Where is this Redneckida of which you speak? My half-black wife from Venezuala and I would love to go there sometime for a visit... maybe we could take some arapas and fried plantains and have a picnic.

Here's an interesting quote:

"The fact that we are here today to debate raising America's debt limit is a sign of leadership failure. It is a sign that the US Government cannot pay its own bills. It is a sign that we now depend on ongoing financial assistance from foreign countries to finance our Government's reckless fiscal policies. Increasing America's debt weakens us domestically and internationally. Leadership means that, the buck stops here. Instead, Washington is shifting the burden of bad choices today onto the backs of our children and grandchildren. America has a debt problem and a failure of leadership. Americans deserve better."
~ Senator Barack H. Obama, March 2006!

Well, seriously, when your own government starts spending money like there is no tomorrow, doesn't it make you wonder just a little bit about what the heck is REALLY going on? Does everyone who gets to be in control of the purse strings of this country just go insane when they take office? Or do these people just know something about tomorrow that we don't?

Sorry, but I guess I just hope for logical answers to the obvious insanity that I see. The people in government can't possibly believe that the welfare of this country can be sustainable staying on the path we are on now. With the amount of money owed, and more debt being accumulated every year, what is it about the concept "bankrupt" that they just do not understand?

I dunno, maybe deep down in side, most people really do realize the deep doo-doo we are in, and would rather vote for someone who will give them pleasant sounding lies, instead of the brutally painful truth. Well, someone lying about the cliff they threw you over won't make the ground any softer feeling when you finally hit it.

Hypocrite much?


I vote Ron Paul. Say what you want about him, but he is the only candidate that has run in just about the last century, that isn't for sale to the highest bidder. He is the only candidate that is even remotely interested in us keeping our freedom granted under the constitution and bill of rights. The banks know this, congress knows this, and the multitude of federal agencies created over the last 100 years know this. They are scared, and that is why they control the media, and the election process. To stop an honest person from getting back into power. A person that just might be able to make this country the power that it once was., and do it without another revolution.

I say anyone who votes for Obama again, has proved they are just as communist as he is, and we should take away their citizenship, and send them to communist China, so they can get a first hand taste of what our rights and freedoms actually afforded them.

We have some seriously stupid people in this Country.

How is he a communist? Do you even know what a communist is???? He has some socialistic views on things....this is true....out country does have some socialist policies....teachers.....police....firemen....mili tary....general infrastucture we all rely on....do you want to do without....I agree if you think we can do without these things you are stupid....

HA HA HA this from someone who's user name starts with DUM.

Lets take a look at the definitions, shall we...

Definition of SOCIALISM
1
: any of various economic and political theories advocating collective or governmental ownership and administration of the means of production and distribution of goods
2
a : a system of society or group living in which there is no private property b : a system or condition of society in which the means of production are owned and controlled by the state
3
: a stage of society in Marxist theory transitional between capitalism and communism and distinguished by unequal distribution of goods and pay according to work done


Definition of COMMUNISM
1
a : a theory advocating elimination of private property b : a system in which goods are owned in common and are available to all as needed
2
a : a doctrine based on revolutionary Marxian socialism and Marxism-Leninism that was the official ideology of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics b : a totalitarian system of government in which a single authoritarian party controls state-owned means of production c : a final stage of society in Marxist theory in which the state has withered away and economic goods are distributed equitably


Some might say that there is a very fine line separating the two above. I would tend to agree, except that the Obama admin has proved beyond reasonable doubt that they want an absolute "single authoritarian party", which falls right in line with Communism. All you have to do is read the NDAA, SOPA, and other acts created in the last 4 years to see that. Well, if you're smart enough anyway.


Now lets take a look at Capitalism...

Definition of CAPITALISM
: an economic system characterized by private or corporate ownership of capital goods, by investments that are determined by private decision, and by prices, production, and the distribution of goods that are determined mainly by competition in a free market


Is not the latter exactly what our constitution and bill of rights was intended to accomplish? So how do you figure we're socialist? I know with the welfare state we are in, it may SEEM to you like we are, but we are not. The simple fact that banks and big business are allowed to have influence on our government goes totally against what the definition of socialism is.

Try again little man.
