The problem is you have a slanted view on what the GOP was and is. It was never the ultra conservative party and damn sure isn't today.

Probably true, they are Libertarians but I'll bet most liberals don't know.
Bush was a big government conservative in the Richard Nixon mold. No one did more to expand the federal gov't than Nixon. I guess that makes Nixon a liberal, right?

DOMA introduced by Republican Bob Barr is Clinton's.
The Comprehensive Drug Abuse Act of 1970 signed by Nixon is Staggers
Maybe now you're getting it, asshole. It isnt one party or the other.

Maybe you could get that thorn out of your ass today, nope you like it there...I just report, if you don't like it tough shit...
It's pretty straight forward, race pimp
God, another weeping liberal. Look, girlfriend, it's just the internet. We are discussing politics. If you're going to cry and wail like that, maybe you should just go watch TV. Here's a tissue
I realize you have no self awareness, but you decided it was time to tell each other how we feel. You are seriously not a bright guy. You don't grasp anything. No sarcasm is clear enough for you.
And Jesus Christ, calm down. You're going to have a coronary. Stop throwing things.

The US needs a new revenue generator to get out of the doldrums of economic stagnation, that catalyst is MJ legalization. Of course corporations want MJ legalized..
We dont need a revenue generator for the federal govt, which is taking in record sums.
We need a catalyst for growth: A GOP president and Congress.

Gotcha, the fairness doctrine, where fairness is government regulating political speech so if a non-liberal view cannot be shut down then it should immediately be followed by the liberal view. OK, that one the word "fair" is used correctly, you got me on that one

the govt. is the beneficiary of the tax, the corporations is the beneficiary of income...and the next GOP will legalize it since the majority of Americans want it...and so do corporations, except the liquor industry....
You want to get back to the serious subject of saying no one would oppose Obama on anything other than his skin color?

You realize that the National Debt was never an issue until Reagan switched the federal government from what he critically called, a tax and spend policy, to a borrow and spend policy? Or that it had taken the United States more than 200 years to accumulate the first $1 trillion of national debt, it took only five years under Reagan to add the second one trillion dollars to the debt?
Where did our debt come from? When did massive debt become part of the American economy? Was it New Deal Democrats? No....they PAYED for what they spent. It all started with the 'welfare queen' mentality of Ronny Reagan who switched the federal government from what he critically called, a tax and spend policy, to a borrow and spend policy.
Reagan switched the federal government from what he critically called, a tax and spend policy, to a borrow and spend policy, where the government continued its heavy spending, but used borrowed money instead of tax revenue to pay the bills. The results were catastrophic. Although it had taken the United States more than 200 years to accumulate the first $1 trillion of national debt, it took only five years under Reagan to add the second one trillion dollars to the debt. By the end of the 12 years of the Reagan-Bush administrations, the national debt had quadrupled to $4 trillion!

The truth is "Irrelevant"
"The debt explosion has resulted not from big spending by the Democrats, but instead the Republican Party's embrace, about three decades ago, of the insidious doctrine that deficits don't matter if they result from tax cuts."
David Stockman - Director of the Office of Management and Budget for U.S. President Ronald Reagan.

Yes the truth can be irrelevant if it has nothing to do with the discussion. No one asked what caused it, so your post is irrelevant.

Tv politics shows, radio talk shows,etc created it. I don't watch news on TV as it is all mostly propaganda, and on the radio it is just randoms calling up to rage. Being a partisan isn't just easy, it creates a pseudo sense of community to subscribe to.
