The same is of course true for federal bailout money sent to state and federal governments. Such money just makes the coming day of reckoning worse.

I know exactly how you feel. two things.

It's all about the incrementalism.

No matter what he has been able to pass, there is no doubt in the minds of many that he is a socialist.

If we err, perhaps it is on the side of PC. What do you call someone who believes in private ownership but strict government control? Isn't that fascism?

Do you beat the "Everybody go vote!!!!" drum on election day?

Should there be some sort of qualifications to vote besides supposedly being 18 years old, a citizen, and refistered?

It's like if someone called themselves a gay rights activist then said "well if I could start from scratch, I'd change the definition of marriage, but since I can't, well, fuck it."


Politics is the art of the possible. Never confuse a successful politician with an idealist.

Feel free to correct me if I have this wrong....but I was allways taught that our Uniformed serviceman and woman fought and died for our freedoms(I know it's a quaint little idea...but there you go)...one of those freedoms being the right to actually be a ......well a socialist if I were so disposed.
