Thanks for the ping. I have been angry at Democommiecrats all day too but for different reasons. The fools that should know better but who "think" our nation is going to "improve" now that the Republicans are out of "power" in Congress have damned this country to hell.....and the education "system" in this country is just one of the destructions that they have wrought. By the time the damage has been done - more in education and more in the disappearance of the middle class as the commies work hard to redistribute as much income as possible to the "poor" and their friendly "elitists" in power - it will be too late to save this country again. And, yes, I also blame the Republicans who "stayed home". But the real destroyers are the communists who are now in power and are on their vicious path to destroy us. So, I see your anger and raise you one.
I just did a rant on another thread about the people on here that routinely use the word RINO to trash Republicans they don't agree with when I bet most of them have been part of the stay it home my way or no way crowd. I am so tired of pandering to these pseudo Republicans that I could scream. I think it is time for new coalitions to form or we will not take the White House. Whatever happened to just plain conservatives who are for strong defense, smaller government, less taxes, strict constitutionalist judges, and values to include our elected officials.
I am tired of social issues being the only reason that someone votes for a candidate. I want a strong leader that will win and stand up to terrorist and believes education for one thing belongs at the state level. I am frankly tired of pandering to the religious right when they stab us in the back like they did again this election.
It is going to be a long two years and if we cannot keep the WH in 2008, I fear what will happen, but too many Freepers put their social issues ahead of what is good for the entire Nation.
Sorry for the rant!
