Terry...you think we are going to run from this?

Yes, Terry, we (most) Conservatives would repeal the Socialist programs of Medicare and Social Security...and replace them with something better!

This is exactly the point, these entitlement programs, started as small entities are consuming our whole budget and forcing the country into bankruptcy. And now the fools want to "Medicare" the whole industry! Tort reform, competition and direct patient involvement with payment (HSA's) would fix health care!

We have promised too much, entitled too many and are paying dearly for liberal giveaways to gather votes.

Remember when Bush tried to "reform" S.S.? There was no help, just a lot of demagoguery. Every time Conservatives have tried to institute a morsel of fiscal responsibility the liberals have dragged out some grandmother eating dog food.

Rich, you harp on tax cuts, but the problem is run away entitlement spending and unfortunately there is nothing on the horizon except bankruptcy (unless, har, har, har, the bond ghouls save us!)

Terry, at what point do you quit attacking the successful who provide the jobs and feed the coffers of our country and place the blame where it belongs, with the liberal politicians who buy votes in the name of compassion?
