Another Day...More Politics
Well, it's another day here in paradise...lol.

It's Thursday, July 31st, 2008 and it appears that I haven't had any views of my blog (never mind any comments). Maybe it was a good idea when I quit writing this thing on a daily basis.....what's the point if no one reads it?

I would love some of you "liberals" to respond to my last post! I'd love to get some honest views as to why someone would be a Democrat - more specifically, a "Liberal" Democrat. I for one, just don't get it?

Taking the risk of "beating a dead horse...", I'd really like to know why the Democrats are known as the party of the American "workers". It just doesn't make sense to me. It made a lot more sense back at the time of "JFK" Democrats - there were actually some "conservative" Democrats then. Some that cared about fiscal responsiblity - as opposed to (what appears to be) the viewpoints of todays Democrats, which seems to be what I would call, "the Robin Hood Syndrom".....lol. In other words, take "everything" from every hard working American, and give it to the "lazy slobs" who seem to only want a handout. They don't want to work, but would rather sit on their couches, watching TV, and live off the taxpayers....of course, buying the food - "food stamps" (which of course, includes their necessary "booze" and cigarettes), and all their other "necessities" of life off the sweat of the American Taxpayer. And, Hey, lets not forget our "obligation" to take care of (more handouts) all of the "illegal aliens".....
Where is it going to stop? Well, it's not likely stop under any form of Democratic president (especially Barak Obama....yikes, he's a full blown Communist!)

Although, I certainly do go along with "helping" those unfortunate souls who can't help themselves - those who are disabled, or otherwise, CAN'T work - NOT those who do not WANT to work.
So, other than the above, I feel, for the most part, I don't OWE anything to anyone! Not because you are a minority (any minority!). Not because you grew up in a disfunctional family! Nor because you are too LAZY to get up off your sorry butt and work - take advantage of the opportunities that this county has to offer! Not because you want to drink, take drugs, or have "irresponsible" sex and pump out babies that you can't possibly afford (but expect the taxpayers to pay for)!
And........don't even get me started on the "world" community! We owe our first (and pretty much only) obligation to American Citizens! Period! I absolutely do not believe that our government should take one nickel of my tax dollars to give to foreign countries! (I do not have any problem to providing aid for things such as natural disasters. But for emergencies only! )

Well, that's my rantings for the day........
Come on Liberals.....help me to understand why you think it's a good idea to have the government take ALL of our money to give to someone else - creating hardships for all of us hard working Americans - with the poor economy, crazy high fuel prices, etc..... I don't know about you, but I need the government to take less taxes so I can afford such silly things as fuel to heat my house this winter, or just gas to get to work.
