   Laura Ingraham is in for Bill O’Reilly tonight. Does it matter? Not really.’The Factor’ will still be the top-rated cable news program this Friday.

   21 years of experience in the military helps out a bit. My time as a Platoon Leader and as an XO(executive officer) also provided me with the opportunity of conducting several AR 15-6 Investigations.

   Mark2,

   That is a long time. All kidding aside thanks for your service, that is something to be proud of.

   Lol, I am pretty moderate. One of me friends calls me a NJ Republican, meaning in other parts of the country I would be considered a D. I think if all of us who post here sat in a room and had a few beers we might find more common ground than we think. That or we would all be a bloody mess. I come off here more from a right view because from a media and standard perspective I think the R’s do not get a fair shake and this is a media site. I think both sides have their good points and bad.

   My first steps are to burn my guns, my bible, and obtain as many gov paid programs I deserve.

    I used to be a Republican but they moved to far right for me. Even Reagan wouldn’t be accepted in today’s GOP. My cousin getting me to watch Jon Stewart years ago also helped in the transition.

    @Ninja

    I still owns guns and still have a Bible. I keep that Bible as a reference to remind Christians of some of the things Jesus taught.

    I do receive my retirement and VA disability check from the Government. I would like to think that I deserve that Government assistance…don’t you?

    Mark2,

    Some of the comments they have made recently (legitimate rape, for example) certainly have not helped. There is nothing wrong with wanting some responsibility with spending, though, but the argument needs to be framed in a way not to offend half the country. Not everyone who receives aid is lazy. That is where we start to disagree though: I think the President is proud of the government helping so many people, I think it is a bad thing that we have to help so many people. It just was not what we were founded on and was not what we were told growing up. Government used to be a safety net if something happened to your house, now many see it as the concrete in your house.

    Obama is sinking this country. The only question is can his propaganda wing successfully blame the right. Maybe, the corrupt, left wing, secular, so-called objective media can save the left.

    The consumer spending you see today is partly from government spending. A government running an annual debt of over 1 trillion! In our history we have never done this before. This leftest experiment will destroy this country. At some point the government will not be able to print or borrow at this rate.

    @ Mark2……………..I do believe you deserve that. I’m disabled. It’s all the people that abuse it and all other programs, and nobody from this administration confronts it, for the fear of loosing votes. I don’t know if you’re on pain meds, but in the same way people abuse it making harder for those that need it. I don’t have that problem, but I live in a small community.

    Financial suicide! You better hope the masses never wise up to the media and the left or you will never win another election!

    They had to revise those employment numbers already? Man this is going to be bad when this balloon bursts.

    Gas is almost 4 bucks a gallon in February! Inflation baby, that is what happens when you print trillions and borrow trillions more.

    Demand for fuel is low and supply is improving! Truly dark days ahead. This is what happens when you put David Dinkins in charge of the entire US economy.

    In a side note, a beautiful, intelligent 15 year-old girl who performed at King Barrack’s inauguration party is gunned down in the streets of Chicago. I have not heard a word of this in corrupt, left wing, secular, so-called objective media. I missed a few days so maybe they mentioned it. They don’t like reporting anything that shows what is really going on in Obama’s welfare America.

    @Ninja “…I’m disabled. It’s all the people that abuse it and all other programs, and nobody from this administration confronts it, for the fear of loosing votes”

    Then it’s a good thing that those Government programs are in place for people like you, me and millions of other Americans. Just because there’s fraud or some people that abuse the programs, that doesn’t mean we should do away with the programs. You go after those who are abusing the system.

    In the military, we are provided with BAH (Basic Allowance for Housing), separate rations pay, etc. There are lots of Military members who abuse and cheat the system to get more money by different methods. Does that mean that we should do away with the BAH and separate rations pay programs? Of course, they go after those who abuse the programs. It is hard trying to find all the program abusers in the military? Yes!!! Just like it’s very hard to try and find all the abusers in the civilian world.

    Big businesses abuse the government programs as well. Have you ever heard of Corporate Welfare? Food Stamps cost the Tax Payers about $80 Billion but Corporate Welfare costs over $100 Billion. Have you ever heard of subsidies for Farmers and Oil companies? You see, the Republicans love mention Food Stamps but never seem to bring up the “handouts’ given to their buddies.

    Why is that the Republicans do want to confront those programs? Because they don’t want to lose votes. You see, it goes both ways.

    @ Mark2…………..Don’t get me wrong. Don’t get rid of them all, just some more oversight. I live in a farming community, risky business, can’t control the weather and if you have livestock, no days off. At the same time some of the biggest farm land owners are famous dem voting people.
