Fleeced, and Enjoying It

Obama, Pelosi and co. have taxpayers over a barrel. All excuses. The professor in chief. Plus more.

(Page 3 of 3)

To battle a conspiracy you must have facts and I assure you that the government must not be allowed to frame the debate if you are to preserve your freedoms. The stimulus package, tarp, and all other socialist measures are sprints down the road to serfdom and will not resuscitate the economy under any circumstance. They are massive taxes which transfer wealth from the have-nots to the haves. such transfers will impoverish America further. We have become Argentina and no one is crying -- only debating over how many billions the stimulus and bail packages should be...what tune was played on the Titanic as it was sinking? Over that we can cry.

THE REALLY LIBERAL ARTS
Re: Daniel J. Flynn's Al Gore's Grammy:

Dude, liberals rip off righteous awards 'cause, like -- puff, puff -- it gets The Man.

What happens when they are, like, The Man, man?
-- David Govett
Davis, California

"What else could possibly explain their four-decade long drought at the Grammys?" That's easy, they're not liberals. The Grammys, Tonys, Oscars, Nobel Peace Prize...etc, have all become meaningless liberal accolades to reassure the inward thinking within their elite liberal bubble-world.

David Reich's initial letter? Amen, absolutely! Could not agree more.

Other letters too offered some wisdom to one degree or another, but I fear it's a tad too late; the bad-guys outnumber the good-guys -- and, given the educational system (or the lack thereof) and massive brainwashing...? The cheerleading media too...

It's really most disquieting for an eternal optimist like myself seeing no way out of this ugly, swampy ditch we've been digging for ourselves.

Ever watch the water spiraling down the toilet when you flush it? Seems that that's exactly what this once-great country is doing to itself, and it's become mighty scary - - not for me, I'm old - - but, for our kids and their children?

The Marxists installing their policies so quickly, in accelerated fashion, and the wimpy GOP so futile, following the inept Dubya debacle of Compassionate Conservatism (Liberal-Lite) -- borders wide open, printing presses working overtime...

Pardon me, but I feel ill.

ACORN community organizers are getting $5.1 billion as "economic stimulus". In Hitler's Germany they were called brown shirts; in Stalin's Russia they were called block committees.

to frost,
If you cannot fight, you must run. I hear Costa Rica is nice this time of year.
