a point I want to make on these elections

This little rant is actually bipartisan. Which is odd for me. inspired by this link which mokes the republican convention speakers

Why is this election and administration so focused on terrorism and the 9/11 incident? It was an isolated incident. You can't defeat terrorism. That is like saying I want to defeat disease. You pick a huge range for an enemy. You can defeat Osama and his al queda. You can't defeat terrorism. terrorism is an ideology, not a singular entity. You are essentially trying to hit a moving target. Futher more, stop looking around the globe.

Protect your home. Fix your home. Don't go poking your nose where you don't belong. Fix my economy. Allow me to live my life. You can be proactive with defending our country but please do not lose yoru focus.

Help is needed at home. That should be your first priority. The parties seem to want to focus on foreign affairs/terrorism. HOW ABOUT OUR NATIONS NEEDS!?!?!

Screw Iraq's economy and well being. How about mine? Why do I have to deal wiht a topsy-turvy economy? Why are we not trying to fix this?


This nations obsession with terrorism very well could be its downfall. We are going a bit too far. Just everyone step back, take a deep breath. We are still working on knee-jerk reactions from 3 years ago!
