The American Prospect has a nice summary of the modern GOP's agenda:

WOMEN AND CHILDREN LAST

House Republicans are pushing forward with their “shared sacrifice”
agenda. Today, they're asking newborns and low-income women to pitch in:
The House is expected to vote on a proposal to cut the Women, Infants
and Children program, which helps about 9 million mothers and their
young children, by 13 percent. The Center for Budget and Policy
Priorities estimates that up to 350,000 food-assistance recipients would
be cut off if the measure passes. At the same time, the House is also
debating a bill to increase the Pentagon’s budget by $17 billion -- even
though Defense already makes up more than 50 percent of discretionary
federal spending. Hey, maybe they’ll make their sacrifice next year.

Wow!
Shows the GOPs priorties... shootin'& killin' over life.


It ws true with the democrats, hell, they had 2 years of senate,
congress and administrative control and did not cut.

Real problem is government is too damned big for out own good. Goes for
Canada and the US.

We are in fact like Nazi, but driven by delinquent debt Can't pay or
bills or take care of our people but no shortage of munitions to bomb
the hell out of a debt free country with $144 tons of gold on hand.
They have so much gold as they don't trust USD any more. (Libya). And
yes, NATO has murdered children in there homes in this event while Obama
supports rebels using children as shields on the tanks.

India and China too, ordering gold by the 100's of tons to replace USD.

Our governments have become far too big for our own good. Just like the
socialist parties of Germany evolving to Nazi. History repeats as we
approach WW III. The US-UN-Euro Regime!!! Heil Obama!!!
