I am assuming its an act of partisanship

Again you assume incorrectly. It might be better if you don't try to guess my motivations because you are so bad at it.


Actually, I think I am dead on right. Your bias has become much more pronounced the past few weeks.

In structuring the loan, we could have made it as benign as we wanted.........the terms could have been generous and not onerous. The point would be that one day we would get paid back

A lot of our loans to third world countries never do get paid back. Plus since some of the money is going to repair things that we destroyed it might be reasonable for the money to be grants. But I wouldn't be opposed to the next round of aid being partially or even largely loans with generous terms.


What was wrong with doing it this round?

What does it matter? You, like the rest of the conservatives on this thread, will make believe its not true and deny that it happened.

So I take it that you can't mention one time that they where slashed and burned. That is not surprising because federal spending on social programs have grown pretty much continuously since the New Deal, perhaps even before that.


Why should I waste my time pointing out something when it gets denied one way or another. I could show pictures that the sky is blue and you would still find a way to call the color green. DR had been the worst culprit on this thread for that kind of BS but you are catching up quickly.
