Handwriting on the Wall

Greece has had their credit rating lowered to "junk" status. There is great unrest there. Three causes:

1. Out of control entitlement programs

2. Out of control debt

3. Out of control spending

Portugal, Spain, Austria and Italy are facing similar issues. So much for the model countries practicing Western European Socialism.

This is a warning to us all of where we are headed if we don't make massive changes in government from local to national elections!

You have to be out of your mind to vote for liberals this year! Vote conservative! If its GOP or Independent or if you can find the rare conservative Democrat, vote for them!

We have a chance to turn this thing around---but we may only get this one last chance before the bottom falls out!

Good news is the latest poll from the Washington Post is that voters are saying 57% want to vote out incumbents.

Re: Handwriting on the Wall

I've already determined to vote a straight R ticket this next election. I've only voted for a Democrat three times in my life.

As far as the Presidency, I'm hoping to see Newt Gingrich running a campaign for President.

I'd like to see a Gingrich/Huckabee ticket.

Re: Handwriting on the Wall

I live in Ohio.
In parts of our state we have more registered voters than we have people.
ACORN has been very active here and was probably why Ohio's electoral votes went for BHO in 2008.
I honestly wonder if we will ever have election results or vote counts that resemble the real voters' desires.

I doubt if they died.
Does any government agency ever cease to exist?
They were active under different names so I assume they're still receiving large amount of government (tax) money and still conducting their racist affairs.

Re: Handwriting on the Wall

On TV I heard that ACORN is finished. An investigator, with a hidden microphone, heard some things that even the present congress could not sit still for.
It will be a very good year for the more conservative party, but let us look out for an October surprise...a managed news event designed to thwart the people's will in the election.

I believe they are under a new name now, and they have been cleared of most of the charges.

Charges were dropped in those cases. The videos speak for themselves however.

They still face voter fraud charges in several states such as Harry Reid's Nevada.
