I was watching Stefanopoulous this morning, and I’m so tired of dems (Howard Dean) getting away with saying the Bush tax cuts and policies caused the recession. The Republicans never seem to answer that. I suppose it’s unpopular to say that irresponsible home loans to people who couldn’t afford them caused the recession, but it burns me up when dems get away with basically saying that taxpayers getting to keep more of their own money caused the recession. That’s stupid and makes no sense. Republicans need to come up with a way of answering those charges.

They should use your answer, it emphasizes the incoherence of that Democrat argument.

You are exactly right, and if Romney loses it will be because he and the Republicans haven’t grasped a basic maxim: If you allow a lie to go unanswered long enough the uninformed will begin to believe it. If i hear Obama say that “Romney will take us back to the policies that got us into rhis mess in the first place” one more time I’m going to lose it. He better damn well nail Obama during the debate and be prepared to knock it out if the park. Now we hear that polls show people believe Obama would be better able to manage the economy. The media is hopelessly and deliberately biased. Romney’s campaign doesn’t appear to adjusting its strategy to take rhat fact into consideration. Being MUCH more agressive entails risk, but this situation calls for just that.

I agree with you to an extent.

Certainly, we'd all love to see some fire and brimstone Republicans out there making the case, and we have some: Colonel West, Sarah Palin, Newt, Hermain Cain, Rush, etc, however...

The media absolutely suppresses such talk. In so many instances, they are nothing but a vast echo chamber of their own thoughts. Look at The View, for example (no thanks, LOL!). Bunch a biddies all bitching about the same stupid things with only one lame conservative they have on to put all of us in our places with... A living, breathing strawman if you will--so they think.

That's why I want at least one biased network of our own. Allow a couple of liberals on who are stunningly, unashamedly stupid to refute daily (wait, there's so many to choose from!)...

Wow this could be "the" post of the thread. You just hit on it!!

We have not answered the we inherited it all from Bush easy to answer question and it constantly comes back to bite us in the butt.

It's easy to tackle was well.Who held the Congress since 08?Who demanded that those who could not pay back loans get them anyway? Of the 786 billion that was spent on tarp how much was paid back?

? All we have to do is answer these questions for the left and a few more and they will fold like the cheap suits they are but we never do.

Looks like we will have to do it for them here....again.
