D-1, I think they look at it as a “game”. A power game, where no matter who wins, both sides win. One side wants to take us to communist hell on the express elevator, and the other side wants the slow, riverboat ride. But ultimately, the destination is the same.

Every Republican? No, of course not. Every Dem? No, again, I still do believe there are some sane folks over there, but their voices are totally drowned out and squashed.

I’m not a class warfare guy, but for the most part the people that run both of these parties are very wealthy - they have what I call “F-You Money”. They do what they want, they go where they want, and they can live any way they want. And they don’t give a DAMN about what we say or think of them, ultimately.

They no longer believe themselves to be Public Servants. They see themselves as our Supervisors now, above us...separate to and unequal from us.

But they’re not the folks who do the living and the dying down here on the ordinary level like the rest of us.

They’re not touched personally by the economy that they themselves helped to f*** up with their stupid unworkable ideas and half-baked Ponzi schemes.

They’re not touched personally when gasoline goes up to 5 dollars a gallon, and your gas credit cards get maxed out and shutdown because you drive 70 miles a day to/from work.

They’re not touched personally when food prices triple in as many months, and you have three, four, five kids to feed and clothe.

They’re not touched when home prices fall through the floor, and that house you bought as an investment, your BIGGEST investment, is now worth less than you paid for it.

They’re not part of US. Neither side.

And when us little guys, the dumbasses as they see us, when we occasionally have the temerity - and throw a “temper tantrum” as one of their own derisively put it - to try to elect one of US, like a Herman Cain, or a Sarah Palin, BOTH sides turn their snotty, condescending smiles into sneering fangs-bared rage at us for daring to think that we ever actually had a say in how OUR OWN government should work.

Loathing? That word doesn’t even begin to scratch the surface for what I feel for these scumbags.

We weren’t born to serve their needs. God made us for a purpose, His purposes, and I am sick and tired of being used, manipulated, coddled, bullied, threatened, coerced, cajoled and otherwise bullsh*tted into serving their political game needs.

I’m not the best Christian man you’ll ever talk to...I’m not even a “good” Christian man...I’m just an American Citizen, a working slob with too many bills, too little money, a whole lot of love for my Country, my heritage, and my people, and a whole lot of anger over what this political class - BOTH SIDES - whom we gave a solemn trust to, to manage the wealth and prosperity of our Nation, did to us. One side did it deliberately, and the other side helped them do it by plain cowardice.

This election, I’m not going to vote for the lesser-of-two- evils “presumptive nominee” frontrunner RINO, or sit out and let the Communist assh*le waltz to victory.

On Election Day, I’m going to say a prayer, and listen for whatever still, small voice God decides to send my way, if He decides to do so at all, and vote based on who I believe to be the best person to start the long, painful process of undoing what these rotten, lousy scoundrels have done to my country.

I’ll write in that candidate’s name if he/she doesn’t happen to be “the one”.

It’s already out of my hands to begin with, but I WILL have my vote.

Because I still believe in WE THE PEOPLE. And one way or another, painfully or peacefully, WE THE PEOPLE WILL have our say, eventually.

I don’t know how to post graphics, but that ‘hammer meets nail’ is quite appropriate here. Well done, sir...well done.

Hale, there are basically two different mind-sets IMO.

One says basically what you have and contemplates voting for the lesser of two evils for the rest of their life, by which time they fully expect to see this nation even further beyond hope than it is now.

One says basically what you have and contemplates allowing the Left to take this nation down quick and dirty, so we can get on with rebuilding. Hell, we’re going to get there anyway.

After a lot of thought and wrestling with what to do, I’m thinking the later group may be the best way to go.

I’m tired of allowing the Republican elites to think they can screw us on turn at a time over the next fifty years.

When the fall comes, they’ll be hurt. You can count on it. At least I’ll get some comfort knowing that.
