That said, my dispute is with a gaggle of Repuke wannabe monkeys who are running on a “my tax plan is better” platform that basically raises taxes on me and many others though I really care MUCH more about me.
You never hear anyone mention the billions of kickback grants to phony “green energy” companies or corn growers or the millions pissed away buying .50 cals and grenades for Mexican invaders or the garbage political correct programs that infect every agency INCLUDING DOD which is stinking fat with tail to tooth, etc.
There’s plenty that can be cut—just start with every bogus regulation wielded by agencies, sell Fannie and Freddie off for a $1 and get out of the mortgage biz, close down student loans for which there is NO constitutional paltform, etc etc etc.
Cut cut cut cut cut.
The only monkey among the chimps talking cut cut cut cut is Ron Paul. He’s a screwy little dude who doesn’t care whether anyone likes him or not. I’ve always semi-disliked the guy myself but he’s the only conservative running at this point. If I had to vote for one of these characters it would be Paul
I’m a frickin’ Paulbot now. Stop trying to reason with me.
