Those things destroy themselves, as socialism is a cancer. You cant tax the rich when "there are no rich no more" as the song says.

When the system goes bankrupt supporting all the freeloaders and government fat cats people will have to assume responsibility for their own welfare, and of course they wont have the slightest clue how to do so, which as Europe has shown us the longer the dark day of reckoning is put off the uglier it is when it comes.

I voted Republican in '08 because I trusted McCain more than Obama.

I still don't trust Obama. But I don't trust the GOP now either.

C'est la vie.

Okay, so let me try to see things from the perspective of these right wingers.

Reasons why I voted Republican..

- I voted Republican because I'm afraid of the imaginary liberal Rush Limbaugh keeps telling me is hiding under my bed.

- I voted Republican because I know I can trust multi-million dollar unregulated corporate entities much more than I can trust other people.

- I voted Republican because I believe any psycho with a couple of hundred dollars should be able to buy enough street sweeper guns and ammo to take out a small nation.

- I voted Republican because we don't need our food inspected, our streets paved, clean water or fire departments.

- I voted Republican because people who are different from me scare the shit out of me.

- I voted Republican because of the elitist Libtard 'truth' I am told I'm smart, good-looking, a Real American Patriot and other bullshit I really want to hear

- I voted Republican because I only give a shit about deficits.. or the constitution.. or illegal wars when there is someone in the White House with a (D) after their name.

- I voted Republican because I believe the Government should police women's vaginas and not say mining companies or the pharmaceutical industry.

- I voted Republican because I can't stand it when the Government spends money on anyone other than me.

- I voted Republican because I'm actually stupid enough to believe that Democrats are giving free healthcare, education and social security benefits to illegal aliens.

- I voted Republican because election results count only when my side wins.

- I voted Republican because freedom of speech only counts when you agree with me, when you disagree with me you're trying to take away my rights.

- I voted Republican because I believe that blowjobs are impeachable offenses but torture, secret prisons and illegal wars are all perfectly acceptable.

- I voted Republican because it's easier than thinking for myself.

I admit that it would have been interesting to see how McCain would have succeeded Bush.

Is there a lot of disenfranchisement among the traditional GOP voters would you say?

I have a very good friend to whom I take any qualms I might have before I do something I think of as questionable. And this might be surprising to some, but she is a church-going member of the Republican Women of America.

yes I was surprised .... so pleasantly surprised too [:D] It says very nice things about you IMHO.

My closest confidante is rabidly pro-Israeli. We can laugh at each other and listen to each other about that issue too. It's a good thing to have diversity in all aspects of one's life IMHO.

Obama just never resonated with me, maybe because I'm an antisocial jerk who avoids large crowds chanting and stuff, but I always thought he was terribly fake and wasn't too impressed with the fact that he mostly ran on popularity and speeches.
