I'm with you 100% about Romney being a warmongering fool who wants to continue doing what Obama is doing...Keep fighting and keep troops occupying these countries.
We won those 2 "wars" in a matter of days. But then our giant military industrial machine wanted to keep the money flowing so we did "nation building" and we're still there! Just like we are in Germany & Japan 70 years after WW2
Go check out what Libertarian candidate Gary Johnson says he will do (that's who I am voting for by the way):

Just go there for a couple of minutes and hear what he has to say. I think he makes more sense than Obama and Romney combined. |
There is nothing wrong at all with cutting spending, Hell I'm all for it.. The problem is the Right Wing tries to use that as their platform when if fact they never cut spending. The last 3 Republican presidents have increased spending by record numbers then try to call the tea pot black when they are the kettle.
You absolutely have to be an idiot, live in lala land or completely un-informed to actually believe the Republicans will ever "really" cut spending. (not aimed at you just at anyone in general)
The right always get on their high horse and blow the trumpet about spending cuts blahhblahh blahh on "social" services then they increase the spending on military & give tax cuts to the rich that they can't pay for.
It's the exact same cycle every Republican president since Reagan. Maybe before then but Reagan was my first personal experience with Republican president and even he knew in the end that he fucked up & had to raise taxes.
Give me a real "Physical" Conservative that will actually cut the budget sensibly and I'd vote for him no matter who he was or what party he was with. Everyone knows spending is too high but it's only too high on the shit this party or that doesn't care about.
Hell Clinton was a better "Physical" Conservative than any of the Republicans we have seen in the last 30 years. At least he put the budget back in control after the Reagan era spending and we would of been set up pretty well had Bush Jr not been elected.
