2012 Election

Polls show Obama ahead of Romney in early August in the run up to the 2012 election.  One thing Obama says is true. It is a watershed election and the choice voters make in November will decide the future of the Nation.  It is a clear difference.

With Obama we get more federal government, more federal intrusion into our lives, more federal disruption of the economy, more destruction of our system of federalism, and more failed federal programs.

With Romney we get a rein on the growth and instrusion of the federal goverment into our lives and, hopefully, a brake on the runaway federal spending.  Without fiscal restraint and common sense approaches to federalism, the Nation (the federal government) is doomed to fail. Which raises a question.

Is the federal government the same thing as the Nation?

If our government fails, our country also fails. That includes our way of life, our freedoms that have been purchased and maintained so dearly and perhaps the future of our children and all future generations.
