[GBBob]

Well....I'll open myself up to the daggers. Before the economy tanked and since Irag was always a no brainer...Here was my wish list over the next 4-8 years...in no particular order..

* Ban semi-automatic weapons and no concealed carry
* Ban the Death Penalty
* Full rights for Gays to marry
* Simplify the tax code
* No offshore drilling
* Stem Cell research at further levels
* Less farm subsidies unless warrented
* Revise "No Child Left Behind" to reasonable standards
* Revisit NAFTA
* NASA...what does it mean?
* Environment, Environment, Environment

This should be fun..

How about prohibit Ashford n' Simpson from performing anymore. Their voices no longer harmonize well together (that's the nicest way I can put it.) LOL...I love watching Larry King pretend to give a damn what somebody 5 feet away from him is saying. He asks them a question, and then just ignores what they're saying. He just wants to go check the scores of the games he has bets on.

Well I don't think gays will have full marriage rights federally, the Supreme Court would need to outlaw the death penalty, it's still too conservative for that to happen. I do think stem cell research will be expanded.

So shockingly we're not that far apart. Let me keep and carry my guns (don't currently have an active carry permit but did and want the right to get it back if desired) Kill the killers and molesters and I can agree with the rest.

Note: There are actually lake front properties nearby that recieve farm subsidies not to plant corn and to remain wetlands. These are properties worth anywhere from $1-$10 million in land with $2-$10 million homes on them. Casa Del Sueno owned by Penny P comes immediately to mind. Like she was ever going to plant a corn field. Or needs the extra $$$$.

Even I admit that my list is very left and not mainstream...especially the first two, but hey...debate is healthy.

The farm subsidies is a case of a very well intentioned bill that became abused quickly ( as if that isn't the case with many). And my Dad worked for NASA so in theory I still think they are viable, but need to be much more accountable for the end result of the billions spent.

Surprisingly I have no issue with most of your wishes. Though I am for off shore drilling and the death penalty and believe many environmental issues are completely overblown. NAFTA could use some adjustments also. Holy **** I may be turning lefty...

I thought you might have something to add on the farm subsidies since I know you are much more versed in that than I am...Do they have any merit at all anymore?

My Barack wish list:

1) An early resignation.

Yes but they could use tightening up.

When someone breaks into your house in the middle of the night, armed, just beg for your life in a very soft and tearful voice.

Yeah that gun control is a real a great idea...
