Cos sometimes folks can't see the wood for the trees, they just think they can

Now run along before you become embroiled in a 20 page debate on rioting and poor depraved people who are disadvantaged and can't help looting

Noooooooo! I'm running, I'm running!!!!

Wow, quite a clash of nations here

Just remember:

Blessed are the flexible, for they shall not be bent out of shape.

All I have to do is look at the MBttUK board... there was actually a thread on this subject a couple of years ago.

Nah, they'll just fold under the pressure

“This is an excuse. The budget deficit is an excuse for the Republicans to undermine government plain and simple. They don’t just want to make cuts, they want to destroy. They want to destroy food safety, clean air, clean water, the department of education. They want to destroy your rights.”

This woman is nuttier than a Mr Goodbar.

Not nutty at all. This is what 'deregulation' will ultimately lead to.

I've been hearing an awful lot of politicians talking about 'rights' lately but I'm confused as to exactly what 'rights' they are talking about.

A lot of the 'rights' that have been talked about are to my mind 'priviledges' and I hear nobody mentioning anything about the 'responsibilities' that go hand in hand with the 'rights'

She's 100% correct. There's no responsibility in what the Republicans are doing, nor even an attempt to propose cuts that are rational and will minimize harm. The only word I'd choose differently is "opportunity" rather than "excuse".

You're not an American and couldn't possible hope to understand life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

I think she's absolutely spot-on. They do want to destroy.

Thank God! I'll stick with my simplistic aussie viewpoint anyday.

Oh and live a life of of liberty and happiness without banging on about it every 2 minutes.

You weren't invited anyway.
