"Hey, Obama is no worse than any of the other idiots in Washington"

Message Replied To ==========

President Obama has reduced the deficit more than any President since Ike.....

http://www.forbes.com/sites/rickungar/2012/05/24/who-is-the-smallest-government-spender-since-eisenhower-would-you-believe-its-barack-obama/==============================

but you and I both know those spending numbers (especially when you try to recast "slower increases in spending" as "lower spending") are misleading. Obama is a spender. This congress is a spender. The last guy was a spender and the last congress was a spender. The regress is long and predictable.

"If we want to resist the powers which threaten to suppress intellectual and individual freedom we must keep clearly before us what is at stake, and what we owe to that freedom which our ancestors have won for us after hard struggles.

Without such freedom there would be no Shakespeare, no Goethe, no Newton, no Faraday, no Pasteur, and no Lister. There would be no comfortable houses for the mass of the people, no railway, no wireless, no protection against epidemics, no cheap books, no culture, and no enjoyment of art for all. There would be no machines to relieve the people from the arduous labor needed for the production of the essential necessities of life. Most people would lead a dull life of slavery just as under the ancient despotisms of Asia. It is only men who are free, who create the inventions and intellectual works which to us moderns make life worth while."

-- Albert Einstein, Science and Civilization speech to the Academic Assistance Council, Royal Albert Hall, London, October 3, 1933
