We heard applause for killing people...social security called a Ponzi scheme...and the idea of fixing our economy and jobs by LOWERING the corporate and wealthy tax rates.

Tonight, the GOP…Tomorrow, The President

Tonight and tomorrow will be very newsworthy politically, as we see the first GOP debate featuring Rick Perry and President Obama's jobs proposal.
