Republicons claim that they don't like to pay taxes...
and that they don't want their taxes to go to certain people in this country. Could someone tell me why they don't care about 300 billion that their taxes paid for another country for some bushit. Why don't they care about the 9 billion dollars that is missing. How do they expect to pay for the lights and roads and other things they use in this country.

Why are we all americans when it is time for war, but we aren't when it is time to dissent. Why are americans fighting for someone else's freedom while in the meantime ours are slowly being taken away.

Why do they hate to help their own countrymen and women to become better people, but they will ship, import or bring people to this country to train with our tax dollars and give them the jobs they we the american people can do. Why as bush says "Remember its your money " when he wants to use it for what he wants but its not "Our money" when he wants to spend it on some bushit. What is wrong with these people? Why do republicons hate america and americans?

1. I remember in the 80's when Ronnie Raygun and the Neocons...
...went ON & ON about "Welfare Cheats" and Lazy People who were "Draining our
Tax Dollars".

Truth was (at the Time) The total for the Welfare and Food Stamps were about
One and a half percent of the budget...Big Deal....a penny and a half to help the poor.

BUT...

At the same time the GAO (General Accounting Office) estimated that approximately
3 percent (TWICE as much as the poor) was being ripped off by the Arms makers
and Military Industrial Complex.

And Stupid Americans bought right in the the Republican Bullshit...

12. I know just like they do for all of the...
flags and flowers behind bushit. Remember when he was on the stump trying to sell his plan for
Social Security his favorite point was " remember that its your money" evidently its our money when he wants to ask for tax cuts or war but its not for the needs of the people in this country.
