I feel like starting political flame war.

I cannot stomach the thought of a Democrat getting into office. It's not so much that I don't like abortion or gay marriage... it's the fact that they want a bigger government.

I am a firm believer that government should defend its constituents from other nations and from one another. I think it is a mistake that the government has involved itself in nearly every aspect of Americans' lives. Healthcare, education, retirement, welfare... the list goes on and on.

Unfortunately, these programs are already in place and there are so many people who rely on them. As my mother said, "That tube of toothpaste has already been squeezed." There's no going back.

It's a slippery slope that the US government is precariously peering over. If the government starts a state-sponsored healthcare program, and takes away our guns, that's a giant bound towards communism. It's a bad idea. I greatly appreciate my personal freedom.

flame on.

The whole bigger government thing is pure crap. The dems and the repubs are both sides of the same coin and you need to wake up and get beyond this simplified Rush Limbaugh view of what is going on. They both pass law to benefit corporate America over its own citizens, they both want to meddle in moral affairs, they both want to police the world (

Long story short: They are both utterly corrupt and neither will offer any real change or relief from the fact that THIS IS NOT THE AMERICA YOU LEARNED ABOUT IN GRADE SCHOOL. GROW UP.

There is a difference. Dems tell you they are taking your money up front and then **** you. Republicans butter you up and say they are for smaller government, but then dig in your pocket book when your not lookin.

Government run healthcare does scare me though...

I agree. Which is why I say the US government needs a great reduction in size/restructuring. I pretty much don't like any of the frontrunner candidates. Every last one of them wants to grow government control in some way or another.

If it were up to me, the government wouldn't have any involvement in business affairs, and we would not be a member of any organizations like the UN. World police? HELL NO.

after you squeeze toothepaste and its all crinkled you can run your fingers down the tube smoothing it out making it look new.

If it has only been used 1-3 times though //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif

O and I disagree with what you have stated.

I just basically have given up at this point. I don't see this lumbering juggernaut of distraction and misinformation undergoing a sea change of rational citizenship, so I did what every other slack jawed dumbfukk does instead of care about this country:

Buy some stuff.

Yeah this theory of absolute freedom to me makes no sense. Each side wants you to do things their way. They just pick their battles differently. As for me, I am a product of public schools. Without those I would probably be breaking my back to make ends meat whereas I am doing quite well pushing papers as a desk jockey. Not everything can be done well by the government, but they get it right sometimes. And ultra-nationalism usually has the same results as communism //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif
