Obama supported the Bush tax cuts and got Congress to extend them for another two years during his administration. He even hired his fellow DemonRat President Slick Willie Clinton to convince Democrats in Congress to go along with it.
Therefore, claiming that anyone who supports cutting taxes "couldn't be a RAT today" is nothing short of history revisionism. Ansel12 is right to call you on it, stylin.
Plenty of "today's Democrats" also claim to be good devout Christians (notice I said CLAIM... like their hero JFK, they certainly don't LIVE that way) and many of them are vocally "anti-communist" as well (speaking out against China's communist regime, etc.) So the idea its impossible to a modern day RAT and hold the same positions as JFK is false. In fact, even though the Democrat Party is overall more liberal than it was in 1960, a Massachuttes liberal like JFK was STILL to the left of some centrist RATs in the deep south today. Unlike Kennedy, they won't support things like socialized medicine and amnesty for illegals.
Notice Ronald Reagan himself WAS a "conservative Democrat" in 1960 and he never bought the image of JFK you're selling. Reagan was a "Democrat for Nixon" for good reason. He knew the election of the Kennedy clan would be disastrous for America.
I know some of the JFK worshipers here think they'll convince "today's Democrats" that "their party has left them" by spreading this propaganda, but it's not working and I've never met a single JFK-loving RAT who decided to become a Republican because JFK cut taxes. Nothing good can come of spreading the media's fantasy that JFK was some of heroic role model. Buying into that myth and playing up sleazy corrupt RATs like him just helps the Democrats.
yep, ya caught me..that’s exactly what I said...JFK was a conservative.
yep that’s exactly what I am selling - revisionism.
paleeze...
