Romney Advisers: We're Losing

Whining? I won't whine if obama actually does something to improve the ecomomy, but my bet is, he won't. We'll have another 4 yrs just like these 4, and more importantly, he will do nothing about the growth of entitlements, which consumes more and more of our budget each day we don't address them.

Why would businesses start investing in new employees with the uncertainty of income taxes, capital gains taxes, health care regulations, and especially the real possiblity of a non-campaigning Obama for four more years? Smart employers should be holding on to their cash. I don't think you and many on the left understand business and you most likely never will.

Exactly, why would the 1% create new jobs when they can blackmail this country into giving them new and bigger tax breaks and the Republicans will promote and knuckle under to that blackmail.

It's not just the 1% who are affected by the prospect of Obama's second term. And if you could, please explain how the prospect of higher taxes, new regulations, new penalties, and the new health care law is a recipe for motivating employers to hire and invest their capital.

Raees, you'd make a good writer for a campaign - you apparently can't form a thought that's longer than what can be expressed in a cartoon caption.

That's not a cartoon. But yes, I do find other brighter minds than mine produce witty little graphics that express thoughts better than I do.

It's worth noting the group that produce many of the graphics I post are "WeLoveToIrritateHatefulRepublicans."

Actually, all the pictures you post are blocked by the server at work, so I don't get the joy of reading them (I do appreciate the humor on most, even if I don't agree).

I'm just surprised at the number of posts I see from you that are just a red X with no additional thought, and was reflecting on LJ's recent rant about Conservatives resorting to posting cartoons when they don't have a valid argument.

Struck me as funny

Why risk what you have in a very uncertain future if more of the rewards for taking that risk are to be taken from you instead of held by you? Investing now is riskier than it is during a good economy, right? You believe that the way to encourage taking a greater risk is by offering a smaller reward? Seriously?
