So does that mean its republicans buying votes......

I DON'T GET IT............ARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

Last time I checked, the Democrats ran the House.

How come Democrats always get a pass while Republicans take all of the blame?

I don't know Weezie but I believe you have blamed both parties equally. She's pretty much an equal party blamer................

How come republicans are so paranoid and trying to scare the hell out of everyone????? How come they can't say a postive word about anyone? I honestly don't know why you even ask why folks think it's time for the republicans to get some insight to the plight of the America the majority of us live and work in. It's not all about war, business, stocks, profits, and personal responsiblity. It's about "people" and the republicans have missed the mark on that.

Because FEAR has worked for them. If a government can make people afraid then they are more likely to capitulate and give up their freedoms and common sense for a sense of security.

The Pres says They are going to attack us again! But only I or someone just like me can protect you.

Fear works when you aren't paying attention.

My bad. There must have been something that made me think she was picking on Republicans.

My intent was to let you know she is willing to blame BOTH parties and has on many occasion. It wasn't a "personal" thing Hiway.

If you read the majority of her posts - which I guess you do - you would see she's overall rather liberal with her blame when something sounds just not quite right. I don't see her as a "republican" slayer. That would be Wordy - if you are looking for one. Sorry didn't mean to get ya riled up.

Hwy. I was just pointing out that it was a Bush proposal.

Seems to me....IMHO... that everything he and his advisers have proposed so far has kinda turned out f*cked up.

I don't expect you to agree with me.... but don't get mad at me.

I didn't make the rules......"The Decider" may prove me wrong about the way I feel about him. I could change my mind about his performance as President. He still has time.

You guys slam Clinton all the time and he is old news..... and if Clinton is the one that got us into the mess we are in..... then how come the GREAT ONE, THE DECIDER, THE ANSWER TO ALL OUR PRAYERS.....hasn't fixed this mess..... He has had almost 8 years and most of that time he had the republican party behind him, doing all the voting.

Peace Bro

They should not call it a tax rebate if people that don't pay taxes are getting it also. Lets just call it what it is. BUY A VOTE WELFARE PACKAGE>

I truly wish you would give "welfare" a rest. You're uneducated in the knowledge. You're thinking is old and you don't know what you are talking about. Please give it a rest.

The only "welfare" he's concerned with is his own. Some folks are just like that. They can't help it.

You are right...I'm uneducated in the fact that I have never drawn any gov't welfare. It's not hard to understand what it is though.

Welfare is financial assistance paid by taxpayers to people who do not support themselves.

That is the Wikipedia definition. What is so difficult about understanding THAT. Even a dolt like ME can understand that, it's pretty plain and simple. RIGHT? I didn't know that there was an UPDATED version of what welfare is that makes my thinking "old". Please elaborate o' modern thinking one.
