Apache, I think you have missed what I was trying to say. First off you could pick your favorite talk show host, pundant, politician, ect and they would look like a left winger next to me.
To be clear I voted for president Bush both times, Bush senior, Ross Perot, and Reagan. I was relatively satisfied with Bush's first term and thats why I voted for him a second time,instead of staying home). In his first term he seemed to have a backbone, in his second term he started sounding like a liberal.
Even though I voted for him I will not fall in lock step and defend him just because thats what the Republicans say to do. I was sold a bill of goods that was nothing like what I was supposed to get.
When they place a hand on the bible and take these oaths,
"I do solemnly swear that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic, that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same: that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion, and I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter. So help me God."
"I do solemnly swear,or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States."
I expect them to do exactly what they say they are going to do, when 80% of the American people say they want to protect our borders and the president says basicly to kiss his ass, thats not protecting us from a foreign invasion. Thats grounds for impeachment. A person cant scream "war on terror" out of one side of his mouth and then say he wants open borders out of the other,it doesnt add up).
When he wanted to give port security over to a middle eastern country,Du Buy) and the people shot it down he threatend to use his veto pen for the first time. Thats protecting us?
I could go on all day but thats a start. He told us we were voting for a conservative. He my friend IS NOT a conservative by any stretch of the imagination. Unfortunately I dont see any on the horizon.
With respect to the gun grab in New Orleans, he is THE head of the executive branch and could have put a stop to that in a matter of minutes. Not only could he have done it, but you can see from the oath he took that it was his most important duty,to defend the constitution).
Im not saying he didnt do anything good because that would be untrue, but when you have 300,000,000 people in the country I do believe we could do better than what we have in all of goverment. Out of that many people and the job being so important we should be looking for perfection not the least worst.
Please dont fall into the trap of defending someone just because your party says too, or because you voted for him. The people need to start cleaning house when someone does a bad job and maybe we can get a fresh start before its to late.
I will vote against every incumbent reguardless of party just to get the people that are driving this country into the crapper out of here. Its all I can do at this point to save my country.
Sorry for the long post.
