Do you ever wonder why those people are angry Chuck? Those people are
sick and tired of what liberals and the so-called "enlightened" people are doing to this country. Starting with the whole "politically correct" movement, all the way through entitlement programs for the undeserving, the relentless demonization of the rich and successful, and the support of programs which promote one person's superficial attributes over another's, along with government expanding its role to intervene in more and more aspects of people's lives and lifestyles, while taking more and more money out of our pockets. Talk-radio is an outlet for people to vent those frustrations. You guys on the left should take heed. Your ideologies are not popular with the majority of Americans. It isn't supposed to be a popularity contest. Coupled with your comment about the number of listeners to conservative hate radio, just who appears to be pandering to the crowd here? "Support of programs that promote one person's superficial attributes over anothers?" Opposed to programs that supress the non-Anglo, non- Protestants with messages about how the country was founded on Christianity and all others should put up with it or "go home"? "The government expanding its role to intervene in more people's lives"? You wouldn't be referring to the current government, expanding at a record pace and at record expense, and justifying increasing intrusion into the private affairs of ordinary law abiding citizens as "security" measures, would you? "Taking more and more money out of your pocket" Dave, I wish I had something for sale that you wanted to buy. I'd make a fricking fortune and you'd be broke for the rest of your life. Here's why: Our national costs, just like our personal budget costs, are dictated by the amount of money we spend every month---- not by the amount of money we decide we're going to set aside to pay bills during any particular pay cycle. Everytime I see an ad for something being sold "No payments until 2006!" I think of our current fiscal management. There are a lot of rubes on the street who imagine that if there are no payments due until 2006, or what not, that it is the same as being free. This is going to break your heart, but the Bush Tax Cut Emperor is stark, raving, naked. Periodski. The current Congress is spending money at an unsustainable pace. We are piling up a huge debt. Meantime, we make everybody feel temporarily OK about it all by reducing the amount of taxes being collected. It's like the family that decides to ignore the pile of bills on payday, go on a weekend spending spree instead, and then fantasize that they are well off because of all the new stuff they just bought with additional credit. The big lie is that reducing taxes has reduced the cost of government. No, it temporarily reduced the apparent immediate price of government, but has not affected the actual cost of government which is as high or higher now, (with one party in charge), than it has ever been. The ballooning deficit will eventually take *more* money out of the average guy's pocket than the phoney tax cut put into it, by far. Bush has not vetoed even one cent of spending, as far as I know, in 3 and 1/2 years. Yes it's true that Congress writes the checks, but he has to sign them. You guys want to truly act conservative, rather than simply disguise yourselves as conservatives? CUT FEDERAL SPENDING Once you have done that, you can cut taxes. Until you do that, you're simply jerking off to a better grade of pornography- still nothing but self indulgent, phoney pretense. The current "conservative" government has failed in the primary expectation of a conservative administration; reduce the size of the government and associated expenses. |
