Gee, did the right wingers just think up this stunning bit of calculation, or have you guys been secretly sending these messages to the Bush Administration for the last 8 years?

The great one the shiny one the one whose feet dont touch the ground when he walks . Or so the lib err alls would have us believe is going to put 600 000 more federal employees on the payroll. Do you suppose they will be like his choice for head of the treasury and not pay their taxes. Of course not they will be democrats.

Big business does these types of cuts all the time.

HAS nothing to do with right (wing as you call it) or the left.

but it has everything to do with the last 30 years and i think that has alot to do with your can't do nothing wrong partys.

there all for ME and *uck the people when they can.

and i love it when they smile at you when they vote there self a cost of living raise while they set in judgment and freely give away billions knowing the American people are aginist it.

if you really think that the last 8 years is the reason we are in this shape then (and i'm not taking up for the Bush or the Repub's)you have a short between your head and your keyboard.
regestered Indenpendet and *og *amn proud of it.

our law makers need to take there certificates off the wall. after all they have made enough money with them. they have noting in common with the working people.

JEFFRO

We are going to have government, Jeffro, one way or another. I doubt that you would believe it, but I don't have any particular love for political parties. But I am a pragmatic fellow - I don't think that there is any chance in hell of getting rid of them in my lifetime. So we might as well try to pick the folks that we think will cause us the least harm.

And yes, I absolutely do believe that the last 8 years are largely the reason that we are in the shape that we are in. The nearly total deregulation of the financial/banking industry - which used to have pretty good safeguards - put the corporations in charge of our economy and led directly to the deep recession and maybe depression that we are rapidly sinking into.

And Bush and Cheney's lack of respect for the Constitution and the Rule of Law have shoved us a lot closer to the line of becoming a police state.

We cannot stop corruption, Jeffro - nobody on this planet ever has been able to do that. But we have to try to slow it down, to limit it. And the way that you do that is by trying to select folks who seem the most likely to defend the Constitution and uphold the rule of law.
