assume chinese crazy debt federal paul people point reserve ron states talk united
Ron Paul's crazy talk about the Federal Reserve makes more sense these days. Right now, every - all this debt issued by the United States people assume the Chinese are buying, no they don't want any more American debt. Ron Paul has a point there.
reading people example
Popular culture as a whole is popular, but in today's fragmented market it's a jostle of competing unpopular popular cultures. As the critic Stanley Crouch likes to say, if you make a movie and 10 million people go see it, you'll gross $100 million - and 96 per cent of the population won't have to be involved. That alone should caution anyone about reading too much into individual examples of popular culture.
people president republic
Reverend Jesse Jackson, President-for-Life of the People's Republic of Himself.
europe people liberty
Europe by the end of this century will be a continent after the neutron bomb. The grand buildings will still be standing, but the people who built them will be gone.
jobs people new-job
Last month, 80,000 Americans signed on to new jobs, but 85,000 Americas signed on for Social Security disability checks. Most of these people are not 'disabled' as that term is generally understood. Rather, it's the U.S. economy that's disabled, and thus Obama incentivizes dependency.
people three widows
The United Auto Workers is AARP in an Edsel: It has three times as many retirees and widows as 'workers' (I use the term loosely). GM has 96,000 employees but provides health benefits to a million people.
people community wish
Like most people, I have no wish to live in a community organized by community organizers.
people waste rich
The greatest crime of welfare isn't that it's a waste of money, but that it's a waste of people.
fundraising people fake
Can't spell, can't spot fake Shakespeare, can't tell one wacky foreigner from another: it's increasingly obvious that Barbra is some deep sleeper planted by the Republicans to discredit the very concept of activist celebrities. Poor old Democrats, in thrall to her fundraising: people who need Barbra are the unluckiest people in the world.
winning people taste
But, once you get a taste for shutting people up, it's hard to stop. Why bother winning the debate when it's easier to close it down?
responsibility people pockets
The best reason to diminish social programs is not to put more money in people's pockets but to put more responsibility in people's pockets.
clear four good mitt needs romney
The Romney candidacy is better than it was four years ago, but it's not clear that it's good. Mitt needs to get good real fast: A real speech, real plan, real responses, and real fire in the belly.
mitt needed ton
Mitt has a ton of consultants, and not one of them thought he needed a credible answer on Bain or taxes?
country age demand
The spirit of the age is: Ask not what your country can do for you, demand it.
