Where I give you my slightly quirky opinion, and you can give me yours, as long as you're man or woman enough to be civil and control your language.

About Me
- Joe
- I was born in Miami, Florida, the son of an Air Force officer, traveled the world, was saved at age 17, and have served the Lord since. That's me on the left and my lovely wife, Bonnie...the pretty one...on the right.
There Are But A Few Rules To Follow
1. Absolutely no foul language (including the use of asterisks). If you are not man or woman enough to control your language, you are not welcome here...go somewhere else.
2. I am not looking for strings of commenters arguing with each other, so confine your comments to the topic at hand and address your comments to me, unless you can be exceptionally gracious and polite.
3. Since this is my blog, I am the sole arbiter of what can be placed on this blog. My decisions are final and without recourse. All anonymous comments, unsigned, will be deleted, as will ad hominem attacks against me or others.
4. Within the scope of those rules, you may feel free to have fun here (I sure will). Sarcasm, wit, half-wit, nit-wit, parody, satire, puns (especially puns), etc. are encouraged.
FOUR PRINCIPLES THAT DEFINE TRUE CONSERVATISM:
1. Respect for The Constitution
2. Respect for Life
3. The Smallest Possible Government
4. Individual Responsibility
This blog is about my philosophy of government, which is a very conservative philosophy.
You are not required to agree with me (although you would be better off if you did).
I am biased toward conservatism, and make no apologies for that.
Freedom means not being controlled by the government, that being the very reason we declared our independence from Great Britain.

Government's job is not to provide things for people, but to provide the opportunity for people to persue the things they want via the vehicles of freedom and responsibility.

WHY I CALL HIM "PRESIDENT BO"
I call him "President" out of respect for the office. I call him "BO" (as in Body Odor) because his agenda stinks.
I also refer to him as our "Acting President."
I also refer to him as our "Acting President."

Joe - I may not be a Republican but I recognize some good stuff that he says herel
Thank God got that !
sh: He was a master communicator. We haven't had one since. Clinton came close, but was too corrupt to afford any believability.
Ylw: ??
Give the talented Charlie Pierce a read
"And who were the original heretics, at least in the modern political era? Who was it that nailed the Laffer Curve to the doors of the cathedral? It was Ronald Reagan -- and, elsewhere, Maggie Thatcher -- and I don't recall any great howls of Papist outrage from Sullivan back then, when everything the pope condemns today was just winding into its political strength."
May you be forgiven for propping up Saint Raygun.
This was they guy who sold arms to Iran under the table to finance something that congress wasn't willing to finance, thereby undermining our entire system of government.
He was the worst president we'd had until Dubya.
Ducky: I have read many of the criticisms of the Laffer Curve and not a one of them holds water because not one of them recognizes the increase in the tax base. They all assume that government income is a zero sum game, earning population-wise.
I neither want nor need your propping up.
What increase in the tax base?
The wealth goes to taxable enterprises like job creation?
Come on Joe, get real. It didn't.
It hasn't. It won't.
Ducky: It did, it has and it will. Couple it with significant deregulation and spending reduction, and we'll start reducing the debt instead of increasing it.
Joe, As a concept, the Laffer curve is not without merit. It's not Arthur Laffer's invention either. It's been around for centuries.
The only criticism is that neither Laffer, or anyone else, can identify where the curve peaks. No matter how low tax rates go, the "true believers" think we're always on the right side of the curve. That's the problem.
