Paul Ryan will make Granny pay more for her healthcare while handing people like Mitt Romney millions in tax breaks.

Federal debt is $15 trillion. Total debt is around $56 trillion. How did the federal debt roll down into your mortgage?

Was that a voluntary "contribution" you made?
No?
It was a tax.
So, by your argument anybody who's worked and paid taxes is then entitled to welfare.
That's why they're called "entitlements"!

Wow! That lie keeps coming back like reflux from a bad enchilada. The fact that you right wing whack jobs keep forgetting is that the toxic loans that infected the financial system were made by mortgage brokers who were outside of any regulations that applied to chartered banks under the FDIC who were the only ones affected by the CRA.

No one was forced to make any unsafe loans by anyone.
You're a goddamned liar and a total idiot.

No, you can never define what a "real" conservative/liberal etc is. These are self identified associations and though you may claim that Leo doesn't act like a moderate, it would be foolish to claim Leo is not a "real" moderate.

Doesn't work we all see the post and know that it is true that Obama promised to cut the debt in half. If you want to be a reality denier, your problem.

Looks pretty likely that Allen West is losing to Patrick Murphy, who I would have liked for my district, we will likely have Lois Frankel, this district has always been Democratic.
Did you see Jeb getting testy with Alan Grayson? Priceless.
The pick of Ryan will cost Mitt Florida, Ohio and PA.

SS and Medicare have always been sold to the public as a contribution that would guarantee future benefits. As you correctly note, both are taxes that fund current benefits and result in no vesting of future rights. Politicians of both parties should admit this.

Sorry Douche, you still don't get it, something for nothing, typical democrat policy. The dems didn't care if the unqualified could pay the loans back, it was reparations:
The Government-Created Subprime Mortgage Meltdown
by Thomas J. DiLorenzo
The thousands of mortgage defaults and foreclosures in the "subprime" housing market (i.e., mortgage holders with poor credit ratings) is the direct result of thirty years of government policy that has forced banks to make bad loans to un-creditworthy borrowers. The policy in question is the 1977 Community Reinvestment Act (CRA), which compels banks to make loans to low-income borrowers and in what the supporters of the Act call "communities of color" that they might not otherwise make based on purely economic criteria.
The original lobbyists for the CRA were the hardcore leftists who supported the Carter administration and were often rewarded for their support with government grants and programs like the CRA that they benefited from. These included various "neighborhood organizations," as they like to call themselves, such as "ACORN" (Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now). These organizations claim that over $1 trillion in CRA loans have been made, although no one seems to know the magnitude with much certainty. A U.S. Senate Banking Committee staffer told me about ten years ago that at least $100 billion in such loans had been made in the first twenty years of the Act.
So-called "community groups" like ACORN benefit themselves from the CRA through a process that sounds like legalized extortion. The CRA is enforced by four federal government bureaucracies: the Fed, the Comptroller of the Currency, the Office of Thrift Supervision, and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. The law is set up so that any bank merger, branch expansion, or new branch creation can be postponed or prohibited by any of these four bureaucracies if a CRA "protest" is issued by a "community group." This can cost banks great sums of money, and the "community groups" understand this perfectly well. It is their leverage. They use this leverage to get the banks to give them millions of dollars as well as promising to make a certain amount of bad loans in their communities.

<quoted text>It is a GREAT thing that we will talk about both Medicare and health care. Bring it on, because as the ill effects of ObamaCare--like decimating Medicare Advantage--are brought to light because of the addition of Ryan to Romney's ticket, the media will HAVE to report it. Beginning with WHY THE OBAMA REGIME DELAYED AXING MEDICARE ADVANTAGE until AFTER THE ELECTION.
Just a couple of weeks ago, I had a senior--who turned 80-- tell me how great his Medicare Advantage plan is and how it is saving him money each month. He has no idea how his plan is going to go away in 2014. Nor do the many seniors who are going to get DUMPED from MediCARE to MediCAID because of ObamaCare.
It all needs to be reported, because it hasn't been.
Bring it on.
