the people are who should be worried if there is a dem congress and a dem president can you say tax tax tax but hey life goes on Im not against paying taxes. Its accountability, and what they are used for, that bothers me. Everyone acts like things are going to get better by giving tax breaks. That wont happen. Who is going to pay for this recovery, the corporations? That sure will help aye? Use them here on programs to help Americans, find alternative energy, and the rebuild the infrastructure, and I have no problem at all. |

well nothing wrong with that that is your choice i have voted for dem in my lifetime but a balance is needed so both are kept in check myself i would probably be better off with a dem + dem in dc Nobody likes heavy taxing. But..nobody likes heavy spending either. There has to be some kind of middle ground. Bush has gotten us into some terrible debt. It's going to take years to fix that. well i am not sure of the debt too gnp ratio at the moment but yes there is a bit of debt out there that is for sure but i am not positive it is out of ratio what is the gnp and what is the debt hopefully (yea right) it is not over 5 times the gnp kinda like buying a house should not spend more than 5 times yer annual salary and that is pushing it a little imo |

Corporations dont pay taxes?
They sure do pay for legislation for their own selfish gains. Did you see where the two Jewish Americans are under investigation for donations to Olmert? |

LMAO, I know what your saying. There would not be any real tax hikes if the money we already pay was just redirected. |

I liked Bill Richardson's idea of starting a National effort like the one Kennedy had to reach the moon aimed at finding an alternative energy source.
It would create jobs as well. |

Defeatist attitudes will not accomplish anything either. Climb on board and show the politicians whose government it is. It wont happen over night, but by taking a defeatist attitude it will never happen. I refuse to surrender and will pursue the idea of a Gov of the people for the people to my death! I am an American!!

Republican, Democrat, they are both just two heads of the same monster. Until the American people decide that they've had enough of the two party system and either add a couple more or be rid of the party system altogether, nothing will change. There are 6 political Parties, not counting the communist party. There is the traditional 2, plus the Green party, the Libertarian party, the Constitution party, and the America first party. Spreading the vote that many different ways will only lead to Congress appointing, per the constitution, the President. It will accomplish nothing! That is where you are wrong. Of course the congress would end up appointing a President on a more frequent basis, but the minor parties have no voice in national elections and very little in the local. The "fair and equal" press refuses to cover them or even invite them to debates. Hence, the two party system. The real bonus to spreading the electorate out more occurs not in the White House, but in Congress. If we force congressmen to work together by breaking the two party coalitions, there is a higher probablity of greater goals accomplished. Not to mention the ancient adage "variety is the spice of life." Without a regular shift in the representitives, no change can occur. To that I have but one thing to say, United we stand, divided we fall!! Climb on board or please dont vote at all... If there is anyone misguided in this room, it's the one telling others not to vote. Who is the really, George Bush trying to stay in office? You go ahead an beat your agenda's drum, but I'm voting, I'll guarentee that. When I want communism, I'll move to Venezuala, at least I'd be able to afford gas there. You leave. I'll stay and fight!
Thats what makes American unique from the rest of the world. We dont leave when the going gets tough!! Big props on this one, I had to make a similar statement yesterday. I'll be voting my conscious and thats the way I think it should be. |

Republicans are losing more and more seats in congress. What is alarming them most is they are losing them in districts and states that have been traditionally Republican, in some instances for 99 years. This could possibly be leading up to the worst loss for them since Watergate. They are beginning to turn on their own. This is a good story, http://www.realclearpolitics.com/articles/2008/05/gop_stunned_by_loss_in_mississ.html These are results of special elections since Bush has taken office. 2008 Dennis Hastert (R-IL) resigned. Special election winner: Bill Foster (D). Richard Baker (R-LA) resigned. Special election winner: Don Cazayoux (D). Roger Wicker (R-MS) appointed to Senate. Special election winner: Travis Childers (D). 2004 Ernie Fletcher (R-KY) elected governor. Special election winner: Ben Chandler (D). Bill Janklow (R-SD) resigned. Special election winner: Stephanie Herseth (D). 2001 Norm Sisisky (D-VA) died. Special election winner: Randy Forbes (R). They have been thinking Americans are stupid and standing behind their policies. I think it is heartening to see that we arent, and maybe they too are beginning to get the message. What do you think? Fanta, Don't get too many bubbles going at one time. It is a simple thing called "Murphy's Law." Sooner or later situations change, and Fanta, in 2 years, definitely 4 years, the political scene will once again, be totally turned around. We Republicans had to put up with 8 years of damocrats, Murphy's Law came into play and the USA got back to Republican. It is such an easy theory to understand. Lindyy
