I kinda wanted to say that myself, but I know that people would react with "elitist!" screams. Maybe Boortz has a better idea: If you pay $0-10,000 in federal taxes, you get one vote. $10,001-20,000, two votes and so on up to $50,000 and five votes. After that, no more votes. That way, only those with a vested interest in the country and who productively contribute to it have a voice in the way it's run.
I believe it should be open for discussions, sans peur et sans reproche.
There's been a bit of reproaching here on FR, I suspect some obama supporters are here.
That may be kool aid in chrissy’s cup, and he’s feeling all tingly inside.
His loins are tingling!
*snicker*
But they support these guys because they are for tax cuts and pro life (less so for McCain), both the right thing to do. And let’s not be disingenuous here...many “Christian Orthodox” would rather party and do business than take moral stands the way Evangelicals do.
His reply, 'why does he have to accomplish anything?'
UGH. And he's a lawyer to boot (hence Edwards). The world is really headed to Idiocracy. If you haven't seen that movie, its pretty stupid, but 100% right in its underlying message... we are getting dumber.
Unbelievable that anyone let alone a lawyer would say something so stupid.
I have seen Idiocracy, several times, it's a movie to laugh at, how stupid and dumb down the world had become. His name, 'Not Sure' and how he came by it was a hoot.
Nothing is showing up in your post. I’m on dial up so I’ve had to blocked may pictures or I couldn’t read a thread, it would be too slow.
It appears that the Dems have found a better demagogue than Bill Clinton. Obama puts Bill Clinton in the shade. Don’t even mention Hillary whose speeches couldn’t excite anyone even her most rabid supporters. But naturally what would one expect of Democrats but to support a pol with as thin as resume as Obama simply on his “vision” of the future. His socialist vision I mean. I’ve never seen a pol promise so much with as little chance to actually deliver.

Maybe he'll discover the theory of everything. Giving everybody everything they want. Doesn't matter if he delivers, only if he promises too to get elected. And millions of dumba$$es will fall for it.
Of course the Dems do this socialist thing every election cycle, but I've never seen anyone peddle this stuff better than Obama. And the reason he gets away with it is because nobody (inside his party) has asked him about it, and he doesn't talk about it in his public speeches. It's all "hope" and "change" for the Obama public appearances. His actual social policy is right out of Marx.
We know the hildabeast is a marxist. Which marxist will win out?

I believe they don't ask because they already know the answer.
Obama appears to be a great stage hypnotist,
or he fits H.L. Menchen’s definition of a Demagogue to a tee, “one who will preach doctrines he knows to be untrue to men he knows to be idiots.”
Probably a mixture of both.
Good post Phil
I see that now he has the Muslims supporting him,
