No actually I don't watch Hannity. I have no use for anybody that is against anything Obama or Democrats do regardless of what it is.

On the other hand I don't care for liberals who so the same thing, which is the majority on this forum.

I can go along with this. I used to occasionally vote Republican.....until they turned into a party full of Hannitys................

Hannity....Is that about a smug, sanctimonious sumbitch or what? I can't stand the sight of him. He looks like Eddie Munster. Think about it.

The leaders of the sheeple are the rich ones.

Did I get the nomenclature right?

I did the math on Congress a couple years ago here and the Dems were a LOT richer per person. Baaa

I like when democrats use the 90's as an example of how they created a great economy under Clinton. Then the republican rebuttal is that the red congress was responsible. How about the technological revolution which saw a few small companies like Intel and Microsoft become global giants and make Americans a fortune? I don't think government had nearly as much to do with the booming economy as the thriving market. It also saw the criminal banks handing money out like it was free and so many people getting in over there heads which lead to the Bush era depression. And then the opposite both sides play the blame game. I don't give credit or blame to either side for either time frame.

Sounds reasonable to me. But, fat headed sharks like Gingrich will always try to grab credit for anything good.

And, you want to give them a fat tax cut. The richest people in this country aren't politicians at all....................

They just own a few.

Yes, Clinton was a cracka.

Since the mid-1990's, the Republicans have failed to control the growth of government, and have failed a substantial subset of the electorate who traditionally looked to the right side of the aisle to be the check and balance against unrestrained federal growth.
