MrRodgers -> RE: A liberal, a moderate and a conservative walk into a bar. (2/14/2012 6:48:47 AM)

Would I be throwing a cold rag over this fun fest to suggest that any pres. who would have a platform of raising taxes on the poor, cutting taxes for the rich. (i.e., increase taxes on labor, reduce taxes on capital) among other policies...to wit:
...willing to start a war with Iran at the drop of a hat and may well...drop the hat and borrow 40% of the money to do it ?
...privatize soc. sec. ?
...believe abortion is a 'state' matter ? I wonder how he feels about slavery ?
...not re-instate the 'Equal time' requirement for broadcasters ?
...not reform Glass-Steagall ?
...cut safety-net programs to 'pay' for increasing defense spending.
...prohibit medical mary jane ?
...oppose federal funding of human embryo research ?
...supported the need for a stimulus...just not Obama's...i.e., campaigned against it since.
...Romney supported the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009. However, in 2011, Romney reversed himself and repeated the charge after denying that he had ever said that Obama's actions had made the recession worse.
Then on February 3rd, 2012, he managed to take both sides of the issue on the same day.
...AND call the above moderate or liberal ?
He is first...a capitalist. That means even though totally disproved over 30-40 years, believes sincerely and greedily that capital is the essence, the food-stock and true basis of the economy (driving force) completely turning around the correct admonishment by Lincoln
..."Without labor, you have no capital."
Romney would be another face on 'Bush III' anything but liberal or moderate.
