The Democrats are obsessed with the works programs of the New Deal under FDR, and are convinced that’s the way to get the economy going again. I heard Howard Wolfson bring it up again on O’Reilly the other night. I don’t think they understand that these things don’t work, however, if the government has no money to pay for them (and they really didn’t work that well under FDR, either). The only thing that will bring jobs over the long run back to this great nation are tax cuts and less regulation on small business.

Re: Immigration — “Immigration raids are ineffective: Despite a sevenfold increase in recent years, immigration raids only netted 3,600 arrests in 2006 and have placed all the burdens of a broken system onto immigrant families.”

That statement is completely irrelevant, as authorities netted more than 300,000 in the past year.

The left is obsessed with controlling as much of your life as possible. They want as much of your income and wealth as possible. Now they want to force you into government service (the GOP needs to start calling this a "draft" to defeat it). They want to control what information flows to you about their activities and they want to control the goods and services you use which are currently produced by a somewhat free market. It's amazing how many people fail to comprehend this and think that the left is somehow for greater personal freedom.
