No, there is no equal. You are right. Our government approved to go to Iraq and waste hundreds of billions of dollars and lose lives. Our government approved doing the same in Vietnam. Our government wastes our money and comes back for more, we send out stupid foreign aid that accomplishes little but make despots wealthy, it never reaches the people. Yeah, our goverment is perfect... Take a look at the authority that has been given our Presidents by congress to spend so much money, and to have so many die. Government is responsible for stealing money and many, many deaths, companies are responsible for enriching themselves excessively and employing the people of this country, as well as pay taxes. We have a great country being run by people that are bought and paid for, that promote stupid ideas at our expense instead of managing our money that they take effectively. That is wrong. They would be fired for their job performance if they were employed. Look at the candidates, should they be paid when they decide to leave their jobs and job search? They should be able to take a leave of absense, but it should not be paid. Why are they being paid to do a job they were elected for, when they do not even show up? Is that right and fair to the people paying their salary? Should we then not do the same in business? You say you are starting a company, So if you employee wants another job, are you going to pay that person to go after it?

KERRY PLANS TO END WAR ON TERROR We have told you over and over again that John Kerry thinks that terrorism is a law enforcement problem. Well, just wait until you hear what he would do with the war on terror if he is elected president. This man is absolutely frightening. Rather than continue the policy of destroying terrorists and the nations that harbor them, Kerry has said he would abandon the President's war on terror, begin a dialogue with terrorist regimes and apologize for the actions of the Bush administration. This is why this man must not be elected president, ever. In a speech to Council on Foreign Relations, Kerry called the war on terror "the most arrogant, inept, reckless, and ideological foreign policy in modern history." Apparently he would rather return us to the do-nothing appeasement of terrorists that was the policy under Bill Clinton. Remember, Osama Bin Laden was offered to the United States on a silver platter and the Clinton administration said no. What would John Kerry do to prevent another 9/11? For example, Iran is known to be harboring top Al-Qaeda operatives. According to an Iranian dissident, the hard-line clerics in Iran fear George Bush, but are rooting for John Kerry. If you are actually bright enough to understand that Islamic Jihadists have vowed to do everything they can to destroy all in the world that is not Muslim ... and that includes America ... and have promised to kill as many Americans as they can, wherever they can find them, then you are bright enough to understand what is at stake in November. Here is the election in a nutshell: Islamic terrorists have pledged to see you dead, and your country destroyed. Who do you want to put in charge of making sure this doesn't happen? (A) A man who wants to send the FBI and other law enforcement agencies out there to find these terrorists, and then turn them over to an international court to be tried; or, (B) A man who wants to send the U.S. military to search for these terrorists and to kill them before they kill us. It's as simple as that. boortz.com
