- Gave amnesty to 3 million illegals - Only liberals do that right? a Conservative would've sealed the border and deported every single one of them, right?

- Increased taxes - Only liberals do that right? a Conservative would've eliminated all taxes.

- Said deficit spending during a recession was good - Only liberals do that right? a Conservative would've balanced the budget and cut all social programs immediately.

Folks, you've been duped by both parties. There are no conservative/liberal politicians. The only person politicians care about is themselves and whoever pays the highest bribes, sorry, they're called lobbyists these days. Every single working American and small business owner is left to his/her own to survive.

Stop calling each other names and figure out a way to develop a viable third party so we can kick all politicians out and really do something that benefits the majority of the population.

My .02 cents.

Are there any conservative sites on the internet? Does Google link to them? Or only Yahoo

Did you get that out of his sons book???

There is no proof he had Alzheimers at that time.

Many qualified people have stated that from direct observation and from seeing footage of him that he had varying degrees of the symptoms of Alzheimer’s.

There is a chance that there may be hard evidence but that it is sealed for a period of time after his presidency. When you consider what the Clinton impeachment put the country through, think what a mental competency challenge would do.

In an aside, how would you like to have your name remembered/associated with some brutal syndrome or disease?

Physicians diagnosed Reagan with Alzheimer's approximately five years after he left office but the date of the onset will likely be pondered by political historians and medical experts for years to come.

But the facts also show the notion of trickle down economics started this clusterfuck.

To me the main reason we have lost so much is that people dont pay their fair share. Corporations pay less than I do on taxes by offshoring profits.

The bottom line for me is that its not the republitards or the demicraps that are ruining this country. and certainly not a President with a 4-8 year lifespan that really only serves to deflect observation from the real problem.

Lobbiests, they have been running this country for quite some time, right into the fucking ground.

Our tax code supports an army of accountants and tax lawyers. A tax code that changes every couple of years. With 100,000 people looking for any possible loop hole, they will find it if there is one.

Like the Terminator, that's what they do. That's all they do.

And incidentally, that's how a national health care bill ends up being 2000+ pages. One "or" where there should have been an "and" and you lose 5 billion dollars in tax revenues(hypothetical scenario). Reverse that and an industry could be crushed.

That is why Herman Cain is full of shit (i.e. a politician) or painfully naive. His call to make all bills physically small (number of pages), especially coming from a former CEO of a corporation that would have hundreds of tax lawyers as well as litigation attorneys who take care of law suits and other legal matters, defies the imagination. A bill should be as big as it needs to be, 3 pages or 3000. It depends on the complexity of the legislation.
