Hell Yeah, the rotten leftist mainstream media successfully corrupted the electorate in the '06 Congressional Elections.
Could you possibly disagree with my intended-to-be objective characterization of the two parties' positions on those issues?
You are sort of right that I left out medical care. I covered it indirectly in referring to REGULATION/INTRUSIVE GOVERNMENT.
On MEDICAL CARE, most Dems favor a Canadian style "single payer system", where the government pays for all, but all private care is actually FORBIDDEN. Republicans range from "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" to programs like medical savings accounts. The sure thing among Republicans, though, is a free market solution.
When all the facts about the horrors of the Canadian system are known, do you really think people would support it?
The consistent scenario is that DEMOCRATS GET ELECTED BY MASKING AND COVERING UP THEIR TRUE AGENDA--WITH THE COMPLICITY OF THE MEDIA, while REPUBLICANS GET ELECTED BY MAKING THEIR TRUE POSITIONS KNOWN TO VOTERS.
I challenge any Dem supporters to DENY or DISPUTE that logically/factually.
Just look what goes on here. All the Dem voters are ashamed/afraid/whatever to show up and discuss issues--any more than brief bits of inane sarcasm. It's the same on the national stage.
