Which tax cuts are now paying off nicely... It probably irks you no end that
the economy is turning around, in part because of those cuts, doesn't it?

If we are committing any, surely they pale in comparison with those
committed during Clinton's 81-day around-the-clock bombing of Serbia. Not
only did we kill hundreds if not thousands of innocent civilians (including
schoolchildren--remember the photos of charred little bodies with arms and
legs like sticks of charcoal, near a missile-struck schoolbus?) but
Clinton's deliberate destruction of civilian infrastructure (TV stations,
water supplies, power grids, etc.) was *by definition* a series of war
crimes. Of course, Clinton paid about as much attention to the Geneva
Convention as he did to any other legally binding agreement.

The three million jobs lost since shrub's reign began
aren't back yet.

You can always liven up an economy with defecit
pending. Democrats have played that game also,
Question is how much "livening" you get for how much
defecit spending. How much debt can the USA pile
on? Someone's got to pay, eventually. With shrub's
rules, it's the poor and the middle that pay, and the
rich that make off with the proceeds.

Yes.....Even if they hate Bush, they have to admit that he played the,
"tax-cut-card" at exactly the right time....Just when the economy was about
to turn around anyway.......

Yawn. Snore. The usual rogues gallery of illegal alien towelheads,
towelheads captured carrying arms against the USA, and general terrorist
towelheads.

Want my advice? Take these cases To The People. Tell everyone that
*you* think these nice folks deserve Johnnie Cochran and the OJ jury -
and that mean ol' George Bush wants them locked up. Be sure that you
inform every voter precisely about the sort of people that Bush imagines
is an "enemy combatant" and wants to detain at Gitmo. Keep pushing
until every American knows each and every detail. Don't rest until the
nation is ablaze with the issue.

Think of it as an intelligence test. Howdy Dean is praying you can pass
it.

Only in the vacant cavities of a liberal's "mind" could detention and
deportation of -illegal- immigrants be a bad thing.

Actually, I can see why liberal democrats are frothing at the mouth about
this... we are deporting their constituency. All those democrat votes lost
right down the hole...

Meanwhile, there have been so many illegal activities tallied by Lay,
Cheney, and Bush, it would take a federal prosecutor months just to tabulate
them all. Your double standard is a mile wide.

Ok, name one "illegal activity" of either Cheney or Bush, name ONE that's

Right, and Madeline Albright was the last person to negotiate with the
North Koreans--you know, in the old days, when we had the brains and the
balls to actually have a foreign policy. Clinton got the job done.

WHAT!!!!???? The North Koreams are still laughing their asses off at

Yeah, like planning to blow up innocents, kill Afganis & US troops. If you'd

The Bush administration has set up a fascist regime where people can be
detained indefinitely without access to attorneys-

PEOPLE?? What friggin people, those terrosit scumbags in Gitmo? You want
those pieces of **** treated like normal, law abiding citizens? Of WHAT
COUNTRY, ass wipe? They are terrorist scum and should have been shot or
worse! What planet did you come from?

They have turned our justice system into a joke, and not a very funny one

at that.

What "justice system", the one you leftists used to get OJ off ? What
bigger joke can there be than that? You trial lawyer leftist buddies are
just ****ed because the military will dispense with these PRISONERS OF WAR

Of course, the analogy to our so called "war on terrorism"
is ridiculous. For starters, there will never be a conclusion
to the current war... so the detentions will be indefinite, by
your logic.

Unfortunately for you, the numbers belie your rant. Who pays the
taxes in the US? According to IRS 2001 statistics, the top 50% of wage
earners pay over 96% of all income taxes. The top 10% pay almost 65%
(64.89% to be precise). The top 5% pay 53.25% of all income taxes. Top
50% earn 86.2% of all income, top 10% earn 43.11% of all earnings, top
5% earns 31.99% of all income. Again, the source here is the IRS
statistics for 2001.

Now, given that the top 50% are paying 96% of all taxes, and the top
5% are paying 53.25%, who has any chance of benefiting from tax breaks
but the people who are paying the taxes.
