Can you predict the future? ... Of course no Democrat will do any better. So, you're just bitterly anti-Democrat? At least that's a simple policy, easy to explain. I'm not bitterly anything. Frankly I just don't care enough about politics to get involved beyond a random discussion in this NG. I do believe that the secular-progressive (cultural) movement is dangerous to the future of this country, but not all democrats are secular-progressives. In the upcoming election I plan to vote for at least three democrats on the local level and one on the state level. All are solid citizens, patriots, and have performed their jobs with sincerity and diligence. Their GOP challengers are inexperienced, unknown entities. I prefer public servants with some worthwhile experience. ... To expect any president to actually make and execute policies which benefit the populace is naive. The Washington Game is one of money and favors. In that case, the fools are the people who continue to vote for it. Do we have a choice? Both democrats and republicans play the money-for-favors game. Both care more about preserving their jobs than about their constituents. So one votes for the people who most closely mirror his/her beliefs. As I said above, no one is perfect, but some have fewer warts than others. I have no doubt that both houses of Congress will change hands this election. Bush will essentially be rendered impotent with respect to ramrodding his agenda through to his desk for signing. The net effect is that nothing substantive will get done over the next two years, which might be a good thing considering the past three years. Max |
