GO, GO, GO, GO, GO!!!!

Cut until it hurts then cut some more. We need to destroy the behemoth that government has become. It is the only way to eventually reach the right size for a time until it grows to unreasonable proportions again.

It is a nice vision but it won’t happen in this administration. Obastard must be gone before we can actually move ahead as a nation. Until he is gone we will be mired in conflict.

If the reduction in government employees and programs and construction temporarily sinks the economy... so be it. This s a price that must be paid. Without paying this price we are doomed anyway.

Sorry about the double tap.

It’s a start. Affordable government is always a good goal. Government needs to be cut in size, as well as in cost. I have a few suggestions. Do away with Homeland Security. Do away with all the unconstitutional czars. Get rid of the Department of Education, and the EPA. Break up Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, and let the Treasury take over the role of the Fed. Get government out of housing and banking. Rethink our immigration policies, and get serious about stopping illegal immigration. Stop democratizing Islam, and get brutal in retaliation for terrorist acts. Stop harassing innocent Americans, and start profiling Muslims. Stop funding union thugs, community organizers. These are some of the items I’d like to see on a budget proposal.

I am convinced that Liberals do not comprehend wealth.

Shumer isn't stupid and Pelosi isn't poor. On the average, Democrat politicians are wealthier than Republicans. Bureaucrats make more than people working comparable jobs in private industry. Nor are teachers stupid about getting your money. They ALL have better retirement and benefits than just about anybody.

For them... everyone who has a job is wealthy and has no right to more than the guy who can’t seem to get out of bed before 10:00 a.m.

That's just lip service justification they fling in your face to get you to knuckle under.

For them, there is no stigma associated with an aversion to W O R K!!!!!

That's because they've got you working for them.
