That's my point, Fred. Republicans can get behind "No New Taxes," but then talk about all these new services (like death panels) with no way to pay for it.

You really can't have it both ways. If you want a new program, you have to have a plan to pay for it.

And that's where the GOP keeps falling apart... it's all talk.

Senate Democrats were slammed Thursday for taking advantage of the filibuster rule, which prominent members of their party have recently decried as racist, to block a bill from Republican Sen. Ted Cruz implementing sanctions on Russia.

1. Law and order 2. Lower taxes 3 Nation sovereignty 4. Individual liberty 5. Capitalism

6. Right to Life 6. Smaller government 7. AMERICA

The problem here is that these ideals contradict one another, you just lack the ability to see the bigger picture.

How do you want "law and order," while at the same time lowering taxes? Where do you think the money comes from?

How do you want "right to life" (which I assume is a reference to abortion) while at the same time you want a "smaller government?" No one has yet explained who will be in charge of determining whether the abortion is medically necessary other than creating a government panel for it.

Further, how do you propose "lower taxes," while at the same time paying for this new "death panel" and paying for all of the new children receiving welfare and financial assistance?

You see, that's the real problem. The GOP talks about hot topic issues that the more ignorant can get behind ("No New Taxes!") because they can't think any deeper about how it is actually going to be accomplished.

Think about it like this, Foxy. The GOP has had full control of the White House and Congress for about 60% of the time since Roe v Wade, but how many laws have they actually passed to limit or ban abortion? Surely you can see that it's all just been talk to get their base excited?

the Russians are paying more
The Democratics just used a filibuster to stop sanctions on Russia

The Democrats have the majority. Why would they filibuster?

Jebus you Trumpers are dumb.

While you're running off your keyboards about who are the the wealthiest members of congress let me make one thing clear I have nothing against anyone being wealthy, it's how they acquire their money and what they do with it that concerns me.

Laws manipulated to favor the wealthy. 2. Lower taxes for the wealthy
The richest people in government are Democratics


31 of the 50 wealthiest members of Congress are Republican.

Try again.

5. Unbridled profiteering
Gas costs is three to four times more in Canada. Just one example

All very sensical, and not really "Democratic". As an independent observer, who thinks the Dems are Keystone Kops Klueless, and the Republicans are Bond Villian level evil, I find both parties to be dangerous for their own reasons.


Now, go put on your slightly used Trump diapers.

A slight adjustment for you f*xxy: 1. Laws manipulated to favor the wealthy. 2. Lower taxes for the wealthy major portion of revenue to be taken fom mddle and working classes. 3. Xenophobia and isolationism. 4. License for WASP's oppression for all others. 5. Unbridled profiteering. 6. Imposing puritanical beliefs contrary to 1st amendment. 7. Control by wealthy oligarchy.

In other words every dumm thing this country was never intended to be!
