Someone forwarded a link to me. Your premise is sound. Don’t worry so much about taxes. Don’t worry so much about big government. Worry about changing the government such that what exists is empowering to its people. That’s fair. We need honest courageous leadership to drive change. What I can’t understand is why so many think Obama is that honest courageous leadership. His track record is, at best, one of a very left wing liberal who has lapses of judgment in selecting acquaintances. More probably, he’s a stereotypical Chicago politician who takes money from the very people who drove us into the mess we’re in, lies to his constituents, and avoids taking a position on anything. There is a slight chance the right-wing conspiracy theorists are right and he’s incredibly nefarious. Regardless, he has no track record of leading change with integrity. McCain & Pailin at least both have that track record, as odd as they both are. What’s happened to this country? Are we illiterate, forced to make our decisions solely based on appearances on a few debates and news shows? Sad. I hope whoever wins does drive education reform . . . .
