Anyone smart enough to be President and run the country properly is
smart enough not to go under the scrutiny involved.

Besides reflecting on Walker, it also shows the problems with the
kind of programs typically championed by libs. Whenever you have
govt making business decisions, deciding which companies to give
special loans or investment to, picking winners and losers,
it almost always leads to problems, corruption, economic inefficiencies, cronyism, etc.

When I was a kid, we had elected representatives. We,
the people ran the country.

Per Robert Green:
Here's an idea. We *draft* the next President from a pool of people with at
least the minimum qualifications that don't want anything to do with the
job. Couldn't do any worse.

I would propose that one of the qualifications be that the nominee does
not want to be president. Truman, Ford.... pretty good presidents by
the historians' accounts I've heard... neither wanted it. Powell did
not seem to want it that badly - and I would have voted for him
partially for that reason.

Same with cops. If I were hiring, a guy would lose points for "always
having wanted to be a police officer".... I'd favor the guys who just
want a job.

Powell would have made a pretty good President, I think. He was quite
astute when he warned that our excursions into Iraq carried long-term
danger. He said, simply "You break it, you own it."

Same with cops. If I were hiring, a guy would lose points for "always
having wanted to be a police officer".... I'd favor the guys who just
want a job.

My sister the judge says the problem with a lot of cops is that they took
the job not to be public servants, but to be able to drive really fast and
carry a gun.

"The major problem--one of the major problems, for there are several--one
of the many major problems with governing people is that of whom you get
to do it; or rather of who manages to get people to let them do it to
them.
To summarize: it is a well-known fact that those people who must want to
rule people are, ipso facto, those least suited to do it.
To summarize the summary: anyone who is capable of getting themselves
made President should on no account be allowed to do the job."

I'd want a guy or gal the could follow orders. Shoot to kill when I
told them to. I voted against hiring a guy that questioned my
authority to instruct him in his duties an responsibilities.

Out voted, but it came back to bite other panel members in the ass.

Either that, or the war of northern agression.

I think that we should have congressional term limits. Congress has gone from being a collection of representatives to a ruling aristocracy. After 20 years in congress, I don't think that they're out of touch with reality.

With being blocked by one poster, you got to be
like the prisoners who are a few days in, and
it finally hits, "mah ah gonna be in dis plays
for a while." Really heart breaking.
