I didn't vote for GW Bush this last election, and I'm regististered to vote with no party affiliation. There are numerous issues that I am in disagreement with President Bush, but I feel he is doing a better job in his second term than people are giving him credit for.
I won't participate in this silly popularity poll. I just wanted to share my opinion.
Absolutely:)
That's why I'm not voting! I'm so disappointed in him, I'd have to vote against him, and I don't want to give the liberals any encouragement.
Gee, I have an idea, let's vote in responsible people and then we won't have to have a split government. Heck we might even get some of this socialism rolled back. Unfortunately it may be too late.
The single most fiendishly clever act of the Democrat party was opening up welfare to the middle class.
Alexander Tytler 200 years ago said:
"A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the voters discover that they can vote themselves largesse from the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidates promising the most benefits from the public treasury with the result that a democracy always collapses over loose fiscal policy, followed always by a dictatorship. The average age of the world's greatest civilizations has been 200 years."
We may be beyond help, yet I remain ever hopeful and positive in my outlook that someday the people will wake up.
As for voting in responsible people, we are past that. The only thing that will at least hinder the socialism for now is to have opposite parties in the executive and legislative branches
Dear Mark:
I am already looking at the post-War on Terror domestic situation. Right now we don't want to upset things while there are terrorists out there trying to get ahold of nukes. However, after the islamofascist nutcases have been dealt with, I think it is time for conservative and other "right" thinking Americans to seriously consider how we are going to take back our nation from the internationalist elites. If they are not stopped, people like you and I will eventually find ourselves in prison or some "re-education and rehabilition" center for "social misfits". This social misfits will include Evangelical Christians, folks who think homosexuality is immoral, pro-lifers, heterosexula monogamists, American firsters, etc. I see it coming just as plain as dirt. Radical political correctness is already the state-sponsored ideology of the EU. Our Constitution has so far largely protected us from such nonesense. However, if the SC and courts of appeal keep pouring extra-Constitutional precepts into it, we will soon have a gutted Constitution which will no longer have the legal teeth to defend our rights.
