I'm done voting for major parties. I voted Democrat in 2004 and 2006 and boy do I feel like a fool.
I couldn't vote in 2006 but I feel like a fool just for giving the Democrats the benefit of the doubt.
What do you guys think the Democrats should have done? Cut off funding for the Iraq war?
Oh, heavens no. To me, that would be telling the troops "I don't give a crap about you, I just hate this president and everything he stands for."
The Democrats are too patriotic and too loyal to our troops (for the most part) to do that.
Well, during '06 the Democrats heavily touted their anti-war beliefs, didn't they? Then, when they won Congress, they shut up very quickly. Come to find out, the Democrats in office are making lots of money off the Iraq War, just like Cheney and his friends. I wonder if that is where a lot of this anger is coming from. For me that's where it's coming from.
