“Investors [are] trying to get a sense of the Trump administration’s priorities. President Donald Trump said in an interview with Fox Business on Wednesday he wants to tackle health care reform before implementing new tax policy. … Stocks rallied after Trump was elected in part because of the prospects of lower taxes, deregulation and fiscal policy. … ‘He didn’t say anything new,’ said Peter Boockvar, chief market analyst at The Lindsey Group. ‘The question is how far along health care is, because depending on what they get done there, they’ll know what kind of tax reform they can get.'”
Emphasize the last sentence above. By now, everyone understands that cutting taxes for corporations and the rich depends on taking health care away from the poor, working, and middle classes, because that’s where the money for any new tax giveaways has to come from, given their unwillingness to borrow it. Trump, and the Republicans in Congress, can’t pay for the one without doing the other. Thus, so-called tax “reform” has to wait until they know how much money they can vacuum up by cutting health spending. Their only alternative is increasing deficits and finding countries willing to lend to them at low interest rates — China? Russia? Republicans are in a bind and they know it. Expect continued turbulence at their townhalls … and in financial markets, too.
19
Roger Rabbitspews:
Meanwhile, Janet Yellen’s departure from the Federal Reserve early next year is no longer a given; Trump dropped hints today that he might reappoint her. During the campaign, he was emphatic that he wouldn’t, so this appears to be yet another policy shift as the novice politician, learning as he goes in his first political job, bumps up against real-life realities.
Roger Rabbit Commentary: I think Yellen should stay. Policy continuity is important, especially now. But even more than that, she has been an able successor to Bernanke, whose own record in office was less than perfect, and the Fed is now on exactly the right policy track. It should continue to gradually raise interest rates, until rates “normalize” and resume being set by the market, and it should gradually taper down its balance sheet by letting the securities it amassed during the QEs run off as they reach their maturities. Any attempt by Trump to reverse Fed policy and extend the “financial repression” of the Fed’s response to the crisis, in a fruitless effort to goose GDP growth, will simply prolong the market distortions that are now holding back growth and setting the stage for another financial crisis down the road.

The stock market is beginning to react to the unreality enshrouding Drumpf’s economic stimulus schemes.

But even GOP congressman have a sense of self-preservation, so the odds of these schemes coming to fruition are growing slimmer every day, and Wall Street knows it.

@36 (continued) In case you’ve forgotten, here it is again:
“During the transition between administrations, National Security Adviser Sandy Berger arranged several extensive briefings on this last subject for Bush’s incoming national security adviser, Condoleeza Rice, and others on the Bush team, including Vice President Cheney. One briefing lasted half a day. Berger told them that Osama bin Laden was an ‘existential threat’ and told them that he wanted ‘to underscore how important this issue is.’ In another briefing, Richard Clarke, head of counterterrorism in the NSC, the single most knowledgeable expert in the government, gave them a complete tutorial on the subject. In yet another briefing, CIA officials were brought in to go over all the intelligence available on terrorism.
“Don Kerrick, a three-star general and outgoing deputy national security adviser, overlapped for four months with the new Bush people. He submitted a memo for the new National Security Council warning of the danger of terrorism. ‘We are going to be struck again,’ he wrote. But as Kerrick explained to me, he received no answer to his memo. ‘They didn’t respond,’ he said. ‘They never responded. It was not high on their priority list. I was never invited to one meeting. They never asked me to do anything. They were not focusing. They didn’t see terrorism as the big megaissue that the Clinton administration saw it as. They were concentrated on what they thought were higher priorities than terrorism.’ The Principals meeting of national security officials took up terrorism only once, after constant pressure from Clarke, on September 4, 2001, and at that meeting they discussed using unmanned Predator drone spy aircraft, but no decision was made. ‘Unfortunately,’ said Kerrick, ‘September 11 gave them something to focus on.’”

Isolation would have worked out well had Woodrow Wilson practiced it and kept us out of the European War. The sides would have fought themselves to a brutal end and reached an armistice on their own. Hitler would not have come to power, and the Second European War would have never happened.
Getting involved in foreign disasters has done nothing for us other than diminish our civil liberties and run-up $20 trillion on our credit card.
The first Gulf War was a mistake. Had Bush just stayed out of it, Al Qaeda would have never come into existence. What infuriated Bin Laden was non-Mulsims (American, Brits, French) on Holy Muslim Ground, i.e. the Saudi Penninsula. For whatever reason, devout, fundamentalist Muslims think their sandbox is holy ground and “infidels” on that land are tantamount to pissing in the Holy Water at a Catholic church.
The only way Muslims are going to change for the better is for the West to get out of the way. Once young Muslims realize what these crazy imams are preaching means living in the dark Ages forever. Nothin will happen as long as Westerners are in the Middle East.

