"During an ABC News discussion about the federal deficit, The Wall Street Journal's Kimberly Strassel argued that the 3 percent of small businesses that would be impacted by ending the Bush-era tax cuts for the richest Americans were actually the "most important and productive business generators in the country."
"Republicans talk about small businesses like you want them to think about mom-and-pops [shops]," Rep. Chris Van Hollen (D-MD) explained, adding that Republicans would classify Bain Capital -- the firm presumptive Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney founded -- as a small business.
"They would classify Mitt Romney's horse as a small business," Goolsbee interrupted.
"It's true!" Van Hollen agreed. "Hedge fund owners, Fortune 100 companies all come under this rubric of small business."
Earlier this month, Ann Romney’s dressage horse, Rafalca, competed in the 2012 London Olympics."

Is an interesting brainwashing site. It explains on narrow minds the liberals are. See this:
Occupy America (http://occupyamerica.crooksandliars.com/)
Bill Maher is their hero. Here is a statement about voter id issue that the liberals seem to want to protect so bad (as claimed in the report that it is a non-issue) It is funny, they claim it is a non-issue, then claim it is voter suppression.
I was glad to see him bring attention to the voter suppression tactics going on across the country, which are no laughing matter.

I'd guess that the horse is a business in every sense of the word.

And that horse has been more successful than Obongo in creating and maintaining private jobs and the economic push needed.

Mitt Romney personally provides jobs for more people than Obama has created on a national level.
Why do Democrats hate jobs?

Why do Democrats hate jobs?Most of them feel they're entitled to everything without working. :shrug:

Because they think that spending taxpayer's dollars to directly pay people - or pay their employers, such as a state government - thereby, essentially, hiring people as indirect federal employees - is creating jobs.
If Democrats can regard an unemployment check as a "paycheck", then they don't understand what creating a *job* is. Like their misunderstanding of companies as entities that pay money and provide benefits - while ignoring the essentials of a business like providing service or product for a price - they want to "create" jobs by taxing everything and paying them directly.
Economically, this is taking money from your left pocket and paying your right pocket. It doesn't create anything.

By now, is anyone convinced that Democrats have a firm understanding of what it takes to run a successful business?
I have to admit, it does make me chuckle a little to hear someone like van Hollen sneer and say "they'd call THAT" (an entity that employs dozens of people) a business - while at the same time failing to duplicate anything of the sort OTHER than simply giving money to people to work for the government.

So where in that nhboy wasteland devoid of content and coherency is anything that suggests that the above proposition is NOT the case?:coffee:

Sounds to me like his wifes horse does, and at least one of them is "shovel ready".
