That's just it. I don't want ANYTHING from the government. I'm not dependent on the government like most people are, so there is nothing they have that I want. Ever!
Fire protection? Police? Streets and highways?

There are many schools of thought regarding voting, you will just have to decide which one you reside in and then follow through.
There are some, that believe it is the primary where one should vote pure conscience, but then in the General Election, be practical and vote for the best out of the viable candidates.
There are others, that believe every vote should be one of conscience. That no matter the candidate's viability, the voter should vote out of principle, and not out of practicality.
I fall in the latter of the two main schools of thought. I will never, ever believe that a vote bathed in prayer and seeking God's direction is cast in vain, thrown away, or a vote for someone else.
I suggest you pray, seek the Lord's direction, and vote the way He leads and never feel like you owe anyone an explanation for anything you've done out of a clear conscience before the Lord. I will be voting for Virgil Goode, the Constitution Party Candidate, and I feel good about that vote... I feel like I'm doing what God wants me to do.... and in the end, he's who we answer to right?
Yes, he addressed it, when asked, during the primary debates. He like Obama, promises not to abuse the power. They both take a strong, vocal stand, against abusing the power. The problem is it repeals the Posse Comitatus Act of 1878.

BTW, in this crowd at this particular debate, you have many Ron Paul supporters along with the Romney supporters. So, at the beginning when he said that he would sign it, the Paul people are booing as Ron Paul was also against the implementation of the Patriot Act. When he tried to take the stand that he would only use it against terrorists, the Romney people cheered.
Newt, Ron Paul, Virgil Goode and Gary Johnson are against it.

Yeah. Home robbery. Thief sets house on fire. No adequate roads for the FD and PD to reach him. Doesn't matter anyway. Government is bad, bad, bad!!! How dare that evil fire department try to put the fire out! Don't get me started on the PD!!!
I am voting for Mitt because I believe he is vastly better than the other guy.
I mean like the difference between the Empire State building and a hole in the ground.
Mitt is not going to give me every single thing I want. But in my view, it is far better to get a guy who will give me 75% to 80% of what I want. Vs 0% of what i want.
you folks can stand on principle all you want and feel super proud of what you are doing. good for you. I dont even know what it is you want from government.
As for me and my house, Mitt is the good guy and Obama is the bad guy.
