[/div] Even worse than a taxpayer financed bridge to nowhere is the much ballyhooed upcoming election to nowhere.[/p] If Republicrooks should retain control of one or both houses of congress, our country continues downhill. Our trust and faith in our constitutional republic is surely flushed down the toilet, with George, Dick, Don and Condi jointly and joyously pushing the lever down.[/p] What if Democraps win? Where are we going? To somewhere that really matters? That depends on where you think our nation should go. What problems do you want solved and what policy and political reforms do you think are critically needed?[/p] Lately, the Dems talk about a "new direction." To where? To the Promised Land? Where exactly are they promising to take us? That logically should result from a sincere rejection of our current system. Can they reject their system? Or, is their new direction likely to be nothing more than a sleazy political U-turn?[/p] Are they going to take us to a democracy-land free of corruption by corporate and other special interests? On the other side will the Dems take us out of the insane pre-emptive Iraq war that is wasting American lives and treasure? Will that new destination include vigorously protecting our borders from illegal immigrants and terrorists? Once we cross over will we finally see a true overhaul of our tax system that works in favor of economic justice and equality, where the rich no longer get favored treatment? Once there will they impeach – or better yet, prosecute – G.W. Bush and his accomplices for mass criminally negligent homicide? Will they restore honesty and integrity to our constitutional republic?[/p][a href="vny!://www.americanchronicle.com/articles/viewArticle.asp?articleID=15757"]CLICK HERE to read rest of article[/a]
