Wonder why our government is making us go broke? Hillary and Barack are promising some big things that we cannot afford. McCain is flopping around on the tax cuts. Who's the right person to get us back up and running? Food for your brain. Good luck on your decision.

Had to dig around the source site a bit before taking info at face value. Claiming bi-partisanship, but giving all democratic members grades of "F", while all republicans received "A" grades... further looking in my 5 minutes revealed the president, Duane Parde is a member of Phoenix Strategies :
Phoenix Strategies
Former Executive Director- ALEC
Now works for corporate consultancy Phoenix Strategies in Washington DC.
Phoenix Strategies www.phoenixstrategies.us 1425 K St. NW Suite 350 Washington, DC 20005 202.587.4799 dparde@phoenixstrategies.us Phoenix Strategies"..was established as a consultancy, our team includes seasoned and professional senior level members of the Bush administration with strong experience in Federal as well as state and local intergovernmental affairs and corporate relations.

Parde was formerly Director of State Affairs for the Council for Affordable Health Insurance (CAHI) and also worked for the Kansas Attorney General."
Transparency is government, whether republican or democrat is pretty murky-especially when you really start to look at affiliations and such—nobody is really who they seem to be or represent (I am finding).
I feel for the next 3 presidents after Dubya, the mess he has created will be with us for a long time...
Your articles, although generally very right-leaning, definitely help to open eyes to questioning and further research of both sides...always good for a person who votes beyond just gut instinct/party line.
