Iraq.

Healthcare.

The existence of the US auto production sector.

Pretty significant. I guess there are some people that are not impacted by Iraq, healthcare and the auto industry. But probably not many.


You think those are social issues?



Did I say that?


You quoted a conversation about social issues where the Democrats had made changes and then responded with that list.

Did you accidentally quote the wrong thing?

Someone is. Not me though.

And for good measure.

Being right of center doesn't mean that someone is a fiscal conservative.

But there are still significant differences between the two, especially on social issues.


Myth. Both parties have recently had both houses of Congress and the Whitehouse.

What changed?

Almost nothing. Certainly nothing significant.





Just because nothing changed doesn't mean they're the same. You're being obtuse, as usual.

They, as a whole, differ on - abortion, retirement funding, corporate regulations, privacy rights, gun rights, gay marraige, what to tax and how much, what spending to cut and how much, what to spend on and how much, and a plethora more issues.

There are a million positions on the fiscal scale where I could be right and exactly one where I could be wrong. Are you arguing that Obama occupies that one exact position where I would be wrong?

If you say yes, you're in for an uphill battle based on the fact that you haven't been able to come up with one single fiscally conservative thing Obama has ever done.

Obama's plan for the payroll tax cut extension actually paid for the tax cut.

The single most fiscally conservative thing the government could do is to allow the Bush tax cuts to expire. Next would be to cut military spending by about a third.

And how many of those things did the Democrats do when they were in charge?
