    A Tale of Two Economies: Mitt Romney vs. Republican Governors

    The great recession has left the state of Ohio battered and bruised–and Mitt Romney would have you believe it’s Barack Obama’s fault. Writing in the Cleveland Plain-Dealer on May 4, Romney advised Ohioans that the President has delivered them “paltry results,” and that their state is in need of “a fundamental change in direction.”

    That’s a Communist dog if I’ve ever seen one. I bet he barks in Russian. I don’t care if he is Portugese.

  • fourlegsgood

    well, Portugese does sound a little like Russian…

    but no! we can never have too many puppy pics. NEVER

    Look at how limp his right, front paw is.

    Gay. The dog is gay. And if gay marriage is allowed, what is to stop a man from marrying his (male) dog?
    -
    That dog — and Obama — are putting my Bible-approved marriage at risk!

  • palininatowel

    Oops. Left, front paw.

  • bentonf

    Get me to the kennel, driver — there are kittens and puppies awaiting socialist indoctrination!

  • dunedweller

    Maybe he isn’t really Portugese? Let’s *demand* the public release of his papers!

    Sweet Baby Jesus on the half-shell… what’s a dog gotta do round here to get some privacy? I just step to take a Beck and maybe drop a Hannity.. and suddenly all these losers want to film the event!

    And, we talk about Obama’s dog. Life sometimes is a comedy for sure.

    Humor’ll get you through tough times much better than bitterness and resentment, rusty.

    And given the horrific economy and vicious recession Bush left him, I thank God that Obama’s done as great a job as he has at stemming much deeper job losses. When O took over, you’ll recall, they were running around 750,000 per month.

    That said, we should indeed keep in mind and seek to assist those who find themselves deep in, or who stand at the brink of, economic peril. Or worse.

    Enjoy your holiday.

  • rustyreturns

    I am not bitter or resentful, bentonf. I am just saying that in times like these for most people, what Obama’s dog is or isn’t doing seems so trivial, but I agree and love a good laugh as much as anyone else.
    .
    I am very lucky. I have a great job, I make very good money despite the recession. I am actually as well off now, than before the recession started to be honest.
    .
    But, I also know there are millions of people out there who are suffering. Who do not know where the next meal will come from, let alone that they do not have health insurance or anything else like that.
    .
    I just question where the millions of dollars are being spent right now. I honestly believe instead of losing 250k jobs this past month, I think it should have increased by that amount. But, we shall see. Hopefully our tax dollars and those dollars of our children and grand-children are not being squandered away on some frivolous “project”.
    .
    Thank you and I also hope you have a great weekend as well. Enjoy.

    Happy weekend, Rusty and everyone else. We need one.

    Personally, yes.

    Now if only the media would understand a basic fundamental fact. Just as the right rejects everything the msm offers on the grounds that you can’t trust the liberal media and nothing you say or do changes that perception, they are rejecting all rhyme and reason. Yet, now the media is asking Obama why he isn’t solving this problem too? Perhaps if you people would pay as much attention to these folks that are fomenting insurrection as you do focusing on Michael Vick, we might have a chance at saving the country. What is it going to take before you take it seriously. Why do we try to understand their side, point to the area that might be just short of insane? These people are destroying the Republic, wasn’t the financial collapse enough for you>

  • deconstructiva

    …so he cavorts with terriers?

  • deconstructiva

    …yeah right, 747, screw that flying minivan, pffffft. Give me a real plane, one of those F-22 Raptors out there….no, I don’t care how few are in service, give me THAT one. I’m First Dog, start paying me some respect, already.

    ” .. Life sometimes is a comedy for sure.”

    Another day, another Rusty.
    .
    What does he know about life’s comedy for sure? Try this: Unemployment rate in Kenya? Over 65% nationally and rising to over 90% in regions of the country.

    [Why worry, be happy: Over half of Kenya's population is, according to the UN, starving while the salary and benefits of their "democratically elected members of parliament" imbeciles and their idiotic "president" is comparable to that of USA's elected congressmen and president. Of course, they are in our camp - else you would know about it.
    In the their urban streets, you would curiously watch the nutty, snobbish elected official and the doomed natives scurrying around industriously - as if they are getting anywhere - as if there is a brighter future for them .. !

    [Well, better believe it: They are better off than millions of Americans: All of their citizens have access to whatever (primitive) health care is available in their public (so called) hospitals - if they can get to it..] ]

    Maybe Rusty’s twaddle is for comic relief in the Swamp.

    ” … can we ever see enough puppy pictures? ..”

    Puppy pictures or else what?

    It sure beats those pictures of bloodied, dismembered heads and arms of bombed out Iraqi kids – with love from America …

  • deconstructiva

    “Well, Bo, what will be tonight’s choice? Mexican, Chinese, French, or Italian?”
    “Hmm… I’ll have Chinese. A Shih Tzu, please. And make sure she’s really wild and willing to put out.”
