Grand slam.

Im going to vote for Obama, but I still cant believe we get another
dose of Clinton tomorrow night. This all reeks of positioning for 2012
or 2016. And some of the Hillary supporters seemed less than happy
about any of it.

Well, she is a politician, after all, and running for office is what
politicians do.

On another note, she spoke of getting the countries finances together
and then of "affordable health care for all!" With Social Security on
the brink, Medicare even worse and the national debt, where on earth
is money for national health care gonna come from?

I hear there's this silly war in Iraq that we're spending a few bucks
a day on. Could it be that there may be better uses for that money?


All I really heard was Bush blew the world and now we will do better!
Fair enough, but how is anyone gonna stop China or India, or any of
the other countries who are now catching up with the USA? It aint so
easy as that, especially with all the fossil fuels being sought after
by those same emerging nations.

Why is it necessary to "stop" China or India or any of those other
countries who are catching up to us? Is the good ol' USA the only
country that's allowed to prosper? World prosperity just might be a
good thing for all concerned, you know. As far as it not being easy to
do better, would you rather continue down the same road we're on now?
Of course it won't be easy, and eight years of the Bush administration
has made it a lot harder. But isn't this country supposed to be all
about progress and overcoming challenges? Where's your confidence in
your beloved USA? Instead of crying about the competition for fossil
fuels (do you think we should be entitled to first dibs on them?),
this should be looked upon as a great opportunity to free ourselves
from those fuels, which will only make the world a cleaner and better
place.
