It seems that, comes 2009, we will once again be under control of a single party with either Hillary or Barack at the helm. What can we look forward to?

Under Hillary, socialism will run rampant and there will be no reins on entitlements. Our welfare state is a major contributor to the imminent bankruptcy of the country which Hillary has yet to consider or mention. The Clintons also are invitees to the Bilderberg convention which considers trhe United States as just another country to control and plunder. Notwithstanding all the nasty little subtable humor about her, in fact, her presidency poses a serious threat to the country.

And that sweet benign Barack who wants to bring change for the benefit of all Americans. We know little about him short of what he claims and puts out for publicity. His friend of long standing and spiritual advisor, on the other hand is a known racist who thinks Lewis Farrakhan exemplifies the best in America. Beware, for we shall be judged by the company we keep. In a world where the third Jihad has begun and America is a major target, a person with both Muslim father and step father and some training in a Muslim school, can be reasonably questioned for where his true sentiments lie. At the least, will he lead the country rationally when the attacker is a potential relative.

There are major issues facing the world and none of these canadidates are technically qualified to address those issues. Even with advisors, one still has to have adequate background to even understand the words, much less the concepts.
That is a generalization I make pertaining to all those JD’s in congress who believe themselves uniquely qualified to make decisions on any subject.

Just to clarify, I’m not arguing that Obama is the “peace candidate” or that he has the best approach to foreign policy. The original comment in the interview about a generational war, however, just jumped out to me. Obama still doesn’t strike me, and the quote (to me at least) doesn’t indicate that he share’s the neoconservative agenda of reshaping the middle-east or McCain’s proposition of a “one hundred year” war. That’s all I was trying to point to.

I really enjoy the site. Keep up all the good work.

RUSSERT: “Will you pledge that by January 2013, the end of your first term, more than five years from now, there will be no U.S. troops in Iraq?”

OBAMA: “I think it’s hard to project four years from now, and I think it would be irresponsible. We don’t know what contingency will be out there.

What I can promise is that if there are still troops in Iraq when I take office — which it appears there may be, unless we can get some of our Republican colleagues to change their mind and cut off funding without a timetable — if there’s no timetable — then I will drastically reduce our presence there to the mission of protecting our embassy, protecting our civilians, and making sure that we’re carrying out counterterrorism activities there. I believe that we should have all our troops out by 2013, but I don’t want to make promises, not knowing what the situation’s going to be three or four years out.”

Thanks for the links, by the way. DemocracyNow did a fine report on the advisors of some of the major candidates as well.
