got any proof....or is it just YOUR fucked up opinion?

Uh, this thread pretty much proves you're a fucking liar, genius.

I did not lie ONCE.....I stated facts.

[Exterminator]

When you only include some of the facts and slant those in such a way as to make a point that is not true, it is lying.

then MSNBC, NBC, CBS, CNN, ABC are all liars then.....

the bottom line is I posted facts about some states, thier finanial status and who was governor.....and stated MY opinion.......that's it.

Draw your own conclusions...I am not the news....just somebody who loves to bug the shit out of you on this forum.

[me]

Because you are; here's why...

On the surface, this statement is almost true...it would be in Henry had said, "many of those states in serious debt are led by Democrat Governors."  Either way, it is a lie because it intentionally tries to paint a picture that isn't true.  I won't blame Henry for starting the lie because it's the Washington Post's slanted reporting that did it and he just took what they gave him and regurgitated it without having the intelligence to consider what it said, or more importantly, omitted.

The Post's article goes out of its way to avoid providing a complete list of the states with good performance or by mentioning any state with a surplus whose governor is a Democrat.  This is an intentional attempt to make it seem that only those states with Republican governors had surpluses while states with Democrat governors performed poorly...morons eat this shit up!  The reality is that 60% of the country's governors are Republicans and 40% are Democrats.  I think that if you do the research, you'll find that more or less 60% of the best performing states have Republican governors while the other 40% have Democrats (duh!)...likewise with the states with the worst performance.

Great talking point for those desperate to prove a point and for those too stupid and gullible to see through their ruse.

Did ya make a mistake there smart ass?  Oh no, you must have meant that 'cause you don't make mistakes......

There's a big difference between a typo and being illiterate, douche.

Oh I see, when you make a mistake it's a typo and when HH does it it's  due to being illiterate.  Must be one of the things you learned in your reasoning class.

Just his spinning abilities.............like most liberals. 

[Exterminator]

Look, you two ass-clowns, using the word, "is," intead of, "are," as in, "we is..." is not a fucking typo anymore than saying, "I seen him yesterday."  I am not spinning your third grade reading equivalencies; you are.

[The Troll]

Old man, say what you want.............big f'ing deal, we don't own a freaking highway up north.......big deal, that we have to change our clocks twice a year.....wow!  how horribe that is.  We are now doing what the rest of the country is doing.  Our schools are fine......no kid is going to be hurt.  We could NO longer continue to pay teachers the pay and benifits they are getting and not cut somewhere......we was overspending....and we now have a grip on  it......the POTUS should take note and some tips off of ol Mitch.

  You know Hawk you are a miserable son of a bitch.  Always want to cut some one Else's wages and benefits.  Damn there is no way I could have you for a friend.  For the main reason, I couldn't trust you as far as I could throw my F250 pickup truck.  You would stab me in the back the first time you got a chance, lie to me and bare false witness against me or anyone I know.

  I don't know what cause you to be the way you are.  But dude you are not human.  Well, you are a scab and as far as being religious you don't know the main thing in the bible.  The Golden Rule.  Do un to other as you would have done to you.  It is sure not in your book or your life.    Put something in the pot Henery, you need too big time.

Again, another typical liberal response....gotta get nasty and rude when they can no longer carry a civil debate.

Many states celebrate surpluses as Congress struggles with debt



As Washington stares at rising national debt and projected deficits for years to come, many states are faced with the opposite problem: whether to spend their budget surpluses and, if so, on what.
At least a dozen states ended fiscal 2011 with surpluses. Indiana reported one of the largest, with an extra $1.2 billion in its accounts. Gov. Mitch Daniels, a Republican, on Friday authorized bonus payments of up to $1,000 for state employees. An employee who "meets expectations" will get $500, those who "exceed expectations" will receive $750 and "outstanding workers" will see an extra $1,000 in their August paychecks.
"No state anywhere comes close to Indiana's record of spending tax dollars carefully, with total savings over the last six years in the billions. Your spending efficiency has enabled us to stay in the black even as revenues plummeted," said Mr. Daniels.

I find it very interesting many of the states reporting being in the black are led by REPUBLICAN Governors...and those states that are in serious debt are led by DEMOCRAT Govenors....hmmmmmmmmm....Maybe, just maybe, our POTUS should LISTEN to what these guys are doing to be successful with the taxpayers money.....

Idaho ended the year with an $85 million surplus....Gov. C.L. "Butch" Otter, a Republican

Maine finished the year with a surplus of nearly $50 million....Gov. Paul LePage, a Republican

Ohio had an $8 billion deficit, and has been wiped it out, and eliminated.... Gov. John Kasich, a Republican

South Carolina in the black..............Gov. Nikki Haley a Republican.

Connecticut ranked worst in the country with overall $53.35 billion of debt....Gov. Dannel Malloy a Democrat

Illinois with Gov Pat Quinn, a Democrat, Hawaii with Gov Neil Abercrombie, a Democrat, Kentucky, with Gov Steve Beshear a Democrat, Massachusetts with Gov Deval Patrick a Democrat...all extremely in debt.

But, then you go to;

Nebraska, with Republican Gov. Dave Heineman, North Dakota with Republican Jack Dalrymple, Utah, with Republican Gov. Gary R. Herbert and Wyoming, with Gov. Matt Mead , a REPULICAN....all have sufficient assets available to meet their debt obligations.

Is it JUST me who thinks this is just not ironic, but perhaps there is something to this?

http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2011/jul/17/many-states-celebrate-surpluses-as-congress-strugg/

  I seem funny how you pick out governor of Kentucky Steve Beshear as a governor who is in debt. 

  You must look a little farther.  Steve Beshear replaced Republican Ernie Fletcher who was dogged by political scandals.  Old Ernie Fletcher one of those good old  Southern boy left Kentucky in the same condition as George W. left Obama with a economy of garbage.

   You're going to wise up a little Hawk Boy.
