Does that mean that I hope John McCain wins? Not really.
As Dante Alighieri wrote, "Abandon hope, all ye who enter here."
I am almost there.
“If they also control the White House, we will have a series of legislative packages that will make the Great Society look like a libertarian government. . . . The country is in trouble.”
Get ready for federally mandated “Global Warming Days” where the gov’t shuts down commerce to slow CO2 emission. And while it might be nice to the have the day off, our economy will begin to resemble that of France.
No matter who wins, we lose!
I used to read this column in Byte magazine, delivered to my door each month from 1981 until they ceased printing. It was, by far, the most respected computer magazine of its time.
Jerry is a science fiction writer, and his books, especially the ones he co-authored with Niven, are great reads.
He leans consistently conservative.
The founding fathers gave us recourse in the event this happens.
Read the 2nd admendment and the Bill of Rights.
It is the nature of government to grow. Trying to stop it is admirable but futile. At best, growth can be posponed for a short whie.
Post-Gringrich? How about Post-Reagan. Although Gringrich was the author of the Contract for America, he was the first one to bail on it as soon as the term limitations item came up before Congress. Maybe if he could have seen the future of his not being reelected to Speaker of the House, he would have stuck with the Contract.
I’m doing a write in vote for Ron Paul. He is the only Republican presidential candidate who isn’t a socialist.
I will be voting for Juan too, but my nose will be sore from holding it so hard.
We’re about to witness governmental tyranny on an unimaginable scale.
Sorry. I can’t pull the lever for Johnny Mac.
I have 3 questions for anyone.
What’s the point of fighting a war on terror and supporting the troops when the ILLEGAL immigration issue is the direct result of not enforcing existing law - why have a gaping hole for anyone to crawl through on the southern border?
Why have a candidate embrace this green nonsense which is the equivalent of surrendering American economic leadership and sovereignty?
What have we accomplished by allowing foreign despots who enable terror to dictate energy policy and pricing when we restrict our own domestic fuel reserves?
I would say we are fighting many wars .. all are equally important. I would say our troops agree and understand the significance of supporting all our fights.
This country is doomed. If the Rats win, I believe we will enter a period where punishing taxes, regulations, fuel shortages, illegal immigration and inept government run health care make the problems we are having with these today make today seem like to good old days. The stupidity of the American people who think “change” is going to mean improvements to any of the above is truly amazing.
I will hold my nose and vote McLame and as many conservatives as I can in my one party state of NJ. Hopefully, he may be able to slow this inexorible march to Socialism, but I doubt it. The American people, especially the Baby-boom generation, which I am ashamed to be a member of have come of age. I’m sorry to say, this is the whiniest generation in history and they are taking the reins of power now and the country is going to suffer greatly.

“Big Government Conservatism”
There is no such thing, and people who vote for it are not conservatives.
