    Proof that:

    A) The Republicans will skank-fight with anyone, including their own.

    2) The Republicans are too busy self-destructing to worry about regaining Americans' trust.

    Hey, do your own fucking work.
    Also, you're a raving lunatic. Ask anyone.

    "necessary" and "accountability" both being subject to wide interpretation. Hell, even Bircher boi O_T is fine with certain federal spending. I don't think you've necessary proved any liberal bona fides.

    Since you think of Glenn Beck in the same way, I'll take this in the context it is honestly delivered. Thank you.

    Concern for the poor, not in terms of harnessing their dependency on you in exchange for a vote, but a progressive overhaul of the system that makes social workers rich and keeps those in need down. And most social workers are, of course, liberal in vote.

    So, in other words, tear down the safety net/starve the beast. You've proved neocon bona fides, if nothing else.

    Because concern over social welfare is a liberal idea, not a conservative one. At its heart, conservatism is a belief that it's every man for himself.

    In 45 minutes, at two people per minute, they got 11 out of 90. That's a lot more than 0.00033. Or do your superior skills of deduction tell you they talked to all 33,000 students in 45 minutes?

    The last time Bill Maher said something funny the year started with a 19.

    If "starve the beast" refers to the bureaucrats that suck off the hog's tit, yes, 100 percent yes. Again, the real benefit (wink-wink) goes to government sucklings earning a government salary, at least in the cases of those who work with the less fortunate. They get a fat check, the best the poor gets is subsistence.

    No, it's not every man for himself. But private charity is the only constitutional help for the struggling. When the government gets involved, only symptoms get treated and the actual problem keeps getting bigger and bigger.

    So they talked to .00272 of the student body and got .122 of that number to sign it.

    Big freakin' whoop. It is statistically insignificant and doesn't prove the larger point Huckabee was trying to make.
