Election will be hard

So now who do we vote for. I really do like many things about Huckabee except for his bias against Mormons. And if he is so biased against Mormons, what about Lutherans, Jews, Catholics, Muslims, 7th Day Adventist, Jehovah's Witnesses? Does he just see his own kind as acceptable? The rest of us are what, chopped liver? He was so underhanded in his contempt for Romney and his beliefs that he scares me. So does McCain. I have been comparing the four main candidates. All are against tax increases, but Clinton and Obama have policies that would require serious tax increases. I guess the important thing is to get a very conservative Congress in to block anything that will give government more control over us, our money, our children, and our lives.

Congress is my last hope. It seems that whoever is elected is so unimportant because its still voting that happens afterward that allows whatever goes on, to go on. Am I wrong? People thought that Pres. Bush was just a puppet- or extremely good at acting like a puppet for all these years anyway..is that what Presidents really are? Just puppets to do what the Congress wants them to do? I feel like so much is done that we, people on a whole, don't see and they seem to like it that way. Just keep the people thinking that everything really is in their control but truthfully, money and power overpower anything that their vote could ever do. I know, I have serious doom and gloom opinions about our government lately. Humph.

I've been thinking about this a lot lately, especially with Romney dropping out and Ron Paul not getting nearly enough votes to matter (sorry becca). A freind of mine and I decided that if McCain was to run with Romney as his running mate that would be the best cause we both don't like somethings about the one that the other makes up for. If it does come down to being between hillary and obama... well, I think I'll just move to Canada or England... Someplace where the economy will still be fairly strong if America's fails... plus I wouldn't have to learn a new language (am I lazy or what?) I'm not really against tax increases as long as they raise wages to compete with inflation, this my main reason to not be against them- you need money to pay off the serious debt we're in as a country. If we can't stall the inflation then we will eventually call bankruptcy and then just imagine what would happen in the rest of the world, where we are supporting governments with our imaginary money, helping struggling third world countries with relief aid. etc. Actually, if a president would say that they make sure that no one makes over, say 100,000 a year and uses the excess money we would be paying them to help out those who are poor and who are trying to get out of their poverty (thanks Thucydides) then maybe we'd get out of this heck hole we've put ourselves in by only voting for guys because they've got nice smiles, because they're black, woman, white, whatever. I was almost insulted to see how well Romney did out here in Utah, because I KNOW how many voted for him just because he's Mormon. I know this cause people say all the time how they voted for him, but ask them what he stands for and they haven't a clue. Anyways, I'll step off the soap box and tell ya that I think I'm moving out of country pretty soon....
