Sigh...did you like the Kool-Aid?
Surely Tanc has warts - any politician does. But in the bigger scheme, you have an acceptable conservative against a dangerous liberal. Helping the greater evil win is evil...
Oh really? Can you quote me scripture and verse on that? Or is that something that 'intelligent' man thought up all by himself?
As for your pet item: on the numbers, TARP itself has come in way under $700b net cost, about $50b actually...
And you call ME a "puppet"?
Do you realize how TARP was paid for? It was primarily by selling US Treasury securities. Do you understand what happens when a buyer makes a claim on that debt? It becomes money - in addition to the money that was used to initially buy the debt!
So you're telling me that $650 billion of the NEW money (not currency - but money) went away? I'd say that you don't understand how a money supply works.
...and a fraction of the $3 TRILLION Obama and the Dems have added to the debt in the past 2 years.
I don't like the $3 trillion in new deficits anymore than you do - but do you understand WHY they are spending like drunken sailors?
It's because to do any less would expose the extreme deflationary spiral depression that we are currently mired in! Do you honestly think that the Republicans are going to quit creating new debt? If they do, then people will see the full depression in all its glory.
That's what happens when we use a debt-based currency.
TARP isnt the most important deficit vote - the Obama budget, the stimulus, Obamacare and cap-and-tax are.
They are all sinful - every last one of them.
A republicans are better than the liberal Dems.
Not from a fiscal perspective they're not! They continue to promulgate debt-based currency exactly the same as the Democrats. History shows that the Democrats steal through higher taxes, while the Republicans steal through the "trust" funds.
...more importantly, if you cede this race to Hickenlooper, he will redistrict Colorado to give more power Pelosi, Barney Frank, and other liberal Democrats who voted for TARP, Obamacare, stimulus, and cap-and-tax...
I give the race to the Creator of all things. Do you really think that He cares if we vote for the lesser of two evils? Don't you think that He would rather have us obey His Word?
WHY GIVE THE LIBERAL DEMS MORE POWER?
Why elect someone governor who has a proven track record of indebting my progeny by $700+ billion and voting for the Patriot Act?
Tom Tancredo needs to seek repentence for those actions. If he does, then my family will vote for him - not until.
“I give the race to the Creator of all things.”
He is not a voter in Colorado. You are his hands and his feet, and failure to use YOUR talents is failure to live His Word. You ‘give’ the race by doing what YOU can.
” Do you really think that He cares if we vote for the lesser of two evils? “
God is pro-life.
You think he wants you NOT to care about that difference?
“Can you quote me scripture and verse on that?”
“Render unto Caesar...”

“but do you understand WHY they are spending like drunken sailors? “
BECAUSE THEY ARE TAX-AND-SPEND DEMOCRATS!
Why do snakes bite? It’s what they do.
Dont bear false witness by smearing the Republicans as just as bad as Democrats. That is 100% false.
