Your question is more of a statement but here it goes. I personally do not agree with the President's stance on the constitution in the utter disregard for the rights it grants upon people. You would have to be pretty dumb to have such blind support that your complacency puts your own freedom in jeopardy. I don't agree with the warrantless wiretaps and all the lies but the generalized name calling does not help with the issue at hand. This may be your chance to vent, but do it some other way, be an activist or something. Don't just talk, take action. As far as spending plans and people talking about welfare and all that other nonsense, does it really make sense to protect the oil in Iraq by spending billions which could really be used for other things and maybe changing the focus of our military might by going after Osama? People here seem to be complaining about liberals wanting to put money on welfare for those supposedly too lazy to go to work, not that they have fallen on hard times or anything, well if it takes a liberal to have a heart, then so be it, impeach them for a BJ, etc. etc... but see, this type of mudslinging still does not help the issue at hand. We are still wasting money for a war that we don't know what for and also people so complacent that they pass legislation which just slowly chips away freedom that's supposed to be guaranteed by the supreme law of the land. People need to learn again the premise that this country was built on -- freedom, not for some money-making schemes, war and/or legislation based on special interest groups' concerns. It is disconcerting to find most of the citizens just not giving a damn. Hopefully, it can't get any worse.

Yeah, like every time there is a tax increase up for a vote, they threaten to take any shortfalls out of police, fire and ambulance services in order to quiet the howl.
You name a bunch of things many people use (and many do NOT) and ignore the fact that an enormous amount of tax money goes into PRIVATE pockets - welfare, state pensions, pay raises, land grabs, gambling interests, union bosses, pork projects, and re-election campaigns.
Besides, private beaches, private roads, private schools and private restrooms are maintained a whole lot more scrupulously. And let's not talk about public bridges...

They're not. But YOU certainly are full of hatred toward your fellow Americans whose opinions might differ from yours. I'm glad you're not my neighbor. I'd start worrying about my safety.
By the way, your question doesn't make any sense. Quote - "...if you con jobs are so unpatriotic as to pay your fair share of taxes..." Well, they do pay their fair share of taxes, and why do you say it's unpatriotic?

"Bush supporters are typcally MORE patriotic because they back the USA so much they'll turn a blind eye to the decisions the govt it making especially when it comes to terrorism
he'll be gone soon enough" That is kind of a scary statement I understand why some people will feel that way, but isn't that facism? The people of Germany turned a blind eye to what the government thought was right and we all know what happened. Well Bush did take away some of our freedoms such as the Patriot Act I mean Democracy is about freedom how can we support someone who wants to get rid of it?

properly between the justifications i admire this u . s . a . is that we are loose to precise our critiques approximately our government, human beings reported destructive issues approximately each president so why is it certainly one of those great deal whilst issues are reported approximately Bush? i'm no longer in any way a Bush supporter, particular he has made a great form of errors in the time of his presidency..yet maximum of you the two voted for him or did no longer vote in any respect, so take care of it. I recommend surely calling him names won't make him end being our president, so recover from it and vote in 2008.

What is surprising is that they actually think that they are patriotic but that's not really the case,the people that support Bush are loyalists only to Bush himself and not the Country(because Bush is NOT the country),they are people who hold no regard for accurate and complete evudence just glorified "he say,she say or their Nation said".

The top 5% of the of the people pay 87% of the taxes. A "con" is likely to pay in a day what you will in your life time in taxes.

Republicans want to pay taxes, we just don't want to pay for free loaders! Give this country a democrat for President and you'll see welfare programs skyrocket. We don't neglect this wonderful country and you've really got your nerve to insinuate such. Why don't you try Iraq and show your patriotism...it goes both ways!

Blah blah blah , you commucrats better get your congress to keep the promises they made to get control of both houses or the taxes will come down and I mean really down. If they don't keep their promises, they will lose both houses and we all know that Fred Thompson will be the next president. Giving total control to the right party. Say goodbye to a lot of your giveaway programs too.

If you libs think you do not pay enough, get out your check books remortgage your homes send it in.
Or is it everyone's money but yours??
SO read our lips. WRITE A CHECK, SEND IT IN. Then you can love yourself sing Kum Ba Yah light candles hold hands and live in your car or a refrigerator box.
One thing I forgot to mention is that Republicans donate more then democrats, Why is that??? if you are patriotic why?
