Re: U.S. Elections: November 7th, 2006
CheGuvera you are way off base on your assessment of Democrats. Democrats know the war on terror won't be won with bombs and Democrats aren't the ones sucking away liberties but in fact have opposed Bush's tactics. The Bush admin's entire 'make it up as we go' in respect to EOW's is unacceptable. The Republicans 'our way or the highway' approach has shown to be a failure and once the Democrats are in control the Bush team will be held accountable, right now you have a Republican controlled congress that protects them and won't allow that to happen. As far as congress doing the bidding for big business I agree with you and one of the first things a Democratic controlled Congress will do is overhaul the relationship lobbies have with Congress. It's been 12 years, Congress is corrupt and has been left unchecked far to long. It's time to bring accountability and personal responsibility, and if you don't like what they do then vote Republican in 2008.
Only the marginalized extreme left leaning groups/individual have done anything note worthy in opposition to Bush and previously Clinton administration's genocidal misadventures abroad...
