Well, that's all well and good except for one small thing: I never said anything about empowering any Democrats! So I'm not sure your response is really to my post. It was very passionate and all, but it had nothing to do with my post. I clearly said, in fact, that the Democrats were bad. But when it comes to the area of spending they are not raging hypocrites. The GOP is. Sorry. It's not my fault. Pointing out the obvious is hardly an indictment of me.

Maybe you didn't mention it; but my comments did. Did you vote for any of the Democrats who now infest the Senate or House? Then you empower them.
Did you vote for Obama? Then you empower them.
Did you vote for a third party candidate? Then you empower them.
There is only ONE good way to ensure politicians do not bury us in a vast sea of debt and societal decline, and that is by either ensuring that we never empower ONE particular party or that we vote FOR those candidates who espouse conservative values. I don't worry that sometimes they might go back on their word; after all, they are mostly LAWYERS and are POLITICIANS.
But to deliberately VOTE for a candidate that promises to increase Government control, that they want to turn you into a ward of the State and increases taxes as their ONLY solution to every problem; that is just plain dumb. Defending them is asinine.
