It’s taken 2 or 3 times for me to get you to admit your left leaning ways but in America that is permitted, just as it should be. Obviously you don’t know who I support because as I said before I’m a Conservative and John McCain is a moderate, which I consider worse than a Liberal because they are so wishy-washy. I have jumped on the bandwagon though but it’s because of his running mate, which I understand makes your blood boil. That’s ok because your guys make me sick at the thought they could be P &amp; VP, oh the horror. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;But you are wrong again, I do know what policies you support by reading your post and then your reply about who you’re supporting, which is obama, am I wrong?&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;As far as the obscene name calling I’m sorry that happened to you, we can have a discussion without going down that road but even though you weren’t obscene you did call me “absurd”. To be honest with you I did call you a, “LIBERAL”, which in my world is not a good word but I didn’t curse you, at least with normal cuss words. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;As far as your last line, Jesus said teach them to be fisher of men and they can teach someone else to fish, which means they will be self-sufficient and not being a burden on someone else or society. Do you really think he was telling them to catch fish and give it away? Interpret the entire Bible not just part of it. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;As far as McCain's tax cuts he advocating the same as obama is now, remember obama said since the economy is sluggish he won't rescind the Bush Tax Cuts. Now if it's bad to tax now why is it good to tax even more when things are better. I believe we are paying enough taxes now, our problem is not that the government is taxing us to little it's they're spending too much. Can you write an unlimited amount of checks on your checking account without having the funds in the bank to cover the checks, I THINK NOT? &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I've answered a few of your questions but so far you've passed on answering any of mine-hummm.</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">1911</dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 19 Sep 2008 00:00:14 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Sebelius Alludes To Race Factor; GOP Reacts</title><link>http://iowaindependent.com/?p=5627#comment-2436961</link><description>I don't know if anyone is paying attention to what's going on with the Markets today but if obama gets elected and then gets his way there will be billions upon billions of new government spending. Where will this money come from, let me educate you a little-the RICH-cannot carry the US all by itself so where will the extra money come from, you guessed it- you and me. We've heard this story before, you know the one, I'm going to give the middle class a tax break only to be told 2 months later that I've worked harder on this problem than any other problem I've ever had and we can't afford a tax cut so I'm going to raise your taxes. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Don't believe what they say, educate yourself on what they've done and voted for, only then will you know them and what they stand for. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;What does a democrat and a tax break have in common-------------------------------NOTHING--------------------honest discussions about tax breaks is not in their vocabulary.</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">1911</dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 18 Sep 2008 23:15:55 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Sebelius Alludes To Race Factor; GOP Reacts</title><link>http://iowaindependent.com/?p=5627#comment-2435751</link><description>Let me give you just one that's currently in the News, and by the way, I did call it right-You are a democrat, just look at your response. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;McCain attempted to rein in the corrupt Fanny Mae/Freddie Mack several years ago but who was the biggest obstructionist, you guessed it, the democrats (Barney Franks, Chuck Schumer, Chris Dodd, etc…), now that's not to say there were no Republicans (or RINO'S as I like to call them) as being part of the problem, but who was the NUMBER ONE benefactor of monies from those Companies, you guessed it, Chris Dodd, did I mention he's a democrat. Now who was the NUMBER TWO benefactor of monies from those Companies, you guessed it, barack obama, and did I mention he’s a democrat too. Do I need to go on &amp; on &amp; on? By the way, that #1 &amp; #2 rating is since 1989 I believe. Chris Dodd has been there for years so it's no huge surprise he's way up there but obama has only been in office for less than 4 years, how many long time Congressmen and Senators did he pass to get that honor, I don't know but maybe you do? Do we see a pattern here, I believe we do. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;#1. I love it when you people cannot stand to be called what you are, I am a Conservative and proud of it, why don't you people just come out and tell America what you truly stand for and that's "Liberal" and tell them "honestly" what that means, which includes being a Socialist/Marxist or the extreme being a Communist. If you’re ashamed of being a Liberal then maybe you should rethink your politics. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;#2. When you people start losing the argument you start calling the other person names and make lame statements like us being, "absurd."&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;#3. If the Framers of our Constitution were to come to life today do you think as a whole they'd believe we're following the Document they left us, my opinion is, "no they wouldn't, they’d fall right back into the grave with disbelief." &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;#4. Get the Government out of our Lives, return the power back to the states as it should be, and then we could move to the State of our choice. If you wanted to live in one that is ran by Liberals you should be grateful for the opportunity to do so, while I’d choose to live in one that’s Conservative, which would make me really happy. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Sticks and stones can break my bones but…never mind. Honest discussions only please.</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">1911</dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 18 Sep 2008 21:13:28 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Sebelius Alludes To Race Factor; GOP Reacts</title><link>http://iowaindependent.com/?p=5627#comment-2430651</link><description>I wonder way it’s always LIBERALS who keep the controversy going over “Race” in our Country and in the News. I believe it’s because it benefits them to keep the issue alive, which helps keep the races divided and a block of people voting to them. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;If Kansas Gov. Kathleen Sebelius has proof of racism as a whole she should talk about that but that wouldn’t fit her agenda because there is only one group of folks in our Country who are voting 90+ % for one candidate, any guesses which candidate that it and what race is voting for him.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I don’t see a persons color; I look at what a person does and what they do, are they a good person/citizen, are they a criminal, or are they a sleazy politician trying to keep us apart for their on agenda, only you &amp; I can decide that?&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;There will always be some type of racism is this Country but that racism is on ALL sides and ms. sebelius knows it, but as a whole when I walk down the street and meet someone from a different race we usually say things like, “hello, how are you doing”; we don’t avoid each other like the plague. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;It’s an issue perpetuated by one Party (democrat if you didn’t know) and they do it because if there is Race Harmony throughout our Great Country they’ll be the one on the losing side, and we can’t have that, now can we? &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Watch what they do and mean, not just what they say!!!!!!</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">1911</dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 18 Sep 2008 14:49:29 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Sebelius Alludes To Race Factor; GOP Reacts</title><link>http://iowaindependent.com/?p=5627#comment-2429431</link><description>You do need more education, that's for sure. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I'd like to know how many POOR PEOPLE have hired you and provided you with a REAL job that you were able to support your family on and your way of life. Everyone I've ever worked for had more money than me and I wasn't jealous of them for having it. If I wanted more all I had to do was work hard for it and hoped that some day I made it as good as them, instead of wishing the Government would take it away from them and give it to me. I don’t believe in a progressive income tax, I believe we should have a fixed tax rate, 10 to 20% on everyone and all companies but I’m afraid most liberals could not handle that because it’s just not FAIR for them to have so much and not pay more.  &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;If you have more belongings than a homeless person has then you are a hypocrite. If you have more then sell all of your possessions and join them. I'm sure they could provide you with a job, don't you?  &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;You might as well get over it-if everyone in Our Country has their money STOLEN from them by the Government just so everyone will have an equal share of the pie will there be anyone left for the Government to take the money from, I’m afraid not, what will YOU do then?&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Our Country was founded on freedom and we were not supposed to have a Nanny Government, you know, cradle to the grave mentality so many people have. How many Socialist Countries have to fail before you realize it’s not the way to go?</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">1911</dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 18 Sep 2008 14:20:51 -0000</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
