Politics & Government - 11 October 2006

I posted last week about the good news of the deficit being lower, but the weenies didn't like Breitbar.com as a source. Well, you can now find it in many places, including ABC News. http://www.abcnews.go.com/Business/wireStory?id=2555294

The Deficit is down to $247.7 Biliion. The main reason is because the "deficit narrowed sharply because revenues climbed by 11.8 percent, outpacing a 7.4 percent increase in spending." Additionally, "Administration officials said the actual 2006 deficit is down to 1.9 percent of the gross domestic product. They said that is below the 40-year average deficit of about 2.3 percent of the GDP." That puts it into perspective. Democrats retort with the silly notion that they turned a huge surplus into a deficit - like that was our hard earned tax dollars that they sucked in under Clinton without any plans to spend it! Don't get me wrong, I prefer a balanced budget as a matter of operation, but let's make the tax cuts permanent!

If abortions were banned, they would still occur, just in unsanitary conditions (Ghettos etc) and both the mother and the baby would die. This would be killing 2 rather than 1.

Gee. I thought they were pro life. (Rolls eyes)

Do republicans know that stem cell research could help citizens with Alzheimers, Diabetes and Cancer. This would not affect a single person, but the families as well.

How stupid can S.U.V driving republicans get?

There are so many people in this country that have their head soooooo far up their *** that it aint even funny. They either think A: America is truly untouchable, which even I would like to believe but I dont, or B: that just because they dont care or the fact that they arent interested in the thought of WWIII which will prolly simultaneously be Armageddon means that it wont happen. Every one of you people that feel this way do nothing but bumble around in life like Beavis and Butthead, looking for something better to do so you dont feel like a parasite. Basically what Im asking is when are people gonna wake up and realize that this very REAL world is full of very REAL danger and just because you dont care dosnt mean that it wont affect you when it REALLY does happen. If you think about it, you can even see this pattern in nature. Ants work and prepare for winter so they can hibernate all winter and survive, but other INSECTS die in the winter because theyre too busy PARTYING in fall.

Republicans claim to be pro life, but Bush didn't sign the kyoto treaty. Global Warming could kill hundreds of thousands.

Republicans claim that they didn't sign Kyoto because it would be bad for the economy. How would the economy perform if hundreds of thousands died?

Sounds foolish right?

I have a feeling that republicans would much rather toddle around in their Ford Suburbans.

They wouldn't save someone's life if it affected them!

Maybe they just don't care about global warming as it won't occur in their lifetime.

But I thought they were pro life?!

Say a person lives up to the age of 38 as a man, and due to his past and his beliefs he wants to change his sex. 5 years after his sex change he beats a person to death outside of a bar for slandering him. Where does this (now) Woman go to jail? A male, or female prison?

A california man is being accused of treason. apparently he took a little trip to Pakistan to sign up for Al-Qaeda. Apparently he has been in some videos calling for the destruction for America. Should this man face a traitors death and be hanged. I believe that he should. Treason is a heinous crime. Do you agree that he should be hanged?

The last time the Republicans lost control of the House and Senate as a result of the McCarthy hearings on Communism, during the 1950s. Do you think that Bush, by making America afraid in a similar ways, may have created the same environment that will lead to the lost of control of both houses? This is not to say that the Democrats are a better a choice, just that the Republicans may not survive this challenge.

George Bush is not nearly as stupid as people think.
He is either under a lot of stress now and he has preoccupied thoughts all the time, always having to watch his words, making him sound stupid or It is an act. But he's not stupid.
