Do they not realize that it was money that made America great not ideology? With out national prosperity the luxury and indulgence in ideology could never have taken place. It appears that this shift taking place where money and prosperity are abandoned for liberalism stimulated by common and empty karisma will be the downfall of the empire. Once America has been fully brought to it's knees economically the left with all their good intentions will notice one thing...that you can not have your cake and eat it too. That with out economic stability you can not have the luxury of idealism.


Being an older man...who was raised in a liberal nation....If I had to choose what was wise at this point in time...choose between the MONEY and Ideology..... I would take the MONEY...America is in for a big surprise...the left did not build that business...the right and the conservative created America and granted the luxury of a left to exist...no right= no left.

When I think of all the things that I am proud of about my country, money doesn't even factor into it. I didn't marry for money either.

As I've said from the very beginning that if Obama wins it's because the freebie recipients don't want to potentially lose them under a Republican president.

I'm for helping the disabled however, not ones who pretend so to get freebies.

I'm for capitalism not a freebie entitlement nation which has increased under Obama's watch.

Funny that you can't cite a single "freebie" that Obama introduced that wasn't there before. Obamacare is NOT a handout... duhhhhh!

No the freebees have been more easily had under this administration.

I didn't say anything about Obamacare.

FACT: since the 1920's America's economy has done better, on average, under Democrats than Republicans. Wages tend to rise faster, standard of livings increase faster, and regular people just do better while the economy as a whole grows faster. Republicans are not good for the economy, the opposite really.

Ahh, I think Bobbis is having a hard time dealing with the fact most people don't like his favored brand of crazy.

Here's a news flash - there have ALWAYS been poor people and there will always be poor people; hasn't changed from biblical days.

Your so-called 'freebies' have been around for decades. Did you think they were magically going to disappear with Romney?
