Context is everything my potty mouth friend. The rest of the postings on 
the thread had to do with tax cuts. The lines above it were about tax 
cuts.

"Jackass" is "potty mouth"? You're such a delicate flower I wonder how

The context in which we were speaking was *Income Tax*, period.

Only a nit-picker or an idiot would have thought otherwise, Councilor.

You wrote "NO taxes," without qualification. You did _not_ write no 
income taxes." It's typical wingnut propaganda - you want people to

when called on your bullshit.

I also pay local, state and federal income tax on money taken out of my 
paycheck to pay for Social Security and Medicare.

It was supposed to have made sense when Bob Dole and a buncha other 
Republicans proposed taxing such dividends at the same rate as ordinary 
income under the notion that "income is income..."  It doesn't now?

See my above post. Bush tax cuts stimulated the US Economy until the Dems
took over Congress in 2006 and Executive office two years later. Tell me,
what has happen since?

OMG, ROTFLMAO!  Good grief, George, did you even read what you wrote 
before you hit "send."  LOL!!!!!!!  Are you even connected to the same 
reality as the rest of the world?

Lest you forget, the recession started while Bush was in office.  There 
were in fact two recessions while Bush was in office.  Because the 
Republican economic model is a failure.

Well, my "reality" consists of $5 - going on $6/gal gasoline, almost 9%
unemployment from those who still bother to report it, a debt accumulated in
three years equal to all of the previous 43 administrations before the
current Resident, a healthcare system that 52% of the voters disapprove.

 I could go on, but we all know that it is Bush's Fault, right?

Oh wait. We have a guy in charge of Energy that wants us to pay as much as
$9/gallon, he was caught saying, and gives himself an "A"...

<http://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2012/03/energy-secretary-chu-gives-himself-

That's not reality, not at the present, and probably not in the future.

In October 2006, unemployment was 4.4%; it steadily rose to 10% in October, 
2009.  Except for the last nine months of that 36-month period, that was 
under Bush's administration, and his policies.  From October 2009 to to Feb 
2012, it dropped to 8.3%.

> A misguided (to be kind) Homeland Security director who says Veterans 
> could be potential terrorists.

Yup, some veterans could be terrorists; in fact, some were.  E.g., McVeigh.  
Point is that veterans have the military training, so any veterans who 
become terrorists have potential to be more effective at it than 
nonveterans.

Tell that to people in Florida.

"According to GasBuddy.com, motorists are shelling out $5.89 for a gallon of
regular gas at a Shell station in Lake Buena Vista, topping out at $5.99 a
gallon for premium. It doesn¹t get better at a Suncoast Energy station in
Orlando, where drivers are paying $5.79 for a gallon of regular."

You didn't read what I wrote: "Those that still bother to report".
One of many reports found with a simple Google search...

<http://preview.tinyurl.com/6n9ew6z>

Besides, in recent elections since '76 only Ronald Maximus was the only
sitting president to win a second term with the unemployment rate over SEVEN
PERCENT. With your Resident's views on killing Energy Jobs (talking
Petroleum and Natural gas here - not bankrupt outfits) like the pipeline
from Canada (estimated ~25,000 jobs), he ain't heading the right direction.

I guess you could call Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan a "Veteran". Too bad Janet N.
doesn't see it that way because it might "offend" some folks' religion to
call it anything else but a Muslim attack on America, not those who have
served well, and whose benefits the current Administration wants to cut.
Like someone we both might know...

But just keep defending him, like a good little liberal. We aren't going to
convince either to think the other's way after a lifetime.

At least we are in communication, not the condemnation we see at the fringes
of both sides. Over and out.

Nope; he was on active duty.  Besides, a one-person killing spree is not 
exactly terrorism.

Keep on attacking him, like a good little conservative.

According to Gasbuddy.com that station still charges $5.89 today.  Also
according to Gasbuddy, it's surrounded by stations charging $3.89, so we
can assume there's something "special" about that station that allows
them to charge 50% more than their competitors- closest to an
airport/rental car return, only station on a resort property (Disney,
perhaps?), etc.

Price gouging and opportunism isn't a democratic or republican issue. 
Unless you think that $7 beer and $5 hot dog at the football stadium is
also somehow Obama's fault?

I've read about stations that do that; they artificially raise their gas 
prices to dissuade people from filling up there because their business is 
actually auto repair, but they need to have gas pumps in order to keep 
their license.  Apparently that's not the case with this station, though.  
They're just gouging unwary motorists.  Here are some articles about it:

<http://gdol.com/xp>
<http://www.worldgolf.com/blogs/brandon.tucker/2011/08/03/orlando-gas-statio
n-tourist-trap-airport>


The gas stations on Disney property, by the way, are Hess stations and they 
usually have the lowest prices in the area.

It's more of a business var renter trap.

Vacationers usually have time to scout for a station.

Businessmen usually leave a meeting knowing there is gas near the 
airport car return and they don't care what the price is, it goes on the 
expense account.

If I have time to get to the airport, I'll gas up a few km away if I 
can.  But 7 times out of 10 it's an area I don't know well enough or 
more likely I'll be the last guy to board.  Again.

Straight after college I worked on the fuel pumps at a garage with 
highish prices.  It's primary business was as a main dealer rather than 
selling fuel.  It did however offer accounts for fuel, so various 
businesses used it for that facility, in particular one company with a 
fleet of salesmen driving company cars.

At a time when most places were changing to self service, some folks 
liked having someone who would check their tyres, water etc. so were 
willing to pay the premium.  It was more of the order of 10-15% higher 
than the cheapest, nothing like as high as the above example.

Might depend on where he lives.  It's $3.65 a gallon here today.  Dunno 
about other parts of the US.

Which, let's face it, is not exactly a spectacular recovery.  Of course 
the Republicans have pulled out all the stops to prevent a recovery and 
to further undermine the middle class...

Considering the Republican efforts to prevent a recovery, I'm surprised 
that we've had any at all.

The problem with USA style of government is that the opposition party
works to prevent the party in power from governing and this results in
half assed programmes that might have worked if allowed to be
implemented fully, but because of all the compromises, are worthless and
 often end up worse.

On the other hand, it can limit the damage of some really bad programs.
