Spending $10 billion in Iraq every month is just retarded. We need to get the national debt down to something reasonable.

The last two years the dem's have controlled the purse strings, you know, CONGRESS? The president has control over a veto, thats it folks.

Does anyone in class know which party started the "everyone in America needs a home" drive, where it didn't matter if you couldn't get a car loan, you'd get a house...

Which party rep has received the most backing from said government program?

The problem is the republicans also went along with it, as it was the popular thing to do, so they aren't much better.

My important views are the economy, healthcare, and military. For me, there is only one clear choise, unless I am hoping for change like Pete mentioned.

And I make way under 250k/year . I know how taxes work, how trickle down works, and how much in taxes the upper class actually pays. Plus I know that businesses pass on taxes to consumers, and since most companies I buy from make over 250k/year, I dont want to see my cost of living go up yet again.

I think in the House, the Democrats have the majority 232 to 202. Thats 53%. The Senate is 49 to 49 with two independents. That isn't much of a "controlling" interest. I have a feeling that is REALLY going to change next week.

Curt

It should be a very interesting election indeed. I expect the election to go very long this year as far as voter turnout as well as a close race.
