It's a trend and it's a fact. <BR/><BR/>Why? Because liberals just wait for the government check to take care of it.lmshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14084723971909087264noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5068613979916406331.post-71603108587743877722008-10-15T22:41:00.000-05:002008-10-15T22:41:00.000-05:00Wow, you just said it would be OK to limit 1st Ame...Wow, you just said it would be OK to limit 1st Amendment rights for conservatives. I just love how liberals are all about free speech until they don't happen to like the speech.<BR/><BR/>And I'd rather the illegal Mexican immigrants go home. If I'm working for a living and paying for their healthcare under President Obama, you can bet you're gonna hear an uproar.lmshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14084723971909087264noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5068613979916406331.post-8543579807598743982008-10-15T21:08:00.000-05:002008-10-15T21:08:00.000-05:00The end of the conservative movement...and not sho...The end of the conservative movement...and not short enough it was.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5068613979916406331.post-28342934541943639682008-10-15T16:58:00.000-05:002008-10-15T16:58:00.000-05:00"He seems determined that more people will ride in..."He seems determined that more people will ride in the wagon than pull it."<BR/><BR/>Ooohhh, god-forbid that he wants to help the have-nots and level the playing field a little. I think you're party should just admit that you are a group of haves who are voting for the candidates that help the haves and deny the have nots, because it's not in your interests. Of course you can't do that because the haves are a minority and you need the have nots on board to win the vote. <BR/><BR/>Otherwise, exactly how do you guys plan to help the have nots anyway, if you hate welfare, assistance for college education, or even raising the minimum wage? I still have never gotten the "let us rich people keep as much of our money as possible, and it will work out for you better, i promise!" strategy.<BR/><BR/><BR/>The way, I see it those born from rich families or even being born into suburban school districts are the ones riding the wagon while the poor (and even the illegal Mexican immigrants) are pulling it. It's incredibly easy to get into college if you went to our high school, for example. I was just catching up with some people from high school, and realized that like 95% of the people I knew in high school graduated within 6 or 7 years. <BR/><BR/>The vast majority of your party does not understand college, both in being admitted to it and paying for it, and success is not an easily attainable thing for people in poor school districts or inner-city poverty. Giving a bump to help people get into college, gets them educated, it doesn't give them money, so saying it's a free ride is a completely faulty analogy. We have a way lower literacy and education rate than all the other developed countries anyway.<BR/><BR/>And besides, why do we need conservative talk radio to still exist. Rush Limbaugh and company spew out things that aren't even fact-checked and just add hatred to our national discourse. This author is saying, that it would be a tragedy if these guys were required to present a balanced (aka accurate) view of the stories?sophomorecritichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14320637485303592977noreply@blogger.com
