No, that's only true in the alternate universe you've apparently created and populated with liberals made of straw. I invite you to join us over here in reality, where liberals believe in liberty and justice for all. That's ALL, mind you; not just a privileged few.

As the rest of the "new" world modernises America is seeing its standard of living being reduced and therefore the American people now require more government policies to assist them Look at one thing clearly.
George W Bush allowed China to get rich too quickly with the typical Republican way of doing business, the problem was and still is that fat and lazy America cannot compete with quick and easy Asia!
