    Really? So there are enough people like that to vote a president into office, is that so? Can you tell me the breakdown of those who collect government welfare, demographics and all? You seem to know a lot about this topic...unless you're just talking out of your ass. But you wouldn't be doing that...would you?

    So your telling me through the course of American history the same number of people have collected government welfare checks and this number has not increased?

    Im not saying EVERYBODY who voted for Obama is lazy, Im just making a educated guess that everybody who found out they dont have to work to collect $ is voting for Obama=lazy.

    I really wouldn't call that an educated guess, it is just a guess. In fact, it is a wrong guess, since the vast majority of the states receiving the vast majority welfare vote Republican...so do you feel the same way knowing that you are wrong and that these lazy people swing red? Honest question.

    3)Massachusetts
    4)Vermont
    5)District of Columbia (not a state)
    6)New York
    7)Minnesota
    8)Washington
    9)New Mexico
    10)Rhode Island
    11)Michigan
    12)Pennsylvania
    13)Oregon

    Yes, but you wouldn't call GW Bush or Reagan lazy if they did the same.

    That would be called being a "TOOL."

    Please stop calling texxx racist. You've all fallen into his trap. He used the words he did not because he believes them, or because he's racist (thought he may be) but because he wanted everyone to react and call him racist.

    It was a horrible troll attempt, and too many people are feeding the troll.

    again you'd rather call my thread a troll attempt that actually call out Obama on taking a TWENTY DAY vacation while the American public and government struggle with the fiscal cliff, which has no resolution in sight. Further highlighting Obama's laziness has been his outsourcing of the fiscal cliff to Tim Geithner.

    just shows that you're not willing to think critically, but instead you'd prefer to hurl insults

    Hmm, liberal states tend to have stronger safety nets that provide public assistance during a massive economic downturn.

    Also, that list is based on how many people got on food stamps after the crash and shockingly the states with the most robust safety nets helped the most people.

    Then again, providing no support for these people is clearly the best idea. I mean all of that growth and wealth in the deep south is ample proof of that idea.

    Also your list is deceptive since it only looks at state spending on safety nets. If you look at federal spending, Republican states disproportionately receive more federal spending than they send out in the form of taxes

    Geithner works for Obama, that's called delegating. Laziness and intellectual dishonesty on your part. Anyway, if you don't like it don't vote for him. WHOOOPS we already voted didn't we? :grin:

    LOL broski, I'll give you a chance to go look at your link and where those numbers are from
    here's a hint *this isn't a list of the states that receive the most money in federal aid!*
    That list doesn't even include most of the poorest states. Go ahead and re-read brah, I'll wait...

    When you mean you are, you use you're, not your. Additionally, you don't use cant unless you mean jargon or argot. In your post, you would use can't, which is a contraction for can not.

    What is it with Conservatives and basic grammar?

    The timing and announcement of this trip is pretty bad.

    As a counter point on leadership, Bush got ripped to shreds with how he handled Katrina. If you were critical about that, you should be somewhat critical about this. Worse here though is we've known about this issue coming for quite some time. It would be nice for a change if Washington would not wait until the last minute to come up with a game plan.

    It sounds to me like Obama is just doing his part to offset the spending cut portion of the Fiscal Cliff.

    Four million from using air force one. Why you use sources from the blaze Texx? Lost that WSJ subscription? The google can help lift you over that paywall if funds are tight.

    We don't want another gay coke smoking limo driver fiasco from you.

    Good you mentioned Bush...Obama received praise for Sandy, the more similar apples to apples comparison.

    I don't know who you're expecting to be the "bigger party" here, but the entire Fiscal Cliff situation is a manufactured crisis to act as a last minute poison pill for members of Congress to act. I don't see how the president physically bring there will accomplish anything early on, much like the similar complaints other con members have voiced about this whenever the president takes a vacation on normal holiday seasons.

    At least you didn't pretend to bee an amnesiac when it comes to Bush.

    Lazy? He is the President you turd, he has one of the most stressful jobs in the world.

    This was clearly a racist jab when you added "Lazy" in there, try not to be so open about it next time. I hope the mods get you for this.
