Republicans ARE liberals when it comes to spending. The only time they're conservative is when they're campaigning. I'm pretty sure I've made that perfectly clear a number of times.
Actually, we've poured a ton of American taxpayer dollars into the country - the majority of which has ended up in the hands of corrupt government officials. Basically we've treated them to the same spoils the liberals are guilty of here.
It's a good thing that 2 wars, an economy in free fall, and a humanitarian crisis aren't bigger than party politics. George Washington was a very wise man.
I don't have a problem with what Reid said if I understand the context. Basically he was alluding to the point that a guy like Al Sharpton isn't getting elected in this life time but someone like Obama or Colin Powell certainly could. I'd like to thank everyone for getting all up in arms about reality because the media basically told you to.
As far as Eric's point goes: Eric's a friggin' retard.
