Damn I hate agreeing with you on a bunch of that. :clap: toothy If we would stop looking at the past & stop trying to document who was wronger & look to the future & take steps towards improvement we could get out of this self imposed quagmire. This society gets so hung up in didactic bullshit. Who's more brillianter, who knows the biggest words, who is more charasmatic---charasmatic my ass--my favorite--if you can't dazzle em with your brilliance, dazzle them with your bullshit. OK I'm done, this nonsense tends to give me a headache. November, she's a comin. :) I know for a fact that I was born 200 yrs later then I would've chosen.

We all look at the Gov. for help, change & hope. Hope whatever change there is helps me, change things that I don't like & only help the ones I like & hope nothing affects me, do all these changes but hope it requires absolutely no help on my part. The Gov. looks at it to promise everyone the change they want & hope they are still dumb enough to believe that my BS is real & it helps me get elected.

Not me sam, I look at our govt. to be able to help citizens in need. Not people that can't even speak english or are to lazy to get a job digging ditches or washing dishes ( I've done both when I had to). And to be charged a fair tax rate equally over the table to keep things running. At this point--the govt. IS the enemy. I find that real sad

The Gov. has been the enemy for some time now it isn't something new that just came along, there's a lot of fixing that needs done but it ain't gonna happen overnight & it will never happen if the powers to be won't work towards it.

I agree 100%--but only a blind man (nothin personal) would think this could even begin to happen with BO in the White House--Anymore, I'm not rep, dem, conserv, lib or radical or any other party affiliation. I'm just a pissed off Nam Vet that is going to leave behind kids & grandkids. I'm just doin the best I can keeping my own back yard & my real small Town in order and am going to vote for the candidate that "I" think will do the best job in getting us "HEADED back to basics" No more, no less I am looking foward to the one on one debates coming up. I think they will be the tell all for me--again--BO is not in the equation.

It's not what government can do for you, its what it has been doing to you.
