My sense is that he is intentionally being as vague and mercurial as possible so that he can win and then so he can govern as he see's fit when and if he is elected.

(Although he does have some ideas/promises (not vague) that are truly horrendous such as fixing military spending to 4% of GDP!)Stevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13854614498391635494noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7464708.post-43336930649502083012012-07-06T10:22:16.894-04:002012-07-06T10:22:16.894-04:00"They absolutely refuse to move from their po..."They absolutely refuse to move from their position that the solution to the economic malaise is to pay more money to government employees and to fund their pensions."<br /><br />I don't understand.

Aren't government employees incompetent enough as it is?<br /><br />Or, can they keep doing these things, as long as they also do (a-b-c) above?Luca T.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7464708.post-8464441174558078542012-07-06T10:04:57.257-04:002012-07-06T10:04:57.257-04:00Very nice JT!
