JJL Posted January 26, 2008 Report Share Posted January 26, 2008 We can talk about the candidates and their beliefs and stances, whether they be political or moral, but as a voter and citizen of this country what do you see as the most important 3 issues that face our country. Here's mine............ 1. Law enforcement. Not talking about Johnny Law catching speeders, but the ability of the United States government to enforce laws that are already in place. Immigration-Drugs-Guns-and Banking all come to mind. If you think pot should be legalized, work hard to change the law, don't break the law because you think you're above it and then complain about how screwed up this country is, you're part of the problem. National Security is a non-issue if we enforce the laws that are already in place. 2. Honesty. The decade of the 90's ushered in the Clinton's and their Liberal beliefs that if we lie it'll go away. We have to hold our elected officials to the same standards that we have for our children. You can remember the truth, but, lies take on a life of their own and tend to fester. This applies to the Main-Stream Media as well, they will report ANYTHING in order to get viewers. 3. No more Free-Rides. If you're getting a check from Uncle Sam. You need to do something to earn it. I don't care if it's volunteer work or picking-up garbage along side the road. This crap about giving away money to those people who are to intoxicated with laziness to get a job or those who cannot figure out where babies come from, HAS TO STOP. If you're breaking the law, lying about it, and then getting a check from Uncle Sam. I have a PROBLEM with you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LifeNRA Posted January 26, 2008 Report Share Posted January 26, 2008 I have the same feelings as you! Too many people in this country are taking that free ride for granted! Get out there and earn your living! Now granted there are some that truly need this, but most are just lazy. These are the people that are using our tax dollars that boils my blood!

stevebeilgard Posted January 26, 2008 Report Share Posted January 26, 2008 wow, i couldn't agree more. i think we are presently witnessing the fall of the Clinton's and their attack ways. politics at it's worst, and it appears that folks are fed up enough to turn on even the masters of deceit. the old ways don't seem to be working or the Clinton's, which means maybe America is waking up. i sure hope the honesty thing catches on. we could use a little... even if very little.

JJL Posted January 27, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2008 wow, i couldn't agree more. i think we are presently witnessing the fall of the clintons and their attack ways. politics at it's worst, and it appears that folks are fed up enough to turn on even the masters of deceipt. the old ways don't seem to be working or the clintons, which means maybe america is waking up. i sure hope the honesty thing catches on. we could use a little... even if damn little. America will have to wake up eventually, or we will fall so far behind we'll never catch up. There's still all kinds of people who don't and never will "get it". I just hope that they stay home on election day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wtnhunt Posted January 27, 2008 Report Share Posted January 27, 2008 Think it is pretty safe to say most here will agree with what you have said Jim. Sadly I agree too that a good number of citizens in this country really need to wake up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
