Today's democrat party would run JFK right out of town as some kind of TEA party confederate. Talk about your party leaving you.

Was that before or after the DEMOCRAT controlled senate got ahold of the bill?

1. And how many of them were created through expansion of the federal government v. the private sector, and was this before of after the tech bubble exploded. 2. Thanks to Reagan's peace dividends. 3. All at the insistence of the Republican congress... 4. There was NO surplus - look at the US Treasury tables...go on, I'll wait.

You leftards keep saying that, but there were no conservatives praising the governmentalization of health care. Nice try. How is that Obamacare working out? You remember the bill that had to pass before anyone could find out what was in it - only to find out they double-dipped, lied to the GAO and America about it's functionality and cost, and basically committed fraud against every American citizen.

If you're interested in this topic I'd highly suggest Mark Steyns' "America Alone." Buy a copy or check it out at the library - it's worth it, I promise.
