Josh, I realize we are both planted on our selection this November, but let’s look at your primary reason for voting for McCain:
“I believe McCain when he says he will follow Osama Bin Laden to the gates of hell to get justice. They are both imminent dangers. They will both affect our children and grandchildren and it is our duty to defeat the Jihad and Socialism.”
I believe his DESIRE is there, but remember, his actions are limited by Congress. With his “great friendships” with the Democrats, will he really stand against them when it comes to the war? Really?? He wants to close Guantanmo. He wants to ban waterboarding because it’s torture. He was “for the surge” before General Peatus had even written the manual on it. He will secure the boarder while granting 12-20 million illegals amnesty and granting citizenship to another 24-40 MILLION of their immediate relatives. He was against the tax cuts, maintains today it was the right position, even though they have brought a glut of cash to the coffers – WHICH EVERYONE PROMPTLY SPENT! He recognizes the threat of jihad yet is unwilling to drill in ANWR, off the coasts or within our borders to secure out energy independence.
One of the primary weapons of communism and socialism is finding ways to make the populace more and more dependent on the central government. To find ways to allow the central government to control and direct business, to expand the management of the daily lives of its citizens. Name a single, solitary bill introduced by McCain that has freed any citizen from their government. (of course, sadly, this can also be said many of the sitting Republicans).
The republicans are now the Democrats of the 60s. The Democrats are now a modern European Socialist Party. It’s time to turn the boat. In fact, it may be too late. Yet, the effort needs to be made. I have been harping on these points since Jimmy Carter. Obviously even he wasn’t enough of a lesson to this country. His stupidity gave us today’s Iran, today’s Afghanistan and today’s energy drought to name just a few of his accomplishments. What’s coming, if we continue down this path, will make that look like child’s play.
