Were you asleep while our federal debt went from $6 trillion to $10 trillion; while Bush and Congress passed the Prescription Drug Act, the biggest socialist giveaway in the last 30 years; while the Presidency became an office which can operate outside the law...?

No. I didn't approve of the former. As far as the prerogatives of the Commander in Chief during hostilities, I'm willing to sort it out after the fact. I don't care what rights I have after I'm dead. I was born in Manhattan, NYC. I didn't need a TV to see what happened on September 11, 2001. Looking out of a window was enough.

How is either Obama or Hillary, both closet Marxists, as Commander in Chief going to help the situation? Forget about a third party miracle. Anyway, I didn't ask for McCain's medical records for no reason. He's not the official GOP nominee yet. I am hoping for the best.

I’m not saying that the dims are going to help anything. They’ll be a disaster. I”m saying we need to have a party that believes in conservative principles—balanced budgets, small government—exactly the opposite of what we’ve had the last eight years.

“As far as the prerogatives of the Commander in Chief during hostilities, I’m willing to sort it out after the fact.”

Let’s see. We’ve had almost seven years of hostilities so far, and no end in sight. The Islamists don’t look like they’re going to fold up the tents and behave any time soon. Exactly when should the suspension of our laws and constitution end? Is bin Laden’s legacy going to be that he scared the American people into surrendering the freedom that was once supremely important to them?
