		<description>Alain,

Sorry for the late reply. I have to agree with your skepticism of the Democrats. However, the Republicans have presided over the largest increase in the federal budget that I&#039;ve ever been alive for. Why do we always give the Republicans carte blanche to use the federal government when it&#039;s for homeland security, but we don&#039;t give the Democrats the same leeway with their utopian social security? Aren&#039;t both just types of security fantasy? I&#039;m seriously asking. I tend to think physical security is at least somewhat in keeping with the fundamental nature of a central government, but both will bankrupt us at the rate the feds are going, and both appear to be handled just as incompetently.</description>

		<description>They should rename the party to the Socialist Party. That&#039;s what they are. Neither candidate sees a problem that doesn&#039;t have a federal government solution.

And, as if more proof were needed that there is a liberal media bias, where is hue and cry about Hillary thwarting the will of the people? I can think of few things less democratic than the concept of the &quot;superdelegate&quot;.

Great post!</description>
