Stop Jerking My Chain DEMS & GOP

Well ... the dam had to break at some point ... let's take an honest look at what has been going on. As an Independent and a man that is widowed, lost his only child to war, middle class, former 8 years in the Marines, I feel that I can speak from a lot of different perspectives.

First, any assault on any person, over what is nothing more than a figure head is impossible for me to understand, especially in the view that our system is set-up with several guards against total control, including the people of the United States, ITSELF.

Maybe it is time that "we the people, in order to perform a more perfect union", should turn off the immediate media and look at the hearts of the candidates themselves. Reality is, there are plenty of organizations out there to give us all the facts that we need to know. Organizations that give you the truth about both sides and their personal attacks, campaign attacks and allow YOU THE VOTER, to be informed.

At some point, WE THE PEOPLE, need to understand that more is at stake than our pure self-absorbing attitudes. I have watched all of this very close. I have looked at both sides of view and both, disagreed and agreed, with both parties.

Here is what I do not agree with and think are wrong:

1) I'll be "Gosh Darn It" Barack if your going to take my gun at any expense. If this country saw fit to put a M-16 in my hands at 17 and ask me to defend this country for eight years ... then I don't think I need your permission to have one now. I don't feel that registry is needed to veterans, unless it has been determined they are "thrown off to begin with." Of course, to every rule there must be an exception, so leave that to Judges to determine if there is an actual threat to the country or others. Not every felony, (under current laws) means you are a threat to others. In this day and age, spitting on the sidewalk or having AIDS and throwing your gum on sidewalk can somehow be construed as a Felony. I know a man who did nothing more than throw his cup of coffee across the room, being pi**ed off at his spouse and got a Felony Conviction. How stupid of us all!

2) John McCain, you have to be the first man on the face of the earth, that wants to actually tax the US Citizen for receiving Health Benefits. Fact is, and you did not deny it, that you want to tax me for my Employer giving me Full Health Coverage, which amounts to about $10,000 per year. With current rates and NO TAX INCREASE, I will pay about $2900 / year in taxes on that, to which my employers has a corporate 'Write Off'. I Mr. McCain needs to do a better job at what exactly are the current tax rates, what write offs are current and understand what exactly the middle class really consist of. (P.S. Lou Dobbs - you are NOT middle class, so who cares what you think, you and your Joe the Plumber, are full of C**P.)

3) Sarah Palin, you need to speak less and listen more! Fact is, you have NO CLUE how to run Parliamentary Procedure in the Senate, have NO CLUE to important Supreme Court decisions and have NO CLUE to what it is to be a Patriotic person. Fact is, you have been part and parcel to a Party which wants to rip a star off the flag and have your own Country. The AIP, was founded by a man who denounced the US Government, is an anti-US Government party and would love nothing more than to remove themselves from the Union. Your husband and you are neither Republican or Democratic. Sarah Palin joined a Party for nothing more than money and to have steal the rewards of 50 years of 49 other States Federal Funds to build her own Presidency of an Independent Country. Look up the Alaskans Independent Party and read their Goals and Objectives, Sarah is their Beloved Child of the Founder.

4) Neither, Obama or McCain are correct on their perspectives of how to handle Foreign Relations with our enemies or allies. First, McCain has this kick a**, take our kids lives attitude and run us into debt, unless you want to do things his way. Well ... the last guy with that attitude put us in a World War ... so just leave that idea at the Arizona ranch, since WE THE PEOPLE think your full of insane actions. By the way, nothing has ever stopped a person from picking up a telephone and calling a World Leader and asking, 'so what's up". Obama, let's be real, you aren't going to meet with John on the corner of W. 19st and S. State at 1:00 am without knowing what exactly John McCain ants to talk about. In fact, you probably would not show up unless you had a firm objective and common ground to discuss. In other words, just be realistic and at least try and represent the PEOPLE of both the USA and those people that you may end up taking the lives of later. John, your just too hot headed and expect that everything should be done your way and no other, your a very BAD representative of what and how WE THE PEOPLE want to be perceived as. Get this John McCain, we are SICK AND TIRED of being the WORLD POLICE and if you are elected, you better get our money back ten fold from Iraq and not in some sort of Democracy, I want it back in HARD CASH! Fact is, those people have been fighting with each other for over 1000 years, think you are going to make ANY DIFFERENCE?

5) Both of you are WRONG on Abortion and so are all of you on both sides. First, stop spreading them and you will reduce the problem. Second, all you pro-life people need to step up and be required to file with a National Database, so if a some woman does not want a child ... then the burden is on you without any tax benefits or credits, in other words you are totally on your own. Second, I am not sure where it is lost, but the last time I checked, "created equal, that they are endowed by their creator with CERTAIN UNALIENABLE RIGHTS, among these rights are LIFE, LIBERTY and the PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS. Now that is in the Preamble of the Constitution, which comes long before any other words. I DO NOT believe or think that in any way it is my duty, responsibility or right to tell anyone, especially a woman over her body what I think about it. I have plenty of my own problems and bad past judgements, without being an expert on someone Else's decision making. MIND YOUR OWN DAMN BUSINESS!!

Well ... that is my opinion .. which is cheap, but true ... since I listen to THE PEOPLE, before I jump any direction.
