You guys are doing a very good job of laying out exactly the attitude I do not want in a leader and will not vote for.

Hey, as long as you don't vote for a Democrat.....

the obamma govt didn't fail because of republicans not reaching across the aisle harry reid held up any meaning full legislation so one party co opted the govt and the will of the people through our elected leaders. the democrats do not care about working across the aisle.

The only reason I 'asked' was because I was hoping for substance, policy, track records, maybe even facts as best that they can be sorted out. I respect that all it comes down to, for you, is feelings about wants.

I commend you for coming up with one policy, but I'd doubt you arrive at your conclusion, failure, without significant squabbles. I did though suspect that your demonizing of President Bush was due to your feelings about pet peeves, minutia.

Just because 'we don't always get what we want', we vote sometimes 'to get what we need'.

Interesting twist Craig, as usual. I have plenty of issues with the far reaches of both parties. Sorry your so offended by that. I did not demonize GWB. Sort of a catch 22 for me there was it not? Damned if If I do, Damned if I don't? I could list a ton of peeves with the both parties. Here is one small peeve, I have others. I hate the fact that the far right is continually trying to sell off the Federal lands I value so much. Remember how badly rural schools needed to be funded? A bunch of crap to further an agenda.

Wants? Needs? One thing I do not need is more of the same old BS from either party. I want a leader who is not divisive and can get things done. Crazy and a Libtard idea I know.

So you think drugs should be legal and drug dealers released from prison ?

most exchanges with you soon devolve into childish name calling, but just this once and against my better judgement I will answer you.

No I do not think legalizing all drugs is something we should do. I do think that we should treat the majority of drug use and possession as a health issue such as many European countries do. The USA has the highest incarceration rate of any country in the world. We spend Billions on locking people up in this country each year. Something has to change and a review of drug policy and mandatory minimum sentences would be a good start. A review of privatized prisons seems like another thing worth looking in to. Crime has been dropping for years yet up until recently the incarceration rate had been growing enormously.

my pet peeve is the democrats closing of land that i used to hunt or making it so restrictive that it is almost impossible to hunt.or like obamma and clinton putting state land off limits by federal decree.i was in trinidad colorado fourth of july week end i was shocked at all the pot shops my, favorite bar the monte cristo was even a pot shop.crime rate dropped cause the criminals are in jail.what do we do with criminals, what is the % of drug crimes,

According to the BOP, nearly half are in for drug offenses

Drug dealers are dealers of death.

Thus treat them as such....execute them and the drug problem and prison over crowding will be no more.
