This is normal... if you are running as an incumbent, you are suppose to go on the offensive just like anyone else that is running for the same office... I hope he loses... I have grown to really dislike him over 3 years... I was one of those people that liked him even though I didn't approve of where he is taking this country... now I dislike him and still don't approve of where he is taking this country... and I am not the only one... the reason I dislike him is strangely enough, what he keeps pushing for... I hope he keeps pushing for it, the big idiot, because I suspect it will continue to make a lot more people dislike him....
those are some sobering statistics about the direction of our country.
as well, we are losing our freedoms, one at a time:
In targeting and killing an American citizen, without going to the bother of indicting and convicting him in a court of law, we have stripped all Americans of what little protection they have left against the depredations of a tyrannical government. The authorities can read our emails, listen to our phone calls, and rifle through our garbage – all in the name of our endless “war on terrorism” – and now they can kill us, too, without even a nod to legality. Nor do they have to reveal the reasons for our summary execution: it’s all “secret,” because, after all, they have to protect their “sources and methods.”
we have a government that has secret "supercommittees", trying to push laws and operating in secret, a congress which passes bills it hasn't read, hit squads operating in secret, and secret patriot act provisions.
we have courts that won't review actions-- But Judge John Bates dismissed the lawsuit, stating he lacked the authority to get involved, ruling “There are circumstances in which the (president’s) unilateral decision to kill a U.S. citizen overseas is…judicially UNREVIEWABLE.”
The Obama administration maintains that none of this matters as long as the proper secret procedures are followed... (yikes)
Obama is a neo-con, big government, anti-libertarian.
And the Republican candidate will be too.
Ron Paul was our only hope, and he's too old and unelectable.
So if you liked the last 10 years of the way the country has been going, congratulations. We've got a few more years of unnecessary and costly wars to come, coupled with our ever increasing national debt and our ever decreasing civil liberties.
Have a nice day.
