That has to be the funniest thing I have read all week. If that wasn't supposed to be a joke, I don't even know what to say.

socialism will never work in this country. simply due to the fact that people beleive that if you are educated and have an "important" job you are entitled to more.

i would love to see an election where the american people all just wrote in big fat letters across the ballot NO CONFIDENCE.

Not more then I could count on one hand and that's still shaky!!!

My vote is very private and very personal.

I will only say this.... Common sense has been lost in the political community, as well as honesty and integrety.

The democratic party has suckered an awfull lot of people into believing that the government will take care of all their needs, without *ANY* consideration of where the money is going to come from.

The republicans can no longer block the kind of legislation that spends trillions of dollars to throw good money after bad.

FWIW, had I need the one running the show, *NO* bailouts would have occured, and the corporate entities that got themselves into financial trouble because of their bad business practices would have been sent packing. They made their bed, they can sleep in it. There is no such thing as "too big to fail". There is only bad management.

As a small business owner, I can only say that the biggest problems facing the small cities and rural communities are directly related to the price of gasoline and fuel. When the price of gas and fuel go down, money flows, when the price goes up, it stops.

Republicats, Democans, what's the difference? ...every one of the sons o' bitches
is only in it for themselves.

personally, i consider myself a conservative rather than a liberal.

small government, low taxes, stay the hell out o' my business, that's the kind
of government i want...you know, like the one that was founded in 1776!

I think the only way to get that back is the same way it was obtained in the first place. And yes, I do intend that exactly the way it sounds.

Finally, somebody with the same view that I have held all along.:thumbsup: The price of gas is what caused this whole crisis. When gas went up, people could not pay their other bills which caused the housing crisis after the gov't forced banks to lend to unqualified slugs.

Here is my view on politix. I was really, really, really baked at the time, I'm guessing it made sense to me back then. :stoned: :jointsmile:

[boaz]

seriously I tend to vote for the Dems in local and state elections cause they do a pretty decent job for education, etc. although they are gutless when it comes to ending Cannabis prohibition, even for medical use. On the national level I vote Repub because the only alternative here is a Dem and the Dem's on the national level are just bat shit crazy.

I agree with Bozo, I like a small extremely limited gov't. I'm not quite to the point of only recogizing gov't at the county level but I could see myself heading that way. :jointsmile:
