Those people don't deserve to be Americans, to allow the nation to suffer to win an election is SAD.

Sad Bush grew the government more than any president in history
Sad Bush increased our debt more than any president in history
Sad some people now are trying to rewrite history... used to work

Sad Obama has no backbone
Sad Obama like all before him will not secure our borders
Sad Obama plays to other countries as much as he does
Sad now people blame Obama for the debt we are in...
Sad now people blame Obama for big government...
SAD because he has enough shit that he should be blamed for without trying to pile on shit he didnt have anything to do with.

I am not a Republican, I am not a Democrat, I am not a Tea Bagger and I find the libertarian party to be ignorant as well. What is left? None of them give a damn about us, only their own special interest groups. Follow the dollar.

Why is it people want to be extreme to one side or the other?

Healthcare... I see as a national security issue, a sick country is a weak country. Solution??? there really is only one but to do it the way it was done was ignorant. Call me a softy even, I hate seeing anyone getting sicker because they cannot afford healthcare. Our nation is better than that!

Taxes, too fucking high, BUT could be fixed, if we the people would make them stop the bullshit. Make votes simple, one item only, no adding pork after the votes like Bush did and I expect others have too. No voting on a bill called one thing and loaded with buillshit to play political games. Then look at a better system.

Our borders and immigration, secure our borders. Deport as found. Stop insulting the Americans that came here the right way and worked hard to become Americans. We take more immigrants than any nation on the planet already, if people wont come legally throw their asses out, simple. Of course all parties have allowed this for years to keep wages low.

McCain, I had high hopes till he got stupid and selected Palin for vp, nothing wrong with a woman in office, just the lack of real thought put into his selection. As someone said, shame he didnt run instead of Bush. Since he lost he has become even more wormy.

Obama, I saw him as a bit of a racist based on many items like his preachers words, that he claimed to never hear. I know some folks sleep through church but come on, BS. I think it even shows in his administrations recent actions to fly off the handle and force someone to resign before actually getting the facts. Without any spin at all the knee jerk response said a lot. Yes as many see on the boards, racism is alive and well, but please do not try to make it like it only goes one way. We need Debate some claim, BULLSHIT, get over it, forget it and let the next generation move forward without it. Continuing the "debate" continues the problem, that goes to all sides and races.

We need to end professional politicians, it was never the intent of our nations founders to have people who are politicians as a career. Term limits for them all, not just the president. It might be nice to also end paying them their salary for the rest of their lives that is something I only recently became aware of. They had the job and got paid, no longer in office, let them get another fucking job, I owe them nothing.

In general takebackthehill.com could be something that might interest some of you.

Consider this, most of the big problems on the planet come from extremist, religious or otherwise.

Good Luck to us all..... we all need it no matter what side of things you are on.
