Basically they only counted women who were having sex and didn't want to have a baby and who hadn't had a baby lately. So this is like a poll asking what percent of people drive and of those, who has bought gas at some point in their lives. Guess what? Yes you get 98% of people who are having sex and don't want to have a baby use some contraceptive method. Shocker. So you don't count people who aren't having sex because they don't want to have a baby. And about 32% use sterilization, 30% use pills, 15% condoms, etc. Mon, 27 Feb 2012 04:14:36 +0000 http://biggovernment.com/jdeangelis/2012/02/26/nancy-pelosi-vicar-of-contraception/#IDComment302482341 http://biggovernment.com/capitolconfidential/2012/02/03/epa-reverses-course-on-boiler-mact-federal-court-slaps-it-back/#IDComment283184097 So the Sierra Club, which secretly took $26 million in money from Chesapeake Natural Gas (to get Sierra Club to lobby against coal) is suing the coal-using power companies. Sweet! Looks like the Chesapeake Natural Gas $28 million accomplished its goal.

Now Obama can say "there is no middle class", just the poor and the rich. And, if you are poor, the government will bail you out. The half that don't pay income taxes.

Info like Fed QE1/2/3, opening the oil reserve, canceling the keystone pipeline. For almost everything Obama does, there is a way to profit from knowing it before hand. I'm convinced this insider trading has become one of the main ways Democrats raise funds for all these extra-political activities (like OWS, media matters, and all the socialist/marxist front organizations).

He is killing the goose that pays for the golden state's free ride. I like the bumper sticker I saw in CA. "I vote democrat. It's easier than working."

There are NO cuts in any of these degt deals, much less in Obama vapor-cuts. The GOP is selling 'reductions in the rate of increase in spending' as cuts. And the 'cuts' are all pushed out so that nothings happens now but the cuts are pushed out to years 2-10. This is like me saying I'm going to lose weight next year, not now.

Socialism requires doing less with less. These standards will require smaller cars, less cargo, slower cars, more time wasted in traffic, cars that are more complex to build and repair, less access to cars for poor people, but at least the Chevy Volt will start looking good by 2025.

I know. But, even if the truth hurts... Boehner and the GOP will co-own the deficits since Nov 2010. And don't think that Obama won't run on that fact in 2012. Thu, 28 Jul 2011 20:46:53 +0000 http://biggovernment.com/waysandmeans/2011/07/27/obama-more-than-twice-the-debt-in-half-the-time-as-bush/#IDComment178139611 http://biggovernment.com/waysandmeans/2011/07/27/obama-more-than-twice-the-debt-in-half-the-time-as-bush/#IDComment178108245 All budgets start in the house. Boehner has the power to stop the debt increase (by refusing to pass it) but not the power to pass anything without the other branches. Everyone agrees on the structure of the gov. But, unless Boehner agrees to increase the debt limit, Obama will not have the big deficit right? Right? Thu, 28 Jul 2011 18:21:08 +0000 http://biggovernment.com/waysandmeans/2011/07/27/obama-more-than-twice-the-debt-in-half-the-time-as-bush/#IDComment178108245 http://biggovernment.com/waysandmeans/2011/07/27/obama-more-than-twice-the-debt-in-half-the-time-as-bush/#IDComment178098461 You really aren't reading what I'm saying. Answer this question: after the 2010 elections where Boehner became speaker of the House, Boehner has given Obama 1 trillion in the Continuing Resolution, 1 trillion in the current bill and (if Boehner continues his history) another 1.6 trillion next year, Right or wrong? Thu, 28 Jul 2011 17:41:37 +0000 http://biggovernment.com/waysandmeans/2011/07/27/obama-more-than-twice-the-debt-in-half-the-time-as-bush/#IDComment178098461 http://biggovernment.com/waysandmeans/2011/07/27/obama-more-than-twice-the-debt-in-half-the-time-as-bush/#IDComment178067846 Read what I'm saying. So you are saying that Boehner didn't pass the Continuing resolution giving Obama $1.6 trillion to spend in this past April? And Boehner isn't about to give Obama another $1 trillion this year? And Boehner is probably going to give Obama another $1 trillion next April... You guys are not paying attention. In the continuing resolution debacle Boehner gave Obama a trillion. Boehner is set to give Obama another $2.6 trillion this year (1 trillion now, another 1.6 trillion in Apr/May). Do you think Obama is going to take the full blame for this $4 trillion deficit? As soon as Obama has the money, he is going to start blaming (rightfully) the GOP for the deficits in his term. Blaming not Bush, but Boehner. People (like me) who want fiscal restraint are getting played.

In the continuing resolution debacle Boehner gave Obama a trillion. Boehner is set to give Obama another $2.6 trillion this year (1 trillion now, another 1.6 trillion in Apr/May). Do you think Obama is going to take the full blame for his $6 trillion deficit? As soon as Obama has the money, he is going to start blaming (rightfully) the GOP for the deficits in his term. Blaming not Bush, but Boehner. People (like me) who want fiscal restraint are getting played by both parties.

Boehner's continuing resolution fiasco enabled Obama's 2010 $1.5 trillion deficit. Now Boehner's bill is going to enable Obama's 2011 $1.5 trillion deficit. So who's to blame? The guy who gives the drunk the drink? or the drunk?

Has Obama been truthful about ANYTHING? Is Obama counting each foodstamp debit card transaction as another check? Is Obama counting the income tax refunds and credits as checks? Are there 80 million different people getting checks or is it multiple checks per person?

So the last 2 years of deficits will be due to GOP+Obama.
