What is the TRUTH sir? The former administration has used terrorism as an excuse for everything they have done. It has been nothing but a curtain for their corrupt practices of deregulating companies to the point that there is widespread account book fixing, no-bid contracts for friends, torture, and on and on... Ridge would of course say everything was within the constitution for fear of admitting being accomplice to breaking the law.
Well, when I see such emotional blather regarding terror, de-regulation and corrupt practices in a vacuum of facts and reality, I can see why you would ask "what the truth is."
I doubt you could recognize the TRUTH if it walked up and shook your hand.
Of course, you have no credible evidence to support such hysterics because it is obvious you just parrot DNC partisan talking points without any attempt to comprehend what you are even spouting.
Why is it that the new label of choice for Republicans is socialist when describing Democrats.
Because it is a FACT; what would you call nationalizing Auto manufacturing, implementing a fairness doctrine, nationalized health care, controlling vast portions of our economy and spending us into a $1.8 trillion and climbing spending deficit?
It is because it is fear-mongering continued, rather than the truth of creating a government that is for the people, by the people instead of the Republican creed of for corporations and the wealthy minority, by the corporations and wealthy minority.
The "fear mongering" is a trait of the Democrat party. The fear mongered about the economy in order to implement a vast Socialist agenda that Americans would reject if not for the fear Democrats are foisting on them regarding this recession.
We don't need to "create" a government for the people; it already exists. What is being created is a Socialist nightmare that will spend generations of Americans into poverty and unemployment while Democrats "fear monger" about how Bush got us there.
Your class warfare rhetoric is typified by Liberals who think that only highly intellectual Liberals in Government power can decide what is "good" for Americans and that they are "entitled" to the political power they will "fear monger" to get.
And how is this accomplished? Through outsourcing, irresponsible lending practices, price gauging and robbing of the American worker and consumer.
How trite, yet the irresponsible lending practices were encouraged by Democrats through the likes of Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae to provide home ownership to minorities who could not afford them.
You act as though Americans can't make competent decisions on their own regarding borrowing and lending practices. but alas, that may be due to the fact that our Liberally controlled education system does such a ****ty job educating?
Price Gouging? Who has engaged in price gouging? Are you being FORCED to by goods you don't desire? Who do you think is going to GOUGE you when the Liberals you support raise the tax rates on oil, gas and corporations? :doh
Economics is OBVIOUSLY not your forte'. This is the MAJOR difference between Conservative thinking and Liberal thinking (oxymoron); Liberals think that individuals cannot take care of themselves and therefore need a Nanny State that steals from those who produce to give to those who do not produce which is nothing more than pandering. Conservatives believe in the freedom of the individual and markets to provide for the society and that by allowing them the freedom of choice and ensuring a proper education, the citizens will prosper.
The Socialist thinking you represent leads to several BAD things; malaise, unproductive use of resources, less choice and mediocrity.
Look at ANY health system being run by Governments. Look at any programs being run by Governments; they are rife with waste, employees who could care less (for the most part) and corruption.
The TRUTH is something the Republicans on the far right have long since forgot and that is why they are in tatters.
Yet your “version” of what the “truth” is requires willful ignorance and denial.
Who do you think is going to pay for all this BS? If you think YOU wont be affected, you have a serious reality check coming. :rofl
