Two quick things:

2) When you say "raise taxes", what do you mean? Tax rates? Tax collections? Would you believe that they aren't the same thing!?! Holy cow.
Well you are right the war is not our biggest expense, THE BUSH BAILOUT OF HIS BUDDIES IN THE BANKS IS!
And yes if you take in less than you spend SOMEDAY SOMEONE WILL HAVE TO PAY!

Great! So, you agree that our government should downsize and lower taxes so our country's wealth can increase, right?

No matter what your philosophy, you cant get there with cheaters, lawbreakers, liars, incompetents or losers...can you? You, apparently, think its not a big deal, however, your vote9s) set the world back a hundred years...
Lets hope the majority of Americans are smart enough to say no to a third term of GWB and all the low ball, incompetent stupidity that goes with it. I wish "three strikes you're out" was in place for criminal politicians and constitution rapers.

Remember, you'd be fired in an honest, free market reward system.

Totally agree. Unfortunately, it's in the nature of elected officials to lie, cheat and re-write laws (no need to break them...) to get what they want.

Unfortunately, people will vote for Coke or Pepsi. Not really that different from each other but presented as the "only" choices.

YOUR GOL DARN RIGHT I DO, I always want less government and lower taxes, but to get that people need to get off their ARSES and join the establishment and shake it up! If you look at how much we really are TAXED and it does not fall on one party it is really eye opening!!! Your taxed on your car, being able to drive it, to ride a motorcycle, have a pet, get married, purchase a service or product, own a home, sell a home, die in the home!!!! If we really cared we would have told both parties to F*&@ OFF!!!! Revolution

You operate on an assumption that I'm a Republican who voted for Bush. The only shit that's flying is what you're projecting. You see the world, and others, the way you choose to see them.

Just like 90% of the rest of us, only worse.

No actually my comments to gag are sorta the literary version of trying to "sink" the cigarette butt "ship" with a stream of piss........I actually pity him, as his jealousy is badly masked by his anger.

Far worse. His assumptions (like that I ever voted for Bush) send him completely down a road of fantasy and makes communicating with him totally pointless.

Cock he Mountin, You and the word 'literary" should not appear on the same page, ever. You are not a literate man. Your background is hate and fear. Wrap it up in guns, missiles, badges and brigades, you're a scared, pitiful boy. When you try to be literate and intellectual, you fail, horribly! Your Kazinski dialouge is rather boorish and your lack of comprehension of the little knowledge you process is predictable, hollow and wholly inaccurate!
You DO make me laugh tho.

I guess that makes us "even" then, you are amused by me, and I pity you and your spawn.
