That could be interpreted in many ways. I interpret the current Administration's big-spending to be the real enemy within. It's time for Democrats to get off their "free everything for everyone" mentality and understand that the dollars tied to that Agenda are the very vehicle that will be our undoing.

I have no problems with any of my friends who have a different political idealogy unless they reported me to the government for doing nothing other than exercising my rights. But we will never get to that point - flag@whitehouse.gov.

The person across the street is the biggest threat. The Republicans are a far bigger threat to me and my family than Ben Laden will ever be. Ben Laden attacked America for one day. The Republicans attack America EVERYDAY.

Just look at today as the Looney Right celebrated America NOT getting the Olympics. They don't care if Americans don't get the jobs that would have been generated, as long as they can be "Right".

Their leader can do no wrong. He is immune from all of that corruption you speak of.
Who would you rather have in the White House? A useless "caretaker" like McCain? An idiotess like Palin? Your side has NOBODY and NO IDEAS to offer the country! They are just a collection of angry old white people who are pissed off at the fact the country is changing whether they like it or not.
