Dear RockinRight,
Tax cuts are definitely supply-side.
Remember that lots of libs will feign to be fiscal conservatives. They want to balance the budget (or so they tell us). But it isn't by cutting spending, it's by raising taxes.
And in a static model, that appears to work.
It's a tenet of supply-side economics that as you reduce marginal rates toward the optimum tax rate, revenues actually increase (which requires dynamic analysis to predict). In that Mr. Bush's reductions all resulted in large increases in tax revenue, I'd suggest that we haven't reduced to the optimal revenue-raising rate.
I haven't studied Mr. Hunter's record of 28 years in depth, so I don't know whether any tendency toward "big government conservatism" is a function of his own beliefs, or rather a function of loyally following his president for the last six years.
In that I think it's very tough for the president's party in Congress to oppose his initiatives, I'm willing to cut some slack to candidates who emerge from the House or Senate who've been swallowing Mr. Bush's big government solutions for the last six years.

"I am being very serious and would appreciate your insight."
I wasn't trying to say that Newt Gingrich was Pro Family and perfect in all catergories. What I was trying to say was that Duncan Hunter and Newt Gingrich are the ony two choices that I have for the President of the United States of America at this time. No one is going to be perfect in every catergory and at this point these two are the only ones I would consider and look into farther to make my choice. I really do hope that there will be more choices that come out to run for President that will be people that have the beliefs that you and I want our President to have. I really want to vote and have someone elected that will be a President that follows the United States of America's Constitution in the way that our Founding Fathers wrote it down and not in the manner that these people in office in the House and Senate want us to believe it says what they want us to believe it says. I will tell you this, that at this point I do lean more toward Duncan Hunter than I do Newt Gingrich. What I don't want is to have a choice between McCain and Clinton; because I don't like voting for McCain because he is the lesser of two evils. Don't think I don't respect McCain. The time he spent in the Hanoi Hilton has made him the Manchurin canidate. I believe that there are things in his mind that were implanted there when he was in the Hanoi Hilton that he doesn't even realize. I hope this has made some sense because I want America to have a President that will take care of Her and also a House and Senate that will do the same thing. All of those catagories are important to me. I am only registered to vote as a Republican, what I am is a Patriot and American. God Bless America and All who have protected Her since 10 November 1775.
Armageddon itself is near if we don't vote for your favorite RINO.
Set aside the fact (along with our conservative convictions and principles) that RINO-rudy is WRONG on all of our dearly held the issues (including some VERY important ones such as the LIFE-OR-DEATH issues of ABORTION and GUN CONTROL) EXCEPT maybe TWO and all will be good-to-go.
Hold your nose and vote RINO-rudy!!!!!!
Don't think so.
Since the social right does not have a winner......maybe the only way to keep the party from fracturing and beating hillary is a Rudy/Newt ticket.
Wow you just get worse with picks. They have six marriages between them. I hope they get another couple in for the heck of it. Maybe before the end of their term in office we will have a few turn overs of First Ladies. That would be a first. /sarc.
Dude, you are confusing me with EternalVigilance.
I did not write "That's why he was afraid to run against her for the Senate."
All I implied was that Rudy has not proven that he can beat the Lizard Queen. I am not responsible for what people say in reply to my replies.
I included you since it was about a response to your original post.
Thank you. :~)
See you around the debate :~)
I agree with you about Duncan Hunter. The more and more that I read about him is making me choose him at this time. This is just the way that I am. I don't just listen to what the supposedly politically correct world tells me. I have to go and research on my own and make up my own mind. It seems that you and i are on the same path.
It's a sorry field of potential candidates. Liberal Rudy, Mad McCain the Madman and so on.
"This is funny and ironic. The income tax has made us all slaves to the state. The property tax has made us all serfs and the concept of property ownership a cruel joke."
Ridiculous!
Are you a member of the title nobility?
No?
Then you are descended from people who WERE serfs, and you would STILL BE serfs, had the power of the state not been taken up by your ancestors as a club to beat down and end the private ownership of humanity by the wealthiest and most powerful in humanity.
You are free and equal BECAUSE OF the state.
And, given that Giuliani supports Roe, how in the world could anyone trust him to appoint an originalist to the court? That is about as credible as believing John Kerry was for gun rights when he carried a rifle and went hunting in an orange jumpsuit.
It's sad when conservatives here can openly state Rudy is unacceptable but conservatives on radio like Sean Hannity openly ponder selling out their beliefs and supporting him. Conservatism can't be advanced through RINO politicians.
HA HA HA HA HA HA HA
I guess this answers my question about it being parody, as no rational, thinking being could actually hold such views.
"I guess this answers my question about it being parody, as no rational, thinking being could actually hold such views."
Nobody who understands history could think any differently.
HA HA HA HA HA That's a good one. LOL
You could wait for the Primaries first! ;)
If I were American, I wouldn't support Rudy!
In that case, I'm kinda glad you're not American! ;)