Two individuals in Chicago arrested for wanting to toss gay people off the tallest building in Chicago; they were holding or shown standing in front of the black flag of the Islamic radicals.
Before any trolls start to say “see us conservatives aren’t that bad, because radical extremist Muslims or the Muslim faith calls for that”, you need to look in a mirror.
Calling for the tossing off of a gay person from a building is no different from a terrorist flying a plane into a building and an individual resorting to jumping out the window of said building (which actually happened) to escape death of a burning building or escaped death at the hands of a terrorist. No different to want to kill a gay person than to want kill a straight, gay or bi person by flying a plane or bombing them in a bomb. No difference – don’t let them make you think there is.
There is no difference of this type of ideology and wanting to deny gay person equal rights and protections under the law for being a group of different people. And I would actually think that it is more of a slap in the face for an American to think this way. I am an American, and in America we have freedoms that all Americans should stand up for. Being against same sex marriage gives fuel to the ideology of wanting to toss someone off a building, its just a couple of degrees higher; and for an American to feel that way is repulsive.
Furthermore, conservatives probably give two shits about the accusations of Chechnya rounding up and torturing and killing gays, why on earth would they care if Muslims tossed gay people off buildings. Political motive? Self righteous conservatives never let an opportunity go to waste even if there is false equivalency.

@ 91
When was the poll regarding the Obama Syria question taken? Beforehand, when he was considering it? During the middle of it, when the navy was in place to launch before he called it off so he could consult, making him seem uncertain and insecure? Or after, when he turned the question over to Congress instead of making it himself? For that matter, what question was polled?
When the Trump poll was taken, it was already mission complete, and everyone saw what had been done with some idea of the effect.
I guess it’s a good thing it wasn’t Commander-in-Chief #CrookedHillary’s polled results being compared with Obama’s, because then we’d have gender to consider, and not just race.
All of which assumes, of course, that your argument continues to ignore differences in context- one guy ended up making a decision to pull the trigger, the other guy turned the decision over to others.

At least you’re consistent about this. Whenever your bullshit is cornered you lie.
Nobody “saw” shit. They were told whatever the fuck the DoD wanted them to be told. And as anybody could have predicted the missile stunt didn’t do anything. The base was operational within hours, not days. The effect? Who the fuck knows? Obviously if there is any “effect” it is purely psychological and still to be determined. $100 million dollars in ordinance expended in under 20 minutes for a psychological effect. Maybe, just maybe that’s why Democrats opinions of the stunt remain largely unchanged.

Here’s Ossoff in a Republican sponsored GA-6 poll leading the field at 39%. Of course Treason Trump supporters describe this as a “shocking” beating, even though the next closest vote getter is at only 15%. And it’s worth noting that in this deeeeeep reddest of Georgia CDs, none of them could name even one of those Trumpublican candidates if you paid them.
Two things of note: if the poll is accurate then overall turnout will be relatively low and early voters will account for a very large percentage of the total vote; Ossoff is crushing among voters who express “disapproval” of Trump’s performance. Going into a runoff, both of those factors will probably be very important.

“Investors [are] trying to get a sense of the Trump administration’s priorities. President Donald Trump said in an interview with Fox Business on Wednesday he wants to tackle health care reform before implementing new tax policy. … Stocks rallied after Trump was elected in part because of the prospects of lower taxes, deregulation and fiscal policy. … ‘He didn’t say anything new,’ said Peter Boockvar, chief market analyst at The Lindsey Group. ‘The question is how far along health care is, because depending on what they get done there, they’ll know what kind of tax reform they can get.'”
http://www.cnbc.com/2017/04/12/us-markets.html
Emphasize the last sentence above. By now, everyone understands that cutting taxes for corporations and the rich depends on taking health care away from the poor, working, and middle classes, because that’s where the money for any new tax giveaways has to come from, given their unwillingness to borrow it. Trump, and the Republicans in Congress, can’t pay for the one without doing the other. Thus, so-called tax “reform” has to wait until they know how much money they can vacuum up by cutting health spending. Their only alternative is increasing deficits and finding countries willing to lend to them at low interest rates — China? Russia? Republicans are in a bind and they know it. Expect continued turbulence at their townhalls … and in financial markets, too.
Roger Rabbit spews:
Meanwhile, Janet Yellen’s departure from the Federal Reserve early next year is no longer a given; Trump dropped hints today that he might reappoint her. During the campaign, he was emphatic that he wouldn’t, so this appears to be yet another policy shift as the novice politician, learning as he goes in his first political job, bumps up against real-life realities.
Roger Rabbit Commentary: I think Yellen should stay. Policy continuity is important, especially now. But even more than that, she has been an able successor to Bernanke, whose own record in office was less than perfect, and the Fed is now on exactly the right policy track. It should continue to gradually raise interest rates, until rates “normalize” and resume being set by the market, and it should gradually taper down its balance sheet by letting the securities it amassed during the QEs run off as they reach their maturities. Any attempt by Trump to reverse Fed policy and extend the “financial repression” of the Fed’s response to the crisis, in a fruitless effort to goose GDP growth, will simply prolong the market distortions that are now holding back growth and setting the stage for another financial crisis down the road.

