What I Believe

In my previous post I went off on a rant about why I hate Dimocrats. Took me about ten minutes to write. Now I'm gonna talk about what I believe. Do I support all of Bush's policies? Hell no! I voted for him for one reason and one reason only. I thought he would be better at fighting the War On Terror than Flipper.

Here are some of my beliefs:

I believe in the Bill of Rights.

That means McCain-Feingold has to go. A pox on John McCain for helping to write it. A pox on Bush for signing it. The only campaign finance law I want to see is full disclosure. I want to know who's buying our politicans and how much they are paying. For example, how much did China give to Bill Clinton for our rocket guidance technology. Fuck you Dimocrats for giving us this traitor.

No assault weapons ban. As I said in my previous post I don't want an AK-47 to kill Bambi, I want it to protect myself.

People are saying we need to pass laws to protect private property in light of the Supreme Court's decision on eminent domain. Bullshit! We already have a law. It is the Fifth Amendment. The same court that ruled McCain-Feingold constitutional is the same court that ruled against the Fifth Amendment. We need justices who will uphold the Constitution. We need more justices like Scalia and Thomas. And fuck you assholes who use abortion as a litmus test. Howza 'bout the Constitution as a litmus test. Fuck you, Chuck "the Schmuck" Schumar. Al D'Amato was right when he called you a putzhead. How does it feel to have seniority and still be the junior senator from New York?

Stop this insane political correctness at the airport. Grandma and Grandpa are not the ones that are gonna hijack the planes. Ahmed and Mohammed are. I don't give a fuck if it is racial profiling. The most likely hijackers are gonna be Middle Eastern men. Single those fuckers out. If they don't like it, tough shit! If you assholes would police your religion we would not have to.

End all farm subsidies. One of the policies the Republican Revolution in 1994 started was weaning farmers off the public tit. Unfortunately, once Bush was elected, farm subsidies went through the roof. I didn't vote for Republicans to raise domestic spending.

I am against tariffs. History has shown that free trade economies are the most prosperous. Remember Japan was gonna bury us. They embraced protectionism. For the most part, we don't. Whose economy is in the best shape? I was against the steel tariff. I am for NAFTA and CAFTA.

Socialism doesn't work. France and Germany 10% unemployment. Ours is 5%. Our economy is growing at twice their rate of growth. Any questions?

Same with socialized medicine. Why do Canadians come here for medical procedures? Because the farking waiting list for common procedures is too long in Canada.

End the insane War on Drugs. Drug addiction is not a crime. It is a disease. More of our rights are being violated in the insane War on Drugs than in the War on Terror. Remember Prohibition? Great success. Legalize and tax the shit out of them. Use the revenue to finance treatment centers. At the least, legalize marijuana. No way do pot smokers belong in jail.

Adopt the fair tax and abolish the IRS. Any tax system where the average citizen cannot figger out his own taxes is a disgrace. With the IRS, you are guilty until proven innocent. I know. I went through an audit. They change the rules on the fly and if you protest, they tell you to take them to court. Assholes!

Abolish withholding. Make people write a check to the gummint for Social Security, Meidicare and income taxes. The tax system would be fixed in one election cycle.

Private Social Security accounts. I've been giving this a lot of thought. Half of the people in this country are too fucking stupid to manage money. These are the people who vote for Dimocrats. My latest thought is investing the private accounts in TIPS. It will beat inflation. It's guaranteed by the gummint. And it keeps the money out of the hands of unscrupulous Wall Street types.

Term limits. Congresscritters, six years, Senators, two terms.

Non-partison drawing of congressional districts. Ahnold is dead right on this one. Let's make the House of Representatives truly representative.

Arrest Jane Fonda, try her for treason, and hang her.

All the Hollywood dickheads who promised to leave the country, leave already. I have enough readers who will kick in the money for airline tickets.

I want a smaller gummint. Abolish the Department of Education. Abolish the Commerce Department.

Any law that is passed has to state what part of the Constitution allows that law. We have too many laws on the books.

Instead of passing new laws, why not enforce the laws we already have?

Reading through what I have written, you can see that I more closely resemble a Libertarian than I do a Republican or (shudder!) a Dimocrat. Our gummint has become a monster with professional politicians. The Founders envisioned a citizen gummint not a gummint ruling class which is what we have now.

I would like to see public spirited citizens who give no more than a few years of their lives to gummint and then return to private life. We do not need any more Ted Kennedys and Robert Byrds. Or, on the Republican side, Strom Thurmonds. Strom was in the Senate much too long. Teddy should have spent a few years in jail.

So all of you dipshits who think I'm a diehard Republican, think again. Bush and the Republicans piss me off a lot. They just don't piss me off as much as Dimocrats. Republicans don't want to lose the War on Terror. Dimocrats do.
