A Few Thoughts

Many Republicans fancy themselves to be for small government. In fact, they are for HUGE government. How many people here think the government should know a citizens favorite color? How many people here think the government should know a citizens favorite flavor of ice cream? How many people here think the government should know a citizens favorite sexual position? How many people here think the government should know a citizens sexual orientation? Republicans believe a government database should contain such useful information on its citizens.
Republicans pretend to be for 'small' government, but are for HUGE government. Republicans pretend to be for 'free' markets, but are really for rigged markets. Republicans say they are for 'taking responsibility', but their method of accepting responsibility is to always blame the most convenient Democrat for all the messes they created. Republicans always vigorously wave the American flag but, in fact, their actions put our beloved country last. Cherish the tax cut! Did the Greatest generation have tax cuts and Tea Parties during WWII when we were facing real Fascists? Let's face it, when a Republicans tells you that he or she is in favor of 'small government and free markets,' aren't both of these lies?
Let's look at the Republican Party during the eight year George W. Bush 'Reign of Error.' The Republican Party led a powerful political machine built on a dazzling use of patronage and a belief that government was a weapon to be wielded in the interest of the moneyed class and on behalf of corporate interests. At the end of the day, the Republican Party was very successful at redistributing wealth to its constituents. Please just analyze this George Bush statement in October of 2008. "We need to recapitalize the American financial system." What does it really mean?
A card-carrying Republican states; "They (the Dems) subscribe to Lenin's "big lie" theory, which says that if you tell a lie often enough, people begin to believe it." I replied, "You mean, like, the Republican party stands for small government and free markets?" Who here thinks the card-carrying Republican fessed up?

Yes, there was the Bush tax cut, but what spending did Bush and his Republican cohorts cut? Nada. In fact, the Republicans added another whole layer of socialist health care called Medicare Prescription in 2003, remember? This proves my point, Republicans have a slobbering love affair with BIG government, they just can not be bothered to pay for it.
