The Reality of Congress.org
Yesterday, I wrote the following comment in their provided page for such things about which party's ticket I am supporting:
I will vote for the Obama/Biden ticket for President because the Republican junta of the Bush/Cheney administration just about ruined our bicameral, democratic process of government as written in The Constitution. Deceiving the American people and much of the Congress into believing there was a valid purpose for invading Iraq, ignoring the intent of Congress by the rule of Signing Statements, by eliminating Habeas Corpus and at least four other amendments in the Bill of Rights, by ignoring the advice of the leaders of every religion in the US and beyond regarding Iraq, by approving of torture, by establishing a gulag of secret prisons around the world for the CIA, and for destroying our economy by funding the war and occupation of Iraq with borrowed money--these un-American activities are the path that John McCain declares he will continue.
Plus, the GOP cannot give up using slander and innuendo to create false images of their opponents. For example, this text space used the term 'Obamiden' instead of 'Obama/Biden' for the Democratic Party's nominees. This intentional, disrespectful and very unpatriotic word game is not humorous, truthful or worthy of the GOP I have known for over 60 years. Stop this tactic now! You dishonor our Constitutional election process.
The Obama/Biden ticket offers hope to the country that America will not mirror the path of the Weimar Republic in the 1920s and 1930s. Barack Obama and Joe Biden do not have to use immature word games or fear-laden messages for their campaign. The only thing the electorate has to fear is to have four more years of the anti-American, anti-Constitutional and inept government of George W. Bush and Dick Cheney.
