The biggest problem we face, in my opinion, is the old cliche' "the squeaky wheel gets the grease."<BR/><BR/>The liberals have been sqeaking up a storm for decades. Maybe we should just grease them up real good. Maybe we can then have a little quiet so that the conservatives can think up a few actual solutions.<BR/><BR/>The people we really need in Congress and as President are fiscally responsible, successful, business executives. They don't generally run for office because of the required media-posturing and the distraction of the squeaky wheels. Who wants to deal with that?!?<BR/><BR/>After a few years of the full thing, though; maybe we can get a few people with good old-fashioned common sense.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7821345570811107481.post-15718500301384433212008-06-21T12:00:00.000-07:002008-06-21T12:00:00.000-07:00"Obama is a truly gifted orator..."if he has a pre..."Obama is a truly gifted orator..."<BR/>if he has a prepared speech, teleprompter and possibly is wearing a wire.

Anyone that impartially considers our presidential candidates, our media, our federal government and their interests, and the rise of other countries might see all too well that situations will not improve anytime soon.<BR/><BR/>In my opinion, there isn't a best choice.

I get what you're saying, of course, but I was wondering about what disorder you intended to mention.<BR/><BR/>Your observation that many of the country's best and brightest are working for the political left is astute. I hadn't thought of that, not sure how much truth there is to it, but it's certainly logical.<BR/><BR/>Finally, what passes for conservatism these days must surely trouble any honest libertarian. We've seen a massive expansion of entitlements, reckless foreign policy, and a lack of any concern for good government.JLKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15005958576549654926noreply@blogger.com
