Politicians are born liars & do not care what you are I think until in need of your vote & a contribution, once they get it, they want to hear nothing from you until the next election. both parties are willing to missmanage your tax dollars & tell you the things they think your little ears wants to hear.

When The President chose to lie about the threat of Iraq & about treating POWS humanely knowing he had outsourced them to be tortured, Congress chose to shirk their duty to impeach the president & sweep it all under the rug by by issuing a pardon of all war crimes with the passage of The Military Commission Act of 2006, yet Bill Clinton was impeached over a mutual sex act between 2 adults. Do not try to say Clinton lied because the legal & bilogical definition of sex is intercourse between make & female & unless you can prove intercourse occurred, there was no sex act & therefore no lie under oath.

The Democrats promised to hold The president & his cromies accountable. Go back to the initial invasion of Iraq March 2003. The U S military found hundreds of million dollars of U S currency in Iraq. What happen to it ? How do you account for losing almost $9-12 billion dollars in cash of tax payer's money in Iraq ? Where are the WMDS the president said he has proof of & would prove it by disarming Saddam & removing stockpiles to justify over 4,000 troops being killed & over 23,000 injured ?

Why would you expect the Iraqi people to stand up, when there is no consequence to do so when they can lay back & allow American troops to assume the risks ? With no time table for exit, The Iraqi people have no reason to do anything ? Didn't The Presidet say from day 1 he had a plan & exit strategy ? Oh wait, the plan is, let another president resolve it, so he can blame them for the failed policy & stupidity of invading in the first place.

How many lives of the military are you willing to give up before enough is enough in Iraq ? 58,000 & 1 ? One of the best ways to end the war is to have a military draft with no deferrments that includes all Americans of all ages, the blind, the crippled, the insane & all political parties including politicians & judges this allows equality under The U S Constitution & allows everyone to serve in the mess created by a war based on lies. The next solution is to fund the war based soley only the purchase of war bonds, this allows the war supporters to put their money where their mouth is & fund the war. It's pretty asinine to say you support the war, yet whine your personal income taxes may be raised, afterall wars are funded by tax pay dollars & you can't support the troops or the war if you cut off the funds. Either solution would make the war supporters call for an end the war because the cowards are only brave when they can rant in safety while others take the risks.

I can't see how one is supportive of the troops simply by running out to a retail store purchasing a U S flag pin or U S flag made in China, nor can I see the logic of saying The president was right to invade another country that did nothing to the USA, then you whine like a hypocrite about illegal immigration as being invaders. If you support the war, the troops need your help, you must hurry go enlist. Sitting behind your computer risking nothing is not support. Sean Insannity, Bill O' Silly, Ann Coulter & Rush Limpballs are in no hurry to serve, yet do not mind someone else assuming the risks. Mr. Romney made it clear, his children ae too good to serve & serve the country by campaigning on his behalf. Romney told the truth. Wealthy children are less likely to volunteer to lay in a foxhole to earn PFC wages when they can work on Wall street or the family business, afterall war is created by the elite for the less educated & often minorities to die in. Pat Tilman was an exception of the rule not the norm.

Congress is spineless & surrendered to fear trading in The U S Constitution for a dictatorship to empower 1 individual. The Military Commission Act should be used to teach Congress a lesson & the next president should round all Congress members up, along with judges, their political enemies & detain them under the law to teach them never to pass a law giving 1 person absolute power.Absolute power breeds corruption. J Edgar Hoover proved that. The Military Commission Act & parts of The Patriot Act should be revoked, but Congress is spineless & caved into fear of not being patriotic. This is not to suggest The President should overthrow the government, this is to show Congress how they put lack of thought in passing a measure that empowers 1 person with absolute power. Under The Military Commission act, Congres virtually allows a president to throw anyone under the bus that does not see things his way. It could lead to an abuse of power if not revoked.

