Exactly... most people can't grasp this. Not only will the productive have to pay back bushes "tax cuts", we'll have to pay interest to the chinese for lending him the money to "give" us those cuts.
To the bushies, I say that the only reason I personally would want to see bush elected over skerry is my personal greed... let those 6-8 million mexican friends of his that have poured over the border during his first term pay for my "tax cut".
My personal greed however, is far outweighed by what bush'll do if he recieves a second term. War against Iran, North Korea, Syria, Columbia, continued military occupation of the Balkans, Afghanistan, Iraq, increased fascism and socialism at home, you name it! Nothing is so dangerous as a man with nearly unlimited power, so convinced he's right, when, on just about everything, he's so damn wrong.
My vote goes to Badnarik... I'm convinced that, of the Presidential candidates on the ballot in enough states to have a mathematical chance of winning, he's the best. I'm equally convinced that a weak, poll-driven idiot like skerry, opposed by a 'pubbie senate & house, is much preferrable to the group of madmen that hold the executive branch of gov't today (but hopefully not tonite!).
Bottom line... we'll be worse off 4 years from now than we are today, no matter if bush or skerry is elected. This trend will continue until we, as a nation, restore the Republic as conceived by the Founders, or until a weak, socialist, balkanized US disintegrates. Those are the only two long-term outcomes from travelling the road we're on.
Amen, I'm logging a protest vote for Badnarik as well.
We can't tolerate this endless compromise with the left. It must stop somewhere, and the only way to do it is to send our so-called "conservative" leaders a shot across the bow.
