Dem. Sen. Claims U.S. Doesn’t Have a Spending Problem, It Has a ‘Misallocation of Wealth’ Problem

February 16, 2013 at 9:36am

In reply to The Big Mick.

Preciesly.

This “we simply have a wealth distribution problem” view, which has been parrotted by the far left for a few years now, ASSUMES first that all money is essentially owned by the State — and that they can pull it back from you whenever they wish.

Harkin’s view is not socialism, however. It’s feudalism.
‘McCarthyism’ and ‘Lies’: Benghazi Congressional Hearing Devolves Into Insults

In reply to Metallicat.

Well, it doesn’t.

Look, the Congress has never passed a budget. That means the money budgeted for Security has never decreased since the GOP took over the house.

And, even if the House HAD passed a cut for security, its up to State to decide how to allocate it so everyone is safe. If State didn’t have the money to keep the Benghazi consulate secure, you close the consulate.

It’s still the fault of the Admin, any way you cut it.
‘Discrimination!’: House Dems Boo Reporter’s Question Asking Nancy Pelosi Whether Democratic Leadership Is Getting Too Old

Perfectly legitimate question from a political standpoint.
Is It Time for the GOP to Abandon Social Conservatism?

November 9, 2012 at 12:03pm

In a word: Yes.

Social conservativism was never conservativism. It is a statist belief (not conservative) grounded on religious beliefs (not constitutional).

The right approach, in my view: “As a party, we oppose . However, because of the size and scope of this great nation, and the 10th amendment, decisions on these matters should be left to the states. We will oppose national measures designed to force all americans to accept one view or another; likewise, we will not interfere with the states are they determine these issues of their own accord.”

Agreed. This is unfortunately true. I would wager that you’ll never again see two white males on the Dem ticket. We need to do the same. (Fortunately, we have more minority TALENT than they do. They have quantity, but we have quality).

I like him too, but he *sounds* crazy sometimes. Remember, optics matter. If a person doesn’t look sound like the president, they never will be.

Besides, he needs to run something first. No congresspeople or senators on the top of the ticket. Generals qualify, colonels don’t (and yes, I know, if you’re a colonel you DO run something — selling that fact to the public is another matter.

Ryan, Rubio, Paul: No go. Never ran anything. We need ex biz people or ex governors. Either could be a VP candidate, though.
McDonnell, Martinez, Jindal: Rock stars. Pick two out of the three and could be a dream ticket right there.
Rice – Fugget it. She won’t
Christie and Bush: Permanently toxic.
The Valerie Jarrett Incident You Have Probably Never Heard About

Many of us conservatives, i think naively, expected that one of these days, black Americans would wake up and realize that the Democrats were only using them for their votes, and start voting in a more balanced way.

It now appears that there are quite a few (for lack of another name) black supremacist politicians who are thinking along the lines “since the Dems can’t get us equality (really supremacy, since they want reparations in terms of cash or power to balance the scales that exist in their minds) our only option is to support political and religious structures that introduce enough totalitarianism so that equality (really supremacy) can be coercively enforced.

This appears to be the intersection where Black Liberation Theology, the Nation of Islam, and Socialism are about to meet.

Religious Leaders Nationwide Defy the IRS to Endorse Political Candidates on ‘Pulpit Freedom Sunday’

In reply to Eastinfection.

There is no risk of churches being taxes. First, tying the tax deduction to a restriction on free speech is most likely unconstuttional. Second, it is not at all a settled issue that DONATIONS are INCOME.
