she would probably be better than we have now, but that would not take much.
What we need is a fiscal conservative and a social liberal. Just get out of
the bedroom. If they are consenting adults, and the rest of society does
not have to pay for their actions, most people would vote for that. We have
Republicans who say they are fiscally sensible, but we had Bush who was a
spendthrift of the 2nd order, and wanted to control a lot of the peoples
actions. We are going to have abortions, always have, always will. But at
least they are safer now than when I was growing up in the 50's and back
alley abortionists killed or maimed a lot of women. Dirty Dancing movie as
an example. We have the Dem's who do not even claim to be fiscally
responsible and Obama as a spendthrift of the 1st order. Displaced Bush.
And who want to also control most of societies actions. Excuse poor school
results, poverty as it gives voters, does not care about the borders and
illegal immigration and actually supports it. People on both sides of the
political spectrum are fed up. There is a good possibility in the next 2 or
3 election cycles of either the Dems or Repubs becoming the next Whig party.
Either side give us the Fiscal conservative and social lib and they are
going to sweep the election. People know you can not spend your way out of
a depression, which what we are in. The government borrowing, is taking
most of the spare capitol that would go to finance any job growth. The next
POTUS needs to address the fact we are overpaid for work. Cut government
size and pay and benefits. Get rid of unneeded departments and cut the size
of overweight agencies. Address the excess regulations. When you require
permits from 100 agencies to build a new factory or refinery and 20% of
those agencies have conflicting requirements, we are not going to build
business here. They will build offshore and import the finished goods.
People will support a change to welfare and the justice system. Drug
testing for welfare, drop out of school and your welfare check is eliminated
or reduced immensely. Let at least 40% of the incarcerated out of jail.
Non-violent crime does not need to go to jail for 3-10 years. Keep them out
and have them pay part of their income back to pay for the monitoring, court
costs, etc. More probation with better probation checks. You screw up and
commit another crime while on probation you get hard labor. Not a coddled
existence in prison. More of an Arizona legal system experience. Legalize
pot and tax it. Lots more revenue and lots less crime. Right now, both
sides of the drug equation want it illegal. Police justify large amounts of
revenue and overtime and confiscation dealing with the drugs. The dealers
are making huge untaxed profits as the price is held high by the illegality.
Unfortunately we as a people are not going to get this. There are very few
ideologues that control the parties, and they pretty much tell us who we get
on the ballot and well as the pretty boy / girl factor. Probably need to go
back to the smoked filled back room deals to get a decent candidate. We got
JFK as the first POTUS that was good looking and not real experienced and
did not really have a good Presidency when he was alive. I did not like
Nixon, but he would have been a better POTUS. JFK gave us the Bay of Pigs,
the Cuban Missile Crises, etc. Not a real lot of meat came out of his term.
LBJ got through the 64 civil rights act, even over the objections of Al
Gores dad. LBJ also gave us most of the dead in Viet Nam. Bogus Gulf of
Tonkin to expand the war immensely. Sirhan Sirhan probably changed modern
history more than any other single person, as he gave us NIXON, REGAN, etc
by eliminating Bobby Kennedy who would have been President. Do not know if
he would have been good, but he would have most likely changed Viet Nam,
either by the outcome, or got us out a lot sooner than 50k dead. We keep
getting candidates who promise smaller better government from all sides.
LIES, BOLD LIES! All the recent have grown the size and range of the Federal
government. Way beyond what the founding fathers imagined.

As usual, you rant on and on, but hardly say anything. You can't get
even 1/2 the "facts" right.