Absolutely everything Trump has promised, and Republicans hope to do, depends on taking health care away from millions of American citizens least able to afford the runaway costs of our dysfunctional health system to finance tax giveaways to corporations and the uber-wealthy people with whom Trump has filled his cabinet. But even GOP congressman have a sense of self-preservation, so the odds of these schemes coming to fruition are growing slimmer every day, and Wall Street knows it.

“During the transition between administrations, National Security Adviser Sandy Berger arranged several extensive briefings on this last subject for Bush’s incoming national security adviser, Condoleeza Rice, and others on the Bush team, including Vice President Cheney. One briefing lasted half a day. Berger told them that Osama bin Laden was an ‘existential threat’ and told them that he wanted ‘to underscore how important this issue is.’ In another briefing, Richard Clarke, head of counterterrorism in the NSC, the single most knowledgeable expert in the government, gave them a complete tutorial on the subject. In yet another briefing, CIA officials were brought in to go over all the intelligence available on terrorism.
“Don Kerrick, a three-star general and outgoing deputy national security adviser, overlapped for four months with the new Bush people. He submitted a memo for the new National Security Council warning of the danger of terrorism. ‘We are going to be struck again,’ he wrote. But as Kerrick explained to me, he received no answer to his memo. ‘They didn’t respond,’ he said. ‘They never responded. It was not high on their priority list. I was never invited to one meeting. They never asked me to do anything. They were not focusing. They didn’t see terrorism as the big megaissue that the Clinton administration saw it as. They were concentrated on what they thought were higher priorities than terrorism.’ The Principals meeting of national security officials took up terrorism only once, after constant pressure from Clarke, on September 4, 2001, and at that meeting they discussed using unmanned Predator drone spy aircraft, but no decision was made. ‘Unfortunately,’ said Kerrick, ‘September 11 gave them something to focus on.’”

Then your side spends the next 18 months crowing about how the GOP underperformed in GA-6 until it turns out Dems lose 4 Senate seats during the midterms.
Between now and then you’ll come up with a million ways of writing that you’ll take over both chambers and lock Trump down in his final two years.
Until the first Wednesday in November of 2018, when you realize Ryan’s still gonna be in charge of the House, and it will be 56 Senate seats under GOP control and not 48, as you had hoped.
If I have to put up with all sorts of crap until then, OK.

Maybe. Barely. And at what cost? This CD lies squarely at the heart of what pre-Trump-Treason election analysts considered horse heaven for bloated, elite, conservative con artists pleading the old religion of Southern Strateejury. Perhaps the thought of their daughters facing decades of crotch groping from hairless sweating dude-bros with toxic coffee breath has made the NASCAR dads pause?
And with Ryan declaring Obamacare “the law of the land”, with the tax cut packages drowning under a tidal wave of FREEDUMB, and with the infrastructure package all but abandoned as an afterthought, I wouldn’t be so confident that corporate special interests are still on board the Russian Hayride.

“@21 Do you honestly believe if we ignore the MIddle East, the MIddle East will ignore us? How well did isolationism work in the thirties? I guess some people don’t learn from experience.”
Isolation would have worked out well had Woodrow Wilson practiced it and kept us out of the European War. The sides would have fought themselves to a brutal end and reached an armistice on their own. Hitler would not have come to power, and the Second European War would have never happened.
Getting involved in foreign disasters has done nothing for us other than diminish our civil liberties and run-up $20 trillion on our credit card.
The first Gulf War was a mistake. Had Bush just stayed out of it, Al Qaeda would have never come into existence. What infuriated Bin Laden was non-Mulsims (American, Brits, French) on Holy Muslim Ground, i.e. the Saudi Penninsula. For whatever reason, devout, fundamentalist Muslims think their sandbox is holy ground and “infidels” on that land are tantamount to pissing in the Holy Water at a Catholic church.
The only way Muslims are going to change for the better is for the West to get out of the way. Once young Muslims realize what these crazy imams are preaching means living in the dark Ages forever. Nothin will happen as long as Westerners are in the Middle East.

