How about thousands of words of Bidenisms?

2,000,000 Californians are out of work.
That's a 12.4% unemployment rate, and it doesn't account for underemployed people and those who gave up looking.
Obama. Over.
Speaking of 2,000,000, Palin's first book has now sold more than 2,000,000 copies.
GM just had one of the biggest IPOs in US history thanks to Obama! Hundreds of Thousands of jobs saved and the US auto industry is back!
The Obama Haters are shitting in their pants!
Has anyone seen the Sarah Palin show on TLC?
Off topic, but who cares? Sour grapes from the Cooley camp. Is it over already? I'm waiting for the fat lady to sing ...
9:56-
Are you aware that the holders of $38 BILLION in bonds got completely wiped out?
Let me spell that out for you.
While Obama was taking an empty victory lap, the bondholders (WHICH INCLUDES THINGS LIKE PENSION FUNDS), lost this much:
$38,000,000,000.
Not $38 million
Not $380 million
It's $38 BILLION
You're rather foolish for thinking that this was good for anyone, including Obama. Good things may come from this in the long run, but not until it creates more than $38 BILLION + all of the pension and other job-related losses.
Then you have to calculate who would buy a GM car. I sure won't.
I forgot to add $45 billion in future tax credits (over the next 20 years).
Yeah, the Obama haters are sure shitting in their pants. About the financial hit it'll cost us until 2030 at the least.
Who could buy a car when Obama's Debt Commission is proposing a 6.5% national sales tax.
Everything from your toothpaste to your car will cost 6.5% more.
All Obama appointees to the Commission. Those Dems can't figure out how the economy works.
Watch the business channels, folks.
The only way GM can survive is if they sell a whole lot of $41,000 electric cars.
The demand isn't currently there, pardon the pun, so Harry Reid is trying to finagle subsidies. Subsidies come from YOUR and MY pockets.
Further to the point I was making about electric cars, would any of you invest in a company where its sales rely on whether or not the government can facilitate incentives?
That's why the Japanese car makers were so successful while the American car companies have tanking over the past 30+ years. People bought Japanese cars without a hint of an incentive being needed.
Until the American car companies can build cars with that type of demand, the GM deal is going to sink, sink, sink. Watch the market and you'll see. Besides, who is buying a car, let alone an electric car with no charging stations, in this economy?
Then pop an additional 6.5% fed tax on top of it, and it's going to be a very short lived thrill. Good that the company was saved, but only if they can produce cars that people want and can afford.
To the foolish person who thinks anyone is shaking in their shorts re: Barak Obama, I'll call your attention to two articles from the liberal NEW YORK TIMES
The first shows how badly Obama & Eric Holder misestimated terrorist trials in civilian criminal courts.

The next one shows Obama taking the blame for the tone in Washington. Remember the guy who said he's rise above it all? Where'd he go?

PERHAPS THE PERSON WHO THINKS HE/SHE KNOWS WHAT'S GOING ON IN POLITICS SHOULD DO SOME READING BEFORE THEY MAKE A FOOL OF THEMSELF. YOU KNOW ZERO.
7:43 a.m.
Better yet, watch A&E and the season of "Flip this House" episodes that feature declared CD14 council candidate and overprices fishmonger Rudy Martinez.
Citizen candidate "Rudy Rich" routinely, on camera, lies and tells his subordinates to lie to both the sellers and the future buyers of the houses he will make obscene profits on. All, in order to line his pockets.
(After a few episodes, many will see he's already dishonest enough to be a poliician. He just wasn't ready yet to take the HUGE pay cut to become one, until now.)
When our current councilmember "lies" (according to his critics), it's open for some interpretation, since most of them have no idea of what really happens at City Hall.
When "RR" tells his subcontractors, again -- ON CAMERA -- to hide unpermited work that violates City codes from the very same L.A. City building inspectors that he hopes someday soon to be one of the BOSSES of), there's absolutely no room for interpretation.
Don't believe me? Watch the episodes yourself. Make it a drinking game. Every time Rudy Rich lies or encourages employees to lie, in order to make more money, throw one back.
But make sure if your not home while playing the game, that you have a designated driver. Because just ONE episode will get you totally BLITZED, maybe to the point of passing out.
Does "character" matter to the "throw out all incumbents" crowd, or are they already too drunk with their own kool-aid to care?
We'll see!
Wow, drunk and sputtering financial whack at 7 a.m. Saturday. Must have been quite a night.
Uh, no 12:06.
I was watching the "Business Block" on Fox News.
If your perspective on BUSINESS and what makes the economy tick, you'd watch also.
You sound like the type who doesn't believe in making money, and would rather have it given to you. Not me. Pure capitalist here who has to dumb down things for fools who don't know about capitalism. I imagine you're a renter, too, whereas I have rental property, leased to people who pay the mortgage for me. Oh, me = early retired CPA.
Better to be a "citizen candidate" who believes in capitalism than a "citizen journalist" who doesn't believe in spellcheck. Or fact check, for that matter.
Ha ha ha
LOL
Good one!
1:20 p.m.
"Capitalism" = "okay to lie to people to make money"?
Not in any business I've ever been employed by.
It isn't necessary to be dishonest to make good money. Typically, those who feel they HAVE to lie to make a profit (and real estate and the house-flipping trade is a prime example), are just REALLY, really bad businessmen, who compensate for their lack of ability and business acumen by cheating others.
If you believe that would make a good "citizen" candidate, maybe YOU should run for office, too.
Rudy sounds like he'd be more suited for a job in Bell. He even makes Huizar sound good.
Now what??
There's no need to lie in business, and my experience shows that most people don't. But to prevent being roped into a situation with those who do, everyone should do their own diligence.
