Because shut up, that's why.

Come on, now. Your guy, Cheney, said, and I quote, "Reagan proved that deficits don't matter."

Unless you were posting lots of screeds here against runaway Republican spending during the years 2000-2008. You may have; I don't remember. Please post links to those threads if you did.

Modern conservatism can be summed up in, "If libruls are fer it, we're agin' it!"

that quote is 100% correct. What also is 100% correct is the librul motto "if repubs are for it we are against it"

its the main reason our country is so fucl<ed up. both parties just attack each other, there is no middle ground.....

UNTIL


you go behind the scenes and the guys from both parties are golfing and drinking and laughing to each other about how they've punked the american people into thinking the sides are different from each other and that the government gives a crap about the people they are supposed to represent.


the Bush years sucked. the Obama years have been equally as shitty, with no end in sight.
