Friedman Look At You Own First

Columnist Thomas L.Friedman



  I occasionally do this on my Sunday special here at Conservative American go after on of the New York Times brain-dead liberal leftist columnists for a change. In this case he is Thomas L.Friedman his piece of so called honest journalism is "We Need a Second Party" an alleged look into the state of the Republican Party.
 He begins his tirade "WATCHING the Republican Party struggling to agree on a presidential candidate, one wonders whether the G.O.P. shouldn’t just sit this election out — just give 2012 a pass.You know how in Scrabble sometimes you look at your seven letters and you’ve got only vowels that spell nothing? What do you do? You go back to the pile. You throw your letters back and hope to pick up better ones to work with. That’s what Republican primary voters seem to be doing. They just keep going back to the pile but still coming up with only vowels that spell nothing."
 Excuse me Mr.Friedman I hate to interrupt you little dream world but Newt Gingrich or Rick Santorum would do a better job than you Communist buddy in the White House you wish that no one would run against Obama.Nice comparison to of all things the game of Scrabble please wake up.
 He continues on "The party has let itself become the captive of conflicting ideological bases: anti-abortion advocates, anti-immigration activists, social conservatives worried about the sanctity of marriage, libertarians who want to shrink government, and anti-tax advocates who want to drown government in a bathtub.

Sorry, but you can’t address the great challenges America faces today with that incoherent mix of hardened positions. I’ve argued that maybe we need a third party to break open our political system. But that’s a long shot. What we definitely and urgently need is a second party — a coherent Republican opposition that is offering constructive conservative proposals on the key issues and is ready for strategic compromises to advance its interests and those of the country."

 This is where he is so dead wrong speaking of conflicting ideological bases the fathest of you leftist idiots believe in science fiction a.k.a Climate change oh wait I'm sorry or is it Global Warming or tell me now is there another cover up name to give to cover your sorry ass.Yeah you want a third party so Obama can split the vote hello Tommy boy we were not born last night,

 It seems that Tommy-boy has the solutions to three of our major problems supposedly plaguing our great nation and has the solutions well lets hear it lefty "When I look at America’s three greatest challenges today, I don’t see the Republican candidates offering realistic answers to any of them.

                       1.)The first is responding to the challenges and opportunities of an era in which globalization and the information technology revolution have dramatically intensified, creating a hyperconnected world. This is a world in which education, innovation and talent will be rewarded more than ever.

                      2.)The second of our great long-term challenges are our huge debt and entitlement obligations. They can’t be fixed without raising and reforming taxes and trimming entitlements and defense. We absolutely cannot just cut entitlements.

                     3.)Our third great challenge is how we power our future — without dangerously polluting and warming the earth — as the global population grows from 7 billion to 9 billion people by 2050, and more and more of them want to drive, eat and live like Americans. Two billion more people who want to live like us? We can’t drill our way out of that challenge, which is why energy efficiency and clean power will be the next great global industry.

 I love it three liberal more big governement left wing solutions to the problems that they created.I will examine 1.)here is the typical liberal answer to the problem education and so called talent what in todays public schools where the teachers unions care more about using our future as political pawns our kids and the kids are rock dumb oh yeah just keep on throwing more of our tax $$$ and teach them the children to keep feeling good about themselves yeah right.

2.)Another liberal solution to a problem in which they themselves created a great example the entitlement system/spending yeah so much for the Great Society under President Johnson way way back in 1964 a great leftist socialist experiment that was wasted tax dollars as we conservatives coin the phrase "The REDISTRIBUTION OF WEALTH" wasted tax $$$ going to those on welfare and other lazy layabouts who can't get off of their asses to get a life and a job at the same time.Tommy boy's solution keep raising taxes the good old liberal solution then he says "We absolutely cannot just cut entitlements" yes we can and we should get rid of them all together.

3.)In this one he covers as I said earlier in this piece global warming/climate change and ILLEGAL immigration all in this last part.Please Tommy boy spare me more innovations in how we Americans use power clean energy yeah that will kill whats is left of our economy that Obama and the rest of your gang of thugs havenot yet destroyed.

 Just more brain dead leftist liberal ideas to the problems that once again they created in all of our great American institutions.

NYT Columnist Freak Show In His Own Little World On US President

                                                   

