The reason for all the passionate comments on here is due simply to love of this great country. A love that runs deep, and when we see things happening to our country that we know in our hearts and soul to be detramental to ALL of us, we get frustrated and upset. I'll appologize if I pissed anybody off, or offended anybody, but as someone said earlier, we do have freedom of speech, so I don't HAVE to appologize. With that being said, both sides throw mud, one side just does it in a more passive-aggressive way than the other. I know all my friends that are serving in the forces right now are all worried about pay cuts, and drawbacks, my family members are looking for other vehicles for their retirement monies, and my parents and aunts and uncles that own companies have already been forced to lay-off workers and cut back hours. I'll end with this... Thank you to Jimmy Carter, Bill Clinton, Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid, and the rest of the Democrat elite that shun us regular folks while preaching that we need to do more for the less fortunate, when republicans give more money to REAL charities than any of them give to their government sponsored charities. I will be okay because I am such a hard worker, and I am smart with my investments. I will not require a "bailout", "handout", or anything else "my" government wants to "GIVE" me. No thanks, keep it. I'll always support my troops and those that protect and defend us, abroad and domestically. I will never support a president that supports socialist and Marxist ideals. I can do this just the same way as some have not stood behind Bush, so I don't want to hear that I'm unpatriotic. The Bush-bashers said they were'nt un-patriotic, so neither am I. I am done with this thread as I think everyone else should be too. Reply if you like, I will read it, but won't reply. Fin..
