Wayne Allyn Root, you lose me right there.
You were the Libertarian Party Vice Presidential candidate in 2008.
Yes he was.
He should have been the GOP Presidential nominee. He ran. The fact Mr. Root wasn’t nominated and McCain was points to the cowardice, stupidity and naïveté of the GOP’s progressive/statist leadership, as well as reflecting quite poorly on the primary voters’ motivations.
The greatest dangers to the USA are not crossing the southern border, not a rising China, and not 50 generation inbred moon god worshippers; but thrive within our national and state capitols, nourish themselves in our media and unaccountable bureaucracies, enforce themselves behind badges “for public safety”, and are germinated within us at taxpayer expense in the public schools.
We now have 110 million people employed in private enterprise, and 88 million people on the dole or some sort of government employee.
There isn’t even a mention of going back to zero based budgeting at the federal level, while crap like Ryan/Murray passes with flying colors.
Lots of gas bagging about balancing the budget, but don’t touch Social Security, Medicare part D, Federal pensions, military retirement, military bases, government employees, welfare, SNAP, section 8, heating assistance, etc. Hardly anyone wants to face the facts that WE CANT AFFORD ANY OF THIS CRAP.
Please fellow freepers, stop looking for courage and wisdom to spring forth from the collective cowardice, avarice and ignorance of the American voters. Things are unlikely to change until we hit the wall, and things may get even worse afterwards.
