Can you explain to me precisely how Obama is destroying the country? Details are better than vague statements. If you can elucidate perhaps three or four concrete things Obama has done that are 'destroying our country' that might be convincing. Right now, I can't say that I can go along with your idea that voting Obama out of office is good for the country on nothing more than your saying that it is. Given that the Republicans took a budget surplus and turned it into a deficit, cut taxes in a time of war, and deregulated the economy to such a degree that large corporations have been operating with no effective oversight in either the banking or energy production industries for most of the last decade, I'm rather disinclined to believe that the Republicans would do any better if we elected, say, Sarah Palin as President.


While you're at it, can you explain what a liberal Republican stands for these days? I know what Rockefeller Republicans stood for 30 or 40 years ago but what do they stand for now?

Cheers

The People tended to be small-minded and conservative and not very clever and were even distrustful of cleverness. And so, the children of the revolution were faced with the age-old problem: it wasn’t that you had the wrong kind of government, which was obvious, but that you had the wrong kind of people. As soon as you saw people as things to be measured, they didn’t measure up." (Terry Pratchett)
