All those things take a back seat to partisan, Democratic Party political politics, that is the reality. Liberals are bankrupt when it comes to morals, ethics and principles, it's always about politics, nothing else matter to libs, nothing.

Its at least $300 billion/year too much.

It is called 185 years of Democrat history, filled with nothing but hate and spite for everything America stands for. Get an education and get informed.

I think you've been "educated" a bit too much.

What do you expect from an organization that is based upon hatred of the US? It is not like liberal freaks want to defend the nation or anything crazy like that. Since the military swears its allegiance to the US Constitution, which Democrats abhor, and does not swear its allegiance to individuals like in other nations, the Democrats know they cannot grossly infringe upon the US Constitution too much without the military stepping in and putting these Democrat fascists in their place.

Hence, Democrats want the military abolished and the people unarmed. It is the ONLY way they can impose their anti-American fascist plans on the American people.

Please see Kaaboom's post #138 in this thread. He said:

I'm a liberal and I think we have a big time spending problem in this country. If it was up to me, I'd slash $600 billion dollars from the budget, by totally shutting down the Pentagon, and deactivating all branches of the United States Armed Forces, except for the Coast Guard, and the National Guard. Which is what I believe the founding fathers would have had in mind for our defense anyway, and which would still leave us with one of the largest militaries in the world.

Then I'd slash another $100 billion, by cutting out all corporate welfare subsidies. I defy any of you "so-called" conservatives to come up with a better and realistic plan for cutting $700 billion dollars from the budget. If any of you except the challenge, here is a hint for you. Anything that would cause massive famine in this country, is probably not a realistic plan.

Ok I can't stand it so I'm going to ask. How would cutting spending not cut the deficit and what really is the problem?

You're full of it! Of course Americans won't do a job for less than a "fair" wage so you are on the side of the greedy employers who hire illegal immigrants for slave labor wages to increase their profits and thereby discriminate against American workers? Really? If Americans were employed on those jobs they in turn would be contributing to our economy also and more then likely have healthcare insurance rather than the employers passing the social costs of illegal immigants onto we the taxpayer. Illegal immigrants don't pay in enough taxes to cover their social costs. What part of they are here in violation of our immigration laws don't you get or care about?

I just wish liberals and conservatives would cancel each other out. Unfortunately they add up to two wrongs.

Any moron can name call. Please show examples of how liberals have no ethics or principles. It sure seems to me that the people who won't pay taxes to help those in need are the morally bankrupt ones. Liberals believe in the public good and believe in cooperative actions for the common good.
