Yes we have. I held my nose, but I didn’t vote for McCain/Palin. Sorry, I’m sick and tired of voting in people who do the Left’s work for them. Whatever Obama was going to do, two or three Republican administrations run by men like McCain would have accomplished for him.
We couldn’t continue on that road either. We lose either way.
IMO, enough people don’t understand this principle to do anything about it.
This nation is going down. It’s going down no matter which party is in control.
We continue to move Left, under both parties. The only difference is the rate were moving that direction.
What major move to the right have we seen since Reagan? I can’t think of a single one.
We have less than half the Navy we had then. We have closed so many military bases, I’ve lost count. We make hardly anything here any longer. R^D has followed manufacturing to China. It now produces the fastest computer in the world. Our national debt is just under three times larger than when Bush II became president. The dollar is barely hanging on. The only thing saving it, is that every other currency is under downward pressure. In a matter of months, we have no ride to space. There is no foreseeable program to get back into space, or at best it’s a stumble and not a next step up. We spent something like $80 billion dollars on a space station, named it the “international space station”, and now can’t even get to it without sticking out our thumb and hoping the Russians will give us a ride. We cancelled our super collider in Texas. We’re bringing in more people from terrorist states, have surrendered our land, assets, and wealth to foreign nationals. We treat our citizens like they moving from cell block to cell block when they want to fly. Our kids don’t know how to read or make change when they leave high school, but they know about anal sex and probably how to put on a condom with no hands.
Tell me a vote for McCain was a good idea. Go ahead. LOL, look I don’t fault you at all. You do what you can, and you did.
I still have a terrible longing to see the nation I grew up in returned to good health.
I know you do too.
Take care. I appreciate the note.
No chance of that. For me, it was all about doing whatever I could to try and stop HIM. (To no avail.)
Great post as usual, FRiend. You take care too.
In spite of the writing on the wall, that became much more very evident after McCain gave the election to Obama.
What with McCain's people marginalizing her from the very beginning, and then Romney sicing his people on her to boot.
Even if Romney is the republican candidate and picks Michelle Bachmann as his VP to try to "satisfy" (read "fool") the tea party movement people, I still won't vote for him.
I don't think Bachmann would take the job offer though...
