Default Re: How Do You Decide Which Candidate...

Well, there is this small issue of the US budget deficit. If it increases even more with another set of tax cuts, the US dollar becomes increasingly worthless. If you thought gas prices were bad now, just wait until the dollar collapses...

Regarding national security, we only need to compare the reactionf of McCain and Obama to Russia's invasion of Georgia to see who is better suited. McCain forcefully spoke out against the invasion; Obama waffled and tried to make them both at fault.
Russian invasion?? After Georgia invaded South Ossetia and killed about 1500 civilians?? Of course, that is the decent thing to do.
Me thinks it is just as bad as the Kosovo war.

The US and EU said: if a minority wants independence in the area where they form the majority that is fine. Russia objected. Now in Georgia, another minority wants independence. And now the US is objecting, but they have set the precedent. Can't have your cake and eat it too, McCain.
