My Mistake,....
« on: August 15, 2009, 09:05:14 PM »

 
My Mistake
 This is difficult for me to admit but, admit it I have to: my liberal friends were right.

They told me if I voted for McCain, the nation's Hope would deteriorate, and sure enough there has been a 20 point drop in the Consumer Confidence 20 Index since the election, reaching a lower point than any time during the Bush administration.

They told me if I voted for McCain, the US would become more deeply embroiled in the Middle East, and sure enough,20tens of thousands of additional troops are scheduled to be deployed into Afghanistan .

They told me if I voted for McCain, that the economy would get worse, and sure enough unemployment is approaching 10% and the new stimulus packages sent the stock market lower than at any time since 9-11.

They told me if I voted for McCain, we would see more "crooks" in high ranking positions in Federal government and sure enough, several recent cabinet nominees and Senate appointments revealed resumes of scandal, bribery and tax fraud.

They told me if I voted for McCain, we would see more "Pork at the trough" in Federal government and sure enough, 17,500 "Pork Bills" showed up in Congress in just three weeks.

They told me if I voted for McCain, we would see more deficit spending in D.C. and sure enough, Obama spent more in just 30 days than all other Presidents together in the history of the good 'ole USA. A 3.8 trillion dollar budget, with a 900 million dollar per day interest on this current debt.

Well I ignored my Democrat friends in November and voted for McCain.

… And they were right. All of their predictions have come true.

That is why our masters in Washington are so anxious to disarm us. They are not afraid of criminals. They are afraid of a populace which cannot be subdued by tyrants."

There is a few FQ jokes in there somewhere, but I'll let this one slide. ;)

A really interesting lesson, considering, all of the above came true under the other candidate, not Mc Cain. I voted for, but did not get warm fuzzies over my choice.

I voted McCain and I wish with all of my heart that he was my President right now.

The same people who control the dems control the repubs, two parties, one purpose.
In other words we could have had a different name in the White House, we would have had the same crap.

My Father sent it to me, it did not have a cite or a source, hell he might have wrote it. I talk to him on Sundays, and I'll ask him.
