DisTax, you voted against Barack Obama because of his REPUTATION? Did you do any work for yourself? Obama was not a radical senator, and he is not a radical president. He was a slightly progressive senator and he is, unfortunately, a moderate president.
Reading your last remark, I feel so sorry for you. You work from almost no information, and what you have is misinformation. You display no notion of the founders’ ideas. You have deluded yourself into thinking that Bush-Dick protected the country when they neglected warnings about al-Qaeda and then chose to retaliate in Iraq, slaughtering tens of thousands and causing untold mayhem among tens of thousands of American, besides, although Iraq had nothing to do with al-Qaeda (although, thanks to Bush-Dick, it does now). Your shame about supporting Bush-Dick’s attempts to destroy America runs so deep that you create strawmen agaisnt whom Bush-Dick stood for the “right cause”: “the socialists”, “the over-spending”, the Dems in Congress”—having conveniently forgotten in your shame that Republicans ruled Congress for six of Bush-Dick’s eight years and for the six years prior to Bush-Dick’s sneaking into the White House, having conveniently forgotten in your embarrassment that Bush-Dick turned Bill Clinton’s budget surplus into the hugest budget deficit since the Great Depression.
Finally, you are so mortified over supporting a man who prayed to Jesus as he authorized the bombing of chilren that you dress yourself in raiment and contend that (1) There is a god, and you are doing “His” work (2) There is a “Satan”, (3) There is such a thing as “Judeo-Christian culture”, and (4) The U.S. has not been, for almost a century, a capitalist-socialist state. Indeed, all that keeps you alive: the police, the e.m.t.s, O.S.H.A., the F.D.A., Medicare, Social Security, & sundry federal inspectors working to keep us, our parents & our children safe; and much of what is best about our society (public schools, public libraries, public parks, state & national parks & protected areas, the magic of our interstate highways &c., &c.) are forms of socialism.
Oh, DisTax, you poor man. Where do you come up with all that garbage? Why do you persist in your hatred of the best, of the love & generosity that exists within each of us when we work together to raise up this nation & the world?
I hope that you will come around & that you will stop living in fear, prejudice, hatred, & shame.
