Bad idea's according to parsy's link:

* Reagan's "Government is the problem"

* Phil Gramm's contention that the country's "economic crisis" and "moral crisis" were due to "the explosion of government"

* Talk radio hosts' advocacy of armed resistance to "jack-booted government thugs"

* Dole's 1996 campaign, advancing the notion that

taxes were "Your Money" being taken from you

* Gingrich's Contract with America (welfare cuts, tax cuts, limitations on corporations' responsibility and on the government's ability to regulate them)

* Dick Armey's comment that Medicare (medical aid for the elderly) is "a program I would have no part of in a free world"

* Bush's tax cuts, intended not only to reward the rich but to "starve the beast", in Grover Norquist's words: to create a permanent deficit as a dangerous ploy to reduce social spending

* Jeb Bush's hope that the Florida state government buildings would one day be empty

* Intellectual support for attacks on the quality of working life in this county and for undoing the New Deal

Seem like good positions to me.

You'd think Parsy would like Bob Dole. Bob Dole talks in 3rd person like Parsy. But Bob Dole isn't anti-capitalist like Parsy. Anti-Capitalism scares D.J. Reminds D.J. of his hard-left indoctrination in school. Hard-left indoctrination is bad, mmm-kay ?

The other Mr. Mackey.

I like you! I may not agree with you, but I like you! You at least went to the link and read it. If you keep on reading a few things like that, your sub-conscious will start to work on you and you will experience ENLIGHTENMENT one day. You will have your “Moment of Clarity”.

parsy, who says thanks for at least reading it!
