Quote from Thunderdog:
I don't think that someone who voted for GWB twice should be pointing too many fingers or engaging in a debate about mental acuity.
And why would someone have been compelled to vote for Gore. Because him and Lieberman weren't neo-cons? Get off the kool-aid.
And why vote for Kerry/Edwards? Did they both not vote FOR Iraq. And are they both not scumbags besides? Kerry would have won the 2004 race going away if he wasn't a flip-flopping, duplicitous, throwing
someone else's medals over the fence reprobate.
Like most American homeowners my property has doubled during the past 8 years (even now-I was a triple 2 years ago) which dramatically increases my local property taxes but at the same time Bush at least gave me relief on taxes of my
earned income.
I lived in NYC for a year when Clinton was President. My salary was 10k a month. My net pay check was 49% of gross. That pay check of course didn't reflect the additional taxes one STILL pays in the form of sales taxes, excise taxes, utility taxes and God forbid-property taxes. Any one who believes that in a "free" society one should pay well over half their income in taxes is nothing more than a commie leach. But then that's the whole deal, eh? Liberals can bitch and whine about Iraq and Katrina and oil blah, blah but thats not really the basis of any tangible grievance on their part. What libs REALLY want-is the paycheck of working people. They want what ISN'T THEIR'S. At least the begger on the street gives thank's. Liberal cock sucking thieves will tell you we want more;you're not paying your FAIR SHARE.
I have a creed.
Since 80% of Jews vote Democrat, I'm a Republican.
Since 90% of ghetto blacks vote Democrat, I'm a Republican.
Because 80-90% of millionaire media and entertainment folks vote Democrat-I'm a Republican.
Because 80% of over paid on the public dole academics vote Dem, I am a Republican.
Because 70% of those who served their country vote Republican, I'm a Republican.
70% of working folks with children (irregardless of race) vote GOP. It is THEY who I stand with.
I'll say this again: For you and other folks on ET who do not
live in America who do not pay American taxes-who do not educate your kids in American schools, who do not live in America's social laboratory to persist in critiquing American's is no less unsavory than me weighing in on Iraqi politics
