It's earned benefits, not "entitlements". It's investment in America, not "deficit spending".
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=389x7554582So merely being alive is now considered earning things?
True earned benefits are things like VA care for vets. I realize in the past you goons have tried to say that was socialism. Vets performed a service for our country and get that as part of their benefit package. Now you guys sit in your basements smoking Cheetos and eating dope and expect Obama to peel off bills from his stash to pay for your doctor visits. You have done nothing to earn anything. Now if you go out and get a job you earn whatever benefits package the evil corporation you work for gives to you. That would be earned benefits.
Funny you goons didn't like it when Bush invested heavily in America.

2. Ask George Lakopff about this. No one in DC seems to pay any attention to his advice.
We MUST frame the debate and stop allowing the repukes to do it every single f**king time!!
Here we go again "frame the debate". If your ideas and thoughts were good ones you could sell them on principle alone no need for catch phrases and misleading terminology. I don't recall conservatives ever having to repackage their ideas.
