I may yet vote for Bob Barr so that I can be absolved of all blame no matter whether McCain or Obama wins. It’s not like Obama needs my vote to win California anyway.Could you imagine being one of the Florida voters who voted for Bush in 2000? You might be legitimately responsible for the destruction of this country.

Besides agree with the Libertarian stance on policy, this is why it’s very important that I vote for Bob Barr. A 3rd party need I think either 5 or 15% of the vote in order to get public financing and a spot in the debate. Since California is locked for Obama anyways, might as well make your vote really count and shake up Washington w/ at least a 3rd guy in there for the next election.October 19, 2008 at 10:21 PM #290294anParticipant[quote=TheBreeze]

You speak of Bush’s destruction of civil liberties, yet ignore Clinton’s policies regarding extraordinary rendition and involvement with the NSA Carnivore and Echelon programs, as well as overlooking Carter’s 1978 FISA program.
“Legitimately responsible for the destruction of the country”? Wages have been stagnant since the 1970s and both right and left have lied to their constituencies for years (actually decades) about the true state of this nation and have avoided a true dialogue with the people of this country as to what truly needs to be done in order to return us to competitiveness and the necessary sacrifices that need to be made to wean us off of foreign oil, cheap goods and an unsustainable standard of living.
This is not something that has taken place over the last eight years, but the last forty. It has certainly accelerated over the last eight, but both Dems and Repubs have blood on their hands and both are equally guilty here.
Scapegoating Bush and extolling Obama simply continues the propaganda campaign.
