    Many social programs are nothing more than plundering the responsible to prop up crack smoking lazy bums. Those who want government subsidies are not true Americans. Go read the "Federalist Papers". Madison, Jay, and Hamilton would have been shot dead, burned, and had their ashes scattered had they argued for modern government. Radical liberal government is what the founding fathers and war hero's died for trying to escape. Quit defecating on their graves.

    This man is an ass.

    Obama is supposed to fix in eight years what took Bush eight years to blow up.

    I dare then to run on the economy. They are the heartless madmen who don't like social programs. They hate health care reform because the HMOs line their pockets with gold.
    They do the same thing over and over and expect different results.
    What do you want from a redneck?
