On John McCain's Character

I would admit that McCain has more kudos on his side for heroism and self-sacrifice, but unfortunately, that is NOT what this election is about.

What this election is ABOUT is finding solutions to critical problems, particularly ECONOMIC problems, that are threatening to destroy this country.

It is NOT the Islamofascists who are most seriously threatening to destroy America. It is the emerging competitive nations, particularly the Asian ones, which are threatening American hegemony.
Asia has almost totally taken the lead in technology and electronics. Asia is rapidly taking over as the center of the world. The western world is turning into a bunch of dumb hillbillies who don't even know how to build an electric car. Freeking Toyota did all the work on the Hybrid engine. Remember long, long ago when WE used to lead the world in technology?
How on earth we are going to remain technically superior to our enemies is a complete mystery. Soon, China and India are going to be FAR advanced over America in terms of smart weapons technology. The American corporations have traitorously moved their operations to every cheap-labor country that they can find, without the slightest concern that they are destroying America's national security.

Unfortunately, McCain has not shown any propensity for new ideas, and has also admitted his weakness in Economics. And this is time when Economics is CRITICAL for America's very survival. Dumb and Dumber in the White House are DESTROYING America with their 2% Fed interest rates. They have spent the last 8 years giving away free money to the big corporations who have given America almost NOTHING in return, except to export our jobs to whatever cheap-labor hell-hole is most willing to do their dirty work.

McCain is probably a better man than Obama in terms of character, but so what? If McCain can't solve the critical problems that America faces, which require NEW ideas utilizing NEW technology, then he will become just another Herbert Hoover, trying to fix the Great Depression with tax cuts, shoe laces and bubble gum.

Lets face it: Republican ideology has FAILED, and it has failed dramatically. The economy is a MESS. The people who least need it have gotten the most help from tax cuts. And rather than their money trickling down, the rich's money has tricked OVER to Asia. Iraq, of course, is a disaster as well. Another cross for McCain to bear.

Lets face it. I am not in love with Obama. I would have greatly preferred Hillary. But when you look at the TOTAL FAILURE of Republicanomics in the past 8 years, and the massive WASTE of this endless, poorly-managed war, the fact is that MICKEY MOUSE could elected President if he ran as a Democrat! The Republicans offer us NOTHING.

Please. Is there somebody, ANYBODY, in the Republican Party who has a new and original idea about ANYTHING? I doubt it. Beam me up, Scotty.
