David Gergen says it is unfair to villify the RepubliCONS...
he says the Democrats need to cut spending. He says he will take a rise in his taxes as long as it doesn't go to any social programs.

Why doesn't he have a problem with it going for unused weapon systems or bombs to kill innocent people,and 300 dollars screwdrivers,that the so called job creators charge this country using OUR MONEY...

11. They have been saying it for years...
and they say it everyday and many pretend as though this is a new revelation. Many,don't pay attention (LIKE THE TEABAGGERS) until it affects them.

Many of the TEABAGGERS thought that it would affect those people who use social programs and those people happen to be them.

How are those job cuts and hitting you TEABAGGERS???Are you afraid now because some of you don't have police protection,well you can use all of the tax cuts for your personal protection,but I don't know how long that will be working for ya.I guess you can hire your own fire department too..

10. I love how these pseudo-men like to whine and dictate where
they don't want their tax dollars to go.
Hey fuck-nuts, since the corporations don't pay taxes, my tax dollars go to their refunds (wtf?) I don't want my tax dollars to go to BoA, EXXON, SHELL, Iraq-Afghanistan-pakistan wars...
I DO want my tax dollars to help the poor, the hungry, infrastructure.

I don't know, kinda like: Give me your huddled masses yearning to breathe free... corny, but something I do believe in.

14. That sums it up. That is what America is about.
That is why there was a revolution in the first place.

Gergen is something like a blowup doll of politics. A big dummy.

19. Well then .... Maybe it is time to TAX the CHURCH.
After all, the church allegedly performs social welfare tasks. I say allegedly because the republican bastards seem to be the only ones who feel that way. Myself, I think they are only Tax-Free Conservative PAC's.

Back to my point.

As the church spends tax-free money on social welfare, then obviously Gergen would favor taxing them. Maybe it is time for a serious discussion on ending the tax exempt status of religion.

28. He's turned out to be a real piece of work.
I used to wait to hear what he had to say about things and really respected him years ago. I can't believe the repug sycophant he's become. I would have never predicted this, but he's a ridiculous idiot now. A joke.

36. I did too..
but I noticed a change in him and many Democrats once Obama became President.

This is good I knew he was republiCON who worked for CLinton but,for some reason he kept coming on CNN everyday harping on the fact that he couldn't get any info from the whitehouse and how Obama needed more CONS in the whitehouse as though there aren't too many already.

The one good thing about Obama becoming President it showed how many people are racist who thought they weren't. I showed how republiCONS are in charge even when there is a Democratic president,and they lost their minds once Obama became President because thought because of the melanin in his skin he would help black people and that is something this country can't have.

We can bring people from all over the world and help them but if you are black don't ask...
