I get so tired of hearing people talk about anything that the Obama administration does as being a burden of "more taxes for my children and my grandchildren" while the same people let everything else go to pot. What a bunch of phoney altruism! Lies, lies, lies. I am sure that when granddad is telling little Johnny "well sonny, you may have no house, and no job and no health care but at least you didn't have to pay more taxes....well, actually you did but at least you didn't have to pay taxes on something that I was against so just think of that when you are suffering, that at least I got to stand on my soap box and wave my scruples flag. All for you of course." Just you wait, one of these future generations will wake up and when they do you will not need to fear the government because they will be your death panel for I would never care for the generation that did not care for mine. You young people keep that in mind next time this generation or the ones that came before it criticize you for the mess that they left you to clean up and remember that you don't owe them or me a thing. Just let us burn.

That is Conservative lie # 347, repeated over and over by the mindless idiots who listen to Beck and Limbaugh.

I haven't lost anything except for respect for some of my "fellow citizens." My health insurance situation is just fine, I just happen to care about other people's situations. But if that is being a sore loser then fine.

IN accordance with the Truth in Advertising Act of 1987, I demand that you change your screen name; there is nothing "Repub"lican about you!

The worst is how incredibly hypocritical they are, none of them were saying this over the last eight years as Bush doubled the debt and sent the deficit to the moon. Now they are "outraged", yea sure......clowns.

I'm outraged that the debt of the past 8 years was spent on a military operation based on a lie and not on making the lives of Americans better through a more direct means.

SO are you outraged about the spending being done now?

Saddling future generations with insurmountable debt is wrong I believe....right?
