I thought life was bad when I had to listen to Rush Limbaugh where I worked and I had to listen because I had no status at the company because I was a temp.

And that was before I found out what a hyprocrat he really was when he lost his hearing and did not tell anyone.

The Republicians have no ideas because they would like the world to be like those who thought the world was flat and if they ventured too far they would fall off the edge and the fear factor is what they relish.

And the fear that those who got a tax break under Bush II will see their taxes rise but it is it rise when they should not have gotten a break at all.

Of course the middle class did get a break but their break was probably like 10% to the over #200,000 crowd that got maybe 30% (of course I am only guessing), but that is the general idea.

Now there is the idea of health care being a privilege that is dumb when you consider communctive diseases could result in health care being a privilege, but can concertative people see past their noses.
