I have never heard a coherent explanation from either a Democrat or a Republican why spending can’t be cut. Republicans pussy foot around the issue. And of course the Lib media won’t make the case. I’d like to see a reporter say:

“Spending has tripled since Reagan; way out pacing inflation. Why can’t it be cut across the board this year by say, 20%?”

Thanks, trish ... ;)

Hi Cajun .. we try.

George Washington quote

DJ — it punches you in the gut, it’s so horrendous.
Every economic chart/graph I see from this thieving thug crew gives me nausea and trembling at what’s coming for our children, grandchildren and beyond.

The America we love .. imploding before our very eyes.

God, have mercy .. send wise, fearless leaders.

Remember when? When we had a real, down to earth, warmhearted and patriotic President who loved this country and its people?

A President who was comfortable with royalty, but didn't think that he was royalty?

I’m back, or at least my Internet is working again. Sorry I was gone, but I couldn’t get the router to stay connected. Trying to get hold of a friend, I had to CALL him on the phone, for Heaven’s sake!

Going to catch up on the thread.

But it hasn’t been quickly. Socialists have been implementing their plan since FDR. Reagan stopped them for awhile on a few fronts. But even then the plan was being implemented. It just took us awhile to catch on.

You have to see a graph to understand the magnitude of what Obama has done.

The last two years have been remarkably destructive, imho.

You know the country hasn’t gone into the crapper,
but the problem is that everyone thinks it has because
they’ve been told that that is where it belongs.
Obama and his ilk aren’t satisfied with destroying
America and they don’t even have to do that, what
they are doing is destroying the ideal of America,
making it worth less than nothing and too many people
are falling for it.
