Liberal Myths Debunked: The Defecit
November 01st, 2006 | Category: Wackadoodle liberal lies
Friends,

....

A defect is like you and me borrowing on a credit-card, or perhaps taking out a mortgage to buy a ranch. Liberals get upset because they don’t think America can afford to pay off these small debts, of course they are wrong. It may be that we don’t ever need to pay off the defect for the simple reason that when the Rapture and Tribulations begin, there wont be anybody left to pay back!


Every Republican knows that having a slight deficit is a very healthy and natural thing for a huge country like ours. The reason why liberals are talking this down is because they have a negative approach to life because they don’t have God in their hearts! Most Christians agree that the Rapture is coming, so why not just borrow money now? It’s great! i’m going to get a loan tomorrow!

We Republicans like to call this new economics “Rapturenomics”, because unlike Clinton-era financial planning, we conservatives like to base our financial policy on all available information. George W. Bush regularly consults preachers and churchmen in addition to the so-called economists, and the financial results speak for themselves.

....

The Defect is just great – borrowing money not only makes us richer, it creates work for America’s financial sector – perhaps the single biggest contributor to our gross domestic product (GDP). It also allows us to finance our improved armies and fight the war on terror.

What use is money in the bank when the End-times come? What we need are guns and lots of them! Liberals call it Debt, but we Republicans recognise it as other nations’s desire to invest in our booming economy.


The simple fact is that if George W Bush decided that it was time to reduce the national debt he could do so in a moment. We fought and won the war on terror - paying off a bank loan is nothing compared to defeating Saddam and Osama. America is not “addicted” to borrowing, like the liberals claim. We could give up any minute if we wanted to, it’s just that we dont WANT to reduce the defficit, because it’s working out just great for us. Liberals ignore all the economic benefits that the defecit brings.

Liberals keep shouting about the “Defect”, and if we didn’t have God’s reassurance that everything was going to work out okay then we Republicans would be worried too, but the simple fact that God is in charge of the economy, and America is doing better than ever.

Yours in Christ,

Tristan J. Shuddery

4. No, sadly, it is not
Some people actually think like that. I left a post for the OP ripping them. Just read more of the website, as there are Halloween/satanist claims, utter nonsense.

6. did you check back for his 'answer'??
Typical liberals resorting to ad-hominem attacks instead of dealing with the issues. You claim that my article is full of inaccuracy, however you have failed to state a single flaw with my argument.

It’s like the climate change dispute all over again. If you want mainstream America to take you liberals seriously, why not come up with some facts to back up your outrageous position?

We should be familiar with this pattern now: Democrats always resort to scare tactics just before the elections. We Republicans are the party of calm reassurance and common sense.

5. Rapture
When this event becomes a non-event the chickens will come home to roost for those goofy enough to believe this crap.
