This is less government?

Posted: Wednesday, October 01, 2008
Republicans have long stood on small government, free markets and capitalism. How is George Bush giving $700 billion to save private companies less government?

" Stunning, simply stunning to see political hackery here after both parties passed that bad bill and Bush signed it with LUV. How can you support either party?

Where was plan B or Plan C? They had plan, they meandered on it for a week and then passed it with silly pork (Wooden arrows! Dear God).

How could the economy be strong until august and these Neanderthals not see this train wreck coming?

If you are still wasting time blaming the other party, you are part of the problem. "

" You people are dreaming if you dont think we are the bain of the worlds existence right now. I didnt say people hate the American people, rather the american policys and the fact that idiots like you continue to vote for the very people who caused it all.

Move to China?? Why, they own most of the US now anyway thanks to the Bush government.

Asking a soldier what people in the country they are occupying think of the US?? Come on. If I walked up to you with an M-16 strapped to my shoulder and asked you if you like America, what do you think your answer would be?
They are just placating them with the answers they want to hear, then they go around the corner and blow themselves up trying to take as many of the US soldiers with them as they can.
I cant beleive you people are either so blind, or so dumb that you actually think the world idolizes the US government? Maybe they will again some day, but only if we get these idiot war mongers and policmen of the world out of office. "

" The WORLD does NOT hate the U.S. I have talked to soldiers and I have asked them, THEY say NO. I have talked to people who have done missions work around the world. They say NO. I watched the Olympics looking for the way the audience responded to the U.S. They LOVED them. I read an article about the "Amazing Race," show and the article said, "The people in these COUNTRIES LOVE the AMERICAN PEOPLE. Dano, a soldier told me that you are just a F'ing idiot. Not MY words, his. But I agreed with him. As for working for the government, that means nothing. They are many in government who could not name the governor, senators, congressman. How congress works. Who has the power in government. Dano, I am ANGRY that MY TAX DOLLARS pay YOUR salary! I guess I can say there are tens of millions of AMERICANS who HATE YOU. "
