Science has proven God exists...

In Obama's first two years his fellow Democrats controlled the house and Senate.

They didn't need Republicans to do shit.

They didn't even pass a budget.

"How the budget happens

The federal budget doesn’t get enacted the way other laws do. The process starts with the president submitting his budget request to Congress early in the year. That voluminous document is partly a presidential wish list, but it also gives Congress a framework.

"The ‘PresBud,’ as it is called, forms the basis of the fiscal year budget that starts the following October," according to this post from the nonpartisan Taxpayers for Common Sense.

In Congress, the House and Senate have budget committees tasked with creating concurrent budget resolutions, using the president’s budget as a guide. As Taxpayers for Common Sense wrote, "The legislation they draft is for Congressional use only: it doesn't go to the President, it isn't law, it just helps Congress keep its budgetary ducks in a row."

So there is the first problem with Romney’s statement. The president doesn’t "pass" a budget. That’s Congress’ job.

In Obama’s case, he has submitted his budget request each year he has been in office."

I'm not a liberal btw. Both parties are the same thing to me with a different voter base.

Science has confirmed that racism and cognitive function are negatively correlated.

If you say it enough someone just might listen.

Don't worry hun, of course it is false, science hasn't proved anything like that. To prove that hypothesis as true, you would have to find that as a person got more and more bigoted and racist, he would get dumber and dumber.

What the study really finds is that stupid people are more likely to be racists, because ignorance is strong in the dumb. This is common sense wrapped up and presented as a study which I am sure was funded by taxpayer dollars to tell us this. They just reword it and present it as new evidence.

Wrong again.

we found that lower general intelligence in childhood predicts greater racism in adulthood, and this effect was largely mediated via conservative ideology

 

[NoDrama]

Wrong again.

Ahhh really? I'm glad you are the final arbiter of what is wrong and right.
Oh wait, you aren't.

You made a claim as to what was in the study and that claim was incorrect.

 

[NoDrama]

You made a claim as to what was in the study and that claim was incorrect.

So the study proves that as you get more and more racist you get dumber and dumber? No it doesn't.
Unless it can prove that as true, then there can be no negative correlation as correlation needs more than one data set.

You seem really butt hurt about the confirmed scientific findings.

Not at all, but you seem pretty butt hurt that I can destroy your arguments in 2 sentences. That much is pretty apparent.

 

[abandonconflict]

I have two words for you.

PEER REVIEWED

You destroyed nothing. If the data were insufficient, the study would not have made it through peer review.

The findings of the study clearly bother you.

By the way,


Science has confirmed that racism and cognitive function are negatively correlated.

 

[NoDrama]

The evidence is based on 1254 community college students and 1600 foreign students seeking entry to United States' universities.

Basically 2854 18-20 year olds.
All community college ( where certainly the smartest kids go) or foreigners.

You don't see any problems do you?

No.

And neither did the peer review process. You seem butt hurt.

That's a cop out.

Good presidents are great leaders who inspire congress to do things.

I know the budget is something congress does, but it's the president's job go get congress moving.

You must be racist.

You think I'm racist...

That must be why you follow me around like a stray puppy.

Peer review mainly cheeks to see if the method is ethical, if the results are repeatable, and if their sample size was sufficient.

A little detail about community college and foreigners wouldn't necessarily mean bad reviews from peers.
