I wish there was a party that believed in no foreign aid to other countries, a strong military, our borders secured, low taxes, no welfare to losers that scam the system, and concealed carry permits except for felons and thementally ill.
Don....you sound like you're looking for the Libertarian party.
But Don....did you REALLY say you'd institute socialized medicine??? Really? For all the views you showed above.....to promote big government getting involved in our healthcare matters, frankly,.....surprises me. I want WAY, WAY, WAAAAYYYYYYYYYYYY LESS government.
Teejay.....You asked...
What would have Gore done after 911? Give them a big ol "You better not do that again or else" pfft Al Gore please!
Or else "what"? He'd have done exactly what he and Bill did when our WTC was bombed the first time......and when the USS Cole was bombed.
NOTHING. In my opinion.....it's what's led the terrorists to think they're so empowered, today. Al and Bill (and all liberals) have forgotten the "Carry a big stick" part of the "walk soft" statement.
Germ....we agree on most but differ on our Iraq views, it seems. If GWB had invaded Afghanistan and stomped outOBL prior to 9/11 (therefore thwarting the attack on our country)....he'd have been considereda hero by many but still chastised by the left as being a "Hawk". In MY eyes....(along with many other Americans)....I think his PRE-EMPTIVE actions in Iraq did 2 things: No. 1 -- He crushed the threat of similar attacks by Sadaam Hussein. No. 2 -- He sent the message to other terrorist (and terror harboring) nations that we will not sit back while you prepare to mete out punishment on us by preparing your armies.
You think Lybia got the message?????
