twItch^, I agree the Republicans have dropped the conservative ball on quite a few issues most notably in federal spending. I am extremely disappointed with the party on that score, truly. I will even go so far as to say a part of me wants to see them punished. The only thing that holds me back is my concern for the future of this country. However to use your analogy, if my car mechanic is doing routinely poor job I would not take it to a bicycle repair shop expecting better results. That is really what I'm faced with in this election. FYI, Krauthammer was critical of the choice of Gov Palin precisely on the inexperience issue. The terrorism point is an interesting one indeed. I am certainly one who has said Gore would have been disastrous in the moments and weeks after 9/11. Do I think we would not have survived as a result? Of course not. But I seriously doubt he would have invaded Afghanistan and I'm sure we can all agree he would not have gone into Iraq. What I really think he would have done is do what Clinton did after the first attack which is to treat the terrorists like bank robbers. He would have pursued them with probably no more than special forces here and there attempting to track down a handful of those "responsible". Once he got a few I believe he would have handed them over to the courts and have them prosecuted much like was done under Clinton. I think he would have declared victory and moved on. [quote]Seriously, folks, I just want this country to stop being so absolutely divided. I see an Obama presidency as a possible way of achieving this. I do not see that with McCain or Palin. That's what it all comes down to.[/quote]How can one disagree with the desire for unity? I share that wholeheartedly with you. Just read the article I posted about the deep divisions in this country. Some dismissed it as just us vs. them rhetoric but here you state we are "absolutely divided". I want and wish for us to desire the best for this country and once the election is over that we pull together and work toward that goal. You will see me filling the role of the "loyal opposition". You will not hear, nor have you heard, me denigrating the other side unfairly because at the end of the day we are all Americans and that is our common ground. . . . : [url=http://www.bugimus.com][img]http://www.bugimus.com/sigs/small-sig1.gif[/img][/url] : . .
