CONFUSING, MIXED SIGNALS

Our Republican Nominee makes a speech celebrating the reduction of hostilities in Iraq while on another TV station they are announcing a bloody raid and in a two day period, we lost 10 more service people with at least 17 wounded, not to mention how many innocent Iraqi's were lost.

Then the following day, Gen. Petreus goes before a Senatorial body and warns them against troop reductions, making it clear there is no clear cut picture of where we stand or where we are going, except it is costing us 2 billion a week, not to mention the fatalities.

The truth is we are going nowhere! Iran is getting closer each day to posing a serious threat nuclear threat and nothing is being done to lessen the threat. Hostility also exists in other parts of the Globe, China, North Vietnam, Syria, just to name a few.

We have isolated ourselves, we are engaged in a no win war, our economy "sucks", our candidates are arguing over who "signed off the war" first and none of it makes any difference, it isn't important. We can't even get a clear answer on how we intend pulling back if the exponents of a withdrawal win office.

All this adds up to a dilemma that takes a negotiator of unquestioned talent who must become the leader if we are ever to regain our former stature in the eyes of the world, bring our economy back to where it was, put an end to favoritism toward lobbyists who contribute the most.

There is only one party that can handle this almost formidable task, the DEFICIT REDUCTION PARTY. Vote DRP in November, and vote again, and again, and again, and often.
