    Liar. He did not say that Mike Castle was great.

  2. Rebecca says:

    The only way to sell their agenda is by scaring the beedoobers out of people. It’s worked so far.

  3. FSP says:

    Yeah, lots of fear in that speech. Rebecca, you might want to actually watch the video before commenting on it.

    In fact, two interesting points I took from the speech:

    1) Americans have $30 Trillion more in assets than liabilities.

    2) Forbes promoted his candidate Giuliani without once mentioning 9/11.

    Are you kidding me? That’s fantastic news. Can I use Mr. Forbes’ yacht to pay my heating bill?

  5. FSP says:

    Ah, yes, Class warfare. That’s on page 2 of the manual, right?

  6. jason330 says:

    We are only now joining the battle johnny. Class warefare has been a GOP pastime for 20 years.

    I know you liked it when Democrats would lay down and let themselves get kicked in the head, but those days are over.

  7. FSP says:

    Riiiiiiight. Whatever helps you sleep at night in your comfortable suburban home…

  8. jason330 says:

    Oh jeez. That’s right. I have a comfortable suburban home so I am supposed to sell out the union men, and working class schmucks like my grandfather who provided me me the opportunity to live here.

    What was I thinking, time to pull up the ladder behind me and become a good Republican.

    Fuck you working stiffs!! Every man for himself, starting now.

  9. FSP says:

    But however did you get up that ladder with all that class warfare that the GOP was allegedly playing??

    Imagine if there were tens of millions of people just like you!

  10. Von Cracker says:

    Then I guess there would be more people at the party. Which wouldn’t be good for class warfare politics…….

  11. jason330 says:

    I’m quite sure that I am where I am in spite of the GOP’s economic policies – not because of them.

    Since WWII liberal economic theory prevailed and the middle class was the result. The wide disparity between rich and poor that we know today is a recent Republican invention.

    Most economists agree that we’ve passed through a kind of golden age of social and economic mobility. It was a golden age that Forbes spends five minutes lamenting by the way.

  12. Von Cracker says:

    The only things Forbes has stuggled against is basic skin care and whether to wear all-white at the club….

    A big F-U to Steve and his delusional theories…

  13. Dorian Gray says:

    Current opens. Cue old privileged white guy. “What about rugged individualism and personal responsibility. Pull yourself up by your own boot straps. You have to seize your own opportunities. I’m tired of *wink* ‘these people’ *wink* feeling entitled!”

    Meanwhile we’re entering a new Gilded Age with no middle class. Awesome!

  14. Von Cracker says:

    To the right, Darwinism doesn’t exist unless it’s confined to Socio-ecomonic issues.

  15. Dorian Gray says:

    Someone has been reading their J.A. Paulos! Nice work VC. It is interesting that most of the right wingers who embrace the creation myth accept “survival of the fittest” from an economic standpoint. The complexity of the global economy didn’t need a designer either.

    Dawkins makes a point that one of the interesting things about human animals is we may have evolved to the point where we can actually counteract natural selection.
