Ted, I hate to say it, but except for Mitt Romney, it doesn’t really matter which of the other morons gets elected. Obama, McCain or Hillary are all, more or less, interchangeable as wannabe socialists. They are going to tax the working people of this country into the poor house while feathering their own nests with tax payer dollars. Mitt doesn’t need to, He’s earned his own wealth without questionable land or cattle future deals, or multimillion dollar book advances. BJ Billy was talking about how Hillary is going to bring back the middle class dream to the US. I want to know how she’s going to do it? Tax all of those who’ve managed to get out of the middle class until they’re back in it? Tax everyone in the middle class to the point where getting to the middle class is just a dream instead of a reality? Dems haven’t done a damn thing to stimulate the economy since WWII, except JFK’s income tax rate cuts. And you damn sure don’t hear any of them touting that approach to stimulating the economy. Socialists don’t want a thriving economy. A thriving economy means that the people don’t need the government to control every aspect of their lives which is the ultimate liberal/socialist’s goal.

“Standing in the way of progress is not how a political party needs to be remembered.”

I am curious…exactly what progress are you talking about?

Regarding the New Deal, the perspective of history has not been favorable of it. Using a more relevant time frame, Dems are looked at with disdain becasue of LBJ, Jimmy Carter and Bill Clinton as they are tired of the tax and spend tactics used by them to support their programs. When they can not even support themselves, they really don’t care about what you are going to do with the money.

This is what I am counting of with Hillary- she will evoke the spirit of Jimmy Carter and LBJ and folks will be repeled by it.

That is, if they wake up.

The “New Deal” has been a disaster for America and the Constitution. It never even fulfilled its stated goal of ending the Depression; it just created the Welfare State.

Sounds like all you are focused on is political expediancy and winning elections for your side. That kind of thinking is shallow, damaging, and dangerous.

I’m sure that same thing was said about the New Deal, by some loser Republican back in `33.

Look what it got him. 60 years as the minority party.

Unless that “progress” leads to the destruction of what we know as America…

Standing in the way of progress is not how a political party needs to be remembered.

Those who oppose what the people overwhelmingly want are going to pay for it at election time.

Do you really want the GOP to be the permanent minority party for decades, like they were in the 20th century after the popular New Deal programs?

It’s pretty much a sure bet that America will get some form of Universal Health Care system in the next 4 to 8 years.

With a Democratic congress and a Democratic president, who’s going to stop them?

“Hillary lays out how she’ll Britain-ize our health care through “efficiencies.”"

She could start by getting the lawyers and the frauders out of the health care system. Oh wait, can’t do that…the Trial Lawyers practically own the Denocrite Party, and the frauders make up an important part of the Democrap Constituency…
