        For you, a glass belly button. You have earned it.
        You had a super-majority from 2009 to 2011. Therefore, you had a perfect chance. You still didn't. Nice try.

          pretty sure he was kind of busy cleaning up GWB's economic disaster and taking on healthcare his first couple years. Of course, he would then get cock blocked on everything the following 6 years...

                2000-2010 was a disaster for more than the middle class. It was a disaster for just about everyone on earth save the plutocrats.

                  In the first two years of Pres. Obama's first term he had a friendly Congress, but the only political thing he could consider a positive accomplish worthy of note was the PPACA, which had to be backdoored during a lame duck session as the Democrats were being ushered out the door following the 2010 election.
                  Highlighted the answer for you. The biggest enemy to the Dems is the GOP only slightly ahead of their fellow Democrats

                    Depending on how you define middle class, it was a disaster if you lost your job and either didn't find another one or had to take a massive cut in pay. Lets be honest here, if you kept your job, you made out like a bandit because interest rates got so low you refinanced your mortgage at the lowest rates in living memory. Everything was cheaper from vacations to the people you hired to work on your house. Yes, you had to deal with the stress of potentially losing your job but that's a far cry from actually getting turfed.

                    Regarding Trumpian damage, I'd say as long as he doesn't start a decades long war we should be able to survive. Big, BIG priority if his administration becomes the disaster that we think it will is seizing back the House in the off year election. Senate map is too difficult this time around. If people lose their healthcare however in the meantime too F'in bad. That what you get for voting Republican (or not voting at all).
                    This is 100% true.

                    I bought my house at the lowest price it has ever been and then I refinanced with a 15-year at 2.75%. I also dumped a ton of money into the markets at the bottom because I could afford to. I made out like a bandit.

                    I think you're right about the war piece. But I'd argue that if other countries start strategically positioning themselves for renewal energy tech development, that's hundreds of billions of dollars, probably trillions of dollars we lose out on. All for a couple billion today in coal and oil.

                          I have personally heard this racist, homophobic clown say Hillary would destroy this country over the POSSIBILITY she did exactly what he was found to have done. And he didnt do it with a private email server...he just told allies what agencies like the CIA were doing in Afghanistan.

                          I await our fellow posters who ripped Hillary to shreds all year (you know who you are) ****ing posts about this evil man!

                                You should read a lot more Mencken if that's what you think he's about. And not the political stuff, which was just throwaway lines. The deep, hard stuff -- the literary criticism. There is a great mind at work there.

                                He had no love for yokelism, but yokelism is like any mass adjective -- it's a projection from a distance onto an undifferentiated group. When Mencken talks abut individuals his perception is sharp, and his sympathy with what is good in all men is profound. He hated the laziness of the public, but in the sense of its "public-ness." He hated the growing menace of the Mass Man in media, religion, politics and most of all in art.

                                Menken's enemy isn't this "common man" or that -- it's The Common Man -- that totem that tyrants and tea-totalers erect to magnify themselves. My God what he would have made of Trump.
                                He was a complicated man, and I certainly don't expect people to take my one sentence about one aspect of his belief system and think that adequately summarized the man as a whole. That is far beyond my capabilities, especially with someone as interesting and diverse as Mencken. But the guy had some unsavory aspects to him, including racists beliefs that we either have to recognize or just chalk them up to "them was the times."

                                I guess my sentence was more of a jab at what I think is an unfortunate development not only in these political threads, but in social media in general, which is the disdain shown for segments of our public that may not be as well educated, who may be more rural or may have a more simplistic belief system. Mencken satired these people and lamented the roadblock they posed to good, qualified people in leadership positions. But I think we've moved beyond that to just plain mean-spiritedness and contempt.
                                That community is already in the process of dissolution where each man begins to eye his neighbor as a possible enemy, where non-conformity with the accepted creed, political as well as religious, is a mark of disaffection; where denunciation, without specification or backing, takes the place of evidence; where orthodoxy chokes freedom of dissent; where faith in the eventual supremacy of reason has become so timid that we dare not enter our convictions in the open lists, to win or lose.
