Democrats - the Worst of All Worlds
Last November, for the first time ever, I voted for all Democrats. I’ve usually voted almost all Republican. However, on this ballot, I felt that whatever tax increases the Democrats might pass would be better than the war in Iraq. So I voted for them, in hopes that they would stand up to President Bush’s crazy plan.
Now, however, I realize I was completely wrong. Not only are the allowing Bush to continue the war, but they’re throwing in an extra $20B in farm aid, social programs, and Federal hurricane relief!
This is the worst of all worlds! Because I didn’t vote Republican, we’ve got both a stubborn, silly war and increased taxes for ridiculous social programs. I should have voted Republican. I don’t agree with Bush, but at least he does what he says he will. The democrats say that they’ll stand up to Bush and then they fall over like a bunch of dominoes.
I’m such an idiot.

Awesome post! I agree 100%… voting Republican is the way to go. Just because you don’t like Bush, doesn’t mean a Democrat would be better. There are better Republicans. Thanks!

[...] Alas, it seems that the great Backtrack Obama is losing his luster. He’s listening to advisors that say he should be more moderate so that he doesn’t alienate the middle. That’s not change. That’s politics as usual. Why would anyone vote for a guy who wants to continue the war and raise taxes too? So much for Mr. Change. Don’t forget that Democrats have a tradition of not keeping promises. [...]

C’mon dude…I’ve no love for either party. The only way to make a decision is a critical look at the issues and the candidates. And in the age of information all the data is just a click away.
I get the farm subsidy…clearly pork, but you’re critical of federal Hurricane relief?!!! WTF?
