Its a frustrating issue for me. Most of my friends (when were not arguing) are conservatives. I think the really close ones are still close because we were in the military together and went through a lot, so there will always be a brotherhood respect thing between us. I use to follow the Republican way of thinking, but now I’m known by those I have this type of discussion with as a “conspiracy theorist” although I clearly don’t see the theory part of it, but I’ve had to come to acceptance that we’ll all find out one way or the other. Even though he is not running this time I really liked what the current governor of Iowa had to say. His ideas seem fresh and what direction I think would take America to a good place. He’s a democrat that I saw on Hannity and Colmes and for anyone that watches that show, for Sean to say he would vote for him may give some an idea of how impressive he is. The sad thing is I don’t think the oil barrens will ever allow him to get into office; if he did he wouldn’t be there long. Thomas Jefferson said that this country would need a good revolution every couple of hundred years to keep the ideas in Congress fresh. While that’s a little strong, I see both parties have become stagnant; at least they agree on giving themselves a raise.
