That's just your way of saying I'm right, right? ;-) What DOES turn you on, Kevin? Neocon talking points? This gordian knot of problem we all face isn't a liberal vs. conservative or republicker vs. demoncrat problem any more. It's a question of saving our society from becoming a bad imitation of post soviet russia. First clue will be that things slowly begin to suck for more and more people... Stay tuned. So. That’s just your way of saying I’m right, right? ;-)
What DOES turn you on, Kevin?

To wit: 1) Housing prices: Artificially high. Right now, "the government" is cooking up a way to regulate the subprime mess so it doesn't bring down the economy. The Booshites seem to think government intervention is the only answer. Guess that invisible hand got caught jacking off too many bankers lately. 2) Gas prices: This is called the bumpy plateau. Google it. Markets and prices will go through a period of spikes and drops as the market responds to declining oil outputs and the consequent rising prices of liquid fuels. The market there will be limited by availability of those liquid petroleum products. This is why the US big three automakers are in a business that has literally no future; the Chinese are following the American lemmings right over the cliff. 3) Keep the craptastic Ayn Randian teenage social philosophy to yourself. That mindset works great until you need to call an ambulance because you or a member of your family is bleeding to death; it is then you understand the value of socially conscious government. Or perhaps you should get cancer and have your insurance company drop your coverage. How would that feel, being stroked by that invisible hand? So, in closing, we ARE ALREADY suffering economically because the government has hollowed out the US economy and replaced it with a service and financial "industry" trojan horse that produces virtually nothing of real value. It was unthinkable that all the liquid cash could be siphoned out of an entire national economy and into the pockets of the very wealthy and simply replaced with worthless promissory notes and commercial paper, which was bundled and sold to foreigners who didn't have a clue what was happening.

He is a Republican and not a neo-con. He wants to remove all troops from across the world, remove your federal income tax and believes in the true concept of small government.