In the 1950's another nut tried labeling those that opposed his ideology as communists, much like Faux Fairytale Nooze Channel tried labeling those that oppose the war & The president as anti american & not patriotic, yet had no problem for 15 years bashing President Clinton.Free speech includes disagreeing with the government & politicians doesn't it or does that only apply to countries we invade & spread freedom & democracy ?

Will the next president have the guts to close down the U S embassy in Iraq, remove all the military & americans occupying the land to be ordered out ? Will Congress have the guts to hold a president accountable under the checks & balances of The U S constitution & impeach him for offenses that violates the law ? The U S Constitution makes no mention od censoring the president & elected officials for crimes. The remedy is clear for violations & requires expulsion for Congress members & impeachment for the President, VP & federal judges . If Congress lacks the will to do their duty, they should resign & immediately let the people hold elections to replace them. Signing statements should be illegal. The president takes an oath to defend the law of the land & if he finds a law he disagrees with he too has a remedy. He can veto the bill or he can challenge a law in court to see if it holds water.

The farse of Congress seeing the same intel as the president is truly laughable, one would think The President sees far greater detailed intelligence reports & certain Congress members getting access to just maybe the same info if not watered down. If The president came to Congress & said he or she needed Congress's aproval to use force against a plausible threat, most in Congress would probably vote to do so, on the premise The President was telling the truth. 5 years later, too many admissions on the record, on the Internet for all to see several lies were told & this was indeed a war for oil.

How many U S companies are getting oil from Iraq ? How many politicians or their family members are making money off the war at the expense of U S troops occupying Iraq ? If you examine your 401k plan, your employer maybe indirectly earning money off the war as well through investments.

On NAFTA, if it were such a terrible idea as The GOP claims, why didn't they pass a bill in the last 12 years they controlled Congress to revoke it ? In fact why didn't they pass a bill to revoke it in the last 6 years when they controlled Congress under a republican president ? Both parties like outsourcing. Why give comanies that outsourse tax breaks ?

You can forget sealing the borders as well. Hispanics are the 2nd largest voting base & neither party will do anything to offend that voting base, both parties pander to get the votes.

Gas & oil is not a tricky subject at all. How are oil companies reaping in record billions of dollars in profits & paying multi million dollar retirement packages to to CEO's if they claim they are not price gauging ? Why would you want to drill for oil in Alaska, use it all up, allow your supplies to run low or out completely then go back to depending on foreign oil, instead of requiring oil companies to use & find alternatives to oil ? The truth is , both political parties have no will to take on the oil companies, they are beholding to oil companies because the big companies stuff money in their pockets & campaigns ? Until Congress elect honest people willing to take away the windfall profits of companies that refuse to invest in alternative energy, the companies will continue the status quo & stick it to the consumers at the pumps. This also applies to HMO's. Politicians are too corrupt & allow lobbyist's to bribe them & write laws beneficial the big companies while sticking it to the people & its usually the poor & middle class that get stuck.

Social Security worked well until both parties raided it to fund other programs. Repay social security what it is owed & the program is solvent.

How can you justify spending $12 billion in Iraq then allow Americans to go homeless, military vets to depend on govternment assistance to feed their families, vets waiting in line to get on a waiting list to get medical treatment at a clinic & runaway teens that line the streets of big cities prostituting themselves to get drugs or find a place to sleep at night ?

Politicians promise a lot & deliver very little. Maybe all politicians need to be paid less than minimum wage & them The american People can tip them as you would a waitress based on performance & service. It's pretty asine to allow Congress to pay themselves & issue raises & COLA for being unable to work a 5 day , 40 hour work week with even occassional overtime to justify their salary. Why pay Congress for stalemating 1 another bickering & achieving very little ?

Now you have a few things to think about when you go out & vote. Are you willing to end the occupation of Iraq completely ? Pay the Iraqis for what this country destroyed & get completely out of Iraq ? Are you willing to vote for candidates that will revoke The Patriot Act & Military Commission Acts & restore The U S Constitution ?
