HOWDY FOLKS! (ya like that down home hello do ya?)

Welcome to the home of the
"NEW AMERICAN COMMON SENSE PARTY".
(hereinafter referred to as NACSP)

Yep, that's right people, it's time to take America back. Enough is enough. It's time we quit electing the same crooks and scumballs over and over again. Quit pulling the all Democrat or all Republican lever because your daddy was a Rep. or a Dem. God gave you a brain, (oh my goodness, your blogger believes in the Creator, he must be an idiot) use it to study the issues and the candidates before you go to the polls. Before you vote for an incumbent, look at his voting record and see how much of YOUR, YOUR KIDS,
GRANDKIDS and GREATGRANDKIDS hard earned tax $ he voted to waste on porkbarrel projects. With the deficit running in the trillions, congress still doesn't seem to get the message. Of course not, they don't care about America, they only care about getting reelected. We have built a house of cards based on greed, and it's going to come tumbling down if we don't fix it SOON.

A SLIGHT, BUT RELEVANT, DIGRESSION

This is a bit off the current topic, but very relevant. I just finished reading a couple reviews of Donald Rumsfeld's new autobiography. The only surprise is instead of kissing ass, the reviewers came away with the same view of Rumsfeld that I formulated after watching him in a couple of news conferences in the ramp up to, and during, Operation Iraqi Freedom.

Basically Rumsfeld is the epitome of the genius who thinks he's the only real intellect and everyone else in the world is an idiot. And.......doesn't have a lick of common sense due to a complete disconnect from actual reality. I, and many, many others, said at the time there is no way you can control a country the size of Iraq, with a population of 11 million, with 180,000 troops. We couldn't do it in Vietnam with a half a million. And I forget the actual figure but you need to realize that only a small percentage of troops, I'm thinking 25 to 30% if I remember right, are actual combat infantry and armor. The vast majority are needed for logistics and other types of support.

He is extremely arrogant, refuses to admit he himself has ever been wrong, blames all the problems on other people and wrong information.

Hope his book is huge flop.
