personally I think the whole thing was fucking bullshit.
The economy is as strong as it's been in a long time, which convieniently the media NEVER reports on, they do everything they do everything they possibly can to bash bush. Do you think of somone would have pulled this shit with clinton it would have gone unreported? Fuck no the guy would have been lambasted left and right! Personally I wish Bush would have gotten up and slugged the fucking bastard. -------------------- I r Ur Gawd!

QFT Why is it that there's so many people who play the "president doesn't have that big of an effect on the economy" card when it benefits them and then turn around and give the president credit for it when things go their way? It's not just the republicans on this one. Democrats do it too. -------------------- QUOTE (Spectatrix @ Oct 13 2006, 09:51 PM)  Holy shit, pebkac, you're awesome!

I agree that national debt is not ALL bad... but I think 8 trillion is a bit excessive. In any case, I think free trade agreements is a better guarantee of a nation not fucking with us than us being in debt to them is.
And it's all fine and dandy when we have debt for the primary purpose of keeping people on a tight leash, but when we get into that debt because of misspending (as seems to be the case here), then I have a problem with it. -------------------- |

The national debt is a double edged sword. It helps the economy by reducing inflation, by keeping investors invested in the country, keeping money out of the economy, thus keeping the dollar strong. However, these investors have to get paid eventually. And by who? By the future America. Taxes go up, while the rich get even richer. So instead of America helping those in need with social programs; instead of helping America's future with educational financial aid; instead of improving America's infrastructure by increasing state funding, America's future has to pay these investors. And the truth is, Brandon, it's going to be you and people like you and me who suffer the most. The working class. The working class are going to pay for the rich, and even more so than they do now. And so I find it ironic that you strongly support this debt.

On the other hand, if you pay the debt down too quickly, we're going to be living in inflation city.

i think its funny that he had the balls to say some of that stuff right in front of Bush, but i also think it was inappropriate/rude/disrespecftul, etc. You could tell most the audience felt uncomfortable by the lack of laughing and clapping. Just not the right time or place for that.

Ok ok, I don't get this... a lot of the comments in this are similar to those that Colbert made, yet THIS was favorably received by the audience whereas Colbert's performance wasn't. WHAT THE FUCK.

C-SPAN has as much right as anyone else to enforce their copyright. I think IP disputes can get a little silly, but I see no problem with this case. I'd be upset if C-SPAN were prohibiting it from being shown *anywhere* on the internet, but what's the big deal if they sold the viewing rights to Google?
