Like other Fox News hosts, Hannity falsely claimed Obama's economic recovery plan gives money to people who "don't pay any taxes"

Well if you're calling Lanny Davis a liar, then take it up with him.

Actually, I think you're bot liars and since I can't take it up with him, it's all you.

Do you know what you would do if you became disabled at 26?

I'm not sure if you caught that whole thread, but AA also asked why dishonesty was inconsistent with Christianity.  Then he said that the problem with Tony's post was that he brought up Christianity on a thread that had nothing to do with it.  And when non-Christians bring it up, that proves bigotry.  Even if that were to be logical, how he knows Tony is not a Christian remains a mystery.  On top of all of that, he said that Christians will judge the behavior of other Christians, that's not the role of non-Christians.  This is all paraphrased, but I don't think I'm misrepresenting his words.

I've noticed similar behavior a few other times, where if Christianity is mentioned in any way then it's a scurrilous attack on the entire faith.  He would never explain why, and now that he's attempted to do so I can see why he avoided such efforts in the past.

Once again, as I just said on the Coulter thread, I was not attacking Christians or Christianity, I'm slamming people like Hannity, Coulter, Limbaugh and such who claim to be Christian, yet they spew lies and hatred all day long. Jesus did not teach that.

In fact, if Jesus were dumb enough to make his comeback in America, in particular in the rural, conservative South, he would probably be chained to the back of a pick up truck and dragged down a country road for being a long haired, touchy-feely liberal.

So Tony, when you go to dinner with friends and you all have the same meal and same drink and you get the final bill do you ask your friends who makes what before you decide what to pay.  If you are the individual with the least amount of income, do you get to pay less?  Each person should pay the same amount of the percentage of what was taken.  

When was the last time your boss actually created a job based on his own income?  My father is a VP, and he employs the same number of people in his factory regardless of whether his annual bonus is $60,000 or $150,000, let alone whether his tax rate changes.  I can promise you my father didn't hire anyone new when he got his Bush tax cut.  I think that was added to my inheritance.

Trickle-down Tommy, Reaganomics doesn't work.  George H.W. Bush was right when he called it "voodoo economics" back during the 1980 Republican Primaries.  Supply-side economics doesn't work.  There are still some delusional supply-siders out there.  Loony Larry Kudlow over on CNBC is like the Japanese guys who refused to believe that World War 2 was over 25 years after it ended or the people who still think Barack Obama is a Muslim.  You just give everything to the elites at the top, and the crumbs trickle down to the peasants.  Problem is the elites at the top keep everything for themselves--including the crumbs.  The peasants are left standing at the gates of the Palace and wondering when the crumbs will come.  It never worked, and never will. 

THANK YOU.

That doesn't follow.

"It’s somehow nobler because they still adhere to long disproved trickle-down theory that if you simply give rich people more money, they will take that money and “create” jobs for the people that need the money."

"I guess maybe because those that further that unfathomable myth actually believe that people with money are the ones who create jobs.  When is the last time you worked for a "poor" person?"

Just because it's the rich people who create the jobs doesn't mean that they will create jobs when given more money.  That is what Pete said.

"I guess maybe because those that further that unfathomable myth actually believe that people with money are the ones who create jobs." 

Simply giving a rich person more money is not going to "create" a job unless there also exits a demand for that rich person's product or service that is so great that hiring that person will bring more money to the business than it costs to employ them.  As we've seen all too much since Reagan, that rich person will often opt to destroy jobs here in America and create them elsewhere.

"When is the last time you worked for a "poor" person?"

In high school ('88-89).  I worked part time for a hock shop.  The owner lived in a two-bedroom fixer-upper and he drove a mid-70's Datsun wagon.

"When is the last time you worked for a "poor" person?"

Idiot. 

People of little to no means can get business loans and, if they have a knack for it, make a go of it. 

It's not inconceivable that a poor person could become an employer. You're just stuck in your bs corporate mindset, that's all.

When is the last time you worked for a "poor" person?

  If this is a world in which there are only rich and poor people I work for poor people very day.  There are not enough rich people in this country to support a large consumer economy which is necessary to support the company I work for.  So a rich person might be signing my paychecks, but the money got into his bank account because poor people gave it to him.

  Bill Gates needs temp code writers, Trump needs maids and desk clerks, the Walton family needs night stockers and truck drivers and they all need customers.  They do not give us jobs because they are philanthropists, they give us jobs to sustain and grow their own wealth. 

"It is not the employer who pays the wages. Employers only handle the money. It is the customer who pays the wages.”

"The highest use of capital is not to make more money, but to make money do more for the betterment of life.”

"There is one rule for industrialists and that is: Make the best quality of goods possible at the lowest cost possible, paying the highest wages possible”

HuntingtonBeachLefty, my friend.  Great to see you again.  I see you've joined the military now and your a colonel.  Congratulations to you, sir.  Rush has always struck me as a man who knows he's lying, and knows the limited mental capacity and bigoted nature of his knuckledragging audience.  Sean, on the other hand I believe, is a believer to a certain extent, but he is also lying and playing to a certain audience like Rush.  Rush, however, is probably a little sharper then Hannity, and hedges himself, like right after the 2006 Midterm Elections, when he said the day after Bush lost the Congress that he was tired of carrying water for people who don't deserve to have their water carried.  That clearly showed that for all those years he was lying when he was defending Bush, and he panicked and worried that people might see through him.  However, not surprisingly, and as I had predicted, his neanderthal audience was too stupid to realize that, and they continued listening to him, and shortly thereafter Rush went back to his usual propoganda--laughing at them and laughing, of course, as always and usual, all the way to the bank.  He recently signed a $50 million dollar a year contract while many of his listeners continue to live in trailer parks.

THANK YOU.

I have a real problem with the term "creating jobs for people". Someone said it in one of the posts above that jobs are created out of demand. Clearly, if jobs are created by the government simply for the sake of putting someone on the government payroll, then the deficit cycle perpetuates itself. Aside from that, there are too few examples of the government operating businesses in the "black". The 1930's job creation programs can't be duplicated in today's environment, such as the Black Canyon project, which was a huge success in terms of it's monumental structure and on-time delivery, but in terms of loss of human life, was an abject failure.

It thrives for some. Lots of other folks struggle just to make it. And even if income was taxed at the bottom, don't pretend like it would be enough to satisfy these wingnuts. The argument would simply shift to, "Oh, these people don't pay enough taxes justify such handouts."

Face it, conservatives are cold hearted.

How about the government just do a over haul of there spending and make some cuts in the money is being given out. - markbfoot199

Obama pledged to do just that. Less all the grammatical errors though.
