Well, as you probably suspected I was mostly trolling for hypocrites, but I've tended to agree with the ACLU much more often than I disagree with them. Now that the ACLU seems to be (however slowly) coming around on the second amendment they just might see a check from me someday. After all, being able to legally secure the means for the defense of one's life and property is a pretty fundamental civil liberty.

They're called the Bush tax cuts, not the Obama tax cuts:

So why don't you add Obama's numbers to the deficit chart? Of course we all know the answer to that question.

Same tax cuts in place, same numbers.

Now that we know the tax cuts don't work, it's almost ludicrous to suggest that they be extended (again), or, worse, made permanent. Republicans who support those tax cuts are puppets for the mega-rich. Until that changes, I'll keep voting for the less of two evils.

I just enjoy pointing out the hypocrisy of those on the left who were ready to bring Bush to trial for his "war crimes", but are going to line up to re-elect O'Bama, even after he's run the war pretty much exactly the way Bush did, only more so. The prison camp at Guantanamo Bay was page one news at the New York Times, day after day, for months, even years on end when Bush was the president. Now that O is in power the outrage is forgotten. Obama promised to close Gitmo in order to get elected, now it's clear that he's not about to close the camp, now, or ever - as long as the war goes on. The fuckers that were all worked up over Gitmo couldn't care less now that their man is in charge.
Cheers and beers bro.

DEAD WRONG. Same tax cuts in place with spending off the charts. Deficit now counted in trillions, not billions.
