Is 2.37% a Mandate?

[TwoForFlinching]

Smaller government
Same taxes
Cut spending
As a start.

2.37% is the mandate of heaven and proof positive that those who opposed Obama are fools - according to some

Whew! That saved me the trouble of typing it out again on this damn phone!

Problem is, that's followed up by war mongering, baby killing, xenophobic, jingoistic, homophobic rhetoric that they crap all over themselves.

See here:



I'm cool on the GOP financial stuff. The real "Tea Party" smaller government spending stuff. But the social agenda is what kills them every time. Even Pat Robertson supports marijuana reform and environmental stewardship.

Yeah, the Democrat's social reengineering is a shining light on yon hill. That is, as long as the last 27 productive people in the country pay for it.

The Tea Party doesn't give 2 craps about a social agenda. That's the MSM's way of demonizing and marginalizing them. Looks like you drank the MSM Kool-aid.

Pray tell what the fundamental values of the Republican Party are. If they'd been able to articulate any over the last 10 months or so, they wouldn't be in this mess.

What are the fundamental values of the Dem party?

What are the fundamental values of the Dem party?

Easy one. As there is no longer a Republic, we only have two indistinct branches of the Democrat Party. Those are Parasite and Parasite Lite. Their fundamental value is to take your stuff and give it to someone that will keep them in authoritah.

What are the fundamental values of the Dem party?

Well, not being a member of their party, I was curious and looked it up:

Asking all to pay their fair share? What about those 47 per centers?

That whole list is Boolsheet. God, the smugness is rampant. Strong emphasis on the fundament part.

I sincerely hope one of them never vocalizes this to me in person. I may lose my stoicism and engage my lizard brain.

Is this Bush's economy or Obama's?
