Some make you laugh. Some make you angry. But they all give
you that "shake your head in amazement feeling" and make
you wonder if they really believe what they said.
Ted Kennedy
Regarding his request to yank an ad that he called "indecent"
where JFK proposes tax cuts:
Since the editorial in this issue is about the GOP
mincing words, let's go to the street (Freerepublic.com) and get
reaction from the people about Ted Kennedy. They don't mince words
on the Free Republic Forum. Ted, you say you are a man of the people.
So, let's hear from the people:
TexasNative2000
Two words: Yank this!
DoughtyOne
Was there ever a more degenerate and rotted family tree?
alancarp
Maybe the Manson family, but I wouldn't put it to vote.
zarf
Dear Ted: Blow me.
steve-b
Teddy, you're all wet. This is water under the bridge.
Senator_Pardek
Hey Swimmer, is homicide "indecent", also—you vile, bloated,
drunken, lecherous, liar and cheat?
Right is Might
"Republicans Are 'Indecent' for Using JFK in Tax Ad" But killing
women is OK!!!
NYC_GOP_Chick
(ref a "hoarding of the JFK legacy)
Hoard it?! Where the hell is he going to put it? Between two
of his 30 or 40 chins? Why can't this guy ever remember that his
character is about watching his pregnant girlfriend drown and not
just being JFK's and RFK's dopey kid brother?
octar
That murdering dirtbag knows all about "indecent".
Liberal Buster
Dear Red Ted: You are indecent for killing Mary Jo, you fat@ss
prick! What's the matter Mr. Lard, don't like to be reminded how
far you have strayed from the path? You are a communist, unlike
your brother. You need to be constantly reminded of that fact ...
and the fact that you voted against a black Supreme Court justice
(racist) ... and the fact that you killed at least one woman (murderer).
You have no moral authority to call anyone or anything indecent
when you are the epitome of that word.

Old Soldiers Never Die,
They Just Fade Away
Unlike old soldiers, our freedom is dying. And
it is not slowly fading away. It has been fading fast under
the Republican control of Congress.
No, we do not have socialism since the means
of production are not yet controlled by the state. No, we
do not have communism yet, even though Dick Gephardt and his
slimy thugs want a classless society with an equal distribution
of the goods.
What we truly have is a slave state because
our earned income is absolutely subject to the control of
the IRS and our government is divesting us of our freedom
and personal rights.

Tax Cuts Need No Justification
"But here in America we have become
so mired in welfare-state thinking that most people approach
these issues as though tax revenues are a pot of cash
that belongs to the government. Just look at the differences
in the way tax cutting and government spending are treated.
A number of people have proposed that any tax-cut plan
contain “triggers,” which would allow a phase of the cuts
to be canceled if projected surpluses do not materialize.
Have
you ever heard anyone propose a trigger for government
spending? Increases in spending are considered so normal
that if someone proposes a smaller increase than planned,
it’s called a budget cut."

The Subversion of Education in America
By the 1990’s the decades of effort to overturn
an education system that taught specific bodies of information
and the skills to use them—arithmetic, spelling, history,
civics, science—had effectively been transformed into today’s
touchy-feely system. It is a place where a student’s feelings
of self-esteem are more important than whether they actually
know anything other than the specific answers to
the test. Thus teachers now "teach to the test"
(their paycheck depends on it) rather than provide a broader
body of knowledge. It is a place where competition is discouraged
as unfair to those less qualified for any reason. It is
a place where socialist attitudes and values are the priority,
not knowledge.

Tired of the centrist mumble? Here are some refreshing comments
straight from the"tell it like it is" school.
Comments on tax policy and our slave state:
Virginia
Thomas
"The percentage of Republicans who, in their voting, proposed
to increase federal spending went from 21% in the 104th Congress
to 33% in the 105th Congress. Can you guess what percentage of Republicans
voted to increase spending in 1999, the first session of the 106th?
The answer is: 99% of the House; 100% of the Senate. The swiftness
of the turnabout is breathtaking: in 1996, there were 417 House
Members whose votes would have reduced federal spending and 95 Senators;
in 1999, there were two House Members (Reps. Sensenbrenner and Paul)
and 0 Senators."
So who out there believes that Republicans leaders are fighting
tax slavery?
Read "Mincing Words in Slave State
USA" to find out what you should do.
Phyllis
Schlafly
"When we hear wives and mothers assert that today's economy
"requires two incomes," that they "have to take a paid job in order
to maintain a reasonable standard of living," let's be blunt about
the cause of their financial bind. Mothers don't "have to work"
in order to support their families; they "have to work" in order
to pay their taxes and support the federal bureaucracy."
Daniel
J. Mitchell
"Opponents of tax relief claim that the nation cannot afford
a $1.6 trillion tax cut, but they conveniently ignore the fact that
the tax cut is less than 29 percent of the projected surplus, less
then 6 percent of projected revenues, and less than 1.2 percent
of national economic output over the 10-year time period . . . .
Mr. Mithchell also noted that "Even if only one-half of the
surplus was dedicated to tax relief, this would mean a $2.8 trillion
tax cut."
President Bush, instead of holding firm at the 1.6 level, said
he would accept a 1.35 figure.
In the mean time, he could not find one department of the government
to fold or merge.
While corporate America takes an ax to their payrolls and shuts
down offices to get expenses in line, Mr. Bush proposes a budget
that grows even faster than the rate of inflation.
What was that again that our founding fathers fought for?