                                                                                                                              Thomas L. Friedman

      
A Washington Post-ABC News poll released Friday found that two-thirds of Americans would consider voting for a third-party presidential candidate, while 48 percent wanted a third party in the race. Now what does that tell you?
It tells you that with the campaign about to go into full swing, as the president delivers his State of the Union address tonight, voters are still casting about for a leader with a winning message. I can save both parties a lot of money. I am one of those voters, and I can tell you exactly for whom I want to vote -- and I don't think I'm alone.
I want to vote for a candidate who advocates an immediate investment in infrastructure that will create jobs and upgrade America for the 21st century -- ultrafast bandwidth, highways, airports, public schools, mass transit -- and combines that with a long-term plan to fix our fiscal imbalances at the real scale of the problem, a plan that could be phased in as the economy recovers.
On the latter point, I am talking about the Bowles-Simpson bipartisan deficit reduction plan -- or something equally serious and with a chance of bipartisan support. President Barack Obama has proposed smart infrastructure investments, but he has not paired them with a credible long-term deficit-reduction plan, and the only chance of passage in Congress is to have both. Mitt Romney is not even close.
Christina Romer, the former chairwoman of Obama's Council of Economic Advisers, put it best when she told The New York Times Dec. 31 that the U.S. "faces two daunting economic problems: an unsustainable long-run budget deficit and persistent high unemployment. ... Over the next 20 to 30 years, rising health care costs and the retirement of the baby boomers are projected to cause deficits that make the current one look puny. At the rate we're going, the United States would almost surely default on its debt one day. ... We already have a blueprint for a bipartisan solution. The Bowles-Simpson commission hashed out a sensible plan of spending cuts, entitlement program reforms and revenue increases that would shave $4 trillion off the deficit over the next decade. It shares the pain of needed deficit reduction, while protecting the most vulnerable and maintaining investments in our future productivity.
"But we can't focus on the deficit alone," added Ms. Romer. "Persistent unemployment is destroying the lives and wasting the talents of more than 13 million Americans. Pairing additional strong stimulus with a plan to reduce the deficit would likely pack a particularly powerful punch for confidence and spending."
Second, I want to vote for a candidate committed to reforming taxes, and cutting spending, in a fair way. The rich must pay more, but everyone has to pay something. We are all in this together.
Third, I want to vote for a candidate who has an inspirational vision, not just a plan to balance the budget. People will sacrifice to make this country great again if they think you have a real plan for American success in the 21st century. And that plan is obvious.
We're not going to be about launching one big moon shot anymore. We need to be building a country where everyone in the world wants to come to launch their own moon shot -- their own company, their own startup -- because we have the best immigration policies, regulations, schools and incentives. We can't tax or cut our way to prosperity and jobs. We have to invent our way there. We need both more "Made in America" and "Imagined in America."
Finally, I want to vote for a candidate who supports a minimum floor of public financing of presidential, Senate and House campaigns. Money in politics is out of control today. Our Congress has become a forum for legalized bribery. Americans are losing faith in the instruments of government because they think the game is rigged by big money -- and they're right.
Any candidate with that four-part agenda would win -- and so would the country, because he would win with a mandate to do what needs doing.
"The people are so far ahead of the politicians," says the Democratic pollster Stan Greenberg. His polling, he adds, shows that many Americans today "think that China, Germany and Brazil have strategies for success, and that we don't. But they are looking for that. They are looking for a leader who will be really bold."
People have been misled by months of crazy GOP debates that make the country look so much more divided, small-minded and unwilling to sacrifice to fix our problems than it actually is. That's why I'd bet anything that the first candidate who steps out of the cartoonish politics of destruction -- "Romney is just a capitalist vulture. Obama is a Kenyan socialist" -- and shocks the public by going radically responsible, radically honest, radically demanding and radically aspirational, along the lines above, will be our next president.
I hope it is Mr. Obama, because I agree with him on so many other issues. But if it's Mr. Romney, he'd deserve to win. And, if by some miracle, both run that campaign, and the 2012 contest is about two such competing visions, then put every dollar you own in the U.S. stock market. It will go up a gazillion points.

What is Friedman talking about his ideal President is in the White House right now a Socislist leftist

Friedman Confused On Mideast



Thomas L.Friedman

Not only is it an apparent problem with the editorial board at the New York Times it is a problem with their OPED columnists as well.They are both brain dead to the issues of the day in which they choose to comment on this is a common thread among those members of the establishment media and Democrat party.
 In this mornings NYT oped columnist Thomas L.Friedman gets it all wrong on the situation in the Middle East between Israel and the Palestinian Authority.
 His piece of dung this morning "What to Do With Lemons" begins with "While President Obama and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton have gotten a lot of things right on foreign policy, they’ve made quite a mess in Israeli-Palestinian relations, where they’ve alienated all sides and generated zero progress. They’ve been inconsistent — demanding a settlements freeze then backing down — unimaginative and politically wimpy. Then again, the actors they’ve had to work with were both lemons — a Palestinian government that was too divided to make any big decisions and an elusive right-wing Israeli government that was strong enough to make big decisions but had no will to do so."
  First of all come again that the Obama Administration has gotten alot of things right when it comes to foreign policy yeah ok where Mr.Friedman what the President apologizing for our greatness LMAO! on that one.Hamas are the ones who have caused the division in the PLO and as for blaming the right wing Government in Israel which is the LIKUD party (for those of you who didnt know that especially to you idiots out there on the left) this is to be expected out of an idiot like Friedman.
  Here is another problem "The Palestinian Authority, having lost faith in both Israel and the U.S., is pushing for the United Nations to recognize an independent Palestinian state, within the 1967 lines in the West Bank and Gaza."Thats funny this is what the Obama administration has been pushing as well.Thus giving our buddies Israel a screw job.
  Just by the view on this issue from Friedman he being a Jew obviously should be taking a pro-Israel approach to this issue.But let's not forget that he is a for one a New York Times Oped columnist and a liberal left wing supporter which is one in the same.
  To blame the pro-American/Democracy Government of Israel for stalling the so called peace process is a mockery of a great leader like Prime Minister Benjamin "Bibi" Netanyahu.
