Matt Wuerker for December 24, 2015

For anyone who thinks the Republican Party wants to get the Government off the back of the little guy, I offer three words:1. Terrry2. Schiavo’s3. Law

*And it’s perfectly OKAY to raise sales taxes.

*And give tax breaks to corporations.*Raise gas taxes, especially now that the cost of gas is soooo cheap.

Embrace war and guns, rescind ACA and call yourself Pro Life!

Marxist theory

Military spending is less than 5% of the budget. Unearned entitlements are OVER HALF of the budget.

Why was defense spending even listed when we already spend close to as much on things that are DESIGNED to generate no return, or advantage, for the government or its people. Unless of course you’ve already divided between “your” people and “their” people with “their” part being where gets the cash and the “your” part being where you cut checks for “their” checks.

At least paying for the military you get something for your money, or can we start using unearned entitlements as forward deployed dollars and call them due later with alittle military service.

the republican leaders have lots of evangelicals, but they don’t follow Jesus words.Jesus said care for the old,care for the sick and the children.Blessed are the peacemakers, Drive out those who practice usury.(make profit from others misfortunes.And above all treat your neighbor as you would yourself.if you have 2 coats, give one to those who have no coat, and care for those prisoners. there are many in prison who should Not be there.There are several versions of the Bible, so I may have said things not the way ask any certain version.

good summation, Matt.

Freedonia’s national anthem is pure cinema genius. Nine words.

Caligula, Crow Nobo: the ACTUAL mlitary budget, counting the “black box” that is mostly contracting or R & D, same thing anymore; is around $1.3 + TRILLION, way more than 5%, or 54% of “discretionary” spending.
