  • David Stockman demonstrates how far right the GOP has gone. He is a real fiscal conservative who is being honest about practical reality rather than preaching talking points. However, because the GOP is so far right, conservatives like Stockman seem like liberals in comparison. Similarly, Eisenhower, Goldwater, and Reagan all seem like liberals on many issues compared to present Republicans. It's funny that even the great Reagan wouldn't pass the purity tests that some Republicans have proposed.

  • @Justanotherhuman2 Actually buddy, he was one of the few people in the Reagan administration who was a big critic of Regean's policies.

  • There's a really good website that explains banking in laymans terms. Makes it easier to understand what guys like Stockman and Ron Paul talk about.  Google "hmscoop.com".

  • You always find the truth in the place where you least expect it.

  • If your going to "means test" SS, then I think this "means test" should also apply on pension benefits on those who hold office past/future.

  • @58robbo shut up fagboy

  • @BigORat do we stop importing oil too? what about rare earth minerals? do we stop selling our products overseas too? be interesting to know the full extent of your plan. how about tourists. can they come here? can we visit countries overseas or would that represent too much money leaving our shores? what if i prefer a bmw to the trash GM puts out. i guess i should pay heavily for that eh?

    how about we learn to compete!

  • @nicenonya3 very intelligent. well done. i'm sure that was a real stretch for you to think up such a brilliant argument! i'm sure your parents and your kids would be so proud! I'm sure with lines like that you must make a lot of progress in getting your message out there. once again, well done

  • @58robbo fuck you ,go suck Beck's tiny dick

  • i never thought i'd say this about spitzer, but his show is pretty good. he gives his interviewees an opportunity to speak and he approaches everything from an unbiased position. when all's said and done, i'm sure he's still a progressive dirtbag but he's at least encouraging debate

  • @BigORat bullshit
