Scratch a Democrat, find an anti-democrat

Scratch a Democrat, find someone who hates democracy. Rep. Jim Moran (D-VA) says that President Obama should “refinance every home mortgage” without bothering to ask congressional idiots (like himself) in order to “reset the economy.” Why not just burn down the Reichstag and declare emergency powers? It worked once before.

  • "Why not just burn down the Reichstag and declare emergency powers? It worked once before."

    Brilliant!

  • Hopefully, the VA voters will "reset" Jim Moron back in his home district and his "title" will change to "former Representative Jim Moron" in 2012.

  • Jim-I don't want to sound mean, but did you go to College?

    Our currency is Fiat, and thus the value decreases when we print money. Print 3T to cover all the new mortgages, and the cost of gasoline for your government SUV will triple.

    Furthermore, the world will see us as morons, and once and for all stop buying our debt, as they will know that John/Jane Q Public, won't pay their gubment mortgage any better than the one to Chase. So there will be 3T of new money printed that the G is just flushing down the toilet.

    Further to that, renters will bitch that Uncle Sam bought the other guys houses for them-and they will need a rent bail out-or a car loan bail out.

    You see Jim, it is my opinion you are either a Marxist-and that's what you want to happen(an obamabot), or you are so effing stupid that you should be sent back to your McDonalds fry cook position before you embarrass your family and the Virginia voters who are obviously mortified by such stupid shit being spewed by a freaking Congressman!

    Read Jim-I suggest some Art Laffer-and learn just what makes our economy tick. Its not free shit. Its WORK. Its respect for those who do work-and the competition that comes from watching others work hard and gain nice stuff! Its about having one's head not up one's ass.

    What a maroon.

    • But Saul told me that working for a living dosen't buy voters. I need to tell them that if they vote for me I'll make sure that their Adjustable Rate Mortgage that just reset will be covered. I'm also supposed to tell them that they need to have more kids to qualify for a larger credit.

      • True, a very well expressed explaination of the situation.
        Anyone thinks that "resetting" the economy will work has no idea what they're talking about.
