You've got to be kidding



The National Republican Congressional Committee called today.

They wanted a donation. Just $500. These are really funny folks.

I made it real simple for the poor woman on the other end of the line (what a lousy joib she has). You want a donation, then fix the oil mess and quit destroying the value of the dollar.

I gave her two ideas:
  1. Drill for oil inside the United States. (When they had majorities in both houses, they never had the guts to make this happen.)
  2. Support the dollar.

Drilling for oil and building refineries sounds like a no brainer, but consider the audience.

Supporting the dollar would impact the price of oil and put downward pressure on oil. However, this is an Administration policy that has absolutely no validity in the current climate.

I'll end up voting Republican again, because the other guys are basically crazy. So we enter another election cycle without a real choice.

No real choice?

American Conservative Union 2007 ratings
Obama: 7
McCain: 80

Negotiations with Iran
Obama: No conditions
McCain: Strict conditions

Judges
Obama: voted against Roberts and Alito
McCain: voted for Roberts and Alito and promises more constructionist judges

Abortion
Obama: makes Planned Parenthood, NARAL and Clinton look pro-life
McCain: 100% pro-life

2nd Amendment
Obama: In favor of assault weapons ban
McCain: says it's absurd to ban weapons because of cosmetic features

The list goes on and on. No real choice? If gun rights matter, there's a real choice. If the supreme court matters, there's a real choice. If abortion matters, there's a real choice.
