It’s funny that after watching this
video
assembled by, one assumes, a strongly partisan anti-Democrat, the only
one of those candidates I’d be willing to vote for is Kucinich. I’d
rather see a better candidate than that, but it horrifies me to hear a
candidate for President say that health care "will be provided for
every American."
Hillary Rodham Clinton is not a foolish person. She knows there’ll be
real costs for that health care: somebody will have to pay. Who?
Every American! So how can she say this? The only reason I can
see, like the only reason to be making promises to retreat from Iraq
within the first 90 days of a term that begins in 2009, is to gain
power. These mentions of policy decisions aren’t about real
policies. They’re about lies to the gullible in an attempt to get
elected.
I’m horrified, because there’s an excellent chance that one of these
people will be the next President. Who among the candidates is even
a little bit honest? Guiliani may be a bit of a fascist, but he’s an
honest man and a capable leader. Dennis Kucinich is more than a bit
of a fruitcake, but he’s an honest man and a smart one. Who else? I
can’t tell about Barack Obama, and that worries me. McCain, Clinton,
Romney? Even if I favored their policies, how could I trust they
would be enacted?
