Quote from hughb:

Agreed, the govt has done more than just a few things to help us build an infrastucture conducive to success in the private sector. He still shouldn't be admonishing business owners about it though, because it's a continuous loop. Business and government need each other, and if Obama is going to admonish business owners like they are petulant children he needs to get flushed on election day.

According to the World Bank survey, the USA is the fourth friendliest place in the world to do business. You could have used Haiti, ranked dead last, to make your point even clearer.



Actually Suriname (694 days!!!) is dead last.

Yes, I hadn't clicked on your link prior to my post, I was referring to a different World Bank survey.

From FOX News, that Liberal crazy network.

"2. Deceiving
On the other hand, to anyone paying the slightest bit of attention to facts, Ryan’s speech was an apparent attempt to set the world record for the greatest number of blatant lies and misrepresentations slipped into a single political speech. On this measure, while it was Romney who ran the Olympics, Ryan earned the gold."

You do realize that it was an opinion article from a Liberal contributor at Fox News?

It is "deceiving" to attempt to validate an article's contents by suggesting that the author is a conservative simply because she works for Fox News. Alan Combs works at Fox also, does that mean that he is conservative, and his critiques of Ryan or Romney should therefore carry more weight?

No deception on my part, and if you think that FOX doesn't filter everything they post, well, you know.

It was so bad, so very bad, that even their own Network had to allow this make it to the media outlets.
