Don't Gloat

Today's contribution is from my friend Cal, Freedom's pal.

Much as it pains me to say this, I have to admit it ... my Democrat friends were right.

They told me if I voted for McCain the nation's hope would deteriorate, and sure enough, there has been a 20 point drop in the Consumer Confidence Index since the election, reaching a lower point than any time during the Bush administration.

They told me if I voted for McCain the US would become more deeply embroiled in the Middle East, and now, tens of thousands of additional troops are scheduled to be deployed into Afghanistan.

My Democrat Party friends told me if I voted for McCain that the economy would get worse, and sure enough, unemployment is approaching 9.5% and the stimulus packages that were implemented sent the stock market lower than at any time since the Islamic Terrorists attacks of 9-11.

They told me if I voted for McCain we would see more "crooks" in high ranking positions in federal government, and sure enough, several recent cabinet nominees and Senate appointments revealed resumes of scandal, bribery and tax fraud.

They told me if I voted for McCain we would see more "pork at the trough" in federal government, and sure enough, some 17,500 "Pork Bills" have showed up in Congress since January 2009.

I was also told by my Democrat friends that if I voted for McCain we would see more deficit spending in Washington D.C., and sure enough, President Obama spent more in just 30 days than all other Presidents together in the entire history of the USA.

Well, I voted for McCain in November anyway, and my Democrat friends were right ... all of their predictions have come true!

And the scientific community is united in that fact.
