I just love how some conservatives have no problem with socialism that = corporate welfare, but God forbid expansion of health insurance programs by the government for kids

I have a huge problem with corporate welfare. we should have let all the auto companies fail. did anyone bail out car companies like desoto? nope. how about AMC? the expansion for health care for kids is absurd. it's a huge tax on poor people for free health care for upper middle class kids. that's a load of crap. it's bad enough I have to pay to give a government education to someone else's kid, but now I have to pay for their health care and WIC benefits? if I am paying all that, then I should be entitled to have sex with the mothers. that seems only fair to me. it's like I'm the freaking father anyway.

You're going to blame the JFK assassination on that? Granted it has been blamed on Organized crime, the Soviets, LBJ, and a host of others (maybe even JFK himself).

Yes, Chrysler WAS bailed out. DeSoto was a Chrysler brand, and Chrysler eliminated that just like they later eliminated Plymouth, and may eliminate Dodge (at least for cars)

Not bailed out.

I'd like to see someone make that argument!
