Thank you for spewing a bunch of absurd irrelevant stereotypes. This was greatly appreciated. I hope you're not a self-employed english teacher or an editor.
Yes, a government is far more than its military. But a government cannot "protect" its citizens from starvation and homelessness while the government itself is penniless and going begging around the world for debt-backing.
How clueless can you Dems be? No other nation dares step into the deep hole that we have dug for ourselves since January.
Says you..Our people should ALWAYS be the first people taken care of. Folks of your ilk want to increase military spending. Why?
Also, what's your solution? Let people starve like we're a 3rd world country. Have children in the streets? Nah..I'm not clueless, just selfless.

And we hope you're not in a place to make decisions in government or a psych doc.

So the poor can't listen to music, play video games or posses a phone? Sterotype 101..Just because someone can't afford healthcare insurance, that doesn't mean they aren't employed and worth a few small luxuries. Regular healthcare costs a lot more than any of the cheap items you listed. Is a microwave too much, how about a dishwasher,a fridge or a washer/dryer..Where do you draw your sterotypical "poor people dont deserve" line?

I agree, and I would like to add. It's always something. When color TVs were still considered a "luxury", people would say "they have color TVs!". When cable became popular, ditto. Ditto cell phones, etc. Actually, watching TV is pretty cheap entertainment. Lots of people have cell phones instead of a land line. I would hate to live in today's society w/o a phone. Consumer electronics are fairly inexpensive, and they are marketed agressively. I don't have an I-pod or game boy, but some of my colleagues do.
It would appear that the liberal media are the only ones saying that the parties have lost steam. Say it often enough and loud enough and just hope that someone will believe it.
