I have been yelled out here in the past for even suggesting that I might stay home and not vote. Well, I see it simply, I refuse to vote for a socialist democrat. Why in the heck would I vote for a socialist republican then? If there is no difference in the two, then it does not matter if I withhold my vote from either. A vote for McScream, Chaffey, Stowe or whatever the heck her name is, is the same as a vote for a liberal democrat. I don't like liberals, democrats, socialists, communists, etc., so why would I vote for a republican that prances around pretending to be a conservative, while really just a stinking liberal? I will continue to vote on issues involving non-people at the state and local level, where the vote is up or down against a certain thing. However, I have had it with the people they parade out here as conservative republicans. I find very few of those exist. They certainly no not exist here in WA state or the northwest. But, I have had it with the republican party. I no longer send money, and now I will no longer send votes. Even my wife who really pays little attention to politics asked why we continue to vote for people that are no different? I am not going to try to explain it to her any more, because she is right. It is not worth it. So, why bother. While I support Bush on the war on terror, I believe he has failed miserably in other areas. Like the border issue, huge spending bills, silly mistakes in other areas.

My wife would be very happy never to hear about politics from me again. ;)

All you have stated here goes double from me. I'm plumb tuckered out waiting for some sign of life from these professional, in it for the money, Republican trough feeders.

90% of the federal budget is either unconstitutional, or extra-constitutional. Best I can tell, with a few minor exceptions including "paying the electric bill", the only constitutional expenditure is for the "common defense" ie, military. The RINOs have had a decade to straighten out the budget and it hits us deeper in the pocket every time. And what is the first budget that gets cut? If you said the defense budget go to the head of the class!!! I have more "rant" but I'm out of steam. I think I'll go pollute my lungs. (BTW, retired Navy)
