But imminent police state or national insolvency in a few years? Those are irrational conclusions, even if they may arise from rational concerns.

It's not a left or right thing. The President would like you to think
in this us-and-them way so that he can appeal to your predjudices, but
it's a common sense thing. Here's why:
There's a difference between saying the if Mr. Kerry is elected "we're
going to get hit again" which is baseless speculation, and saying that
the country's unfunded liabilities currently lie at $45 trillion which
is greater than it's net worth - that's factual.
Saying that the police, can search your house, business, and medical
and financial records without telling you and without your permission
is a fact of the Patriot Act; and if they're mistaken, oh well, no
penalty.
The point is facts need to be put on the table, and if they stir fear,
then they do. Americans should be afraid of this President's out of
control spending and reckless foreign policy - I am.
