Ok I'll ask you the same thing I ask the Liberals I spar with when they trot out YOUR same old tired arguement.
Plese explain just exactly HOW people "threw their vote away on Bush." Especially inlight of the record popular vote turnout this year in FAVOR of W?
And just exactly in your quasi liberal view did Bush "fool the people"?
Can't wait to hear your thesis on this one. Even though I probably already know what you're going to say.
And for our Liberaltarian friends here's what THE leading voice for your aprty has to say on the budget. He sounds WAY more grounded on the issues than most of you do. Oh and if the "throwing away your vote" is a "tired arguement"...refresh my memory on just WHO the Libertarian candidate is and how many votes he got?
Here's what Boortz has to say:
"The media will read the budget, see that a program is being cut, then run right out and find at least two people who's lives will just absolutely be ruined by the "cuts." But isn't this quite the double standard? Weren't we being told just a few weeks ago that the deficit was out of control? Why..it was the highest ever! (Not true, of course.) Now that Bush is actually doing something about the deficit, the left will have none of it.
To the left there is one and only one way to solve a budget deficit .. and that is to raise taxes, and to raise taxes only on rich people.
Just as with most major issues, the Democrats have no ideas, no plan and nothing to offer. They're concerned about the deficit, but they don't want to cut any spending. Their answer is going to be to raise taxes. Unfortunately, the majority of the Republicans in the House and Senate probably won't have the gonads to cut any spending either.
By the way, most of these "cuts" are just going to be cuts in the growth of spending."
Conservatives did, if they thought they were advancing the conservative agenda by voting for him. Total waste. Bush isn't going to do anything for them if he knows he doesn't have to earn their vote. Hence, voting for him unconditionally means that their vote doesn't actually count for anything with him.
And just exactly in your quasi liberal view did Bush "fool the people"?
Now there's an example of your total lack of reading comprehension. Probably the most glaring specimen I've ever seen on FR.
