health care he's a socialist.
It's the party-line. It's not about actions, but actors. If the action is performed by a Republican,
it's intrinsically better.
The other option would be having to think on one's own, and that's just too scary for a good 25%
of the voting base for either party.

Originally posted by leisurelyslothNo I'm consistent on all counts. I said she should stay at home and take care of the kids as she has been roundly supported by people who say that is the place for mothers. If it's good enough for the rest of us, it should be good for her too. With the travel issue, it is about who's paying for it. Was she not going to clean up government and restore ethics? As Republicans like to say, "If you can't afford the babies, quit having them."

You might be on to something here, Reverend. That would certainly allow Barack more quality time with the interns!
