I agree that the Democrats must be defeated at all levels. But I'm not sure what they will get us. The Republicans are proving more and more that they will support the same programs the Democrats supported just to get the vote. And when they do get elected and they do control Congress it is the same old thing - Socialism creeps on and more and more of my paycheck is confiscated to pay for it.

TLBSHOW is correct - George W. Bush, along with other Republicans, should have their feet held to the fire every time they vote for more socialist programs. I'm not saying we should support a 3rd party candidate or anything, or that there's any other Republican Party candidate that we should nominate instead of Bush, I'm just saying that socialism is socialism, it should be rejected in all of its forms, and that ANYONE - Republican or Democrat or whatever - who supports it should be spanked for doing it.

Bush did have presription drugs as a campaign promise. I must admit that after listening to Frist yesterday, I was better informed than what I had seen reported on this forum.

This plan, if Frist has anything to say about it in committee, will have means testing (a fact sure to be exploited by the Dems as a campaign issue). The House version already has this option and Frist wants it included in the Senate version.

Apologies because the socialism issue is off topic to this thread.
