In 2006, US voters went to the polls and told their government they wanted change in Iraq and for alot of us we wanted change in government spending and size.

Well America did change Congress but not for the better. In fact we pretty much got the same frivolous spending and no one with a clear vision to get us out of the quagmire now know as Iraq War. To be exact a UN Resolution police action, that the US is now shouldering much of the burden of, as the coalition of the fading is just that, fading.

I've heard that all Republicans should be thrown out of office, as if putting a Democrat in the White House is going to make things different with a Democrat controlled congress.

Think again. Hillary Clinton has voted for the police action in Iraq, as well as most of the frontrunner Democrats for President have, by relinquishing their constitutional duties of declaring war or military action to solely the President himself. No wonder these lawless Democrats always say it's the President's War.

Hillary said she would have never voted for if she knew what she knows now, but yet she continues to support being there. In fact Hillary is among many Senators who have said, America should pre strike Iran if we feel they are a threat and without Constitutional declaration of war.

Can we say as bombs reign down unfiltered into Iran, Iraq the sequel.

Can our country survive another 4 yrs, of reckless spending and lack of vision from both main parties in the US before something crumbles or has to give? Heaven forbid, before another 9/11.

We can not continue to police the world for a failing UN.
We need to get our priorities straight again in America, at home. This is not something that can wait another four years from now when were deeper in debt, and deeper in the quagmires of yet another police action, from more faulty intelligence.

Both Democrats and Republicans must shoulder the blame for bad foreign policy, bad intelligence, lack of vision, and getting us entangled in foreign alliances that are making America less safer.

Your right that we need a change, but I don't think we will much of one in '08.
