Larry Kudlow, host(R) on CNBC told Welch that he worked in the WH "and you don't touch those numbers

so how can you say that?". (referering to Jack Welch's tweet that the WH fixed the employment numbers.
I did not finish watching, i can't stand either of those jerks.

one of my faves.

A throwback to the era when Republicans could be intelligent and reasonable....and willing to compromise.

Actually - of the Last THREE Decades. If they hate it so damn bad, why do they want in so damn bad?

...why do people who are so anti-government work so hard to get jobs... in government?

Yes, Paul Ryan, I'm talking to you. If you hate government so much, how come you've spent your entire professional life collecting government paychecks and benefits?

Why do the republicans only make these accusations when the numbers come down to a record low in 3.5 yrs? Were the data and methodology questioned or wrong when they went higher? Logic eludes most of these tools who are repeating this cooked books garbage!

That's what this whole three-and-a-half year nightmare with the damn teabaggers and birthers and all the rest of the inmates in this asylum has been about. We saw it during the two Clinton terms. What they hated, simply put, is that one of THEIRS did not win the White House. It's what I call the World's Biggest Entitlement Program: the attitude of the republi-CONS that the White House is somehow just automatically THEIRS. By birthright or some divine fiat or some such thing. THEY alone are entitled to the White House, to the reins of power, to the top of the ziggurat in Washington DC. They ALONE.

And when the universe does not conform to this divine dictate, all is LOST! Hellfire and damnation stampedes across our land! Well, actually, the wrath of the adult-size three-year-old tantrum-throwing snot-noses in the teabag nation, neoCONS, republi-CONS, libertarians, birthers, Focus on the Pharisees, Ladies for Women, and whatever-the-hell else they're calling themselves these days. We've seen a belly-full of that crap, and that acting-out. It's adult-size tantrum-throwing. I'm surprised they're not all out there stamping their little feetsies and holding their breath until they turn blue (OOPS! Can't do that! And be thought of as a Democrat?????).

They've fooled themselves into believing that THEY ALONE, CONservatives, whites, majority-male, are somehow superior beings blessed with a Divine Right to Rule. An inferior dares not aspire to their lofty heights. And when Barack Obama did, and proved he was superior to them in EVERY way from intellectually to morally to ethically, well - that was just HORRID! The END of the WORLD!!! I WANT MY AMERICA BACK!!! Well, what they think is "THEIR America" is a cruel joke, a mirage, painted for them with disappearing ink by the CONs in the media and the think tanks and the upper levels of the 1% where public policy is determined and influenced and where the real money is and where the real money talks AWFULLY LOUDLY. These evil assholes are exploiting this anger and outrage for their own political ends.

Just one big fat oozing ICK. A big vile putrid pus-filled, selfish, UN-Christian, UN-American, UN-patriotic ICK, and the biggest spoiled sports I've ever seen outside of a Trump Tower play-date. They're also, if you really wanna know, guilty of treason - if anyone in power really wanted to push it. They're attempting NON-STOP obstruction of the Commander-in-Chief DURING WARTIME. That's TREASON.

I hope they all get the ever-lovin' snot beaten out of them in November.
