In claiming that the left exploits women, labor, and 'negroes', he manages to insult women, labor, and blacks.<BR/><BR/>BTW, when people from NYC move to Florida, they move to Dade County - a democratic county. They don't give a shit about republican values, they're old and winter sucks when you're old. They move for the weather.<BR/><BR/>Nice job, dumbass.Wiscohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12013881728915462943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25168606.post-1150341871280779682006-06-14T22:24:00.000-05:002006-06-14T22:24:00.000-05:00Pissed off at the supposed exploitation of "values...Pissed off at the supposed exploitation of "values voters?" Your own party has been exploiting Negroes with a vision of Klanmerica and the just plain "dumbth" of women for 60 years. And don't forget the labor unions. <BR/><BR/>"You're" out of power because victicrat ideas suck, they don't work. Why do you think 1000 people move to Florida EACH DAY? For low taxes and to escape the socialism of the North. <BR/><BR/>The "War on Poverty" is a fecking flop. Trillions spent and all we get for our money is MORE poor, the idiots can't stop breeding and we can't (temporarily) sterilize them until they prove themselves responsible.<BR/><BR/>Republicans, as diluted as they are by this current crop of hypocrites, are still better than voting for a Junk Kerry or Hilarity Clinton.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25168606.post-1149926351266785342006-06-10T02:59:00.000-05:002006-06-10T02:59:00.000-05:00"I didn't agree with the tax cuts, but of course ..."I didn't agree with the tax cuts, but of course the tax cuts went to the wealthy - they're the only ones in this country who pay federal income tax" <BR/><BR/>Excuse me????<BR/>Federal tax, State Tax, Local Tax, Fee's etc, its all tax money.<BR/>I am sick and tired of 8% of my salary going to Social Security...thats a tax if i ever heard of one. What about all those DMV fee's we pay? A third of my salary goes to the government...how can you say I (lower-middle class guy) dont pay tax's????<BR/>If Republicans are so "anti-tax" why dont they just abolish all tax's???<BR/>Thats a great idea we should get a Dem who says "dont like tax's? we will eliminate 'em".<BR/>Then when he gets in office he does eliminate 'em...and now the Republicans just got Gay Marriage and Abortion left.<BR/>At least get rid of Social Security...toss those lazy old people on the street if they dont want to work...I want my 8% raise. Old people wont have homes...they will have to sell...prices will drop 'cuse excess inventory..young people can now afford homes more easily. Tired of giving my salary to a bunch of bums..get a job or go back to where you came from.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25168606.post-1149925802566654572006-06-10T02:50:00.000-05:002006-06-10T02:50:00.000-05:00Great idea, its about time a liberal got some ball...Great idea, its about time a liberal got some balls. Im a ex-liberal; now im a hardcore NeoConservative. Main reason im not a liberal is because i was tired of all those wimps.<BR/>Remember the Radical Right didnt get in power overnight...it took them 30 years!!! The Right has staying power...all the liberals got to do is stick with their message. Problem with liberals is they are too busy trying to live a life..all you need are a liberal version of Karl Rove and Tom "Hammer" Delay. Have a few guys dedicated to kicking ass. Not afraid to fight and win or afraid to fight and lose. I think Howard Dean head of the Dems is probably a genius and is trying to lose this November and see how bad the Rep's can ruin our country then for decades lots and lots and lots of people will never vote Republican again (kind of like now; many Blacks and Immigrants vote straight Dem; and many new Cathlic Immigrants (Philipines; Lebanese, Latinos) vote straight Rep). Ill become a liberal again when they start fighting and I bet a lot of other Americans will also. Dems should egg the Rep's on by having them eliminate Social Security, Medicare, Medicad, pensions for government employees, invade Somalia, invade Sudan, North Korea, Iran. Sure itll suck for a few years but the Dems will have 100% power for at least 40 years.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25168606.post-1149924460448694582006-06-10T02:27:00.000-05:002006-06-10T02:27:00.000-05:00Your argument is logical.

By their standards, almost any Rep is godlier than almost any Dem, and I can't see that changing.<BR/><BR/>What should they do? Listen to your flawed argument, run a third party candidate and lose to the Dems?

When I used to bother arguing with rightwingers I would ask them how they couldn't see that they were being played by the Republicans. They really couldn't see it, though, and would insist that George W. Bush was a Godly man. Gimme a break! Talk about believing what you want to believe!<BR/><BR/>Now, maybe some people are getting the idea.Patriciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01044265862232128796noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25168606.post-1149876858923829272006-06-09T13:14:00.000-05:002006-06-09T13:14:00.000-05:00And frankly, I've never met a Republican who was i...<I>And frankly, I've never met a Republican who was in favor of giving money to the rich and leaving the poor poorer... but then, my friends are among the lower class.</I><BR/><BR/>Are you kidding?!?!?

Take a look at tax policy. Setting aside the topweighted tax cut schemes, what do you think social security reform was all about? It sure wasn't about the 'crisis' in SS, because it didn't do anything to address it - in fact, it would've made things worse by taking money <I>out</I> of the fund and giving it to Wall Street.<BR/><BR/>Anyone who thinks the GOP isn't the party of wealth just hasn't been paying attention.Wiscohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12013881728915462943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25168606.post-1149874170002207112006-06-09T12:29:00.000-05:002006-06-09T12:29:00.000-05:00It's amusing that your solution to the situation i...It's amusing that your solution to the situation is to ignore the values voters, when it could have been, just as easily, to find candidates who believe as the values voters do and get them elected.<BR/><BR/>If, as you claim, Bush got in because of his claims of compatibility with the values voters, then let the Democrats come up with a candidate of like values and run them - that would be an interesting political experiment. Two candidates with truly equivalent stands on the values issues. They can have differing views on the "unimportant" issues like economy, etc. if those are unimportant to the voters.<BR/><BR/>And frankly, I've never met a Republican who was in favor of giving money to the rich and leaving the poor poorer... but then, my friends are among the lower class.Larry W.
