Bye, Bye Estate Tax!

[monolith94]

there you go with your crazy liberatarian nonsense - you're not stealing less, you're giving away.

[PLATO]

I've always thought that the liberal idea that stealing less of my money was a gift to me to be very descriptive of their entire agenda

The estate tax is a good idea and I'm glade this bill will never pass the senate. What we need to do is raise the size an estate has to be before the estate tax takes effect because we still want family businesses and family farms to be passed on but we certainly want to take the lion's share of the estates from the heirs of Gates & Buffet.

Nixon a liberal.

Nixon a liberal.

Compare the Democrat that wins the primary in 2004. I BET you that Nixon was more of a liberal than him. He probably expanded the welfare state much more than any one running from the Democrats would even wish for.

You could look it up.

[Sava]

translation = he helped people that weren't rich, so he's a dirty liberal

[Imran Siddiqui]

The expansion of welfare under Richard Nixon was very big. ANY Democrat that won in 2004, wouldn't be able to expand transfer payments anywhere near to what old Tricky **** did.

You can deny it all you want, but the center has moved waaay to the right since 1980.

[Dinner]

Most Americans, rightly or wrongly, blame leftist policies for the high inflation and low growth of the 1970s. They've moved right; especially concerning fiscal matters.

I'm hoping people see how poorly Bush has managed the economy & the national budget and boot him out next year but his reelection seems just as sure as Reagon's or Clinton's second term was.

The biggest problem is we Democrates don't have a strong moderate leader. Alot of that is because the far left controls the party (Nacy Palosi anyone?) and they force candidates to pander to all sorts of stupid and out ragous leftist adgendas before they'll give them the green light meaning every candidate will be DOA when they get looked at by the main stream.

I thought that stupid and outrageous agendas are the democratic platform,

Clinton had a very moderate plateform. That, and that he's a great public speaker who can articulate ideas in a manner which spark people's emotions, is why he was the first Democratic President since FDR to get reelected.

To be fair Kennedy was a shoe in for reeelction before he got a few more holes in his head. His brother Robert was a shoe in for the 1968 election until an Palestinian Arab terrorist murdered him.
