The American dream has always been rooted in the notion that hard work and merit are the surest means to advancement. We are a nation predicated on the idea of equality of opportunity. But equality of opportunity does not mean equality of outcome. We must remind our leadership in Washington that the United States Constitution defines the federal government's role clearly and it doesn't provide for an expansive government which tries to provide all things to all people. We need to return to our core principles. With this in mind, I intend to focus on five core issues:
�Reasoned Debate and Rational Policies: We must move away from partisanship and single-party rule. Bickering and demagoguery benefit no one and only serve to disengage the public from political debate. We need a new approach.
�Economic Growth and Job Creation: We must focus on growing our economy and creating job opportunities for the unemployed and the underemployed. We need a business mindset in Washington.
�Deficit Reduction: We must control our spending and manage our deficit. The future of our economy depends on it. We need leaders with the political courage to take on the deficit.
�Strong National Defense: We must maintain our strength to ensure security domestically and stability internationally. We need legislators who understand national security.
�Taxation: We must fix our broken tax system to create a more equitable, more efficient approach. Reducing the tax burden will enable and encourage economic growth and recovery. We need new thinking on tax policy.

Let the Red Whlte and Blue flag wave over the platform of nothingness!

Call us when your cute little collection of provinces matters. Hey, it COULD happen!

What is your 'point'?
Take Back the Republican Party wrote:Well, RWE makes another thread into his own personal whinefest, instead of sticking to the facts. Gee, what a surprise!....LOL. You still don't get it. Pointing out how useless your posts are is a far cry from whining. I'm simply driving the point home of how badly you fail. You love to cry foul when you sh!t up a thread with your idiocy and you're called on it. Simply put, you're the fool here, and it's more and more evident with every failed attempt at belittling me or anyone else.

How do we keep it STRONG and still perform the deficit surgery he wants? I call these mutually incompatible goals.No doubt he'll do it by cutting research funding lol.
