The enemy you know is way worse than the enemy that acts like your friend only to stab you in the back.
Once Republicans have the numbers again in the future they're not going to reduce the size of government in any meaningful way, ever. THAT'S A PROMISE. We're on a one way path to larger and larger government.
The way Republicans talk you'd think when they're in power they'd put half the federal government and spending on the chopping block. Surely that's what the republican constituents want, right? I think politicians of both parties forget that they are not our leaders, they are our elected representatives. The difference being that we're supposed to tell them what we want, not them tell us what we should want.
Democrats tax and spend, Republicans borrow and spend. Neither ever ever ever cuts spending.
Spending and our debt exploded under Reagen, and they exploded under Bush.
At the democrats advertize that they want to spend money. They get people that actually agree with their socialist agenda to vote for them. They are wrong, but atleast they advertize what they are going to do.
Republicans however campaign on cutting spending, cutting the size of the government. But once they get in power, do they slash the government at all, do they keep any of their promises? No, not even slightly. THEY LIE TO US CONSISTENTLY, TELL US EXACTLY WHAT WE WANT TO HEAR, THEN STAB US IN THE BACK AS SOON AS THEY GET OUR VOTE.
They are the real enemy here. The size of the government, and the debt exploded under Reagen, and it exploded even more under Bush. Bush gave us Medicare Part D, the trillion dollar bailout of Wallstreet, and the 1.3 trillion dollar debt when he left office. He didn't veto a single one of these, the republicans didn't oppose any of these. They are reason we are in this mess.
Stop letting this continue.
NEVER EVER VOTE FOR A CAREER POLITICIAN, NO MATTER WHAT THEY TELL YOU, NO MATTER WHAT THEY PROMISE, THEY ARE LYING.
The only way we are ever ever going to get our country back is to elect in regular ordinary people, like Sarah Palin.
Heck I would happily support the one and only exception that proves the rule, the one and only politician that has ever ever voted against Reagen's and Bush's bloated budgets, government expansions and spending sprees, Ron Paul.
But if the GOP doesn't nominate a real person, not a politician. If they nominate another RINO like Tim Pawlentiny, or Mitt Romney or anyone in the Senate or House, I urge you please, please, don't vote for them.
Demand that Sarah Palin run as a third party candidate and vote for her instead. Even if it costs us the election, it will atleast send the GOP a message and maybe next time, they will put a real person, not a politician on the ticket.
Yes, it sucks to lose. But if we did this back in 2008, if we refused to vote for McCain and instead voted for a none-Rino. If we asked Ron Paul to run as a third party candidate and voted for him, then maybe we wouldn't have wound up with another RINO/Career Politician like Mitt Romney or Tim Pawlentiny as our nominee in 2012.
The way Republicans talk you'd think when they're in power they'd put half the federal government and spending on the chopping block.
But once in power, they never, ever, ever, ever come remotely close to doing that. Not even close. They lie to us.
So please, I beg of you, just say no. No politicians. Either we get a real person on the ticket, or vote third party.
LOL!!
Sometimes 2 words is all you need ;-)
Yeah, Republicans oppose free speech and beat up people who disagree with them. /s
Until they can SHOW me by FIRST abolishing MOST of the Federal bureaucracy,I trust them just one hair`s width more them the DemocRATS,THAT IS NO OVER STATEMENT.
I see his point and agree.
All you Dems out there...feel free to vote for a 3rd party candidate in 2012.

I have to agree with you in several ways. Keyes used to refer to the parties as the republocrats in his radio show back pre gulf war I. Gotta admit a real disconnect with people who refer to ‘the party of Reagan.’
There is no party of Reagan.
He, sadly, was an anomaly. He put CIA one worlder Herbert Walker on the ticket to “balance” it, and hence we ended up on the road to UN governance. Then Clinton took the Reagan recovery and didn’t blow it, even took credit for it. Newt and the contract with America kept him sufficiently gun shy. So far, so good.
W had the house and senate, and pissed away the greatest advantage the republicans have had this century, setting up the parasitic regime we have now. Nothing since Reagan has happened by chance. The squabbles between parties and their supporters have been largely symbolic till now. Things that made Hannity, Jon Stewart, Coulter, O’Reilly et al rich. No more.
Now, the rubber is hitting the road. Sarajevo was a beautiful place when the Olympics were there. The thin veil of civil society...
As Zappa said “It can’t happen here.”
And Franklin ... “a republic, if you can keep it.”
Stephen Colbert, isn’t he some sort of janitor for the Washington Federals?
