There is no denying our country is not long for this world. The 2012 Presidential election has been in campaign mode since 2008. If you are looking at the candidates as a conservative Christian, and I am, here's the future I'm seeing.
On the Republican side we have Mitt Romney. This is the person who as governor passed the health care plan that President Barry modeled his after. When you pull up Romney's site, the banner across the top proclaims, “we have a moral responsibility to not spend more than we take in.” Romney is using morality to define simple common sense issues. He claims to be a great businessman, so maybe he should simply say “as a businessman, it only makes sense to not spend less than we take in,” or something along those lines. To say that overspending is due to morality is offensive. But Romney is a Mormon, so he probably does not know what the Bible says, since the god he prays to wrote his own book. But my guess is, he will be the nominee because this is what the media wants, and like it or not, the media has picked our candidates for the last twenty years.
Then we have Ron Paul who is so nutty that squirrels are trying to capture him. He has said he will cut $1 Trillion from our budget if elected. How will he do that you ask? Very simply, it will come from the military. He will begin the dismantling of what keeps us semi-safe. He believes we don't need military bases on foreign soil, we pull those, the world comes looking for us. We also have no business defending ourselves so we need to arm ourselves if he's elected, it's all us, there will be no them.
Next is Rick Perry who I want to like. I want him to tell the others candidates in the debates to shut the heck up or he's gonna shoot them. I was not enthusiastic about the last Texas Governor we had, but he as strong on defense and told everyone unashamedly that Jesus Christ was the person he most admired. Bush also came across as a real person, Perry does none of that.
Then we have Newt Gingrich. I have heard from different avenues that Gingrich is a smart guy. One of those who have said that is Rush Limbaugh, however, Newt made Rush an honorary member of the 1994 House of Representatives, and they're friends. Rush is bias. I know he's taught some classes, and written some books. That does not make him smart, that makes him good with words. If being “smart” was so good this country would not be in the hand basket it's in. The current occupant of 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue is supposedly smart, and he's one of the dumbest creatures God ever gave life to. Newt believes in Global Warming and Cap and Trade, which make him no smarter than the guy in the House now.
Next is Rick Santorum. He's supposedly a believer and has the word “Faith” written allover his website and he does thank God in his speeches, but so do Rock Stars and Rappers. I am yet undecided on him. I want to hear more.
Finally, John Huntsman. He was an ambassador in Barry's administration. And he's a Republican? Yeah, right, and Oprah's a size 0.
On the Democratic side we have Barry Soetoro, Jr. Oh, sorry Barack Hussein Obama, Jr. I can tell you nothing about this man. His grades and the papers that he wrote while at Harvard Law School, Columbia University, and Occidental College have been expunged, his law degree was used only briefly and was then revoked, again I don't know why. The first political office he ran for he won by having everyone else disqualified, therefore he didn't have to stand for anything. He has multiple social security numbers, each with a different name, again, why? He's a community organizer but will not mention which community or what he's organized. He voted present instead of for or against anything and he's black, white, or Irish, depending on who his audience is.
So that's my choices. As the field is whittled down with the caucuses maybe a choice will become more clear.
Or maybe I will just write in the name 'John Adams.'
