The Bailout

  1. I am a young, liberty-loving, tax and spend government despising person who voted for you here in Oregon. Don’t get too excited, I protest voted for you just because suck a little less than the 2 major party candidates (which isn’t saying much). At least you paid some lip service to the values of small government, low taxes, and freedom that I hold dear.

    I am a true Libertarian, and I have looked at your entire voting record… thanks for the Patriot Act, a-hole. You voted to tear down the Constitution and strip American Citizens of our Liberties, and yet you are the best candidate the Libertarians could come up with?

    You voted yes for no-child left behind… oh yeah, the Federal Government controlling the educational system, GREAT idea. Oh yeah, expand that government to encroach on every aspect of American life, that is really Libertarian. And on, and on it goes. You voted for big spending and big government on every issue just like the rest of the pseudo-conservative Republicans that got the boot in 2008.

    No wonder your Presidential run couldn’t pick up any momentum… Your only appeal is that McCain and Obama are complete idiots, and some of us would rather vote for an idiot that hasn’t a shot in hell so that we can’t blame ourselves as America goes to hell in a handbasket. Your time in Congress showed that you are just a big-government, anti-liberty crony like the rest.

    There is truly no place for real conservatives in this sorry nation. There is big spending, reduction of Liberty, and creation of a bigger and bigger big brother ala 1984 from all sides. Even the fringe Libertarian Party can’t come up with someone better than a yes-voter for the (un)PATRIOT(ic) Act of 2001?

    What kind of a nation is my generation inheriting? I am saddened to think I will have another 15-20 Presidential elections to vote in where my only choice will be between BIG-BAD-Government and BIGGER-BADDER-Government.

    I wish we could resurrect Ronald Regan and actually hear the words “government isn’t the solution, it is the problem” out of the mouth of a candidate who has a shot in hell at winning. I would happily be a Republican if Regan were back.

    If the Libertarians are ever going to have a wider appeal, we have to come up with a candidate who has actually DONE SOMETHING to reduce the size of government and take back our freedoms, not someone who handed the American people’s freedoms and a blank check to the Bush administration. You were just a yes-man to Dictator Bush. You were part of the Congress that expanded our government to a bloated, obese size and busted our budget, and you didn’t stand up for the ideals that you were supposedly running for president under. SHAME ON YOU.

    Libertarian Party, you can do better. If you don’t do better, you won’t be getting any of my votes in the future — I’ll just write myself in.

  2. I want to know if any of you who have an Appraisal Business, or Real Estate Office or Residential Construction Builder that is less important than Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, GM, Ford or any of these Banks ?

    Has the Gov. contacted anyone of your business for a Bailout? Is it just because you are not doing $Billions$ of dollars of business?

    Is the Gov. using our Tax money to bail out SOME business and not all of us?

    Who is Representing the Small Business?

    Is this Taxation without Representation ???

    Who are you going to call ?

    Who cares if an Appraiser, Broker & Agents or Builder looses everything just because the banks will not loan money?

    Call your State Reps NOW and tell them that ALL of these Bail Outs are WRONG. Send money to the People!
