It seems the Conservatives and Bush feel that money has meaning and value, but not the troops or the kids!?

Question

This explains why after four and a half years, the troops do not have good armored vehicles, health care and the love and care when they are hurt and the kids do not have Health Care, day care and schools that educate. We know.
The Conservatives seem to be worried about who pays for the killer bridge and all the other bridges that need repair or replacement. They think that the Feds, the state, the Iraq's or the UN, and anybody but rich and the whealthy should pay for the bridges. It is a sick philosophy, todays Republican Party!
The Conservatives know one thing for sure; they know who is paying for their services.
All this patriotic talk the Conservatives put out is a discusting attempt and poorly disguising strategy to rape the United States and it's people that make up the Country of any right or power to question anything that they do and why they do it!
We have the intellegence, the inside story, because we have spies in your camp! Many of them are related!

Answer 1

Money is their GOD! They worship money, not God!

If they worshiped God, they wouldn't tell so many lies, deceive people to go to war, destroy national economy and sacrifice our troops for their sick twisted quick-rich oily games!

They disgust me --- I find them extremely repulsive and come 2009 we'll bring our troops back, draft these bastards and send em to a "peaceful and democratic" Iraq on a one-way ticket!

Answer 2

The armored vehicle story came out after they were 85% done armoring them. People turned it into an issue anyway. Kind of like someone telling you, "Oh, by the way, I made a mistake on the lawn by not mowing it yesterday. It's 85% mowed and almost done," followed by you yelling, "Oh my goodness, he hates the lawn! He won't mow it!"

That's just silly, but they did it.

Health care? You mean a socialist health system? That's not caring for our kids, that's a short-term and badly considered fix that's failed everywhere it's been tried. No, thank you.

Education? Many teachers and administrators HATE "Leave no kids behind", but they keep raising the scores, keep improving their teaching. Could the struggle be why they hate it? It is in my experience. I love it. I'm a teacher. It works.

Your exaggerations about the conservatives bringing up these issues is silly. It is their function in our country to bring them up, and your desire that they be silenced is counter to the effective running of the country, just as silencing the Democratic party would be.

You think the "rich" owe who to fix the bridge? Why? Where is there an agreement of that? Or is it just your idea that if someone is successful that they automatically can have any money you wish taken from them?

Look at what happens to successful people in the "socialist paradises" that you dream of.

They leave. So do the jobs. It's already started. We let socialism in the door and the rich see the trends. They leave. Why would they stay?

Your rhetoric is silly. It's based on the idea that a system that's lasted 200 years, brought us this far, is wrong and socialism is right.

And if you didn't have free speech (regardless of the right-wing lunatic who tells you to leave the country), we wouldn't be answering this question, would we? Free speech, freedom, and the American Dream live. Those who wish to be successful, CAN be successful, if they have drive and courage.

Your conspiracy laden diatribe does not speak for me.

I am a patriot. I am a democrat.

You, are something else, on both counts.

I believe you'll discover that there are a lot more of us than you think.

Political bigotry is no longer, "cool".

Answer 3

When Obama ordered the take down of Bin Laden, every one I heard gave him kudos for the guts to go with it. What they were pushing back on was the press trying to give OBAMA all the credit for anything associated with going after him. Conservatives were just pointing out that the attack was made possible by the infrastructure and mission set in motion by the Bush Administration, including the original intel that led to this. YOU are accepting a straw man argument. Oil production is up for two reasons. It has increased on private and state owned lands the Obama Administration has less control over. New technology is being employed to get at more oil. Bush era permits are now coming on-line. Permits for the last three years are down 17% (Sen. Grassley). Add to this, the restrictions of drilling on the vast majority of East, West and Gulf coasts, as well as ANWR. Only 2 permits have been issued for the Gulf after the moratorium was placed on it and this moratorium was a fraud, claiming 7 experts signed off on it. Those experts screamed that they DID NOT! Obama only caved to a portion of the Keystone XL pipeline after not being able to provide any logical reason not to. There is talk that he will OK the rest just prior to the election. Why? Contrary to what the administration says, they know it will lower prices. This is also true of releasing oil from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR) which the Obama Administration has done in the past, as well as Bush. Utah and several surrounding states are suing the federal government to get back control of their land so they can allow oil drilling. Taxes lowest since 1962? The high income tax rate then was 90% then! JFK proposed to lower it to 50%. LBJ did that, increasing revenues in the process. Your sources should have shortened the range to 40 years in order to mislead and imply current taxes are low. Even then, Reagan lowered taxes from 70% down to 28% and had across-the-board cuts of 15%, 29 years ago. We now have a tax rate of 35% and a corporate tax of the same, the HIGHEST in the world by the way. Just what are these "low" taxes you are referring to? I'll just leave you with these. You should be talking about sacrificing values and being blind when you subscribe to the garbage you've been listening too. Learn to think about the issues not just react to what's spoon-fed to you.

Answer 4

I believe you are wrong, however as an American, I believe you have your first amendment right to your opinion.

When John Kerry stood on stage to debate George Bush, he clearly stated a sob story about a family that begged him for better armed vehicles, and they said they bought metal and had is shipped to their son to put under the armored vehicles. People cried and applauded his words when he said it is a shame that this administration didn't better equip our soldiers.

So, Rumsfeld asked Congress for 53 million dollars to help fund our troops, and KERRY VOTED AGAINST funding our troops. The bill passed anyway, and DoD got the money.

By the way, we do have more heavily armoured vehicles now. They are built by General Dynamics Corp. and were a huge feature at the Auto Show this year.

Answer 5

Our first amendment let's you spew this hate speech. Unlike CAIR, we republicans are not going to threaten you with a lawsuit. You have no facts that the republicans are against troops and kids. You can keep sending out your hate speech. I will still answer and get 2 points.

Answer 6

Yea, right.... Like the "kids" in the Dems new bill... up to 25 years old.. or the "poor"... up to 82,000 a year.... and what's up with using the gas tax to pay for light rail instead of fixing roads and bridges like it is supposed to? Try living in the real world.

Answer 7

Well you gave away the secret. We conservatives have meetings every other Monday night to discuss new ways to destroy everything.

BTW, not all Republicans are conservatives. The terms are not interchangeable.

Answer 8

To lump all conservatives into that lot isn't fair. True, there are some crooks that have taken advantage of their positions, but most republicans are hard working, honest individuals.

Answer 9

well another daily Kos retard found yahoo Q&A. Spew your crap, honest and truthful american will remember just how mentally ill the left is.

Answer 10

Wrong. There are now $20,000 bonuses for joining.
