Have you ever heard of a Democrat against big spending?

Have you ever heard of a Democrat against Obmacare?

Have you ever heard of a Democrat against balancing the budget?

Aah,

Have you heard Democrats screamining for another trillion dollar stimulus?

Oh yes, you have.

Have you heard of Democrats not defending laws?

Oh yes, you have.

If you were to vote to put another Democrat in office, like in 2012, would you trust that Socialist....to be forceful in foreign policy? Or instead apologize for America?

Or actually give credit to the "real American middle class" instead of his pet middle class .... those who belong to unions?

America can't afford much more Obama and Clinton and Biden.

We're going into the crapper fast. Don't you guys get it?


I just got laid off. Obama didn't create or save my job. But, he spent about $250,000 on that (per job). Great.


Socialism will be great. Apologizing for America will be great. Obama is great.


I say "the nanny state sucks, it is an impediment to normal economic growth".


But, expect more, because while the Democrats are in power, wealth redistribution is still top on the list.

Their Socialist ideals don't make everyone well to do. They make everyone suffer equally.

We've had a mix of socialism and capitalism in this country for at least 100 years - just like every other modern country in the world. Unless you want to eliminate public schools, Social Security, and Medicare, we will continue to be a partially socialist country - and I'm glad.

Ah, yeah.

Quote:

Most since most Democrats would have preferred single payer or at least a public option.

Quote:

No, Democrats are definitely not opposed to a balanced budget.

Quote:
Have you heard Democrats screamining for another trillion dollar stimulus?
No. I know quite a few Democrats who screamed that the $797 billion dollar stimulus wasn't enough (and have been subsequently proven right) but I haven't heard of any screaming for another stimulus amounting to $1 trillion.

Oh yes, you have.

Quote:
Have you heard of Democrats not defending laws?
No, at least not those which are constitutional.

What a war in Afghanistan isn't forceful enough or you? Who else would you like us to invade. As for apologies... who gave one to begin with?

Seems like everything this administration has tried to do has been for the middle class regardless of union membership. I suppose we could as the converse question, has anyone ever heard of a Republican who did anything besides give mouth service about the middle class while at the same time doing everything in their power to destroy it?

Sorry to hear that, but according to your Republican friends you should get off your C-D and get your butt over to Craigslist.

So, you won't be applying for unemployment insurance or COBRA. Yeah right.

Unfortunately, you poor democrats are probably members of unions and you got sucked into a web of deceit -- you don't want to admit it, but you KNOW it's true. You WANT to stand up for America, but you are afraid that you will lose your pensions, etc. Therefore, you are living a lie -- not being true to who you really are or what your father and grandfather stood for. You got sucker-punched. Too bad you were too foolish to see it coming. You have to be feeling sorry for your children because you KNOW there will be no money left in the pot for them. It's up to you to rise up against Democrats and Unions --FOR YOUR CHILDREN'S SAKE. BE STRONG AND FIGHT!!!!!

What needs to be fought is the lunacy of the conspiracy theorizing, tin-foil hat wearing right and their visions of SOCIALISTS! behind every bush.

I suggest Thorazine and bed rest.

Wow. The "my team is better than your team" argument is getting pretty tired. 300million Americans, split pretty much down the middle on most elections. A precious few of them fit neatly into either camp.

Have you ever met an unabashed socialist? They're rare in this country. The current healthcare plan isn't socialist. A state run system would be socialist.

Ever get the sense that we could all stand to tone down the rhetoric a tad? Because everytime I hear someone trying to get me riled up against just about half of my countrymen, I start to wonder why they're trying to pull my strings...

Besides showing a shocking ignorance of the difference between the average American Democrat and a socialist, this post is otherwise a meaningless and useless expression of partisan hackery.
