Article.

Did they really need to waste money with a poll on this subject? Nobody in the MSM is smart enough to figure this one out on their own?

People are worried about the deficit, but don't want cuts to eliminate it to affect them. Just a shocking, shocking story.

It's funny that this country does so many things based on "think about the children", yet when it comes down to make serious sacrifices they aren't willing to step up and live a little bit rougher of a life to give their kids a better future.

I for one think we could do with a whole lot less spending on Homeland Security bullshit as well as the long-failed War on Drugs.

Legalize drugs and dump Homeland Security and we'll be flush in no time.

I could get behind that, although I still want welfare gone.

Assistance is fine. A means of existence is not.

Oddly enough, from the dude whose family was the closest thing to royalty we've had in modern America.

If only. There's still the large problem of rewarding people for being leeches.
