If you vote for John McCain and think you are going to get anything more than an egotistical, heroic, stubborn,
working-with-both-sides-of-the-aislesmaverick who believes in lower taxes and a strong military, you are sadly
mistaken. What you see is what you get.
If you vote for Barack Obama and think you are going to get a President who is anything but a product of the Saul
Alinsky school of Rules for Radicals, a Southside Chicago politician who promises fresh change yet surrounds
himself with Southside Chicago-like strong arm professionals, a Marxist who refuses to release anything of his past
that could illuminate his true designs on America, a backbone-lacking, chameleon-like, work-for-hire opportunist who
has a decades-old record of horrible judgment when it comes to mentors and close friends, then you are sadly
mistaken. What has been will be.
Historically, one side has tried to balance the size of government with personal responsibility. The other side talks
about personal responsibility but does everything possible to grow the size of government.
Historically, one side hates war and terrorism enough that it is willing to risk being unpopular to fight terrorism where
it originates. The other side believes in talking tough about dictatorships and terrorism, but trying to peacefully
coexist with them and even deny that they will hurt us.
Historically, one side has sought to build stronger domestic energy
supplies while seeking cleaner sources of energy. The other side
continues to champion “green” causes while pushing for greater taxation
and bureaucracy of domestic energy suppliers, thereby causing one of
history’s greatest wealth transfers that has potentially weakened our
economy beyond repair.
Recent history shows us that one side has been willing to expose
corruption in Washington, Wall Street and Main Street, even to it own
party’s detriment. The other side talks about getting rid of corruption, yet
continues to brazenly refuse to investigate the true causes of recent
economic meltdowns while protecting, at all costs, the reputations and
relationships of corrupt politicians and their friends.
Historically, one side at least attempts to stop the drive to increase
taxes. The other side hasn't met a new tax that it doesn't like and won't
do whatever it takes to enact it.
It’s time to choose new leadership. Just don’t use the excuse that you are surprised at what the new
leadership does.
You have the past as a guide.

- “You can fool all the people some of the time, and some of the people all the time,
but you cannot fool all the people all the time.”
—Abraham Lincoln
- If you vote for the current slate of Republican senators and congress
people, you are generally going to get a raucous band of men and
women who often want to do right and reflect the will of the people back
home, yet who are too often overwhelmed by the bright lights of
Washington and unable to break through the massive stone walls of the
mainstream, thoroughly-liberal-biased media.
If you vote for the current slate of Democrat senators and congress
people, you are going to get people who are bought and paid for by the
MoveOn.org-Pelosi-Reid machine who promised a new integrity, but
have ushered in one of the most shameless, strong-arm, corrupt
systems to rival even the days of past Democrat leadership,
- "The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over
and over and expecting it to come out different."
—Attributed to both Benjamin Franklin and Albert Einstein

OLD QUOTES AND TODAY'S POLITICIANS
...More of My Two Cents on the Election
I love reading old quotations that speak as strongly to me today and when I was first introduced to them, and
especially when they remain as true now as in the past.
In the current presidential election, if the United States make its decision based on promises, perception and spin,
rather than history, reputation and character, we deserve exactly what we get.

Reid-Pelosi came to power in 2006 on
one major campaign promise, to end
the war in Iraq. They have stood firmly
in the way of the successful surge and
domestic energy drilling, and their
popularity continues to plummet. More
of the same after 2008?
