Aunty,

McCain may be too liberal for many conservatives (and I believe that's a good thing, since those conservatives are the RWWJs), but he's too Bushy for me. Now if he would straight up say that invading the sovereign nation of Iraq was an idiotic idea propogated by idiots, but now that we're there, we have to stay until we can somehow stabilize the region, my respect for him would rise to the point of seriously considering voting for him.

Hankster,

You left out the $4 trillion that Reagan added to the national debt. As weird as it seems, over the last 28 years, Democrats are the new fiscal conservatives. It has me scratching my head, too. Apparently it costs this nation more to support corporate welfare than it does to support social welfare, based on this rather simplistic fiscal analysis.
