It's not the ultra-conservatives the USA has to worry about, it is the
Liberals (particularly the media, Democratic Leadership, and Liberal
Republicans.). these people want to keep everyone dependant on the
government, and make the US a part of a world nation that doesn't exist.
As an example I will use the current budget debate/media trashing:
Medicare spending in the Republican 7 year budget is 52% of the budget
(sidenote: The Republican National Commitee is sponsoring a $1,000,000
contest for people to PROVE that Medicare is less than 50% of the Republican
budget. It will be in Dec 12th's USA Today.), and is actually HIGHER than
Bill Clinton's proposal; yet, the media, President Bill Clinton, and the DNC
(can't remember if it is Democratic National Commitee or Caucas.)
claim(falsely) that the Republicans are CUTTING Medicare.
I don't believe that Congress will pass this Censorship bill, even if it
exists.
Getting off of my political soapbox.
Tom
