    I never said or thought that.

    But you're a liberal.

  2. I'm the one for more balanced budgets, you're for tax cuts.

    I'm for both. And yes with proper spending cuts we CAN have both.

  4. With proper spending cuts the budget is balanced anyway.

    You're for tax cuts. I'm not UNTIL the budget is balanced.

    That says it all.

  5. The government has a spending problem, not a revenue problem. Letting the Bush tax cuts expire would be like trying to cure a drunk with a case of Jack Daniels.

    Also, extending the Bush tax cuts would leave rates as they are, not cut them. Don't even try to propagate that phony Pelosi nonsense that letting them expire isn't raising taxes.

    I would cut taxes even further, deeper than Bush did.

    That's how you revive a moribund economy: transfer money and decision making from the hands of society's most stodgy ans unproductive institution, the Government, onto the hands of its most effective institution, private enterprise, especially small-medium size business.

    Cut spending and then cut even more. Economy will jump up and start dancing for joy. Unemployment will fall back to the 4% level in no time. Government receipts will soar. Obama and his liberal, socialist cronies will cry :)

  8. You're for higher deficits then.

    I'm not.

    I don't know what you guys are, other than "Republicans," but I can tell you're not fiscal conservatives.

    Reduced spending leads to higher deficits?

  10. Now you're being intellectually dishonest. There's nothing wrong with reduced spending. This is all about reducing taxes before the budget's been balanced.
