"Communism has never come to power in a country that was not disrupted by war or corruption, or both. " So we disrupt several countries by war (Iraq & Afghanistan) and allow many be disrupted by their corruption as well as ours (Blackwater & Haliburton).
"Conformity is the jailer of freedom and the enemy of growth." Yet Republicans believe that if you don't conform to their ideology, you're a traitor (even when the USA PATRIOT ACT attempted to undermine the Bill of Rights)
"I think this is the most extraordinary collection of talent, of human knowledge, that has ever been gathered at the White House - with the possible exception of when Thomas Jefferson dined alone. " Yet they think Bush was a great president (and the best speaker ever - according to FOX)
"If a free society cannot help the many who are poor, it cannot save the few who are rich. " Compared to the new Republican motto "If we can't make the rich richer, why should we give a damn about the poor?"
"Israel was not created in order to disappear - Israel will endure and flourish. It is the child of hope and the home of the brave. It can neither be broken by adversity nor demoralized by success. It carries the shield of democracy and it honors the sword of freedom." When he said that Israel was just a teenager; everyone changes as they grow up. He might see things differently now.
"It is an unfortunate fact that we can secure peace only by preparing for war. " Preparing for war is different from going to war at the drop of a hat. Besides, do we have to spend 41.5% of the entire planet's military budget. We spend more than the next 14 countries put together.
"It is a paradoxical truth that tax rates are too high and tax revenues are too low and the soundest way to raise the revenues in the long run is to cut the rates now ... Cutting taxes now is not to incur a budget deficit, but to achieve the more prosperous, expanding economy which can bring a budget surplus." Regan raise taxes, Bush 1 raised taxes, taxes were a lot more in decades past. Taxes go up and down depending on growth, stagnation, and inflation. Bush 2 thought spending trillion$ while cutting everyones taxes would make us rich. How's that working for you?
"Lower rates of taxation will stimulate economic activity and so raise the levels of personal and corporate income as to yield within a few years an increased – not a reduced – flow of revenues to the federal government." See Above.
"A tax cut means higher family income and higher business profits and a balanced federal budget. Every taxpayer and his family will have more money left over after taxes for a new car, a new home, new conveniences, education and investment. Every businessman can keep a higher percentage of his profits in his cash register or put it to work expanding or improving his business, and as the national income grows, the federal government will ultimately end up with more revenues." Giving a $1000 tax cut, but raising my medical, gas & food expenses by $3000 doesn't end up on the positive. Besides, Bush did it & we went from a plus under Clinton to a huge negative after W.
