Deficit? We don't have a deficit.
Edited on Tue Oct-19-04 04:22 PM by tjwash
Jack Kemp is a meathead. I swear the San Diego Union is so far out there they only deliver it to your house if you live on the right hand side of the street.

No reason to be alarmed over deficit

excerpt:

"blah blah liberal elitist's, blah blah democrats causing class warfare, blah blah we need more tax cuts..."

I wish that that dipwad would have never learned how to throw a fucking football, at least he would have stayed out of the public eye while he was sacking groceries and never became the shill that he is. Why is it that most ex athletes are loud and too the right?

3. What is sickening, and what the corporate press has been glossing...

...over, is Communist China is financing a lot of our debt. Official Chinese foreign-exchange reserves have tripled since 1999, to $450 billion in 2003, most of which are in dollar-denominated US Treasury securities.

6. While the PNAC talks about putting down any potential rivals,
( read China), it is nice to know that the inscrutable orientals are planning to dig a big hole for the PNAC crazies the old fashioned way: bankrupt them.

2. Being loud and macho is part of the jock culture.
It's the posturing, alpha-male homophobic "conquerer" mentality. It's the "Bring It On", ball adjusting, grown-up-adolescent behavior they have been consistantly rewarded for.

I didn't really play sports in high school. Does it show? Be honest.

4. Wonder how many millions Kemp has picked up from NFL retirement?
Hell,with that kind of cash who gives a flying fuck about a deficit?? His main focus would be those tax cuts which give him and guys like Limbaugh fatter bank accounts on the backs of working class.

8. He obviously forgot
a tax cut without a spending cut is not really a cut but rather a delayed tax hike
