what? how about you clarify your own post there big guy. i didn't summerize anything about taxation and spending, i asked you what you got for the taxes you pay. the answer is pretty much nothing. i didn't suggest we pay more taxes, i suggested that the gov't use the money i do send them to better my life instead of ripping me off, and i said that if i could, i would send my money to a competing gov't that actually met my demands as a consumer (of gov't services).

Dear Mike,

Send me your paycheck, give me control of your checking account, put my name on yours savings plans and make me the master of your retirement funds. I won't rip you off, I promise! I'll give you back your money anyway and at anytime I seem fit to do so!

Regards your friend,

Hillary Clinton

We all receive Federal funding for projects and social programs throughout our communities on a daily basis so I really don't know why you fail to see them. The biggest problem I have is that the taxes I pay go through too many layers of government before my money is returned to my community. All of these layers of government reduce those funds substantially and result in higher tax bills to me to cover the bureaucratic department management. Reducing the size of government will help reduce our taxes and debt level while increasing my wealth and freeing me to spend my money as I see fit. If you follow the statements made by Ms. Billary, if elected she promises to raise your taxes and create more bureaucracy which I feel will ruin our economy.

After reading your comment about Bill Clinton raising the taxes and falsely stating that it did the economy good, I think you need an awakening to the fact it caused an economic recession. We are currently under a 4 year period of record growth despite many huge financial setbacks including attack, corporate corruption, war, and natural disaster. We owe our financial resilency to the Bush tax cuts.

View President Bush's August 8, 2007 speech on our economy.

Liberalism is void of facts. Liberalism is not intellectual. Hatred is the bountiful harvest for the liberal feast.

It would be better said that I simply have a slightly contemptuous sorrow for those mired in the misery of liberalism.

MUWAHAHAHAHA! Sweet.

Without some serious political reform to get big business's special interest group's and lobbyist's cocks out of the politician's numerous willing orifices......things will not and cannot change. Government is corrupt to a degree by nature, as is any powerful organization, but when it becomes as greedy, narrow-minded, fat and lazy as it has is today it becomes totally ineffective with regards to successfully operating as it was originally intended. The checks and balances have failed and so will we as a country eventually without purposeful change. The writing is on the wall and we're almost out of "Grafitti Be Gone!!

I don't think for a second that the overwhelming majority of Americans actually know what the President has been accomplishing.

More so, I don't believe most Americans if given a choice to easily learn what the President was doing would even bother.

I'll bet more Americans know more about the recent doings of some dumbass celebrity than any elected federal, state or local politician or issue.

true, but i dont think credit (good or bad) can be directed towards the president. Its a major network with the president being the representative of all actions done by the government. Its also annoying to me that any negative image done by a person totally unrelated to bush (yer so called sided with conservatives) is considered to be part of the bush administration. example: mr fellow who is a conservative that runs some small little school program fucks up then we just assume bush is responsible.

Crazy blab coming from a guy who supports war on "terrorism" and the pursuit of invisible WMD's. Yup, Bush doesn't hate anyone.

What are you trying to say, that no one should support a war against terrorists?

What do you think if we walked out of this fight that the terrorists would throw down their weapons, cease their kill all infidels rhetoric and go back to weaving rugs?

What are you, nuckin phuts?!?!?!

We are screwed and the U.S. is going down the drain fast. The government has everyone ready to give up their rights, throw away the consitution, allow a police state and total control because they have so many people running around scared and paranoid of third world terrorists so they have the power to do whatever they want. People act as if terrorism and deadly countries like the Soviets and China is something new when it's not.

The only way I can see things getting better is if people research false flag terrorism and the real facts about what our government has really been up to. Then rally behind someone like Ron Paul for President.

Nearly all of the presidential candidiates Republican or Democrat will just continue more of the same. They are all just fighting for who can be head corruptionist.
