Yes, I am part of the problem and the system. I spent three years of my life serving in America's Vietnam adventure. Also, I receive Civil Service retirement. If I were your kind of guy, I'd renounce my government benefits and live on the street.

I think Paul was our last chance, and he would not have lived long enough to take the oath of office, imo.
Yep, for all the same reasons no one man can "bring the troops home." There are trillions of dollars on the table and lots of oil under the newly conquered land. The US military to leave Iraq? Only the most naive among us believe that will happen. BTW, can anyone tell me the last time we abandoned a nation we warred with?
Sad, isn't it? I think Paul was our last chance, and he would not have lived long enough to take the oath of office, imo.
Too bad that only a few people attach the same credibility to the (s)elections that they do to Wrestlemania.
The Zionist puppet masters stage the American presidential elections every four years to make Americans believe they live in a democracy when, in reality, America is nothing more than a colony of Israel.

Z, you've got Cyni wrong. i believe you misunderstood his post. he's as anti- war as anyone here, especially after experiencing the heartbreak of losing his older brother, who was drafted, in WW2.
This morning on the Electric Jew, I saw a McSwein ad. "I will not surrender in Iraq," he said with his silly, tight-lipped smile. The man is a dangerous, unbalanced warmonger who belongs in the madhouse, not the White House.
The guy is only being truthful about what he will have to do if he wins. Obama isn't being truthful. That's the only difference between them right now. Obama will say what you want to hear, not what he is going to do. McCain will, like an idiot, say what he is going to do, not what you want to hear. McCain can win only against Obama, against Hillary he has no chance. I don't know who I am voting for yet, probably Baldwin, but quite possibly McCain if it is a close race between him and the liberal candidate. I don't want the government getting involved anymore than it already has in health care.

lord, ricky, please. it's all staged and a vote for either one of the selections only gives an endorsement to the fraud. a no vote or a protest/write in vote is the message that millions of us need to send.

I know all that, but just in case my vote actually counts and McCain doesn't start national health care like Hillary and Obama would do then I would vote for him in a close race, which I don't think it will be. McCain is going to win this in a landslide if Obama is the nominee I think.

I haven't figured out yet where Obama and Hillary think they are going to get the $ to carry on 2 wars, rescue Darfurians, attack Iran for Israel, sign onto Kyoto Support Third World Dictators with carbon transfer credits, and implement socialized health care stateside. I mean there's a limit to the amount of tax $ you can squeeze out of the middle class to pay for all of these projects.
To: Zoroaster Z, you've got Cyni wrong. i believe you misunderstood his post. he's as anti- war as anyone here, especially after experiencing the heartbreak of losing his older brother, who was drafted, in WW2.
The Bible says "Judge least ye not be judged." I was merely doing to Cyni what he did to me. He seems to be an extremely opinionated person who delights in picking fights. As a sixty-nine-year-old diabetic with arthritis I'm getting a little old for cyberspace fights, so I Bozoed Cyni.

Good post, Ricky J., the only part I disagree with is McSwein beating Black Obama in the race for the White House. Sane folks will vote for life over death almost every time

The 4 decorum is broken by ad hominems and bozoing. How many times do we have to repeat that criticism of one candidate does not consist of advocating another?

I have been called many bad names but never "punk" and surely not at my age.
Beyond that.
The "system" is not flawed, it is terribly broken. People operating with the system at its direction are indeed part of the problem. Twenty million Americans voted Perot, that was a indicator to the system that they must make certain it never happens again.

I doubt Perot was really that much of an outsider. Bill Clinton would have never beat Bush without Perot in the race. That more than likely was the main reason Perot was in it, to make sure Clinton won.
After Perot, the Presidential Debate Committee, one D and one R, established a 15% rule regarding national debates; no 3rd party candidate would be allowed to participate unless they were consistently tracking at 15%. Outside of Perot, who spent millions of his own $, I can't think of any 3rd party candidate that ever went above 4-5% nationally.
Without visibility on the national stage, a month or so outside of the selection, it's game, set, match for the Establishment.

Did you see Loudobbsy tonite? He's in the process of completing his conversion from Hillarism to McCainism. I expect to see most Hillarists/Ophobes at this site to pivot to McCain soon. (I like to use 'pivot'.)
Loudobbs explained his conversion to McCainism by citing McCain's willingness to 'win' in Iraq. He expressed horror at Obama's promise to withdraw our troops from that country because that would mean that we would not be winning there.
I posted an anti-Obama thread yesterday but no one bothered to comment on it. It was linking Obama to various Marxist-Terrorist people and movements but not to Hitler.
