Just out of curiosity, what is your political philosohy? Did you vote for Obama?
That's a strange followup question on my post #551, don't you think? This is a religion nor politics forum, after all.
But since you asked: I have been a registered Republican since I could vote. I am against big government, I am against tax-and-spend policies, I am against the Obamination Health Law, I am against illegal immigration (which actually flourished under the Bush administration to our shame), I am pro gun lobby, I believe voters should pass a qualification test and get a voting license, I am for English as the official language, I support the draft.
I oppose gay and lesbian "marriage," I oppose school busing, abortion, etc. I hope the Demsm are voted out of office in Senate and House elections in November, I hope Obama's Health Care Law is repealed or amended.
I hope Obama will become a lame duck, one-term president come November, and that Republicans will have enough votes in Congress to override every one of his vetoes.
As far as I am concerned, liberals do nothing about the poor except make them feel good about being poor and thereby perpetuate their poverty. I think Lyndon Johnson and Bobby Kennedy changed immigration laws to alter American demographics and give the Democrats an advantage. Bill Clinton came as close as possible to admitting of this plan.
Did you vote for Obama?
No, Did you? But I didn't vote for the clown pair the Republican Party offered either. I think the Republican party has more talent than McCain and Palin, but I haven't seen any yet. I do realize that Palin may be popular with the Tea Party people, but I am worried that the Tea Party will split the conservative block the way Ross Perot did in the early 1990s. That helped elect Bill Clinton. She may be popular among some Republicans, but she is not my cup of tea.
