Certainly it is not fiscal responsibility, as your track records speaks the opposite.

What do you have to offer America?

Nothing. Absolutely nothing other than more of the same failed policies.

I think you need to ask yourself what Democrats have to offer when they are running cities in the ground!

We thought Bush was bad? Obama tops all records!!!

Actual conservatives are a precious few in national office. I believe you are referring to the bible thumping neo-cons masquerading as conservatives during election cycles though. They offer the same thing the other side of the aisle offers; monumental waste of tax dollars, infringement on personal freedoms, and endless bureaucracy. The only difference is in where the money is spent and who is infringed upon.

Then why do liberals always want to tax them. Never heard one say tax me for what I want.One only has to look at ACA funding to see.

Yet NYC and SF are two of the most successful cities in the states with very high GDP per capita and are liberal dominated, especially SF. Clearly, liberals running cities to the ground.

I am still at lost to respond to this sort of argument. For decades, fiscal responsibility meant balancing our budget and that sometime meant high taxes (see Eisenhower).

Only in the past few decade did "fiscal responsibility" mean slashing tax cut for the rich, handouts to big corporations, unfunded wars, and creation of large and inefficient bureaucracies, then screaming chicken little that we are not balancing our checkbook.

Without hard working citizens, Dems offer little.

The more poor Dems that vote, the worse off this country is!

Red States and counties are a drag on this country.

You people need more tax dollars than you pay.

Start paying your fair share or shut the hell up.
