I’m fearful that the mold was broken after President Reagan was born, and we won’t see his kind again. I pray that we can find another leader with the same qualities Reagan possessed - B. Hussein Obama is not that man. For whatever reason, DimocRATS cannot see that the Government is THE problem and not THE solution with respect to the economy (and health care). Reagan understood that - just as JFK understood that. I’m afraid that the dimocRAT party is not the same party as existed during the time of JFK. I have grave fears for our Nation and it’s survival.
This is why, when they are presented with ideas that are proven to work, they immediately discard them. If they ever solved the problems that plague their constituency, their voters would no longer need them.
Job security.
“and SF and LA could become Gaysia.”
We prefer to call it “Perversia”.
Get the Hell out of California, while their is still time. Take over Nevada and Arizona and vote Dingy Harry and McCain out of office next year.
Yes - and a lot of them have never worked in the private sector or ran a business. I have to operate within a budget, decide how much of the profit I need to reinvest in the business, how much I need to pay to keep my employees, etc. all the while trying to turn out a better product at a better price than the competition and still make a profit. They just raise taxes. I am a college dropout. I understand business. I have a friend with a Phd , all he has ever done is taught school at various levels. A brilliant man, he is currently a professor of art at a local university. But he doesn’t have a clue the way the business world works. School of hard knocks is a wonderful learning tool. Don’t misunderstand me, I am all for education. But my point is we have elected people who, like my friend, have prestigious titles and fancy degrees. They think they can save the planet, and on paper it looks good. Then when it doesn’t work, they just get more money and try it again. If I make a bad business decision, I might go out of business. If I make the same foolish mistake again, I will be out of business. We need more people who are in the real world. We need people who “get it”. BO’s only real job has been a community organizer, and perhaps that is noble work. But does anyone really expect him to “get it”? On business, now that our country is in a financial crisis? I hold no such hope. I believe he is only going to make things much worse.
As do I. I look at Obama,Pelosi and Reid and realize their vision for the nation is the complete opposite of mine. Our values are polar opposites. FRiend, for the first time in my 47 years, I have fear for what this nation is becoming. And more frightening to me than that is that a large part of our country doesn’t appear to give a damn.
