Obama

I am no poitical whiz to say the least. What concerns me and is actually worrying me even more is the seemingly unawareness of the general U.S. population of who they are about to elect for president. It is becoming more and more clear that Obama has some serious background issues that portray his beliefs more clearly than the words he carefully speaks. But what is in the heart cannot help but flow off the tongue eventually. Obama's "spread the wealth" comment is very disturbing. When you combine the comment with his past dealings with questionable parties a true picture is finally being portrayed of who and what this guy really stands for. I honestly believe that he thinks taking from the rich and giving to the poor is the answer to our problem in America. Under an Obama presidency it seems to me that my best bet for the future is to lean towards being on the more poor side of life since it is unlikely that I will ever be rich. If I can reduce my income I can qualify for some of this wealth re-distribution. Why would I want to work hard to make more money if I can be better taken care of as a poor person under an Obama spread the wealth presidency? An Obama presidency pretty much plans to take from the wealthy to give new programs to the poor. Where is the motivation for the poor to better themselves? To get a job and have a career if they are taken care of better being poor?

One would think that in our great nation there would be people shouting form the rooftops the problem with Obama's theories. Is it because simply that he is a liberal that the mainstream media is so in love with him? I realize he has great oratory skills and is a people person who is great at speaking and motivating crowds. So was Hitler. I am not cmparing the two. I only see that Hitler was also a great public speaker and able to convince thousands of people that his way was the right way because of his oratory skills and the ability to inspire hundreds of thousands of people. Obama has the same ability to seemingly influence the masses. The problem is that I don't believe the masses are smart enough to see what this man is proposing.

The polls have me worried that Obama is going to be the next president. However, maybe my worres are unjustified. I honestly believe the polls are severly flawed. Who knows how manipulated they are? If they can make it look like a runaway victory for Obama how many McCain people just stay home and throw in the towel? Or will America's conservative right rise up for a big push at the polls because of what the polls say?

I used to say that after working in retail so long I was losing my faith in humanity itself after dealing with so many shall I say "challenged" people. Ok let me just go ahead and say it..... idiots. I am convinced we live among a great number of idiots. I am talking about people who simply have no clue to current events, basic common sense, etc. People that are swayed by whatever sounds good at the time. Kinda like the people who bought $300,000 homes with a mortgage payment of about ohhhh maybe $800 a month, totally oblivious to the terms of the loan meaning their payment could jump to $3000 per month under certain circumstances, etc.

I think we all want "change". We all agree W wasn't the answer for our multitude of problems. I am not saying McCain is, yet, I believe that he has a much better grip on what we need in the future than Obama.

As for foreign affairs again it is obvious Obama has not a clue as to the seriousness of the tensions we are living in. I don't think McCain is exactly Mr right either as I feel like he will be sort of like a sherrif with a big gun, but again, I feel he is a better choice than Obama. I would rather the the dictators and tyrannies of the world view us as a country with a president they don't want to mess aorund with than a country they want to test. I don't think they will feel the temptaion to "test" McCain. I think there is no doubt they will test Obama.

Ok now I feel better....
