We have spent well over 7 trillion dollars on the War on Poverty. Screw paying for it, when are we going to have an exit strategy. Lets see the Democrats got us into this war back in the 1960's, some 40 years ago.....so before they go about finding an exit strategy for Iraq, perhaps they can find one for this war first, especially seeing how they have gotten us into it, with no clear solutions, nor any new ideas other than spending more money.
Here is a novel solution, since so many of you liberals like to hark on about us conservatives and Republicans supporting the war in Iraq, how about we pay for that, while liberals and Democrats can continue to fund the War on Poverty.
dmk Conservatism, I repeat is not an ideology. It does not breed fanatics....But if you want men who seek, reasonably and prudently, to reconcile the best in wisdom of our ancestors with the change which is essential to a vigorous civil social existence, then you will do well to turn to conservative principles -Russell Kirk- |
