I want to keep my lunch money...do you?

So here we are, close to the primary in Pennsylavania and in Indiana. And here they are, the best that the Democrats can offer.....Barak Obama and Hillary Clinton. If this is the best that they can offer, maybe they should call France and ask for some relievers or some pinch hitters or something. The way that these two talk sounds like they were beat up by every bully in the school and didn't do anything about it but run away and hide. Let's take a look at what they want to do. Hold on a minute while I get my stack of soap boxes so that all can see me when I go on this rant. Please don't hold back your opinions either. Let me know what you think about all this when you are done.

1. Retreat and surrender. Need I say more. They have already said that we lost the war. They disrespect our military to no end which, by the way, burns my butt more than anything. They talk about how our soldiers go and die for nothing and that this whole thing was a mistake. These are the people that we (not me in particular) put into office? Are these really the people we want to run our country? Do we want a commander in chief that runs away when we are attacked? Do we want someone that just wants to keep talking to the bully, hoping that maybe someday he will stop taking our lunch money? Or do we want someone who is going to say that this is enough and we are not going to stand for this? I want to keep my lunch money because it comes in handy when I am hungry if you know what I mean.

2. TAXES.....do you want to pay "more" taxes? I don't know about anybody out there, but I can't even begin to fathom paying more to the government than I already do now. People are complaining about their mortgage, gas prices, food prices, health care costs, prescription medication,....etc., and here come the Dems saying that they are going to raise taxes to the tune of billions of dollars. How does that solve anything? I want to keep more of my money and decide where I want to put it. I don't want the government to take it and put in their pockets. Do you? Do you really think that they are really that much smarter than we are as to where our money goes?

3. Energy independence is a word that they like to throw around but have no idea what it means. I think that they are confused on the word independence and really want to say "energy dependence". Why else would they keep blocking drilling here in the U.S. for oil? I think they like to buy our oil from someplace else. I think they want us to be dependent on other countries. I think it goes back to the bully analogy where they don't want to stand up for themselves, they want to keep giving their lunch money away because they are scared. "Do you smell what I am cooking here?" They are no longer giving away their lunch money, they have found a way to give OURS away instead. Let's stop the insanity people.

The only way out of this economic and political crisis is to stand up and be heard. Get out and vote. Start drilling here at home...(trust me the Earth and all it's little creatures that God created will survive). Let's kick some Democratic butt this year and make our voices heard! If we don't do it now....it may be too late.....THAT'S THE WAY I SEE IT!
