I was dead set against them for fear it was somehow stifling the first amendment but I have since realized that in order to actually save our first amendment as well as others is to make sure no one political party has a monopoly or feels so comfortable they turn us all into meek subservient voters that must vote for them to survive. Check out Massachusetts and maybe a couple of other states to see what happens when there's no checks and balances on their power. I have evolved completely on the idea of term limits.

We need to pay attention and take action as conservatives. Right now I'm supporting a friend who is taking on the people who bankroll these big-goverment spenders. besides not voting for liberals who don't listen to reason why shake up the banking institutions who profit from big goverment deals and programs... check out http://09nine09.com and get ready take action on Sept. 9th.
