Penn's Right...AGAIN!

But I don't think our next president being a great leader is a good thing.


I'm worried about someone smarter than Bush taking over that tremendous
power. Charisma and ambition increase my fear exponentially, and a
great leader scares me to death.

We need someone stupid enough
to understand that the president of the United States can't solve many
problems without taking away freedom and therefore shouldn't try. The
only reason John McCain
scares me a little less is because I think he's a little less likely to
win. They both promise a government that will watch over us, and I
don't like that.

I don't want anyone as president who promises
to take care of me. I may be stupid, but I want a chance to try to be a
grown-up and take care of my family. Freedom means the freedom to be
stupid, and that's what I want. I don't want anyone to feel my pain or
tell me to ask what we can do for our country, or give us all money and
take care of us
.

That's what it all boils down to. The President shouldn't be involved in my daily life other than the things Penn states. Freedom to be who you are and to succeed and fail at life is one of the most fundamental rights we have as Americans.

Yet, both candidates want to be more involved in my life, and many Americans want that too. Do you want your taxes to go up because someone sits around all day long watching Jerry Springer and not getting on treadmill, and they "can't afford" medical care? Do you want your 401k to dwindle because Obama thinks that Wall Street needs to be taxed heavier? Do a little research, you'll find your 401k retirement account is probably FILLED with stocks that will see an almost 100% increase in taxes (from 15-28%).

I want someone who's not a religious nut, who doesn't want MORE of my money, and who is supposed to to the job as President, and not as King.
