The medicare bill will not lead to privatization... it says they'll think about it 2012 or something. It will be loooong forgotten by then.

From a policy perspective, no, it isn't the worst thing. It's the absolute arrogance, though, that separates this proposal from all the others. It's like he's rubbing it in. "F- you, I don't need your vote."

Yeah, I get a sense of that.

As you have noted, I think a lot of people here have just had it, and it isn't just the regular malcontents, either.

Well, I can't say enough good things about fiber.

Ignorance is strength, right?

You're proving it mightly.You must be a bulwark basing it on your statement. Go vote for your third party waste,too' that'll prove you're well principled as well as more brilliant than a super nova.

Over this?

This is just one of many liberal moves GW has made in the last four years, and each time you say, "your going to let this one issue cause you to not support Bush?"

Bush has created and pushed through more big government and spending policies that Clinton did.

Why does Bush have to make that option so tempting?

Another brilliant argument in support of massive gov't spending!

I guess all you guys have left is high-school lunchroom arguments.

The leftists want to surrender to the terrorists in a spasm of self-doubt, and they want to take over the courts for the next generation, and the naysayers ooze about the NEA! The lack of perspective among the naysayers is absolutely breathtaking.

But, you don't understand'they naysayers are brilliantly principled. They'll show us those principles with a Kerry/Clinton Presidency, because they are true principled conservatives.

You know this to be true, they'll beat you over the head with it constantly.

I bet he could get the NEA to pay for that, as part of an art exhibit.

Yep.

It is one thing to try to compromise. But to flaunt and basically say "F you conservatives".......that is arrogance.

Well he may be under the naive belief that his "base" has two brain cells to rub together.

Maybe if you'd stop fantasizing about my !@#$%, you'd be able to make a halfway decent effort of defending your statist president wasting our tax dollars.

rw is a college kid.

The rest of the whingers, who now say that they won't vote for the president's reelection are nothing more than dog in the manger, cut of your nose to spite your faces types, and others NEVER like him, NEVER voted for him, and have been screaming, since he took the oath of office, that they'll NEVER vote for him again. Frankly, I no longer believe the reasons given.

No, that is your OPINION AND your WISH !

You can't see the forest for the trees, you have absolutely NO idea of what the consequences of your wish, and you really don't give a damn about this nation, her safety,or anything other than your own wee opinion, of how and what should should be done.

Quite the contrary. We know an insult when we see it.
