Antileftism

I am actually looking for feedback from both Americans and Europeans...
I am a libertarian, socially liberal and fiscally conservative political person.
I would like the foreign relations to improve dramatically.
I really dislike members of Bush' cabinet, namely Rove, Wolfowitz, and Rumsfeld and Cheney, who i feel got us in this Iraq mess. We have by far the most elite military ever seen, we took out two countries in an unprecedented amount of time, and in Iraq, it was like, once we overthrew Hussein, sort of a lost, "now what?" sort of performance.
We cannot afford the present entitlements the US has in 10-15 years as it is, yet Bush rolled out another one, in the Medicare drug benefit, 600 billion or more over ten years we cannot afford. ENTITLEMENT REFORM MUST BE D0NE, AND DONE YESTERDAY.
though i voted for him in 2000, Bush has been somewhat embarrassing. I like his get after 'em attitude on the radical isalmists, but how do you offend the whole world in doing so? that takes effort.
and so on and so forth.....but the alternative?
Kerry. a northeastern elitist lawyer who has never held a real job outside of politics. NEVER get entitlement spending reform with him. Has no clear agenda. NO ONE seems to get a great way of getting the Arab opinion back on our side is to resolve, forcibly, if necessary, the Palestinian issue. We forgot that most of our European friends do not want to bring us down or weaken us, but do want us to refrain from really messing things up, as our hyperpower status allows us to do. (France excluded) I see nothing to make me think Kerry is a viable alternative, due to his party's knee jerk love of more social spending, when we have no flexibility to have more, it needs to be reined in....what's a thinking american to do when given two bad choices? Choosing between bad or worse is horrible....Can i move to England or Australia? Well educated hard worker, here, lol, I will be a good citizen.......what should an American with no real choice do here? hope for a split between congress and the presidency? Move out of the country, lol?
