My Mistake

One of my friends on my 2nd Amendment group had a confession to make today...and I find that I made the same mistake he did, I just wish I could have stated it as well as he has:

This is difficult for me to admit but I need to do this: My liberal friends were right!!!

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

They (My liberal friends) told me if I voted for McCain, that the economy would get worse, and sure enough unemployment is approaching 10% and the stimulus packages recently sent the stock market lower than at any time since 9-11.

They (My liberal friends) 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 (My liberal friends) told me if I voted for McCain, we would see more "Pork at the Trough" in Federal government and sure enough, 17,500 "Pork Bills" showed up in Congress in just three weeks.

They (My liberal friends) told me if I voted for McCain, we would see more deficit spending in D.C. and sure enough, President Obama spent more in just 30 days than all other Presidents together in the history of the good 'ole USA. A 3.8 trillion dollar budget, with a 900 million dollar per day interest on this current debt.

Well I ignored my Democrat friends in November and voted for McCain.

--And they (My liberal friends) were right. All of their (My liberal friends) predictions have come true..(emp. mine D)
