LG the outrage comes from the wastefull spending of the money on a friendly (to the admin) news network.

Nail on the head.

While LG white washes this because its not 16 tril $ and its a small amount in comparison, if you don't see this as a big problem with politicians and bigger government your naive and foolish


I dismiss it as an issue because it was THREE YEARS AGO.

Interestingly, the linked article says the administration "spends" money on it on MSNBC. Not "spent," which would be correct. Or even more accurate "three years ago spent," but no, they label it as "spends."

Gee, wonder why.

Gotcha, so anything that happened three years ago or more doesn't matter.

Why not just come out with it LG. You dismiss it because its Obama. You don't have to hide behind "three years ago" it makes your 20 years of tax returns look silly.

You're way too hung up on this semantic. I'm the OP, and based on my interpretation of the article I wrote the thread title which says "paid", as in past tense. It obviously doesn't matter to me when it occurred. Theft is theft.

You're bat-**** or not real. Which is it?

Nothing. Because it is three years old. It isn't news. Its a stupid false outrage piece. Typical.

Apparently it was just uncovered. Interestingly enough Brian Terry was killed about 3 years ago and we still can't get the details on that from the most transparent admin in history.

LOL, you nitwits are all up in arms about $500,000 worth of stimulus money, spent three years ago, because it was on MSNBC. You feign outrage by pretending it happened during the campaign, and that anyone remembers this. And when point out the absurdity of the complaint that this isn't a breaking "news" story, you call ME out as why Washington doesn't work?

I agree with you that Washington's fundamental problem is job preservation,

and that is why money has so corrupted the process. So let's focus on the role of the really big money and what is doing to all facets of the process and not distract ourselves with intentionally mischaracterizing articles about crap like this.

We are pissed because its our hard earned tax dollars again not being used to stimulate but to kick back to cronies. Ita unethical.

From here on out, any time LG mentions Romney's tax returns, he should be met with a barrage of "it was over three years ago!"

what part of him funneling tax dollars to his supporters is incorrect?


You mean like where Ryan twice denied that he sought stimulus dollars whilst opposing stimulus spending. Then confronted with the letters he wrote asking for funding four times, he finally admitted it. And that he on top of that has lobbied the DOT for funds to go to two companies whose owners are big campaign contributors?

semantics, over theft of tax dollars passed off as economic stimulus? So let's ignore the ethical piece of garbage because he did it 3 years ago?

Presumably, since his made up transcript is 25 years old, we can just let him make another in crayon to match the birth certificate and get on down the road.

The absurdity of your position here says more about you than anything else I've seen here, and lumps you in with the likes of davol and others who clearly can't think their way out of a paper sack. Congrats on the promotion.

Double-posting like a noob, and trying to sidetrack the conversation. Ryan isn't a valid comparison. I believe you ignored the valid comparison that was presented:

the Obama admin gave govt funds to their supporters. Would you be as forgiving if W had given govt money to run ads on Rush or Hannity's show?

well I'm not voting for Ryan either so your attempt to distract is useless.

Obama took money promised for job creation, created zero jobs with it and instead gave it back to those that helped fund and promote his campaign.

and you're still going on about tax returns?

the whole thing is fubar. Obama is just the worst. The fact that alot of people miss the days of bill clinton shows how crappy our choices have gotten. It will never get better though unless the media becomes unbias and starts asking evrryone hard questions.
