Why do people hate Liberals?

[rightwinger]

. If by a "Liberal" they mean someone who looks ahead and not behind, someone who welcomes new ideas without rigid reactions, someone who cares about the welfare of the people — their health, their housing, their schools, their jobs, their civil rights, and their civil liberties — someone who believes we can break through the stalemate and suspicions that grip us in our policies abroad, if that is what they mean by a "Liberal," then I'm proud to say I'm a "Liberal."

Tell me about how JFK would be a Republican today

 

[Uncensored2008]

JFK would vomit over todays Republicans

JFK was good friends with Joseph McCarthy and worked closely with him to root out Communists in the American Government.

What do you say he would think of Dear Leader? How would he react to you Obamunists?

We know you "think not" and actually have no capacity for thought, merely spewing whatever the hate sites program you with; but that does not alter the fact that Kennedy and McCarthy were friends and allies.

{McCarthy established a bond with the powerful Kennedy family, which had high visibility among Catholics. McCarthy became a close friend of Joseph P. Kennedy, Sr., himself a fervent anti-Communist, and was a frequent guest at the Kennedy compound in Hyannis Port. He dated two of Kennedy's daughters, Patricia and Eunice,[52][53] and was godfather to Robert F. Kennedy's first child, Kathleen Kennedy. Robert was chosen by McCarthy as a counsel for his investigatory committee, but resigned after six months due to disagreements with McCarthy and Cohn. Joseph Kennedy had a national network of contacts and became a vocal supporter, building McCarthy's popularity among Catholics and making sizable contributions to McCarthy's campaigns.[54] The Kennedy patriarch hoped that one of his sons would be president. Mindful of the anti-Catholic prejudice Al Smith faced during his 1928 campaign for that office, Joseph Kennedy supported McCarthy as a national Catholic politician who might pave the way for a younger Kennedy's presidential candidacy.}

Ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country.

Ask not what I can do for you, ask rather what you can do for me !

In the 1950s who didn't? Being soft on communism was political suicide.
JFK would have loved Obama, just like most Americans

In fact, Obama just named his daughter Ambassador to Japan

Because the democrat policies of welfare through socialist programs of redistribution have nothing to do with improving the welfare of the people.

Johnsons Great Society programs were a continuation of JFKs policies and were sold as his legacy

ROFL

America's own Josef Goebbels - Edward Murrow was more than just "soft" on Communists, but attacked anyone opposing the Communists with the full propaganda power of the press.

But beyond the penchant of our current ruler for Marxism, authoritarianism, and internationalism, there is the issue of taxes.

Kennedy lowered them, Dear Leader jacked them up - on everyone.

So, that must mean that the Johnson programs resulted in less people classified as "poverty," right?

I see so you say give a man a fish so he won't learn to fish for himself. You say that improves welfare of the people.

Wrong.

Welfare programs that feed people by forcing them to avoid work to collect the welfare funds are not a means to improve welfare of the people. They are a means for ENSLAVING the people and degrading the welfare of the people.

As proof I submit, you as evidence.

Great Society programs included not only a safety net but education. jobs training and jobs placement

Also Medicaid and Medicare

He would vomit over today's Democrats, too.

But he would have worked to find compromises with both, to keep the country from being paralysed.

Millions of Americans have used government programs to escape poverty. There are few formerly poor Americans that did not use at least some of the programs

Show me one instance in history where a socialist system for anything has been successful. Punishing the successful while rewarding the lazy improves nothing. It only creates more lazy people. Even the communists have figured that out and replaced their socialist systems with capitalism.

Great society. What a laugh. More like morally bankrupt lazy ass society.

>>> jobs training and jobs placement

Bull shit. Where can I go to get "jobs placement?"

Bull shit. How did they do that? How did a government program help one person escape poverty? Everyone I know that escaped poverty did it with their own two hands. Everyone I know that is in poverty got there with the government's help.

Ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country. Yeah that statement is only for the rich republicans. For the democrats that has been replaced with tell us what your country can do for you, belly up to the trough for free money, the drinks are on the house!

It continues to amaze me how conservatives misrepresent that statement to meet their twisted agenda. "Ask not what your country can do for you" was not a condemnation of social programs but a call for public service. It was used to help launch the Peace Corps

In fact, in his same Inaugural address, JFK spoke of a public obligation to help the poor

Yes it was a call for the people to do something for the government because the Government had given much to them.
President Kennedy was a Conservative Democrat compared to his brother Ted Kenney who was a liberal.

What is the difference between a Conservative Dem and a Liberal Dem?
Conservative Dems fund the social programs with the money that is already there.
Liberal Dems don't figure in the funding, add more people on the programs and then kick the can down the road. Then they want to fix the funding much later on by very high taxes.

President Kennedy was more like Bush Jr. on taxes.
President Kenney wanted to reduce income taxes from 20-90% to 14-65%
He wanted to reduce the Corp tax from 52% to 47%.
He also said the soundest way to raise revenue in the long term is to lower rates now.

 

[Uncensored2008]

But there is a FAR greater percentage of Americans in poverty today than there were before Johnson's programs.

That's what you socialists call "success."

If you socialists ever try to "help" with infant mortality, you'll deem "success" as reducing the rate from the current 2% down to 35% - just as you've done with poverty.
