The irony of liberals are that they whine about Republicicans and conservatives being heartless, cruel, stupid and so on. They then elect tyrants who take from them everything they can, and eventually complain about how they can't make a living, or a taxed into oblivion.
I remember Whoopie Goldberg in one of the Comic Relief events on this rant about how terrible Republicans were, and then only a few minutes later running around and complaining how much she pays in taxes.
As for Republicans having no "new" ideas, Zealous is correct. Then again, what His Excellency Barack (Idi Amin) Hussien (boy wonder) Obama is doing is nothing new either. It has been tried time, and time, and time again. And each time, it was a failure.
As it will fail this time around.
Zealous and avdmustang are prime examples of how when people got so accustomed to bootlicking, eating a sh*t sandwich doesn't seem that much worse.
