Time For Serious Conversation



What's that old joke? Now that we have established what you are, now we can negotiate the price.

All kidding aside, now that we have established what the Democratic party is, undemocratic, equality for all (if you are male), it is time to have serious conversation about one of the most important elections in my lifetime.

After 8 years of the W administration, we have a lot of work to do. W and cheney have amassed an unprecedented amount of power in the Executive branch of the government, not a good thing.

The exec branch has the right to listen to phone calls of the citizens without a warrant, with the Patriot Act, there is a clause known as the "sneak & peak, which allows government agents to enter without a warrant your home, business, or other property, look around and then obtain a warrant on what they saw. Let us not forget that the exec branch has the right to pickup any citizen as an enemy combatant and hold them without benefit of a lawyer, a phone call to their families, or even know why they are being detained. Have any abuses taken place so far? Unknown, don't know if we will ever get a real answer.

That my friend is a shit load of power, it is the power of a king or dictator. No checks no balance. No democracy.

THINK
Do you want to entrust this much power into the hands of BO? Do you trust him? Can you trust him? If he is willing to disenfranchise millions of voters in Florida and Michigan and cheat in the caucuses, to steal the primary, is he what you want for President?
Don't forget he sat 20 years in the pews at Reverend Wright's church, listening to the good rev rant and rail about "god damn America".

He is willing to say anything to get elected, but look into his eyes, there is no one home.

Bo "preaches", be your brother's keeper, but his half brother, George lives in ramshackle hut and is hungry most of the time and he does not have the decency to reach out to help him. Ask yourself, will he take care of our young men and women in the military if he won't help his own blood?

Bo is a snake oil salesman. He promises cures for all your ills but has no concrete plans to do so. Snake oil, my friends, snake oil.
The Dems will win a majority in the House and Senate, this election. Is it a good idea to have one party rule both the Executive branch and Legislative branch. Remember what happened with Republican dominance of both?
