This is exactly why I am supporting McCain. He may be as nutty as Ross Perot, but at least he is willing to talk about real issues.
While McCain's language goes further than does the language of any other candidate for President on this issue it's still not good enough. Any "real" government speech on the "future" of the American economy must begin and end with entitlement reform. With details. With details that make people sit up and take notice. With some sort of phased-in overhaul of the entire system.
See the problem is, politicians are only in it for themselves, I see very few of them that are trying to do what it right for the country. And cutting the big 3 are not going to get you a lote of votes...So it is political suicide, but we need a few martyrs for the cause.
Ron Paul. A Traditional Libertarian Republican. long voting record to back it up. no other candidate supports and obeys the constitution than him.
when you dont support the cosntitution you end up with a corrupt basterdized form a of government.
now we have 2 corrupt parties of people that are not liberal nor conservative. people that have corrupted those words twisted them to something else that resembles more of a Authoritarian or Fascist.
Power has corrupted them and they want more. sooner or later some say we already have ended up in Dictatorship.
Fred Thompson was Council on Foreign Relations. he has also been a lobbyist.
most of the candidates are corrupt empire puppets supported by bankers and corporations. Rockefeller is a key figure. Haliburton is among them.
hey what ever happen to Enron.
nation of Fools. myself being fooled as well. propaganda works.
tv,newspapers and radio its all pretty much syndicated nationally and owned by a handfull mega corporations.
rich get richer while poor get poorer. inflation is a *****. legislated wage increases are bad it drives up inflation. Federal Government pumping out Billions a week doesnt help either more money in the economy drives up inflation.
some are now speculating that the global economy could burst. much like the original Depression. the US dollar is in the toilet. its been devalued.
only thing keeping it up. Iraq and Afganistan stranglehold to china and other nations.
only Candidate that warns about it is Ron Paul. the rest are tools to profit off it.
Ron Paul is founding father material.

Democrate would do a lot better if they could come up with good plans and then go through with them.
Republicans swould be better off if they could actually control what they try to control.
Democrats argue form their heart especially rhe pooor masses looking for a cause;
Republicans try to form common sense legislation especially for small businessx.
Is there ever going to be a better in between choice? The tweener party?
Who was your politicial favorite of all time? Reagan? Clinton? Bush 1 or 2? Truman? Eisenhower? Roosevelt? Carter? Nixon? Ross Chicken Man Perot? Gore? Spiro?

George Bush is not the reason your mom is making less as a teacher. That is pure unadultrated ingnorance. Educate yourself if you are going to spout off opinions in public
You cannot vote for a candidate based on his party affiliation or the words coming out of his mouth....read on.
LOOK OVER THE DESCRIPTIONS OF THE FOLLOWING TWO HOUSES AND SEE IF YOU CAN TELL WHICH BELONGS TO AN ENVIRONMENTALIST.
HOUSE # 1:
A 20-room mansion (not including 8 bathrooms) heated by natural gas.
Add on a pool (and a pool house) and a separate guest house all heated by gas. In ONE MONTH ALONE this mansion consumes more energy than the average American household in an ENTIRE YEAR. The average bill for electricity and natural gas runs over $2,400.00 per month. In natural gas alone (which last time we checked was a fossil fuel), this property consumes more than 20 times the national average for an American home. This house is not in a northern or Midwestern "snow belt," either. It's in the South.
HOUSE # 2:
Designed by an architecture professor at a leading national university, this house incorporates every "green" feature current home construction can provide. The house contains only 4,000 square feet (4 bedrooms) and is nestled on arid high prairie in the American southwest. A central closet in the house holds geothermal heat pumps drawing ground water through pipes sunk 300 feet into the ground. The water (usually 67 degrees F.) heats the house in winter and cools it in summer. The system uses no fossil fuels such as oil or natural gas, and it consumes 25% of the electricity required for a conventional heating/cooling system. Rainwater from the roof is collected and funneled into a 25,000 gallon underground cistern. Wastewater from showers, sinks and toilets goes into underground purifying tanks and then into the cistern. The collected water then irrigates the land surrounding the house. Flowers and shrubs native to the area blend the property into the surrounding rural landscape.
HOUSE # 1 (20 room energy guzzling mansion) is outside of Nashville, Tennessee. It is the abode of that renowned environmentalist (and filmmaker) Al Gore.
HOUSE # 2 (model eco-friendly house) is on a ranch near Crawford,
Texas. Also known as "the Texas White House," it is the private residence of the President of the United States, George W. Bush.
So whose house is gentler on the environment? Yet another story you WON'T hear on CNN, CBS, ABC, NBC, MSNBC or read about in the New York Times or the Washington Post. Indeed, for Mr. Gore, it's truly "an inconvenient truth."
~~We need to figure out which candidate is the least full of crap and elect HIM.

I didn't know that Al Gore was a candidate for President; at a minimum Gore has not announced that he is running. Ditto for President Bush being a declared 2008 Presidential candidate.

Well, as I care about things other than guns, war, money, and myself, I'm obviously going to vote for a Democrat. When you've got Republicans like John McCain saying that he won't rest until he kills Osama bin Laden (and then SMILING a rather wicked smile about it)...that's just barbaric.
Since you don't care about the above items, you apparently aren't concerned with the condition of the economy or what happens in the world.
And how is McCain's statement barbaric? It sounds like McCain is seeking justice.

Whether its $300 or $600, the tax cuts were not a one time deal. Revenues have actually exceeded the amounts forecast assuming the tax cuts were not approved. Something therefore stimulated the economy.
Almost $80 million in fees? You could BUILD a warehouse and still be filthy rich. I really hope you aren't standing up for someone who took $80 million of money from the people she was trying to "help". 5 years or not, there aren't many lawyers making $16 million per year.
And if $16 million can't pay a support staff, then there is something very wrong with that.
You don't buy the Vietnam comparisons yet you basically compare the 2 in your first post. Your recent posts have some good information in them but you sound exactly like a politician by talking out of both sides of your mouth.
Al Queda wants us dead, not the Iraqis. There is some overlap, but most of the fighting is sectarian violence and not Al Queda.
yeah but your taxes were much lower since then, so you get a bigger refund at the end of the year. The token rebate was just an economy stimulation trick.
Ahhh, the "beer money rebate". At least Milwaukee had a "surge" worth note.
I myself am going to vote for Greg Stillson, a visionary man who will take our country to its ultimate future. I believe that he is destined for great things.
Stillson '08!!!
