So you know, no contracts we can't afford to pay for.

Fucking asshole.

Bitch_PhD hopes people remember this shit come election time.

They won't. I'm guessing come election time it'll be terrorists, terrorists, immigrants, queers, terrorists. You know... same as every election.

It freaks me out a lot that major decisions in this country of over 300 million people comes down to 14 people. I know it's not that simple, but it's still a really spooky thought.

Just for fun, that's 0.00000465% of the population. Yay democracy!

don't forget the giant novelty check for more tax breaks that they'll wave under the noses of their constituents and the 527 ads warning UPN (or whatever they are called now that they merged with WB) viewers that the democrats will outlaw the bible, paper money and vehicles older than ten years old.

So he likes lower taxes with lower/higher spending than you like in certain areas?

I... don't get it.

Even scarier is that those people have 0.0000000000184% of the nation's total capacity for rational thought

Is that a bad thing?

same thing, right?

i dont get it. the republican's are going to be focusing on freakpirate for 2008?

He said he never "signed a contract he couldn't keep his word on" but has consistently voted to expand programs and reduce taxes.

In short he is full of shit.

So you get that?

How will the kids ever learn a lesson if they don't stay missing?

Now that the political posturing (which is all this really was) is over, let's see if the politicians can work out a sensible compromise. I'm not counting on it.

It implies that he's willing to spend money for stuff that he considers a priority. Which obviously doesn't include health care for kids.

I always thought the first rule of business is to make more than you spend. And if you are temporarily spending more than you make, it had better be that deficit should be facilitating making more money in the future.

So what im saying is that if he lasted 20 years in small business, he must have plowed through a large fortune.

I would consider it a point of pride to be declared the Number On Threat To America by the Republican party.

Nah. Too easy.

You've heard of representative democracy, right?

I have been a victim of gay terrorism often. I hear they savagely redecorated the interior of the empire state building.

Thank you.

I'm sure it was just included for the purpose of full disclosure. It would be a misrepresentation of him, if she didn't portray his voting record accurately. I hope you didn't do that Bitch PhD.

As per the article, I'm obviously ashamed of my Congress for not passing this piece of legislation. Well, to be fair, for not being able to override the veto. Kucinich better have voted for it this time around or I'm going to lose all respect for the guy.

No more taxes we can't pay for wake up I don't have heath care why? Because I make to much for the state heath care and the out of control health care costs my employer can't provide it. Those out of control rising cost of health care and more taxes t will never be enough. We pay all the taxes we can now. What's next all our money goes to taxes and we end up on welfare. Get real people

? ?

I didn't think wake up really cost that much.

Speak for yourself, my employer doesn't offer any group wake up plan. It comes out of my pocket and I can tell you that I just cannot afford wake up premiums.

I'm against children of any kind.
