But….Current gas prices are nowhere near the all time high a few years ago, when 91 octane ran close to $5/gallon. .We’re currently at $3.20/gal (lower if you go to costco). And same could be said about food prices. We’re not seeing significant inflation (yet….Keyword is YET)….We will, eventually..But when?[/quote]

Prices you see at the store trail the futures market by about 6-9 months, due to hedging and the length of contracts. So hold that thought until Feb/March.

[quote=Allan from Fallbrook]The facts are these: Obama has NOT closed Gitmo. He has NOT unwound Patriot I/II. He IS continuing the practice of extraordinary rendition, as well as overseeing the expansion of drone strikes, intelligence gathering operations in the AfPak region (over the protests of the Pakistani government), and he has considerably increased the troop footprint in Afghanistan.[/quote]

But the question, in terms of voting, is: Do you think Republicans will decrease military faster than a Democrat, or rescind more executive powers? The past few decades show otherwise.

I wish there was actually a serious small-government party out there (the Libertarians don’t cut it). But the Republicans are not it. Their actions are pro-Empire, make no mistake about it. They seek to expand government too, just in different areas, and have run the biggest deficits to get there. The last fiscally responsible Republican president was Nixon:

Ok, that was hilarious. Well done.

There are some interesting points in there, but all I keep seeing is “payed”.

The word is “paid”.
