BOBBY RIBS,
<< republicans are selfish bastards who dont know how to share. greedy bastards will create a two class america if it werent for the democrats. >>
That one is so ridiculous, I'm not sure where to start. Oh, how about the fact that Congressional tax returns PROVE that Republicans give far mare to charity then democrats. That's a FACT, slick. Gore gave a whopping $297 in 1997.
<< that woman with 8 kids is a needy person too. it is the reforms and helping the poor >>
Yep, when they're stealing our money to do it. They're VERY generous when it isn't coming out of their own pocket.
<< the exact reason what makes america so successful today. >>
Bwuahahahahahaha!!!!!!! If ignorance is bliss, you're stoned out of your gourd. Welfare and social programs made America what it is today? I repeat: Bwuahahahahahahahaha!!!!!
FREEDOM, entrepreneurial spirit, hard working, tax paying Americans made this country what it is. Those who fought in wars to protect these things made our country what it is.
Our country is successful IN SPITE of Federal Piggy, NOT because of.
toph99,
In answer to your question: A Conservative will provide the tools and the opportunity so that the individual can achieve to any level their own drive and ambition will take them, and then get the hell out of the way.
A liberal will try to make everyone equal, even if it means sacrificing the achiever on the altar of the lethargic masses, and will continually interfere in the natural order of life in an effort to maintain power and control.
EDIT: Not all Republicans are Conservatives, and not all democrats are liberals.
