I really don't voice my political views often but today I am going to have to rant for a second. First of all it is very sad to me that out of all the people in the United States we end up these two yahoos as our candidates. And let me also state that I am not one bit impressed when one candidate finds it necessary to bash the other just to make themselves look better. If you can't stand on your own merit without bashing the other there is a problem. Now I am not saying that stating negative facts about each other is completely wrong because by doing this it causes us to investigate into them further I am talking about the true personal bashing. So, to make a long story short (I know a little to late) I found the following in a article and thought it was a rather good come back.
McCain himself said, "If that's the kind of campaign Sen. Obama and his surrogates and supporters want to engage in, I understand that. But it doesn't reduce the price of gas by one penny. It doesn't achieve our energy independence or make it come any closer. Doesn't make any American stay in their home who's at risk of losing it today. And it certainly doesn't do anything to address the challenges Americans have in keeping their jobs, homes and supporting their families."
Not many comments have been made by either that I would bother posting but this one at least is on the track I would like the candidates to stick too.

Don Henley once opined: "We get the government we deserve."
As long as we remain clueless as a nation and care more about the exploits of Paris Hilton and Britney Spears than we do about the sanity and freedom of our population, we will forever be stuck in a never ending decline of values and freedoms.
I worry about what this country will be like for my grandchildren.
