who is being defensive? I just didn't see what the question had to do with anything.
Red Sox still suck.

Your envy of the Red Sox is amusing. It shows that you lean a certain way and will defend those principles where with me I am an Independent.

Trump Praises Crowd Size, Fails to Acknowledge Harvey Victims in Texas Visit

Federal response has been pretty good so far. If you are expecting Trump to coddle people it's not going to happen. We elected a businessman, not a empathizer in chief. Actions matter, results matter. not words.

I find it interesting. The country has become visibly divided with the ludicrous progressives on one side and right wing conservatives on the other and they just blast one another with "fake news" facts. Meanwhile moderates just sit there and shake their heads asking both sides to please STFU.

While the Alt-Right is clearly way worse than the Prog. Leftists the Prog. Leftists are still just super annoying, uneducated buffoons for the most part.

you know, comrade, you claim to be a moderate ( and I don't really care what you claim to be or are) but you are always calling the left names like ludicrous, while the right is just right wing conservatives. Seems to me you are a little more right leaning than you say. To me both sides are ludicrous and buffoons.

Yeah, Boris went to the miket school of pretending to be in the middle.

Oh, let's at least be honest. I lean conservative. I just don't give a damn about some of the right wing staples like abortion, legalization of pot, opposition to SSM, etc, etc.

But the left on this board is largely ridiculous. When I ask what Trump's done to ruin the world, I get Paris Accord, a FCC appointee and some rambling about the environment. Which is, quite frankly, nothing. Yet day in, day out, I keep reading that we're in deep **** as long as Trump is in office. As if removing him solves all of America's problems.

Says the guy who argued Obama was the worst president in history.

Good dude, terrible President. Everything he did is being undone. Or they're working on undoing it.

doesn't mean what he did was terrible, just means that the opposition party does not like what he did.

Subjective. Wylie, are you are registered Dem?

Yes, I am a registered Democrat. What does that have to do with anything? I'm not saying Obama was a great president, just that because when the opposition gets in power they try to undo everything he did that doesn't make him terrible. To some he was terrible, to some he was great. Like you said, its all subjective. What is not subjective is that the Red Sox suck.

I was just asking don't be so defensive

wylie's a dumbass. Kept repeating "Some of Trump's supporters are racist" as if it meant something. Every candidate has racist supporters.

"I'm no Trump fan, but..........."

Not sure why bronx has such a huge problem understanding those few words, because the truth (another word he doesn't understand) is, they are being uttered all across the Country. It was Trump or Clinton. Even after 7+ months of whining and attacking, Libs still haven't convinced people Clinton would be better. Why are they still trying? Why are they not working together with Repubs for a better Country? Why are they not at least turning their attention to future elections? They just continue to hurt their own cause. Watching how stupid they are is truly entertaining.

Also, the debt went up because we were in a ******* demand driven recession the day he took office. It wasn't a policy issue, it was a recession issue. There was no way to shrink the debt without putting the economy further into a downward spiral.

Yes but it increased notably under him. He needed to raise the debt ceiling, right? January 09 the national debt was at a bit less than $11Trl. we are now at nearly $20trn and look at it as a % of GDP. Not good. Some of it was due to the deficit his inherited but he didn't do anything to reduce it. It is not 100% his fault a lot of is on Bush but again under him we did nothing to help ourselves with better trade deals, fewer corporate inversions, a more favorable tax code for corporations, etc.

You should know this. When lack of demand is driving a recession, cutting federal spending is a HORRIBLE idea.

It wasn't lack of demand. Try again. It was banks tightening their lending policies and not providing credit. Try again, Alexander.

From Forbes

Except that it doesn’t seem to be true. Health insurance premiums have been rising for decades, almost (though not quite) as stubbornly reliable as an eastern sunrise. And it turns out that these increases actually slowed after the Affordable Care Act became law in 2010. That’s according to data collected by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, which tracks a range of topics around spending on health care in its Medical Expenditure Panel Survey. The survey tracks the health insurance offered by private firms big and small, and in all cases, the average rate of premium growth from the time the law passed in 2010 through 2015 was actually lower than from 2004 to 2010. And premium growth was lowest for firms with fewer than 50 employees.

Show how I am pandering to Trump? We are discussing Obama. I also blasted Bush, which you fail to mention. Too early to do anything on Trump as he has been in office for a relatively short time. GDP is improving, which is good but what happened in VA was awful. Too soon to tell.


Racist Idiot, do you deny this? Because employees who were considered part timers before had to be called full timers and that caused many businesses to lay off workers or even close shop. I was at a forum with 20 CEOs in the Boston area and ALL said this impacted them. You are a loser with no career path, B_L.

Beginning in 2014, large employers must track each employee's monthly status as full-time (defined under the ACA as an average of 30 hours per week, or at least 130 hours in a month) or part-time, report each employee's full- time status to the IRS, and keep as part of their tax records the status of each employee.

US revised second-quarter GDP up 3.0% vs 2.7% rise expected

• The U.S. economy grew faster than initially thought in the second quarter, notching its quickest pace in more than two years.
• There are signs that the momentum was sustained at the start of the third quarter.
• Gross domestic product increased at a 3.0 percent annual rate in the April-June period, the Commerce Department said

^^^This is YUUUUGE news. Trump is already outdoing Obama. Remember when libs be like "if trump gets elected the economy is going to crash".... #MAGA

19 times Trump called jobs and economic numbers ‘fake’ before they made him look good

Well duh. Do you think he's an idiot? He was running to become president then, now he is president. Hell, he'll probably call the media honest once his 2 terms are up.
