The way I see most polticians these days is you end up having to choose the lesser of 2 evils and there is is usually a very fine line between the 2.

Obama is cool ... he's a golfer. He has succeeded in his core policies. He has dismantled our manned space program, scattered the greatest scientific team since the Manhattan Project. Used the money we saved from that to buy cell phones for those who will not work for a living. He has stoked envy and covetousness, fragmented the body politic ... set black against white, women against men, those of modest means against the successful, union members against non-union workers, atheist against Christians and Jews. He has impoverished the nation, lowered our expectations so people will trade a policy which would create jobs for one which promises a food stamp future. His policies have squandered our wealth, disabled our economy with such debt that it is increasingly unlikely we'll be able to dig our way out.
He has turned against our friends and embraced our enemies. He has realized his father's dreams, the dreams of a Kenyan nationalist, Marxist ... a Mau Mau. Here's the joke ... he's the president of the nation he seeks to humble.

The way I see most polticians these days is you end up having to choose the lesser of 2 evils and there is is usually a very fine line between the 2. Or, people finding themselves voting against the one they like the least. I refuse to do either. But until we get back to a popular vote, it doesn't matter much anyway. Before my vote is even counted, the election is over.

Thank you, Jack.
And ... Obama has attempted to destroy the greatest health care system in the world, and if elected again, will do the same for our military.
His job is to end American "exceptionalism" and bring us low.

Let's take a look at Obama's tax policies, especially his "Buffett Rule." The intent is not to reduce the deficit but to establish "fairness."
The intent of the tax increase on the “rich” is not to raise money, but to inflict pain on that segment of society. Obama sees the “poor” as suffering, so he intends to equalize the “suffering.” The problem with this policy is that Obama increases the total quantum of suffering for society. Instead of raising the lot of the poor, Obama seeks to diminish the “rich.” Instead of increasing the nation’s wealth, he seeks to increase the nation’s pain. In other words, Obama uses the force of the State to inflict pain on one segment of society so they suffer their fair share. Obama uses the force of the State to increase pain within the body politic. He is a wrecker.

I think Bush meant well. He made some big mistakes, no question.
I didn't vote for Bush, the first time around. I'd vote for him if he were running against Obama.
I'll take Romney. I liked Ramblers.
