1. I'd love to agree with you but the goofy RW ideas never die
they get renamed and some new PR and come back over and over.

2. No, voodoo economics is alive and well.
We're the ones who are dead.

3. Don't I wish.
I just saw a bunch of idiots on CNN being interviewed saying that they are going to vote for McCain because they are "conservatives" and "believe in small government" and that whole rigamarole.

This is a philosophy that has been debunked as thoroughly as the notion of the moon being made of green cheese, but just about half of us STILL believe in it.

4. I equate the Reagan revolution with Voodoo Economics
One thing Poppy got right - trickle down is truly unscientific, and very voodoo.

7. Doo-doo economics is more like it.
Bu$hco has bankrupted this country and we find ourselves, now, face-down in a steaming, reeking coil of cack.
