Freeper thinking 101
(Some examples of freeper comments/infighting/solutions(?) on, Bush reaffirming his pledge to cut the deficit in half):

An income tax cut to between 15 and 25 percent will help get us those 1 to 2 trillion dollars needed to cover Social Security reform, if the Shameless Ones don't find some other use for it.

The first taxes that have to go are the income tax, social security tax, and property taxes. Anything that penalizes people for earning a living or investing in a home is destructive.

If they would simply freeze all spending for a decade, we'd have a large surplus within a few years.

Save Social Security BY;..
Reducing the entire federal government by HALF...
Use the expenditures(money) for Social Security..
Then go through Social Security recipients with a means based program to allow ONLY destitute old people to recieve it.. all others dropped like a hot rock..

(Now fow a few of the smarter, somewhat reality based Freepers):

Yup. He's a bald-faced liar. He wouldn't know "strict discipline in spending" if his hand was held while watching a "Schoolhouse Rock" segment on pinching pennies.

This is prima facia evidence he's NOT, that's N-O-T, conservative. Ditto his anti-American "amnesty" scheme.

He pushed for a 40% raise in Education spending. And this bloated Medicaid Bill, farm bill etc.. etc.. etc... The list goes ON and ON and ON. He is DIRECTLY responsible for a good portion of this huge spending and we should all condemn him for it. No clue why conservatives don't howl over this. We are getting too fat and lazy ourselves.

If he doesn't slash and burn spending in his next term I swear I will never vote for a Republican Presidential candidate again (unless a Reagan comes along).

He has a veto pen - use it! Like Sanford of SC!

Bush proposed $1 billion for hydrogen. Bush proposed $15 billion to go to Africa to fight AIDS. Bush proposed a $110 billion Farm bill, the biggest ever. Bush proposed a senior prescription drug benefit that was originally promised to cost $440 billion over 10 years, updated to $524 billion before the ink was even dry. These weren't things Congress pushed on him - these were very much his own ideas. I hate to say it, but he's outspending Clinton by a wide margin - and these aren't defense-related expenses, either.

2. good one here
I guess the foreigners have quit buying bonds, so he has to do something before the dollar collapses. He may be able to jawbone this for a while, but without follow through he's headed for Hoover revisited.

6. Don't you know? We don't have to pay any taxes, because everything the
government does is free and they don't need to take our money. Damn pigs, trying to pay for stuff we don't need, like education.

Oh, Freeper logic. Maddening, and yet, you just have to laugh at it.

7. Hey, freeper conservatives:
YOUR CONSERVATIVE REPS ARE PUSSIES! They're letting the bush republicans walk all over your values. Stop voting for them! Run for office! Kick out these fucking freaks!

At least if we dems were in power, we wouldn't be running a deficit. With them in power, we have a huge deficit AND unchecked big-government spending. I don't see why you would vote for that, but you did. And you'll continue to be trampled on. Take your party back!

9. We would be all over a fellow Democrat
