing and month long vacations. 911 Commission found that Dumbya had the proverbial "Blue Print" to al Qaeda's plans and did nothing to stop it.
2) Ignored repeated warnings from Fannie Mae & HUD regulators about the impending mortgage crisis. Dumbya even fired the chief regulator who published his warnings. He also allowed SEC to deregulate banks allowing them to take on massive subprime debt which ultimately led to their demise.
3) Invaded Iraq on falsified evidence. Dumbya had plans back in 1999 to invade according to his own biographer. This wasnt about 9-11 or freedom, it was about a draft dodger playing mas macho in the comfort & safety of the White House against an unarmed opponent. This wet dream of his cost Americans $1 Trillion and 4300 US soldiers their lives.
4) Manipulated gas prices to as high as $5/gal. I love how neo-zombies claim Dumbya lowered taxes, but then what do you call paying 3X at the pump????????? His buddies at the oil companies made record profits and thus paid higher taxes, which directly went to pay for the war.
There are many many more ways you neonitwits nearly destroyed not just America but the entire world. Thank god for Obama!Comment -

#132Wow, dagger knows how to copy and paste
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Governm...ortgage_crisis
The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has conceded that self-regulation of investment banks contributed to the crisis. The SEC relaxed rules in 2004 that enabled investment banks to substantially increase the level of debt they were taking on, fueling the growth in mortgage-backed securities supporting subprime mortgages.[7][8]
The top five US investment banks each significantly increased their financial leverage during the 2004–2007 time period (see diagram), which increased their vulnerability to the MBS losses. These five institutions reported over $4.1 trillion in debt for fiscal year 2007, a figure roughly 30% the size of the U.S. economy. Three of the five either went bankrupt (Lehman Brothers) or were sold at fire-sale prices to other banks (Bear Stearns and Merrill Lynch) during 2008, creating instability in the global financial system. The remaining two converted to commercial bank models in order to qualify for Troubled Asset Relief Program funds (Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley).[9]
The SEC is also responsible for establishing financial disclosure rules. Critics have argued that disclosure throughout the crisis was ineffective, particularly regarding the health of financial institutions and the valuation of mortgage-backed securities.[10][11]
President Bush advocated the "Ownership society." According to the New York Times, "he pushed hard to expand home ownership, especially among minorities, an initiative that dovetailed with his ambition to expand the Republican tent — and with the business interests of some of his biggest donors. But his housing policies and hands-off approach to regulation encouraged lax lending standards." He insisted that Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac (the GSE) meet low-income housing goals and advocated government loans to help low-income homeowners make down-payments. The Bush administration also replaced Fannie and Freddie's chief regulator in 2003 immediately after the regulator published a report warning of the risks posed by the GSE.[68]Comment -

3. mocking, i.e. appeal to ridicule (aliens, sky)
