tax and spend drives the economy to zero,
reducing the ability to pay equally.
At least it's an honest approach.
No, it's really not.
Piling your debt onto your grandchildren is fundamentally dishonest.
It's a Ponzi scheme.
How does piling on more entitlements help "my grandchildren"?
When the economy turns down, the weenies simply spend more.
It doesn't seem to slow down the Borrow-and-spenders.
It does slow down the tax-n-spenders. At least there is an economy
left to *hope* to be able to pay the bills.
That doesn't make the Republicans. [NO CARRIER]
It's been mentioned here before that Progressives spend their terms
cleaning up the economic messes that NeoCons leave behind
--only to have the NEXT Republican screw it up again.

Hogwash. What about the economic and other messes
the progressives hero FDR made?
They're the granddaddy of all messes!
Yeah. That
getting-the-nation-through-the-Coolidge/Hoover-Great-Depression
thing was a real bad legacy. 8-|
Complete nonsense.
...though I'l concede that Social Security was a Ponzi scheme.
The Righties should just call their party what it is:
The Subsidize the Trans-Nationals and Send Jobs Overseas Party.
Funny. I didn't know Bill Clinton was a Republican.
...and George H.W. Bush said, "No new taxes".
Politics breeds policy aberations.
Silly statement. Even sillier to knuckle under to the DemonRATS and
go back on a silly statement.
Let me know when you see job growth under a Republican
even keep pace with population growth.
For the last 6 years there has been a lot of job growth.
"The Bush *job growth* record" is an oxymoron.
Only to a flaming weenie.
To repeat:
The rate of job creation hasn't even kept up with population growth.
Nonsense.
Yo, Jeff, Keith. Don't argue, post links to quality data.
Let 'im. He's the one that made the outrageous claims.
