Forget about access to health care.
Back when you could opt out of social security, 3 texas counties privatized their own social security, after withdrawing from federal social security. Their retirement funds are at least paying 2x more to each person, than they would have recieved being in federal social security. And their death benefits are over 255 times greater.

I don't fault him for carefully choosing what he says as he's trying to appeal to a different audience. That's politics. I hate it, but it's what candidates have to do.
Not avoiding answering, but have to go the family just pulled into the driveway. I have to go do some of those liberal hate america activities with my wife and two children like eat at Outback Steak House. That is where all of us liberals get together to plot the destruction of the u.s.

Its post like these that always have me being the big meanie and say people that are liberals make no damb sense at all.

We have not had a true conserve President in 100 yrs
Obama has "acted" conservative-republican so far. Doesn't mean that he IS a conservative - get it?
Obama has continued repub policies - including spending.
If you are saying today's repubs are not traditional conservatives, I have said that over and over. So whats your point?
BTW your response is emotional, repub Presidents from Reagan back were conservatives, so you must explain why we must go back 100 years. Why was Eisenhower not a conservative?

The salad I usually get there (and I eat there pretty rarely, so I'm not that familiar with the menu, but I think it's their house salad) has bacon and blue cheese, so possibly even their house salad isn't acceptable for liberals. No good liberal would ever eat there.

Can't be a fiscal conserve with all the money being fake.

Every President has thier little pet projects that they want to have be thier legacy and that does nothing but cost the taxpayer money

All right. I have a few minutes while my wife gets ready. Funny. I would love to be a vegan, but I like meat too much. The next thing you guys are going to say is that no good liberal man would be married to a woman. The hits keep on coming.
