What's a Republican?

"There is a point on the Laffer Curve at which tax cuts on the top margin stop generating increased income, but we are nowhere near that point now"

Do you people honestly think that Americans are complete morons? Your supply side nonsense managed to QUADRUPLE the natonal debt during the Reagan years. And Bush's tax cuts caused reciepts to plummet for years.

Meanwhile, of course, the Clinton tax INCREASE did nothing to reduce tax reciepts (as would be predicted if we were on the right side of the Laffer curve), but they did lead to a balanced budget AND the greatest economic expansion in our history.

"Projection of American military might leads to peace,"

Ah yes. We see that in Iraq, don't we. War is peace.

You guys are a piece of work.....
