There are few writers in this day and age who write essays without a single wasted or unnecessary word. Sowell is one of them

Some people say that there is no point voting because there is no difference between the two major parties, and the other parties have no chance of winning.

Some people say there is no point voting because the votes were already tabulated weeks/days ahead of the supposed vote.

The fallacy here is that we only have the two choices, a choice between bad and worse. That isn't so. If the federal government does not abide by the constitution, the states have the right to abolish it. Maybe we should be thinking in those terms.

"...the Republicans are disappointing and the Democrats are dangerous."

Reminds me of one of my neighbors: "The Republicans are evil, but the Democrats are worse."

[SaxxonWoods]

"...Republicans are disappointing and the Democrats are dangerous."

As usual, when Sowell is finished, there is little to add.

Whatever the Democrats' new-found rhetoric about "supporting the troops," their track record for more than a quarter of a century has been one of consistently voting against military appropriations and appropriations for the intelligence services, as well as hampering the intelligence services with restrictions.

We cannot let the rats get control of the house, which starts all appropriations. There goes the border fence (authorized but unappropriated as of now) and there goes missle defense, which is, in my opinion, the most important military technology today. There is little or no hope of containing Venezuela, NK, or China without a robust missle defense.

From the article: "In general, Democrats are the only real reason to vote for Republicans. "

Ann, is that you?

[George W. Bush]

If our prez gets another chance to appoint a Supreme and wants a non-lawyer, something many lawyers believe would be good for the Court, he should pick Sowell.

The steadfast thoughtfulness and intellectual rigor of his thinking is a rare quality.

Wordsmith, ethicist, erudito. Medal of Freedom winner when we get the next great President...

the Republicans are disappointing and the Democrats are dangerous.

How big would the bumper sticker have to be?

[Grampa Dave]

"those disappointed Republican voters who plan to stay home on election day to protest their elected officials' failings are seeing politics as a way to vent their personal emotions. That is a frivolous self-indulgence in a deadly serious time for this nation."

This mental illness happened in 1992. That enabled the Clintoons to seize control. Our nation and world is still suffering from that BS. We will not survive if they seize power again in 2006 and 2008.

Cheers to your new bombs!
