Ignorant? I know of things that the average person can neither comprehend nor see the value of that knowledge. I won’t be so arrogant as to say that this knowledge is mine exclusively, as it is accessible to all people, but most people detest such knowledge to the extent of making up their own truth to circumvent it.
I may have phrased a few things incorrectly. I should have said evangelical Christian (if even in name only). I have noticed that when an evangelical Christian gets into office that is one of the main arguments the Democratic party uses against them. I even heard a few outcries from the Democrats when Clinton started making it a point to be seen attending church services.
Permit me to go off on a tangent for a moment. I said in name only because I, like so many other people, believe that Bush is putting on a show to gain support among Christians. However, I will not deny that he has a strong spiritual life.
I do not support everything that Bush does. I do not support any of our presidents. I am not an anarchist, just a semi-interested observer. I have reason to believe that Bush is one of the leaders spoken of in the book of Revelation. The Bible may not be behind the war in Iraq, or even his presidency, but it is impossible to deny that the events tied to his presidency, along with certain aspects of Blair’s leadership and certain relatively recent events (study how the scene at the World Trade Center appeared, especially from the water, and then read the passage describing the throwing down of the harlot of Babylon) have been prophesied in Scripture (not just Revelation, but even the Old Testament end time prophecies).
Our ancestors could have prevented Bush from getting into office hundreds of years ago. I know what’s going to happen with Bush in office, and quite frankly I did not want to see it come this soon. However, it is too late to prevent it. I do not support Bush, nor do I oppose him. I just say step back and let him do his part so we can move on to the next part of the tribulation.
Furthermore, as I have been incorrect in my phrasing, so were you incorrect in your reading, unless you willingly omitted “…I’ve heard from” in the hopes that by the time people got to your post they will have forgotten that portion and remember what I said as “99% of people who hate Bush.” Be careful with the omissions, as it is equal to deceit, which will quickly lose you credibility in debates.
Finally, on the issue of tax cuts, large corporations pay millions in taxes. If they get a tax break then they get millions taken off, but they’re still paying millions in taxes. The average person pays less than $1,000 in taxes. Therefore, a tax cut for someone in the largest tax bracket would be less than $1,000. Even if a particular tax bracket pays over $1,000 they still get a significant cut. It’s just undermined by the fact that corporations save millions while the average person saves less than $1,000.
It’s similar to one person buying a $1,200 computer and getting a $60 rebate and another one buying a $2,000 computer and getting a $100 rebate. It may seem that the second guy made out better, but they both got back 5% of what they paid. If both would have paid $2,000 then they both would have recieved $100.
