    The Dufus in Chief
    Hello:

    What's worse, a tax and spend Democrat or a borrow and spend Republican?

    To me, and I don't know much, it seems that if you're going to spend, paying for it is better than borrowing for it. But, that's just me. To me, NOT spending is better.

    Of course, the dufus in chief borrowed. Without going into a long and boring economic dissertation, borrowing was a very, very BAD thing to do.

    What ever happened to conservative politics? Tell me, which of the four dufus's running are going to reign in spending?? The Mittster? McCain? Barrak? Billary? None of the above?

    We're in for a rocky ride. Buy gold.

    Ex,

    I don't know what happened to conservative politics, but I'm also still trying to figure out why the party that's spent the last 6 years whining about tax cuts for the rich wants to give rebates to "even the wealthiest taxpayers" also.

    None of the above. That is my cynic's choice. You are right - no matter who or what gets in, it is going to be a rocky ride.

    There’s not a dimes worth of difference….either way it’s the American worker who pays. The difference is only in the way the money is spent.

    I see you know as much about economics as you do philosophy.:p

    Hello again, DC:

    I'd be happy to philosophize with you on my skyrocketing gold and silver holdings.

    PS> If you care to look back, right here on this forum, I was recommending silver when it was $12. What's it now, almost $17?? I believe it is. Bwa ha ha ha ha.

    Again you have ignored the topic and responded to a bi-line.

    Hello again, DC:

    There you go again, with your stinkin liberal thinking. I own this post. It's MINE. I can change it if'n I have a mind to. It doesn't belong to the "world". I don't have to abide by the "worlds" rules about my post. I own it.

    And, I am NOT bi.

    No Demorcrat since LBJ has worried about paying for anything, except his kids' private education.
