There are some true Americans, but the people that scare me are the right wing people, that do not care what happens, as long as they have power. I'm not so fearful of a tree hugger, but those others, with the guns... Its freaking unbelievable. They refuse to accept facts, you know, the things you learn as you seek truth, preferring instead to believe in myths and fables that they grew up with. Most of them call themselves Christians, but quote the Old Testament, (you know, with the wrathful and vengeful God) rather than the Gospels, (with the loving and forgiving God).
Anyway, the issue of the day is whether the Democrats or Republicans know the best way to fix the Economy. Fact is, the Deficit is important. What is the best way to fix it? Everyone agrees, its growth. The Republicans will tell you that lowering taxes is the best way to stimulate growth. FACT - after ten years of reduced taxes, its safe to say that hypothesis is wrong. Things have never been worse. The Democrats say that stimulating the economy is the best way, hopefully sparking long term growth with immediate investment. Sadly, the people in the best position to help are Republican billionaires, and they are more interested in defeating Obama than helping their fellow countrymen, unless those fellows are investing in their own Company, which probably shipped the jobs overseas, starting this whole crisis.
Fact, when the Republicans had control of all aspects of the Government, things were good, but slowing down. After eight years of a Republican President, the US was in economic crisis. After two years of Obama, the US has pulled out of the nose dive, and stabilized the economy in the face of Global economic crisis. Let him do his job. Elect a Democratic Congress.
