Right now it is 'Anybody but Obama'. He is already got the set up to do further damage too easily. Immediately after Romney is elected, I will jump to the 'Anybody but Romney' camp, just to keep them on their toes. It will take the Romney Administration alot longer to get nominations and appointments through Congress especially after defeating Obama.
Sherrod Brown has to go this election. Then, Rob Portman goes. My Rep is Jim Jordan, I hope there will come someone sane to challenge him. The Dems always put up a CPUSA member for that seat. Ugh!

Why do you want a 3rd big-government party?


I never suggested big government. A third party would presumably rectify many of the imbalances of the recent past including the growth of debt, gvmt, police state etc.

At least in my fantasy world.

Moloch 2012
For the children...

Quote:
Moloch
Encyclopedia Mythica
by Micha F. Lindemans

"King". The sun god of the Canaanites (Ammonites?) in old Palestine and sometimes associated with the Sumerian Baal, although Moloch (or Molekh) was entirely malevolent. In the 8th-6th century BCE, firstborn children were sacrificed to him by the Israelites in the Valleye of Hinnom, south-east of Jerusalem (see also Gehenna). These sacrifices to the sun god were made to renew the strength of the sun fire. This ritual was probably borrowed from surrounding nations, and was also popular in ancient Carthage.

Moloch was represented as a huge bronze statue with the head of a bull. The statue was hollow, and inside there burned a fire which colored the Moloch a glowing red. Children were placed on the hands of the statue. Through an ingenious system the hands were raised to the mouth (as if Moloch were eating) and the children fell into the fire where they were consumed by the flames. The people gathered before the Moloch were dancing on the sounds of flutes and tambourines to drown out the screams of the victims.

According to some sources, the Moloch in the Old Testament is not a god, but a specific form of sacrifice.

I read the most recent EW Theorist by Robert Prechter. He said he hadn't voted for someone who won in I think 3 decades, meaning he likely has been voting Libertarian. I prefer to keep my name out of their records for having participated in the fiasco. I will start voting when Washington DC goes broke.

You're out of your mind, the media and corporate criminals haven't invested all these resources into the two-party monopoly for nothing. They need you to vote for the big 2, doesn't matter which, to keep the barriers of entry up and the plebs at each others' throats over deck chairs. When you vote to rearrange the deck chairs what you're really voting for is the iceberg. May as well just write in RObamney, only way to be sure you don't "waste your vote".. The great depression can't come soon enough for you "lesser of the two evils" types, if you're willing to settle for rocks and hard places all you're ever going to get is rocks and hard places. That's how it works.

Does that mean you're being forced to sleep with either hooker? What's that called again?

Voting for the lesser of two evils is forgivable for those who don't understand the game being played. Once you become aware though you're betraying your country if you help put a man in charge that you don't trust or believe in, simply because of who he isn't.

Exactly...anybody that calls themselves a 'patriot' and will vote for the lesser of two evils is a liar and a traitor.

Agree, it will be either of those too more than likely...however, that's only because we have people who are either too STUPID to vote for someone other than the lesser of two evils...or they're simply traitors to this nation.

Let me know when your movement reaches critical mass.

I agree philosophically but we all have to face reality.

Face reality? Me? smiley The reality is....if you vote for someone you KNOW is not good for this country - regardless of your reason - you are a traitor. I only hope the traitors will kill themselves from the guilt they'll face for helping destroy this nation...we'll be better off without them.

You tell me.

What is your proposed "solution" that is both attainable and timely.

For me it is choice between slowing the the buss down as it heads for the cliff and adding Nitro to air intake.

I think there is a least a slim chance of real positive change with one and absolutely no chance with the other.

I don't like it but I have faced reality and am doing what I can.

I repeat...IF you actually vote for somebody you KNOW DAMN WELL is bad for this country...then you will be a traitor to this nation. It doesn't matter how you want to justify it to yourself...those of us that truly care about this country will not forgive you for your part in our country's destruction.

The solution? Stay home and do not give the enemies of this nation your blessing in their quest to ruin it.

At the VERY least...vote for a candidate that is true to this nation...
