JTP sounds like a lot of folks who complain about everything from taxes to social security to how big government is. At the same time they think they are patriotic because they support the war in Iraq, and they want to build fences around our borders and hire thousands to monitor them. How do you think our country pays for these things? The war is costing over a trillion dollars. Paying taxes IS patriotic. It’s the guys like Joe who apparently doesn’t pay his taxes that are not patriotic. It’s the guys like Joe who apparently didn’t get his plumber’s apprenticeship license who is unpatriotic. That’s breaking the law.
Joe says Social Security is a joke. I’d like to see Joe ask the millions of seniors who depend on SS to barely get by if they think it’s a joke.
Just because some loon on Fox says something doesn’t make it right. It’s scary how many other Joe types are out there. Joe hears that Obama will raise taxes because talk radio says so and doesn’t bother to check for himself that he would actually get a tax cut under Obama. That woman the other day at a McCain rally says that Obama is an “arab” probably because her neighbor got an email saying so. I guess you can just say whatever you want and there are enough idiots out there that will believe anything. My father in law said Obama was born in Hawaii before it was a state so he’s inelgible to be President. The only problem of course is that Hawaii became a state in 1959 and Obama was born in 1961. It’s ridiculous.
