Subject: another thing...

"If you heard his speech tonight you would know that he promised the first bill he gets passed will be one on campaign reform. Unfortanetly anyone running for office at this point has to play the game in order to win"-tommy
============================================================
what does a whole series of parties that added up to millions of dollars thrown away in one night on lavish get togthers have to do with playing to win? Nothing, it is tribute payed by the same big corperations who pay tribute to the republicans for a job well done in protecting their intrest...if the democrats where for the people, they would say, give this excess money to charities for the poor, and do not through us lavish parties...they are in this for the same thing the republicans are,a fat cat life style and power...
============================================================
"Te Republicans speak of wanting less goverment in their lives and scare people into believing this is bad and that these programs will tax them to death while in reality they know the programs Al Gore and the Democrats have in mind truly serve and protect the average american and working class and poor . The Republicans and Bush lie telling us this Goverment involment is bad only because the wealthy iindividuals and powerful corporations they represent would have to give up some of their wealth and profit . Of course they don't want any goveremnt interfereance telling them they have to be fair to the averave working stiff or worry about trashing the enviornment when it means sacrificing profits or accumulated wealth."-tommy
============================================================
The fact is I speak for myself, and I research my facts from a wide variety of sources...you will not see me parrot G.W.Bush, or Al Gore for that matter like you do...so don't try to lump me with some piece of trash Govoner from Texas either to easily lable me and brush me away because I do not support your Demagoug...

...Now, if your Big Goverment works, why do we still have ghetto's and failing public schools, why do we have have a welfare class(and simply because it has shrank because both republicans and demorcats have dumped these people on the streets by changing welfare, doesn't mean poverty has gone away)...if Al Gore cares about the enviorment, why did he have the river flooded during the democratic primaries in new hampshier so his boat would get stuck in his photo op? If Al Gore is against guns, big tobacco, and pro abortion, why did he take money from prolife Lobbyists, the nra, and big tobacco when he was a senator..if Al Gore tells the truth, why did he try to say he grew up on a farm, invented the internet, and that love story was written about him and tipper? Ask Al Gore if his campaign finnace reform will do anything to help stop minies from the teachers union, the labor union, or the trail lawyers, or simply will it block republican forms of campaign finance?

As for being over taxed, you have not seen the end of it yet...we have failing public schools, social security, medicare, and a 14% health care coverage gap...yet 35% of the average american workers wages go to income and payroll taxes...we are not talking rich people here...the payrol tax alone effects your income by 7% directly, and a second 7% indirectly regardless of your level of income(that indirect 7% is not include in the 35% so as a matter of fact you can make that 42%)...Al Gore would fix our problems in medicare by increasing spending to medicare, then he would add new programs to cover senior citizen's pharmacutical needs, while doing noting about the drug companies price gouging...(they contribute money to his campaign...these notions will nearly double the cost of medicare...he has yet to declare what he is going to do about social security difinatively, yet we no he is against means testing, changing indexing, and privitization...what does that do but leave more spending hikes...Education, he calls for higher paid teachers and smaller class rooms...more spending, health care...socialized medicine has worked no where...not in canada, not in germany, not in briatian...more goverment spending, and lower health care quality is what awaits us down that road....

...well lets see, not talking into account all the taxes that we pay indircetly from our income, and the 7% empolyers have to pay to the goverment for there side of the payroll tax that we would recieve from income, as I said we allready pay 35% in taxes...in only reviewing sevral small points of goverment, with Al Gores proposed Ideas, I have probably just sent the direct tax burden over 50% for the average american...guess what, even if he is elected, that will never happen unless they take the majority of the house and senate...if they do take both house of congress and the presidency, and he taxes the shit out of us, the country will be FUCKED...but you no what, he would never do it anyway because he would ruin the demorcatic party, so I tell you now, what he is doing is lying...as president, he will take a step towards what he offered, yet come up short, in effect, wasting more of our hard earned money as we step closer to socialism, making us more dependent on a faltering goverment, and still offer us no gains to off set our losses...

...the fact is, we do not need more goverment tommy, this is bullshit...we need to reinvent the way we adress our social problems and clean the slate totally...Al Gore is not offering anything new, he is simply offering a one sided view of the old...instead of both a pile of donky shit and a pile of elephant shit, he just wants you to by the donky shit, which still stinks and lacks any nurishment...
