Ridiculous huh? They have no problem with the repub big wigs and ceo's robbing us blind and grabbing all they can before the shit hits the fan, but the idea of a poor person getting a welfare check drives them totally postal.

Stupid fucks.

2. & they refuse to believe that millions NEED that money to stay alive
And they seem to think that the poor are a drag on the rest of us, and they refer to them as, 'them people who don't even PAY taxes'.

And then there's the reagan fantasy of the welfare queen living in baronial splendor on monthly checks.

3. And don't forget today's version of reaganvision
Half built mansions in the slums of America that the government forced lending institutions to finance for people who could not afford them. More non truths by the right wing who scratches their heads in collective wonder when someone mentions the fairness doctrine.

Conservative Values; getting a bonus for failing, because you are a "businessman."

4. Allow 9-11 to happen, get promoted, screw up 2 wars, get promoted
Run a major business into the ground, or fail to find oil in Texas, get promoted, and a huge bonus on the way out.
