The Life of Julia - A Barack Obama Story

Quote from LivninSC : I believe the insinuation is that she's not an invalid if she can garden...

Other than the OP, who claimed the fictitious character was an invalid?

Quote from 124nic8 : You don't seem to understand that SS was implemented only due to a failure of capitalism when it collapsed the last time.

Thanks for the laugh so early in the morning.

Anyone who votes for this nutjob needs to be committed. I mean ,seriously. Welcome to the Russian err American propaganda machine....

"Welcome my son, welcome to the machine.
Where have you been? It's alright we know where you've been.
You've been in the pipeline, filling in time,
provided with toys and Scouting for Boys.
You bought a guitar to punish your ma,
And you didn't like school, and you know you're nobody's fool,
So welcome to the machine.
Welcome my son, welcome to the machine.
What did you dream? It's alright we told you what to dream.
You dreamed of a big star, he played a mean guitar,
He always ate in the Steak Bar. He loved to drive in his Jaguar.
So welcome to the machine."

Quote from vaultaddict : Other than the OP, who claimed the fictitious character was an invalid?

Not defending OP but perhaps the use of the term "invalid" was more a reflection on the consistent theme in the BO website about how this woman can't seem to make anything of herself without something from the government?

invalid: a person suffering from disablement or chronic ill health

Yes, it was. I apologize for any confusion. I wonder why Barack Obama finds Julia incapable.

Quote from 124nic8 : I looked at the first page. My comments were wrt assertions made in the OP about dependent invalids. And many Julias cause Julia paid for her SS. Your assertion is a mega over-simplification. The OP misrepresented Julia as a dependent invalid.

Actually, the article makes no mention at all of Julia paying any tax. Just Julia being a mooch.

When is someone going to make a thread about Obama's composite Girlfriend in his autobiography. I think that story is way more amusing.

Thanks for the meaningless response. Not.

Quote from Krazen1211 : Actually, the article makes no mention at all of Julia paying any tax. Just Julia being a mooch.

And you find a pol promoting benefits and not costs unusual?

Did you just fall off the turnip truck?

Quote from Krazen1211 : Yes, it was. I apologize for any confusion. I wonder why Barack Obama finds Julia incapable.

That seems to be only your slant. Just cause it's not emphasized on your cite does not mean what you think.

Quote from 124nic8 : And you find a pol promoting benefits and not costs unusual? Did you just fall off the turnip truck?

Certainly, yes. No prior President has found the particular need to give Julia so much money. Nor does Mr. Romney.

Quote from Krazen1211 : Certainly, yes. No prior President has found the particular need to give Julia so much money.

You're joking right?

LBJ gave Julia so much money that Bill Clinton had to take some of it back.

Quote from 124nic8 : Thanks for the meaningless response. Not.

Is this better?

Quote : It is unsupported inflamatory "beliefs" which are trolling.

Quote from paperboy05 : Is this better?

Hardly. Do you disagree that SS was implemented after and because of the widespread failure of banks which wiped out peoples' life savings during the Great Depression?

See the problem with your meaningless response is that it is just self-indulgent trolling which gives no information about what ignorance needs informing.

BTW, the post you were laughing at was not meant to be inflamatory; it reflects what I believe to be mainstream political views. I'm surprised you're even contesting it.

Quote from 124nic8 : You're joking right? LBJ gave Julia so much money that Bill Clinton had to take some of it back.

What do you mean joking? The policies that Barack Obama claims that Julia needs didn't exist when LBJ was President. Indeed, when LBJ was President government spending was far smaller than the ~23% of GDP it is today.

Quote from 124nic8 : Hardly. Do you disagree that SS was implemented after and because of the widespread failure of banks which wiped out peoples' life savings during the Great Depression?

No, I disagree that SS was implemented only due to a failure of capitalism.

Quote : See the problem with your meaningless response is that it is just self-indulgent trolling which gives no information about what ignorance needs informing.

Ah, that's your problem. You troll and then throw out a strawman in order to show you weren't trolling (by your own definition).
