"Where My Loyalties Lie"....
Category: News and Politics

Because of my support for for the Obama-Biden Ticket,I recently had a very good friend of mine ask me where my loyalties lie. I will be glad to tell him and anyone else concerned exactly where my loyalties lie.

First,my loyalties lie with the Constitution of the United States and Our Bill of Rights.

Two documents that have been systematically gutted by the policies of Fascism of the Bush/Cheney Regime. Gone is the Right of Habeas Corpus,the Right to a Speedy Trial & to Legal Council. American Citizens can now be detained indefinitely,without legal council¬ be told why they are being held. Our phone calls,mail,&e-mail can be tapped & searched without warrants. The Bush/Cheney Regime is trying to force the states to adopt a National ID Card System. Does the phrase,"Your Papers Please",ring a bell???? Under a McCain-Palin Regime,could the next step will be computer tracking chips implanted in all Americans. They can already track your money from satellites. George Orwell got it right....He just missed on the year.

Secondly, my loyalties lie with the brave men & women in Our Armed Forces.

Loyal soldiers who were sent to war based on lies and falsified intelligence. Soldiers sent to invade and occupy another sovereign nation for only one real reason : Greed. A nation with No Ties to the 9/11 attacks. Meanwhile, Osama Bin Laden still runs free. The Taliban is back and stronger than ever in Afganistan.

Five years later and over 4000 of our soldiers dead and Tens of Thousands more wounded and maimed for life;we are still in Iraq and if John McCain has his way;we will be there for the next 100 years.

Thirdly,my loyalties lie with middle class Americans who make less than $250,000 a year. The shrinking middle class who is in dire economic straits broght on by the policies of the Bush/Cheney Regime. Gone are the days of peace,prosperity,& a balanced Federal Budget left over from the Clinton Administration.

Fourthly, My loyalties lie with the children of today who will inherit the massive amounts of debt brought on by the failed policies of the Bush/Cheney Regime. The cost of the Iraq War Quagmire,the "Bailout" of financial institutions whose greed caused by the deregulation of the banking industry by the Bush/Cheney Regime have raised our National Debt to a over a "Trillion" Dollars(That's 12 zeros)!!!!

Today's children will be saddled by that debt & so will their children.

In short, a vote for McCain & Palin will be a vote for the same failed policies of the last 8 years of Bush & Cheney. Since Chuck Baldwin(The Constitution Party candidate) & Bob Barr(The Liberterian) have no chance of winning;I will proudly be voting for Obama & Biden. Our Nation cannot survive 4 more years of "Staying the Course" of failure. I say we vote for real change. If Obama & Biden don't deliver on what they promise,then in 4 years we'll vote them out too. America simply can't afford 4 more years of "Recycled Bush/Cheney".

Peace Now,

Danny G.
