universal health care and education.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

And education??? Huh?

Education gets so much money that it looks like overfed duck getting ready to harvest its liver for Foie gras.

To liberals, the purpose of taxes is not to collect revenue, but to redistribute income.

Yes, indeed. I heard those very words out of Jesse Jackson's own son who sits in the US House of Rep. on a Chicago-area radio show. I couldn't believe my ears - that he would say it right out loud.

Was in Chicago iver the weekend. On WLS they had a Rat legislator who had helped quach this idea. Stated Illinois had a 50 BILLION dollar deficit already.

Don’t tell Michael Moore- he’s gunning for that free Cuban lard-sucking procedure.

Democrats aren’t that sophisticated, their evil ambitions outweigh reasoning and compassion. In Illinois even most Republicans are left wing so it is doubly bad. I do believe that this portends a tough time to make rationed health care stick in the public’s mind nationally.

That’s funny. “Education gets so much money that it looks like overfed duck getting ready to harvest its liver for Foie gras.” But what about the ugly duckling?
