[sandinista138]

Oh you mean California Teaching Standard 12.1, Principles of American Democracy?? No, I actually cover it with my seniors every September....hmmm no thanks,,feel sorry for yourself,,let me prescribe you a little Noam Chomsky to help you get our head out of your Neocon ass...better yet,,let's start slow...how about your review the promises and principles of Alexis de Tocqueville and Thomas Jefferson...that is if they aren't to "Communnist" for you!

You don't have a clue what the hell you're talking about .. You must have been absent the day your American History teacher discussed the Constitution. If that's not the case, then you must be really stupid! I feel so sorry for you.

Well bunnyluv...unfortunately for you we live in a Democratic country,, with Democratic principals...and since we will probably decide to vote on fixing health care, passing the Employee free Choice act, and of course electing our President to get us out of Iraq, off of foreign oil, then maybe it's you that should move to a Dictatorship since you miss George W. so much, try Uganda, China, R O Congo, Nicaragua....you'll find they don't count votes in those countries as well.

hmmmmm handouts? Ok let's stop the handouts...let's start with the defense budget, being thats were the majority of our Taxes go to, then to Corporate Welfare, then to Private Contractors for the following industries: Defense, War, Security, then the handouts to the rich, oh yes, because theyre not paying their share of taxes for the goods they use from us: Police, Roads, Public Education, Government Regulation, they just use them for free, or like you say,, a hand out. Point well taken!!

To sandanista138 - one more thing - give me all your money, food and clothing - I need it more than you do!

[bunnyluv41]

Okay, if you think that you deserve handouts- move to one of the following countries:

Canada, Sweden, or the Netherlands. I'm sure they'd be delighted to give you plenty of what you think you deserve - Socialism!

Fallowing Reagan's taxcuts and specifically Reaganomics, we have seen an increasing shrinking of our middle class, increased poverty, and the dismantling of social services, the fact is we live in a Democratic country, and the Government= Us the People, what do you have against Us? I'm for business as well, but fully understand that Business is here to serve Us, the Government, not the otherway around, everybody needs to pay for our commons at the rate they are used the most, hence progressive

[bunnyluv41]

We don't need the progressive income tax; that's socialism. President Reagan had the best tax cuts for small businesses, and he was not for socialized medicine. And why do you believe we need the government to tell us how to eat? That's also taking personal choices away from the people. However, I do believe that we need public health education, but if people aren't going to listen, don't you think that is their right to make their own choices? I'm for free enterprise!
