That's one of the problems I have with Barr and I could never vote for him. He seems to flipflop on too many issues, he voted for Patriot Act before he was against it. He should have known better and never voted for it to begin with.

He was on NPR a couple weeks ago and someone asked him about that. I forgot his answer but it made sense and he did not flip-flop on it.

Well here goes- I voted for the President.
I'm not against the "3rd Party"/non-affiliated candidates, I just don't think it was all that bad to vote for Obama. I like him, I like what he stands for, and I think he can turn our country around. Oh yeah, and I don't want a hockey-mom that close to the nuclear codes. BTW, I thought McCain's concession speech was amazing- as much as I disagreed with him during the campaign is as much as I have respect for him after that speech- he stood up in front of a throng of nothing-but-white people and talked about the historical significance of electing an African-American into the Oval Office. Now THAT'S a maverick move!

Anyways even though I don't agree with him all that much, it is inspiring to see the massive amounts of people that he gives hope to. Obama's presidency will be more symbolic to the American people than the effect of his policies. Also McCain's concession speech was pretty decent I thought too. His Arizona ralliers were however completely rude. There is certainly no reason to boo and scream obscenities at your newly elected president whether you agree with him or not. |

Yep. Once government gets involved in anything, things get worse and they never go away.

Hey! I like Dr. Keyes. I would have been thrilled to have had him be the first black president.
Truth is, for better or for worse, the United States is in practice a two party nation, and the presidency is going to go to a Democrat or a Republican. Ralph Nader is probably the alternative party candidate with the most votes, and he received only a fraction of a percentage of the popular vote.

If someone actually tried that on a plane, I really hope they got what they deserved for crying wolf!
