Call mine the Churchill strategy for the R's. Warn about the coming storm. Nobody listens. The storm hits. People finally listen. Lead them through the storm you warned them against. Become a legend.
I dont give a crap about the R's. I want whats best for the country and that ain't it. that's why I said we need a new party.
U*NC is the cleanest most honest athletic program on the planet. I am jealous of their deserved success, and I'm a mewling cunt.

No fucking shit. Anybody who would consider that a "good" scenario is fucked up beyond repair...

"Besides it was my understanding that the only way I cost the taxpayers anything was if I went into default, so the only chance of that was death."

Oh, you mean like the only way the bail-outs to the auto/banking/insurance/etc industries would cost anything to the taxpayers is if those recipients defaulted? But IIRC, you were (and presumably still are) vociferously against the government loaning money to various companies in those industries. I guess it's OK to loan money (totally unsecured) to you, but god forbid that anybody else get anything. What a fucking hypocrite you are. Frankly I don't even believe you're a doctor. I just can't believe that a real doctor could possibly be as manifestly stupid as you prove yourself to be nearly every time you post. Seriously, you are about as ignorant and self-deluded of a motherfucker as I've ever had the displeasure of coming across, anywhere...

"the only way I cost the taxpayers anything was if I went into default, so the only chance of that was death."

And arrogant, too. The ONLY way you could POSSIBLY default on your load was if you died?? You smug, arrogant asshole. I'm sure you really believe that, but you are so fucking arrogant and deluded that you truly believe that there is no way anything could ever befall you whereby you could not pay off tens of thousands of dollars that you do not have. Actually, you'd probably go suck dicks to raise the money to pay back your loans, and I applaud you for that. But I'm sure that's not what you meant when you said nothing but death could POSSIBLY make it such that you weren't able to pay your debts. You meant that by god you would FIND a way (short of cocksuckery) to pay that goddamn loan, b/c you are a responsible, hard-working creator who would NEVER need help "make it happen" (whatever "it" happens to be). Pull yourself up by your own bootstraps and all that. Good god, your entire existence is a cliche. You're not a man, you're a cartoon....

Who owned your loans before they were bought out by private banks?

I see your link is from Forbes and also says something about "sets another record". Here's another article from Forbes about another record being set. Man, the super wealthy just can't get a break, they're barely keeping their heads above water, what with this socialist, wealth-distributing regime Obama has single-handedly forced upon them...

"Forbes launched its definitive ranking of the nation’s superrich in 1982. Back then the price of admission into this most exclusive of clubs was a mere $75 million of net worth. Even after adjusting for inflation, this year’s entry fee ($1.1 billion) is roughly ten times what it was thirty years ago. There were just 13 billionaires at the time and the total worth of the 400 club was a mere $93 billion. Today the combined net worth of the 400 richest Americans is $1.7 trillion, up from $1.5 trillion a year ago. The average net worth of a Forbes 400 member is a staggering $4.2 billion, up from $3.8 billion, and the highest in at least a decade, as two-thirds of the individuals added to their fortunes in the past year. "

Funny.
During a press conference later, O'Mara was asked if he had any advice for Zimmerman, and he answered, "Pay me."

Fox is almost going it alone on this audio of Dear Leader clearly calling for the redistributiion of hard working people's money and resources to the malingerers and ne'er-do-wells. Just listen to it and see if it doesn't sound a whole lot like 'from each according to his abilities, to those according to their need (who sit on their kiester)'.

For the most part the 9:1 media appears to be giving this bombshell very little play.

I saw that clip of Obama from 15 years ago a bunch of times on various shows on MSNBC. The only "problem" with it is that it just isn't even remotely damning simply because Obama uttered the sinister "R" word, FoxNews commentators' assurances to the contrary notwithstanding...

Then again, the National Enquirer also is a news outlet.
