I voted for the Bushes but since I am a strong conservative I wished that I had a real conservative choice. But the Dem Party has become a socialist party and thus I will not vote for any of them.
Let us not forget the big picture. The two main supporters of the worldwide Jihad are the Saudi and the Iranian regimes. The Bushes are too close to the Saudi princes and the payouts made by the Saudis have corrupted our Middle East policies.
I supported the invasion of Iraq and the toppling of the Baathist regime. But then we should have used the Iranian and Syrian support of the Jihadists to topple those regimes. We should have pushed Olmert to go after baby Assad’s Alawite gang and we should have separated the Iranian Arabistan from the regime over the mountains north of the Persian Gulf. The talk about invading Iran is nonsense. Look at a good topographical map of the region and look where the oil is located in the region.
Except for the tax cut, which was not made permanent due to the socialists, the administration’s economic policies have been terrible. The Sec Treasury he has chosen are Wall Streeters who support an easy money policy and bailouts for the rich Wall Street tycoons. My guess is that Bush’s education at the Harvard Biz School is partially to blame. I have some chums who taught there and I know the nonsense that especially the management profs put out as business strategies.