Two individuals in Chicago arrested for wanting to toss gay people off the tallest building in Chicago; they were holding or shown standing in front of the black flag of the Islamic radicals.
Before any trolls start to say “see us conservatives aren’t that bad, because radical extremist Muslims or the Muslim faith calls for that”, you need to look in a mirror.
Calling for the tossing off of a gay person from a building is no different from a terrorist flying a plane into a building and an individual resorting to jumping out the window of said building (which actually happened) to escape death of a burning building or escaped death at the hands of a terrorist. No different to want to kill a gay person than to want kill a straight, gay or bi person by flying a plane or bombing them in a bomb. No difference – don’t let them make you think there is.
There is no difference of this type of ideology and wanting to deny gay person equal rights and protections under the law for being a group of different people. And I would actually think that it is more of a slap in the face for an American to think this way. I am an American, and in America we have freedoms that all Americans should stand up for. Being against same sex marriage gives fuel to the ideology of wanting to toss someone off a building, its just a couple of degrees higher; and for an American to feel that way is repulsive.
Furthermore, conservatives probably give two shits about the accusations of Chechnya rounding up and torturing and killing gays, why on earth would they care if Muslims tossed gay people off buildings. Political motive? Self righteous conservatives never let an opportunity go to waste even if there is false equivalency.
Face it, you gay hating Americans you are no different than terrorists.
#86 spews:
America is the Middle East – no different if you don’t fight for all freedom and everyone’s freedoms.

And healthy, well educated, affluent progressives will only harm ourselves and hold ourselves back by trying to accommodate them. This idiotic fable of White Supremacy is encoded into them. They can no more see it than they can see their own chins without a mirror. We can’t change that. This is who they are and who they will remain until they die.

The same phenomenon of overwhelmingly lopsided negative partisan bias among Treason Party voters reveals itself in poll after poll – on everything from economic confidence to fears about crime. Sure it isn’t entirely about race. Race just amplifies it. Lots. Lots and lots. The objective facts on the ground don’t mean shit to hillbillies. Identity is everything. Identity and Okie Noodlin’.

@ 91
When was the poll regarding the Obama Syria question taken? Beforehand, when he was considering it? During the middle of it, when the navy was in place to launch before he called it off so he could consult, making him seem uncertain and insecure? Or after, when he turned the question over to Congress instead of making it himself? For that matter, what question was polled?
When the Trump poll was taken, it was already mission complete, and everyone saw what had been done with some idea of the effect.
I guess it’s a good thing it wasn’t Commander-in-Chief #CrookedHillary’s polled results being compared with Obama’s, because then we’d have gender to consider, and not just race.
All of which assumes, of course, that your argument continues to ignore differences in context- one guy ended up making a decision to pull the trigger, the other guy turned the decision over to others.

At least you’re consistent about this. Whenever your bullshit is cornered you lie.
Nobody “saw” shit. They were told whatever the fuck the DoD wanted them to be told. And as anybody could have predicted the missile stunt didn’t do anything. The base was operational within hours, not days. The effect? Who the fuck knows? Obviously if there is any “effect” it is purely psychological and still to be determined. $100 million dollars in ordinance expended in under 20 minutes for a psychological effect. Maybe, just maybe that’s why Democrats opinions of the stunt remain largely unchanged.

Probably when the poll was taken people were told we took out an airbase.

Elijah Dominic McDotcom spews:
Here’s Ossoff in a Republican sponsored GA-6 poll leading the field at 39%. Of course Treason Trump supporters describe this as a “shocking” beating, even though the next closest vote getter is at only 15%. And it’s worth noting that in this deeeeeep reddest of Georgia CDs, none of them could name even one of those Trumpublican candidates if you paid them.
Two things of note: if the poll is accurate then overall turnout will be relatively low and early voters will account for a very large percentage of the total vote; Ossoff is crushing among voters who express “disapproval” of Trump’s performance. Going into a runoff, both of those factors will probably be very important.
