Re: The Republican Pledge and the Contract

Let me break the promises down...

1. We promise to take away your Social Security and give it to
deregulated criminals on Wall Street (see 2).
2. We promise to deregulate Wall Street again.
3. We promise to engage in new wars and foreign occupation.
4. We promise to lower payroll taxes by 5% while ignoring all other
taxes and raising the price of gasoline to the fair-market value of
$12 a gallon.
5. We promise to drill an oil well and install a high voltage power
line in your backyard while claiming eminent domain.
6. We promise to accept all foreign political contributions.
7. We promise to increase health care costs and let people die
agonizing deaths without pain medications.
8. We promise to increase the rate at which wealthy people become
wealthier, because 8% yearly increases during recessions are simply
not enough.
9. We promise to give amnesty to hard working illegal aliens so that
the wealthy may have cheaper labor.
10. We promise to take the 2 chickens out of the pot and let the
working poor have the soup that's left over.

Of course they have many more hollow promises, but who needs them?
