I need the following in place or on the table by November:
1.  Balance the budget without raising taxes.
2.  Capture OBL.
3.  Begin closure of all permanent US overseas bases.
4.  Fire Ashcroft.

Sounds good to me.

I'd like to see Cheney and Rumsfeld go too, though. ;)

Might I suggest then that you simply refrain from voting?

Not voting is just a much a right as voting itself. You can’t be forced or shamed into voting for a candidate that doesn’t represent your views.

Besides you can always write in any one you want. You aren’t forced to vote for just the 2 guys on the Rep / Dem tickets. Wasted votes? Face it any vote you make that doesn’t go to the winner is “wasted”.

There are very few major differences between the 2 that will impact your life. The liberals are winning by pushing their social agenda through the courts and both parties are converging in regards to economic matters.

What’s the US population now over 300 million? It’s stupid to think that just 2 parties can represent the diversity of beliefs with a body politic that size. Unfortunately, the cards are stacked against any 3rd or 4th parties.

Refusing to participate is a valid "free-speech choice" at least in how in relates to "voting for the lesser of 2 evils". Politicians ought to earn your vote not demand it.

So vote or don’t vote the choice is yours to make.

1. Balance the budget without raising taxes.
Thats just about impossible in the time frame.
2. Capture OBL.
Thats a possibility
3. Begin closure of all permanent US overseas bases.

Reno...hmmmm...Waco...Ruby Ridge....who knows what else...

Personaly I think the "Patriot Act" is just the begining of the end of our freedoms.  Nothing patriotic about establishing secret police.

Even before the Patriot Act, Ashcroft started working on obscenity cases.

WRT Ruby Ridge... yeah... that was messed up... but Waco and Koresh was something different.

Why compare to Janet the Terrible?
It's simple.  Reno sucked, Ashcroft sucks.

All I was going with was looks. At least with Ashcroft I know he's a man unlike Reno. Geez she even sounded like a tranny when she spoke.

Well... Ashcroft is a man and Reno looks like one. Mr. Happy isn't interested in either.

Never said I was interested just that at least I know which gender is being represented. Thank goodness that all women aren't created equal.

1.  Balance the budget without raising taxes.

me too but make economic reform boom the business and let extra revenue take care of it

2.  Capture OBL.

agreed but if he is isolated and cut off that's just as good for now

3.  Begin closure of all permanent US overseas bases.

sure lets just become isolationists again and let some world power threaten europe AGAIN and have to bail the world out AGAIN.

better than that why dont we just cut ALL aid to foreign countrys who dont deserve it.  Keep our billions of dollars for aids that the UN is whining about and dump it into something worthwhile at home.

4.  Fire Ashcroft.

BLA BLA BLA BLA

They are big boys now, look at their leaders strut.  Let them pay for their own defense.

If you think the amount of money we spend on UN aid even comes close to what we spend on our vastly oversized military budget, you are sorely mistaken.

yea but if we are downsizing our military and closing bases why not kill the aid to all these countrys that hate us as well.

When we give 15billion to aids help and the UN is pissed cause it comes w/ strings that tells me its time to start taking care of our own.  Do we even spend 15billion on Americans w/ aids?


and yes those are tounges....my evil christian upbringings forbid me from translating ;)
