republicans talk of big government. does it get any bigger than LYING A NATION TO WAR

[spanone]

while cutting taxes to the weathiest 2% of the population....?

[liberal N proud]

1. When they talk of reducing the size of government, military is excluded

They never want to mention military spending when talking budgets or deficits.

[spanone]

3. not talking about budgets....but taking a nation to war based on lies.

[liberal N proud]

4. Still they don't include the military as part of the government

when they are talking about the government.

War is profit and government is offensive.

[spanone]

5. bu$h* didn't even put his wars in his budget.

one of the first things Obama did.

What Bush did was Despicable and Treasonous...he should be in chains

8. * 1,000,000,000,000 KnR n/t

6. republicans have contempt for the idea that anyone other than the prez has a say in declaring war

so they feel that lying is necessary and justified to get around a stupid, liberal provision in that quaint, faded, yellowed, "constitution". if the power to declare war were vested in the unitary president where it belonged, the lying wouldn't be necessary.

i'd put a sarcasm smiley on but face it, they really do think that way.

p.s., "weathiest"?

7. When wing nuts talk about big government it is just code word for being against everything

from education to welfare, excluding military. Big government means government safety nets and anything that prevents corporate welfare or anything that prevents corporations from making record profits. They are all for wireless phone taps, bedroom police, womb police and anything else that serves to install a sense of safety from the bad stuff in the world even if such measures only gives them the illusion of safety.
