You should be careful there, keep making observations like that and people are going to think you mean liberals when you say nutsackers. We wouldn't want anyone confused. Funny how the deficit goes up under Republican presidents and down under Democratic ones but some people continue to push the claim that the opposite is true.

quote: ORIGINAL: DarkSteven quote: ORIGINAL: popeye1250 quote: ORIGINAL: DarkSteven quote: ORIGINAL: popeye1250 Steven, and do you want to pay "more" or "less" taxes in 2014? I've never understood the huge emphasis on how and when we pay our bills, as opposed to the spending that caused the obligation in the first place. OK, we'll put you down for "more" then. You've lost me. How does wanting to control spending at the time of spending, as opposed to at the time of paying for what's already been spent, make me an advocate of runaway spending? It sounds like good old common sense to me. Because politicians always try to deflect from the real problem. They convince the people that the problem is NOT the fact that they overspent by 800 billion dollars. The problem is whether or not they should raise taxes to pay back the money they already spent. Its actually the most ass-backwards way of thinking I have ever heard of.

Attributing political affiliation to the absence of a body part is carrying the divisiveness just a bit far, isn't it? quote: ORIGINAL: thishereboi quote: ORIGINAL: mnottertail The point being I think is that just because nutsackers spend like drunken sailors, doesnt mean they are going to pay for it.

MsMJAY, that tells me that we need to get rid of Republicans and Democrats. Their ways obviously don't work.

Only nutsackers are pretending to be confused, the house has been nutsacker for some years now, and more and more spending and debt, so....... You should be careful there, keep making observations like that and people are going to think you mean liberals when you say nutsackers. We wouldn't want anyone confused.
