>>The combination was quite effective when coupled with the bubble.<<
FF, i'll let the readers see if they can parse through the problem in the above sentence.
newt talked a good game, but did he actually reduce spending or just reduce the amount it increased?
over here in california, most define "cut" as "receiving more, but less that we previously expected." that's not my definition of a cut, that's my definition of an increase.
>>IMO, the bottom line is that given the long term fiscal realities, anyone that is promising more government is either insane or an idiot.<<
ah, but only those two kinds of people are electable in modern day america.
obama is about as close to unlimited government as you can get without someone throwing out the term "communist." mccain has his own issues, #1 in my book is that he's been a long term part of the problem that has led us into this mess in the first place.
anyway, hold on tight.
just like that ancient chinese curse, we live in interesting times.
i can't find the verse now, but i recall a biblical passage that chides the israelites for desiring lies from their leaders and rejecting the truth - or anyone who might try and tell it. how apropos to modern day america. |
