Bullshit, Obama is their benefactor. He gave them more than Dubya ever did. You would think after drawing down in Iraq, there would be defense cuts. That is a big fat welfare check to a small group.
They only complain about Obama for feeding the homeless which costs far less and benefits America. In fact, welfare probably saved the economy. See I can give Obama credit for that, and that is why I mock the GOPers so much for their partisanship. Don't make the same mistake for thinking he is not their benefactor too. He promised to tax the rich and cut defense. His stimulus went mostly to the banks.
It is like when you go to a mechanic and they do a shitty job just to make sure you come back and vote for Hillary.

Mindlessly supporting Obama is stupider than Cheesy calling me a Paulbot.
Not only did most of the bailout go to the banks, but Obama protected the financial criminals. Obama belongs to Wall Street.

so when you correct the record, you're just speaking out for truth. but when i do it, i am mindlessly supporting obama.
got it.
bailout and stimulus are not the same thing. stimulus went back to tax payers, infrastructure, and renewable energy.

obama's DOE has a better record of success investing in renewable energy than bain capital has at investing in anything they chose to.
but you keep whining about how in capitalism, sometimes companies fail. it just shows what a petty, mindless, righty-parroting idiot you are.
we all know it's based on race with you anyway, you even said black males are worthless.
and where did the 7 billion for mortgage relief/defense fund go?

Governments don't "invest" . They steal money from some people and sell special privilege to others. If tax cuts stimulate the economy, why have taxes at all? Oh wait, then they couldn't have wars could they?

More importantly, where did the money come from? How was it "acquired" ?

Mindlessly supporting Obama = correcting the record.
You see, since Obama is always right, and infallible, one need only mindlessly defend his actions and they too, will always be right and infallible.
Got it.
I do not think it incorrect to conflate TARP with ARRA. They were strategically calculated together to keep the economy from changing into something sustainable (which Wall Street did not want). I hear this line of reasoning often. It comes from the official language in ARRA which does not include the provisions of TARP which was a separate bill that passed several months prior.
The reason this argument is bull shit, insisting TARP and ARRA are seperate, is two fold. For one thing, they both happened during the 110th congress, that one magical period when democrats held so much power. For another thing, ARRA was made possible by TARP. No TARP, no ARRA.

There may be some repubs scared of clinton, but not as much as clinton is scared of Rand Paul.

The fact is, UncleBuck, you're about to try to argue that I used the word stimulus incorrectly, and insist that it refers only to ARRA. ARRA refers only to ARRA. Stimulus, as has been the case all along, as I am pointing out to you, refers to the entire budget approved by the 110th congress. Stimulus is not the official name for ARRA, so you can't lord over a pathetic semantic argument like "the stimulus and bailout were two different things".
I am in fact robbing you of your pettiness.

Because a system full of bad assets would have absorbed all of the funds appropriated in ARRA.
