Man, this is one messed up way to view the country. As a CEO answers to shareholders, an elected official answers, or should answer to the people. Money in elections should be looked at, but separate from what a President is, or should be. I can actually agree that an election should be limited, and funded solely from a general fund that everyone contributes to through their taxes. But remember Obama cast that aside in favor of Palestinian collection centers that fraudulently sent money to Obama '08.

Should be? We agree. But we're talking about mindset and best training for the job. If the US was a business, then CEO training would be appropriate. We're not, and how the person holding the job has been trained, is how he will act.

BTW, I'm not the one viewing it as a business, that's YOUR view of the COUNTRY. My view was of the man you supported, and I was explaining why your view of the country was inaccurate.


Well, it's hard for liberals to see the average person as someone they represent when they look down their noses at them, like you do here.

It is liberals calling people moochers, and saying workers, teachers, firefighters and police offers are takers. Conservatives are losing that image battle in a lot of quarters. Conservatives may want to lower their own nose first.


You have said that before yes, but you don't believe that at all. Considering what you have revealed in this post alone, I am surprised you could even type this with a straight face.

J say it because I believe j. As always, your misreading is not a reflection on me.

Recognizing that the working class has been losing economic power over the last few decades and decrying the power imbalance due to the decline of unions IS NOT the same as looking down ones nose on workers. It is quite the opposite as it attempts to place on the table the true picture of the working class and contrast that with the often hollow platitudes and empty pontifications of conservatives and the right who only truly intend to use workers for their own fodder.

I find it amusing that over and over again what comes out from many on the right is that workers are smart, workers are resourceful,workers can take care of themselves..... and at the end of all those platitudes comes the conclusion that workers do not need unions getting them better wages and benefits and working conditions. And the whole time the crowd mouthing those self serving comments are looking to their quarterly profit statements with the belief that the union is the enemy of their own fat pocketbook.

Maybe workers need fewer illegal aliens.
