Voting for the lesser of two evils? I honestly think we're doing ourselves a disservice and delaying the inevitable in electing any Democrat or Republican. I'm sick of both parties. I know it sounds like suicide but seriously people need to wake up and smell the corruption of both parties and the depravity of our politics. I spoke to a fellow Christian and he was very apathetic to the idea of politics and honestly could care less. This is quite common today and the ONLY way it changes is with people getting shocked out of their comma. In the lower levels of government I think Rep. and Dem. represent different mind sets but honestly when you get to the tip top they are synonymous with one another. I know others, including Matthew, disagree with me but the only difference between us is our toleration point and mine broke a while back. So in due time others will shift also. Both parties are beyond salvation and even if they are not, we should not masquerade around with either of their names! The only good things I see Bush in doing is seating the Justices he did, lowering taxes and helping our economy out of the Clinton recession and doing something about 9/11 - It's more than what any Dem. would've done. However, he's a global economist, has done absolutely NOTHING to protect our borders and stop the hordes of illegal aliens, and in dozens of ways failed our troops in this supposed "War on Terror". I realize the media and a fascistic Dems. don't help but really he went from hero to zero in this last term. Do we even have a president anymore? I realize I'm being somewhat of an idealist here but we've got to do something about this cycle of Dem. then Rep. I'm currently watching THE WAR by Ken Burns it is astounding what our "boys" had to go through in WWII. Millions of Japs and Italians were interned right here in America. It was an all out war in which our media exonerated the military and loved them! How far we've fallen from that. Now every war is just like Vietnam in the media's and Dems. eyes. And the Rep. know little about WAR - as they all play their "I was in the Vietnam war/ Coast Guard" cards. What party then should we elect? I know, good question. I realize what I'm saying, but you've also got to consider the options? I'm curious about the goal in general. Is the strategy to vote for Rep. until some third party comes along, because they wont if we just keep voting this way. Once my generation in the popular vote we'll see how things change. These red diaper doper babies (communist, intoxicated, baby boomers) is the reason for the ills in our government. I know my generation will do better; couldn't be any worse than our parents. Believe me I want an answer is much as anyone else does and am not walking around with this proudly - I'm rather reluctant. Ideally though everything beings from the bottom up and we need to train ourselves and our families in what is good and true. And then we take these and apply them in our communities and church. And then we vote at the ballot and in how we live. Then hopefully one of those kids will grow up to be a good member of our government. Is this the game we’re to continue playing?
