I think there's a third and better choice. As George said is some other
thread, this isn't the same Republican Party I signed on with. I think
conservative ideas hold a lot of water and need to be presented by a
conservative. The latest batch of republicans-come-lately that we've
seen in
the past several elections talked a conservative game during their
campaigns
and then spent money like drunken sailors once in office.

This tired, lame argument is absurd. "If only we'd elected a REAL
conservative to get spending under control!"

The so-called conservatives are incapable of getting the debt under
control because their only economic plan is to decrease taxes on the
rich and to borrow money to cover the nut.



So you agree with me. I knew it would happen sooner or later.


By your way of thinking the last true conservative was Bill Clinton.

Actually no. Newt and the Republican Congress got spending under control
for a couple years, and the dot.bomb boom brought in almost more money than
the Feds could spend. Clinton was a lucky POTUS.

No Bush and the Congress, Republican and Democrat controlled over the last 8
years sucked. I did not vote for Bush, I actually voted for Badnarik as both
the candidates were bad choices. I voted for Obama in the primaries as I am
a registered Dem and think the Hillary is a pox on the nation. Was Obama
the best candidate? Not by a long shot, neither was McCain. Obama ran a
better campaign, lots of it because he had 2x the money. The scary part is
who gave the money? A billion bucks does not come from $5 donations. He
owes some groups big time. I actually liked the Libertarian platform
better. I just hope he controls Pelosi, the 2nd dumbest pol from Calif.
(Boxer carries that title.) He most likely is only going to be President
for 4 years, as the troubles are beyond fixing quickly and he is most likely
going to look bad at the next election. Plus the Dem's will lose a lots of
seats in Congress in midterm elections, and there is still going to be a lot
of economic problems. As well as the open borders will likely not be
addressed. People losing their jobs to an illegal will not play well. I
just do not think Obama is ready for primetime. No seasoning. Is sad that
these two are what we had to choose from. Obama in 10 years in the Senate,
would most likely be a lot more ready to be the leader. Bush inherited a
crashing economy, and actually came out ok on that point. It is the rest of
the points where he failed and biggest point was the failure of the veto
pen.

Sad that to see universities, et al on top contributor list. Obama's
handlers removed most checks and balances on the contributions page. Name
of the donor did not have to match the credit card, etc. Lyndon LaRouche
went to jail for the same thing. Between those top contributors there is a
large gap to be filled to $1 Billion bucks.

LOL. Larouche went to jail for tax fraud. He was tried for fraud
associated with fundraising, but that did not stick. The charges were
based on his allegedly claiming that book sales and 'loans' were
reported as donations so he could claim matching federal monies. (BTW,
I got this from wikipedia...if you have more accurate facts, I am
happy to hear them). AFAIK, Obama specifically did not claim any
federal monies, nor did he misrepresent any donations as anything
else.

If you are making the claim that Obama ran a scam or was somehow in
the same category as Lyndon Larouche, history awaits you and your
lawsiut, my man.

I am just stating that a Billion bucks does not come from $5 donations. He
owes some people big time. We are going to be screwed anyway. We have the
Fed driving the interest rates down, at the same time Obama and the next
administration are promising Billions, towards of a 1000 billion in new
spending. Driving the interest rates down and printing money will cause
massive inflation. Maybe, most likely Carter years inflation. 18%. This
will do a couple of things. Some slightly OK, but most bad. The
governments will get a big increase in tax revenue. About 1.2% for every 1%
of inflation. Houses will go up in value, so the loans may not be upside
down. This will be the somewhat OK part, but the real value will have
decreased. Probably the best thing Obama could do would be to kill the
Federal Reserve System. It has no reserves and is not Federal, but controls
the money supply. The only way we are going to really get out of the mess,
is for the governments to quit overspending. Is not the Iraq war as lots
claim. That is less 4% of the Federal Budget and we would be spending part
of that money on the military anyway. It is the other 96% that needs
control. We have not been fixing the infrastructure for many, many years.
Lots more than the last 3 administrations. The Federal Department of
Education controls education in the USA. Has not done a good job, but an
expensive poor job. Most of the controls are via grants of money taken from
a state and sent back at maybe 76% with strings attached. Look at the
dismal graduation rates, and the poor performance of lots of those
graduates. We did not even have a DOE until 1980. I actually liked the
Libertarian platform the best. If were are going to do income
redistribution, lets bring back the WPA. At least we will get something for
our money.
