Saying “NO”, to what protects the principles of the American way of life,
is what we expect and demand from our elected officials. Getting insensed over not getting what an opposition, claims is the only solution, is equal justice. If you can’t take it, then don’t give it out.

If that’s what it takes to stop the bleeding and preserve what’s left of our free-market capitalist system, I’m all for it. This is about survival, folks!

The GOP does not care about the American people or what’s good for this nation. Power and money are their only motivators.

These people are a trip! They cry about the defecit, while their biggest supporters are crying out “Don’t tax our billions”, with people like the “Petroleum Institute” which is just another name for the greedy oil companies. They fight government control in business, while fighting for government control in things like abortion, gay rights, and stem cell research.
There are a lot of people out there who are more than wealthy, off the backs of the middle class, while stomping on them, threatening outsourcing if we make them pay their share, while they have been outsourcing for years. You have the guys on TV who owe the government $3,000,000 in taxes, who now only have to pay $1,000,000 in tax. How much money do they make, while getting the advantage of legal tax evasion. But, it is Obama causing all the problems. Yeah, right!

Ifrichar Said: “So next time you are praising Clinton for being so fiscally responsible, maybe a small pat on the back to the GOP for forcing him to do it huh?”
=======================================
LOL…. “forcing him to do it”. I think it was the other way around…just look at what happened to the Republicans AFTER Clinton left office and Bush replaced him. Remember, we still had a Republican Senate and House of Representatives during the first 6 years of Bush (many of whom were in office during the Clinton years)… and what happened? Oh yeah, all of that “savings” that you credit towards the Republican congress, turned into large deficits in the amount of 3 trillion dollars during those 6 years.
Ifrichar, give me a break about patting the Republican congress “on the back”, you don’t get an “A” for the semester if you fail the final exam.

Wayne | Sep 13, 2010 11:24:25 AM —- Frankly, it doesn’t appear that Pelosi or Reid give a rats behind what the GOP thinks. Or have you not noticed this yet? Pelosi and Reid need to go.

kay—- I remember the GOP keeping a balance with Clinton and holding the deficit to some of the better numbers we’ve ever seen. So next time you are praising Clinton for being so fiscally responsible, maybe a small pat on the back to the GOP for forcing him to do it huh?

Big John — Nothing is stopping you from donating your retirement check to the IRS. I am retired and have The Balkans and Iraq 1 & 2 under my belt and earned my retirement. Yes there are some ways to save through the military, but taking from those who already earned it isn’t the right way.
