Tell us all how you would run a country with zero taxes.I would rather build a nation where you succeed or fail by your own hand than one where you take what someone else has earned and claim it as your own.
Do not forget that barely 200 years ago our forefathers bled and died to give us the right to live freely. Something which stands heads and shoulders above the rest of the world.
Remember that you have contributed to its destruction. Remember that you have hastened the collapse of one of the greatest nations on earth. Remember that you are the harbinger of the death of your very own freedom.

"A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the voters discover that they can vote themselves largesse from the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidates promising the most benefits from the public treasury with the result that a democracy always collapses over loose fiscal policy, always followed by a dictatorship. The average age of the world's greatest civilizations has been 200 years.
Great nations rise and fall. The people go from bondage to spiritual truth, to great courage, from courage to liberty, from liberty to abundance, from abundance to selfishness, from selfishness to complacency, from complacency to apathy, from apathy to dependence, from dependence back again to bondage."
So last night a distant family member on facebook and I got into a discussion and this is what he had to say. I blanked out an offending word he used. But this appears to echo what I am hearing from a lot of the Republicans I see posting on FB today and frankly is why I think the party is screwed.
"It's cool...but fucking we are doomed..Obama is the worst president ever! He has done nothing and will continue to do nothing ...I am pissed... Ok so the only logical reason you have is Scotus.... Not that he is fucking a terrible president and is doing more damage at a time we need a leader... Someone who can cross party lines.... He can't and won't and we will not recover... This was our last chance to get rid of Obama care... We can't afford this fucking moron... 95% of ni#%ers voted for him... 63% of whites voted for Romney ... Who is the racist?... No one ... Noooo one can say he is a good president... It was a time for a change... And we missed it.... I have never been so disappointed in our country... It wasn't even the dems that got him re elected... It was the blacks the Latinos that suck off of our fucking govt and the liberals that vote party lines...I could go on and on .... I'm just so fucking angry that so many people missed it... I mean that with all due respect"
Remember, it's not racist if 99% of the blacks vote for a black but it is if 99% of the whites vote for the white.
The GOP needs to be transformed drastically and kick out the religious nutbars and start going to fiscal Conservatism but I cant blame your relative for being angry

can we afford 4 more years of obstructionism?
"Fiscal conservatism" is religious/voodoo nonsense also, hate to break it to you. This is why the two are joined at the hip.
Until Conservatives/RW "Libertarians" start from scratch (a 3rd grade civics class would be a good start) you will always fail.
Whatever makes you feel better
I only saw one negative post on my facebook and it was just a "sigh". Lots of congratulations. I'd say about half my friends are republicans (probably more) but I don't know how many of them voted for Romney and I know that none of them liked him. If they did they sure wouldn't admit it in public. You'd have to be pretty crazy to get all upset about Romney not winning. I can totally understand not liking Obama (he's not going to rank as one of the best Presidents we've had) but Romney? That guy was a joke.
Your average republican is someone who hates 'socialism' and 'communism,' but has no idea how to define either word.
Your average republican is a Christian who has utter contempt for the poor.
Your average republican thinks that cutting taxes reduces the deficit.
Your average republican thinks that foreign aid and Public Broadcasting take up huge chunks of the federal budget.
etc.
Your average republican is a fucking idiot and hypocrite.
It just goes to show that racism is alive and well in America. I'm not saying that every Romney vote is a racial intentions. But I wouldn't be surprised if over half of the romney camp voted because Romney is white.
Yeah that's a lot of people... It might have not been the #1 agenda but I'd put it in the top 10.

Denial, not just a river in Egypt.
Typical liberal eltism crap. Just create false labels for anyone that disagrees with you.
Using your logic:
Your average liberal thinks money grows on trees
