Some thoughts about the election

[longeyes]

This will be remembered as the election where kids and chicks ruled.  Rent WILD IN THE STREETS for a dark laugh.

I'm old enough to not want the taxes I pay when I sell my house determined by shopaholic mall rats with little or no earned stake in America and zero understanding of economics, just consumption.  If this is a Republic, it's failed; what I see is mob rule disguised as hope and change.

This nation doesn't need reform; it needs a colonic.  And I suspect it will get one.

Basically America has 24 hours to decide if we really want to continue being America or become a social democracy like the failed states of Europe, who mostly survive on the largess of the USA

That is brilliant, sad pathetic true but brilliant.

We were heading that way anyway, the handbasket will just pick up speed with Obama and the Dems in total control.

I find myself getting angrier and angrier at the Stupid Party.  Swept into leadership by the electorate in 1994 (imho as a backlash to Billy Jeff getting elected in '92), they then pissed away ALL their moral authority.  They've proven themselves unworthy to govern, regardless of any lip service they give to limited government and the Constitution.  If they had kept the faith, they'd have kept the reins.  But NOOOOOOOO....... they were just as besotted with power as the Evil Party ever was.  If it weren't for the Supreme Court vacancies, I'd call "A pox on both your houses!", and deal with the tax burden.  As it is, I shudder to think of the changes BHO will wreak on the judiciary.  George Will has captured the essence:

"The almost erotic pleasure of spending money that others have earned and saved is one reason people put up with the tiresome aspects of political life."

McCain/Palin win.  It won't be close.

Grampster, on what do you base that prediction?

I have it on good authority that Grampster was writing headlines for the Chicago Tribune on Nov. 3, 1948.
