Who Gets To Be Captain Of Titanic? Debate Tonight
Who gets to be the captain of the luxury liner USA whose first class passengers don't want to do all of the bailing out or pay to fix the boat and who want the second class passengers to do most of the work keeping it afloat, while promising the third class passengers a better chance to become second class?
And the band played on.....

Phat, correct me if I'm wrong, but I could have sworn you were one of the conservatives here?
Im not sure what I am. I do know that I agree with Obama more than I do Romney...Obama seems more trustworthy...but I also have gotten lectured by my Republican friends about Milton Friedman style capitalism as the "best system yet devised" for creating wealth.
I probably should read more and ask more questions rather than believing what I hear, however.

My summary? Obama will win, but I dont know anything about the direction the country will take. I just hope we dont end up deadlocked in Congress for 4 more years. The losing "team" should bow to the
winning team in the Spirit of getting something done rather than get paid to argue.
