Do you remember the Bush/Kerry debates?
President Bush's answer to one question made me cringe; not because it wasn't a truthful answer, but because it was most decidedly NOT the kind of pablum politicians use to get votes. But that is Bush... he's brutally honest.
Republicans care about giving everyone a chance at success. Democrats just want everyone to share deprivation. Democrats will try to con you into believing that you don't have to be responsible for yourself, and that the government can do it all for you. Here's a great example:
During the Presidential debates, the candidates were asked what they would do about unemployment. Kerry put on his best sad, hound dog face to mimic real human compassion, and gave the same line about how unemployment was no ones fault. He talked about creating some nightmarishly large and complicated bureaucracy to combat it.
That is what is called wh@ring for votes....
What did Bush say? He reminded us all that unless people develop in-demand skills, they will always be at risk of losing their jobs. The government can't change that. He also reminded people of the incredible community college system we have here; completely unique in the world, so adults can continue their education. Lastly, he reminded us that we all get tax credits for furthering our education, and companies often give bonuses or a higher pay level to people with upgraded credentials.
See the difference? Kerry didn't care about the people. He just wanted votes. He gave the answer designed to get votes.
Bush was completely honest. He gave the answer people don't want to hear. But Republicans don't want people to get dependent on government assistance because the system will always fail them. The government is not an employment office. The government does not have the power to fulfill our life dreams. That is where self reliance and individual initiative comes into play.
I see nothing wrong with your question, and see no reason why it should get yanked. I have made a similar point.
Conservatives are like the polite, well-mannered, impeccably dressed tennis fans at Wimbledon. Liberals are like the dirty, shirtless, obnoxious, out of control soccer hooligans at Wembly stadium.
Conservatives are athletes like Pete Sampras and Tiger Woods. Liberal athletes are badly-bahaved, drug-taking, borderline criminals types like Michael Vick and all the wife-beating, heavily-tatooed gangsta' rap-listening guys you see in the NBA.
Some people simply do not place emphasis on living in a civil society, and those people are Liberals. Those protests that illegally block traffic, burn flags, destroy property and taunt the police are exclusively a Liberal phenomenon. You never see Conservatives behaving so abominably.
