mmmm, not really seeing the villainry of people who make jets and tanks.
Brown & Root here in Houston, I believe was a big military builder during Nam.
They still employ a jillion middle class people, and pay a durn good wage...

... but I know what you're saying... If I was in a room with Dick Cheney, would he acknowledge me? I dont know.

I could tell him Im also very Bible Thumpy and Im definitely in the pockets of Big Oil.

Big Oil is the reason my kid's school kicks ass, and my entire town profits from
their presence.

Of course, I'm a minority, so according to Some, I cant even get into the room. But I dont believe what Some says.

I am, when it affects my ticket prices, and the long term solvency of the entire league.

Where did I say theses guys are villians? I just don't think my interests and their interests are the same...and I admittedly could be wrong, but since I haven't made a fortune, I am going to do whatever I can do to keep as much money in my pocket as I can. I don't believe that raising my taxes is going to do that.

If they take the money out of their pocket, I am going to be happier, and I never said it was fair. It is just what I would choose if given the opportunity and that's one thing that I think we had to decide this election year.

Whether you think you can or think you can't...you're right!

... you just better hope he's not in that room quail hunting, ... but that's how I interpreted it. This election was kinda' goofy to me, I saw people who would benefit from Obama's policies voting for Romney & vice versa. All I could assume (there's that word again, maybe I should start a thread, ) was that they didn't really grasp the issues.
