Fighting Terror? (Remember that ol’ thing?)
Fixing Iraq? (Remember who screwed that up?)
Congressional Oversight into war profiterring? or how bout just
Congressional Oversight?
Economic growth that “people” feel?
Science?
Balancing the Budget? (again)
Separation of church and state? (thanks Thomas Jefferson)
Not outing covert agents?
Hiring people with relevant experience for jobs like FEMA?
Checks and balances?
Alternative Fuels?
Cleaner Enviroment?
No forced abortions on Marianas?
The middle class?
The lower class?
Anybody not a part of top 1%?
Oh, the top 1% too.

it goes on and on and on and on.

a little different than the RNC:
manipulate voters on fake social issues and fear in order to stuff pockets and friends pockets (or in Iraq, bags) with tons of cash.

Yeah let’s get all the extra money we can for the underprivileged sector. We should spend millions and millions trying to figure out how to accomodate and help the lower class and illegal aliens. Yes true democracy at it’s best!

Life is not fair my clover clad friend.

Funny - the left invented the fear mongering tactics and they failed. it could never be that the country has made a right hand turn while the dems were busy writing hot checks at the House Bank, and at the same time taxing and spending themselves out of office.

FYI - you have to stand for more than being against everything if you want to win again.

It’s pretty sad when the current state of the Republican party is still the lesser of two evils.

Rainjack…johnny looks a little chunky there.

Johnny Bravo has been promoted to VP of operations at rainjack, LLC . Taking his place is a still from the shooting range scene in Super Troopers.

Gee, the right says no agenda, then you remind them of your (extensive)agenda and they attack agenda, yawn… it’s like everyday with Hannity.

Meanwhile their agenda remains unchanged:LIE TO VOTERS.

You have no agenda that isn’t a reaction to the right’s actions.

I guess the Dem’s would be the ones to defer to when talkng about lies. You guys have made careers of the practice.

But just for shits and giggles - name some of the ‘lies’ the republicans were advancing in 2004.

Education is also high on our agenda, as well as reforming the completely broken health care system.

Headhunters (note possessive} agenda:
“I are a teecher, so you must be rong.”

“New Orleans only exists to suck up my tax moneys, I are mad.”

Name a single democratic education reform measure. Any one. I’ll wait…

You can’t do it. Democrats don’t want education reform, because they know that as soon as minorities are as educated as the “man”, they’ll all vote Republican, too.

That was one truly ignorant statement. It implies that democrats are only democrats as long as they aren’t educated or doing well financially. It also implies that republicans are better educated and all financially more well off than democrats. Do you make more money than all democrats? Are you sure? Are you more educated? Really? You earn the award for dumbest post of the year. Congrats.

Democrats tend to give more social aid, and are supposed to support a more even distribution of wealth. [/quote]

Who’s ‘wealth’? Who made this ‘wealth’ to be distributed? The janitor pushing a broom in a factory? The sales clerk at Wal-Mart? Hmmm…these people would probably starve in their hopeless ineptitude were it not for men (like Rainjack) who created places for these people to work. Do you propose to steal what they created, to give it to those who did NOT create it?

[quote]FightinIrish26 wrote:

But for more than 75 years, no Republican administration has cut the size of government. Since George W. Bush became president, government spending has risen nearly 25 percent.[/quote]

So, if Bush cuts the budget, he’s heartless and cruel. If he increases the budget, he’s careless and profligate? What wrong with this reasoning?

Let’s see: the Democratic Party was founded on the principle that owning slaves was an ‘alternative lifestyle’. The GOP evolved out of the Whigs, for the purpose of ending slavery. Good to know where our ROOTS (sorry, Alex Haley) are. But I digress…

THat’s quite an extensive list, 100meters. Where’d you get it – from Senator Byrd (D-West Virginia), former verified member of the KKK?

Hey, 57 (and you know what I mean)! Welcome! Now, are you planning to say something resembling intelligient dialogue (w/o quoting it from a book) or sit there daydreaming about Hillary Clinton?

No, I don’t actually - but I’m sure it’s pretty lame.

Speaking of lame: how long did it take after you read Ann Coulter’s column yesterday before you started this thread? Yeah, you’re an original thinker all right.

Tell you what, instead of posting your drivel why don’t you go get a second job so we’ll have more of your tax dollars to give to the welfare recipients in New Orleans?

And please, try not to bring up Hillary again. The mental picture of the cankles gives me a stiffy, and I hate trying to type with one hand!

The Democrats are LOOONG played out. The pendulum is going to swing back from the neocon rise, and is already starting to do so, but I’m not sure where it’s going to swing to.

We need a new party. We need a new polity.

You read Annie? Watch out, she’ll turn you, boy.

I’m a conservative. I don’t work for the benefit of others. Since you and your fellow libs think serving others is some sort of moral high ground, you should be taking your own advice – if you have a FIRST job.

Hey, wait one minute – if you read Annie Coulter, you’re a closet conservative. I knew it!! FightinIrish, give him the famous ‘shot to the throat’ ! :slight_smile:

MarkIQ57, you are a laugh riot!!

The right reacts to the left.
Did President Bush not react to President Clinton’s policies?

example:
Clinton:meetings on terrorism.
Bush: no meetings on terrorism-that’s something Clinton would do.

Clinton: balance budget
Bush: stop balancing budget

Clinton: cut poverty
Bush: raise poverty

Clinton: get PDB on terrorists, shake the trees
Bush: get PDB on terrorists, have no meetings.

etc.

OK. Lies. Is this a lie?

Bush:
Secondly, there are such things as roving wiretaps. Now, by the way, any time you hear the United States government talking about wiretap, it requires – a wiretap requires a court order. Nothing has changed, by the way. When we’re talking about chasing down terrorists, we’re talking about getting a court order before we do so.

That’s Bush LYING to sheepish voters in a campaign speech in Buffalo April 20, 2004.
