Because even republicans know that there are people in this country who really NEED some temporary support and future subsidy, where the liberals would prefer unrestricted lifetime support and system abuse.

? Republicans DO NOT OWN them but they are in possession of them at this point in time. When the Democrats were in office WHY didn't they flush out bad judges and repeal bad laws or why weren't they able to rid the country of the poor so we wouldn't have to have welfare? The Bible tells us that we will have the poor with us always and you smart aleckly say why don't they can welfare. Getting rid of(caning it) will be God's responsibility not man's.

Oh yeah, it takes 6 years to wane off a 50 year old problem. You probably think that it should take 3 days to create a free government in Iraq, which has never known democracy.
The biggest problem with the Republicans is we do not have a majority of conservatives. Not all Republicans are conservative and that is the problem.
Welfare reform started with Gov. Tommy Thompson in WI a while back. Newt and the boys forced it on Clinton.
The other problem is all inner cities are run by Democrats who offer hand me outs like booze at an open bar.
So, learn what you are talking about, then come back to have an intelligent conversation.

Because without Newt Gingrich in office to lead them, most of the Republicans aren't all that conservative. Most conservatives want welfare repealed, but most of the Republicans in office are not conservative.

Well, getting rid of something like that is not easy. Six years is not enough time to do much, especially in the Edmund Burke sense of "conservative." In short, changing all that stuff would cause chaos and rioting on the streets.

It hasn't been repealed because of Democrat opposition, and Justice Kennedy. Don't lose any sleep, we are working on it while you sleep.

They're afraid of losing the votes of the uneducated. They won't make their move until votes don't matter. I'm sure there's someone somewhere in the organization working on that one.

Actually Clinton killed a bunch of it. Funny how Democrats don't like to think of that. Also, anymore cuts would face Democrats holding filibusters( do you know that word? Look it up) til dooms day.
