Okay. I'm going to vent. At one point I was going to vote for him but that was before I saw him for the fraud he is. If you're a Barack Obama fan it's probably best to stop here.
I can't believe so many people are falling for this. Seriously. I want hope and change too but I'm not willing to elect Mussolini to get it! Platitude after platitude is delivered and laid neatly next to the last one without the least bit of substance. Every single Obama fan I've ever met spews them out without so much as a thought as if they mean something. Ask any Obama supporter why they want him to lead the free world and they'll spit out the standard list.
1. I don't like war.
Well nobody LIKES war so you're not exactly unique. Well here's the rub...we're winning. Iraq is stable and the surge worked. Obama was wrong. Strike one. Besides, he wouldn't do anything different once he's the president because he'd listen to his generals who are all saying that pulling out immediately is stupid. Just look at the position flip after his trip there.
2. He's black.
Yes, I've NEVER heard anyone say they WOULDN'T vote for him because of his color but millions of people are going to vote FOR him because of it. There's nothing like institutional racism. One plus I guess...can I get off the hook for slavery if there's been a black president?
3. Change.
Yeah, every great facist in history has used that one. Do you have any idea WHAT he's going to change? Socialism would be disastrous in a country as large as ours. It doesn't solve anything, it just soothes the egos and fills the wallets of those who created it. If you're looking for more taxes and no incentive to succeed because you become the enemy as soon as your business is a success, vote away. How about a windfall profit tax on Hollywood? Every film that makes over $100 million has to give 20% to the government. Doesn't sound American, does it?
4. He's such a good speaker!
Yes he is. So was Hitler. It's ideas that count and he doesn't have a clue what he represents. You can tell by the stuttering whenever he's asked about it. He needs a speech writer to sound intelligent. Sounds like exactly what we've had for eight years but without the backbone or administrative experience.
Okay, I'm done.
I just get frustrated. I'm okay now.
