After their loss in Iraq, the Dems will attack Bush with their favorite - Domestic issues. They have an infinate supply of these and can always create more.

Yup. And push for more socialism all the while. You gotta give the Dems credit, they're single minded in their pursuit of their evil agenda.

[Ff--150]

NEO-CONSERVATISM...doesn't that sound so-o-o-o much better than that mean old socialism word?? Doesn't hurt people's feelings, oh my...

Been saying for years and years and years and... that there is only ONE political party in the United States. Guess not going to wait around for the apologies...

Excellent article.

[PGalt]

Only more capitalism, not more socialism, will save us.

A good start would be to vote against the anti-freedom, anti-capitalist, democratic crime syndicate...the socialists undermining freedom and capitalism at every turn.

Great article.

[George W. Bush]

The socialism and social agenda of the Democrats appeal to an increasingly elderly voting base.

Young people are less susceptible to believing the leftist bile spewed by the media and Democrats and Lefty college professors.

The times are changing. The Democrats are in trouble. The real problem is that Republicans refuse to take action on the demographic shift and shovel the Democrats into an electoral grave. I guess they need a scapegoat as much as the 'Rats do.

Issue 101

Voting for the lesser of evils always begets evil. How can so many people thinking they're right be so wrong?

How is it that people and society in general have prospered and increased their well being for decades yet the politicians and bureaucrats say we must have another 3,000 laws and regulations each year on top of the 100,000+ laws already on the books... That without them people and society face "disaster". People and society have done quite well without next year's 3,000 new federal laws and regulations. Why all of a sudden can people and society not continue to do quite well without them? The fact is, they'd be better off without 99% of them.

So who really benefits from 3,000 new laws and regulations each year? -- not to mention state laws and regulations. Politicians and bureaucrats. They create boogieman problems and with a complicit media towing their boogieman problems cast a net of false fear and unwarranted despair in people.

Quite literally, they create problems where none exist. They're sick in that they chose to frighten people and foist false despair on them and do that to collect their unearned paychecks. Their job security is predicated on deceiving as many people as possible.

It cost more than just one and a half trillion dollars a year to fund government abuse. That abuse hinders people's development, especially children being indoctrinated rather than educated, harms the economy and causes boom and bust cycles in markets.

Fully integrated honesty is key. That we have the government we have, that has gone so far off course from the government the founders created, is a product of irrationality and dishonesty. Changing the laws via the "system" is almost completely useless. Politicians create dozens of unconstitutional laws before even considering repealing just one unconstitutional law. That is not a system -- it's a quagmire of deception, irrationality, fraud and abuse.

Politics is not the solution -- politics is the problem.

Who are the producers?
Who are the parasites?
Praise the value producers --
Ostracizing the parasitical value destroyers.

The X factor in discussions such as this is the explosion of illegal immigration and it's effects on political and economic planning. Republicans don't mind it because in theory it's a boon for business. Imagine owning a business and being able to pay your employees minimal wages because your "business friendly" politicians have created numerous programs to house, feed, educate and medicate your people thereby relieving you of those stresses. The Dems support unlimited immigration because they have an ever increasing amount of people almost totally dependent on gov't services to survive. Both parties in effect are supporting socialism to the detriment of our communities as well as the economic and social foundations of this country.

[Pagey]

Democrats never have to take responsibility for the failures of partial socialism since, with Republican help, they stop short of legislating full socialism.

It seems a perfect time for the
ALL TIME CHILLING QUOTE OF THE DAY :
"The American People will never knowingly adopt Socialism,
but under the name of Liberalism
they will adopt every fragment of the Socialist Program
until one day America will be a Socialist Nation
without ever knowing how it happened----"
Comment courtesy of Norman Thomas, six-time Socialist Party Presidential Candidate and one of the Founders of the ACLU.

Well, since it appears they're telling us what their intentions are, that's a pretty brazen statement isn't it?

Genuine, unfettered capitalism advances human life and, when consistently practiced, lets human beings keep the products of their own efforts. It is fair because it allows people to keep what is morally theirs, whether it's $1 or $1 billion. It is practical because private ownership and the profit motive encourage personal responsibility, innovation and competence. Capitalism never won because it never was given a chance. The folly of today is that most people think capitalism won -- which in theory, it probably did. But in practice we still have more socialism than not.

Deep down I'm an optimist ----right now we're heading fast into more Socialism ---but Socialism doesn't work and it especially won't work here with the open borders. Socialism brought down the Soviet Union ---it's not a system that can work.
