- He claims to lower taxes, yet his plan calls for an increase in capital gains taxes, creating an estate tax of around 50%, not to mention he has no explanation of how he is going to fund the billions of dollars worth of new spending he is proposing. He does not even know (or disclose) if his plan will raise taxes on those making 250k and up or as low as 120k and up. That will depend upon how much his programs will cost, so there are no guarantees with this big spender. How do you think the government pays for these new programs? Bureaucrats aren't taking salary cuts for it, that's for sure. Obama believes that by saddling the middle and upper classes with more tax burdens, he can level the playing field to help out those who would rather not work hard. "Spreading the wealth around" is a socialist principal which has no place in America.
- He wants to put a time table on the war in Iraq. He has absolutely no personal experience or knowledge about military tactics or strategies. He will not listen to advise from qualified generals, but would rather risk our safety in order to please the hippie liberals. He proposes cutting our military budget and halting further exploration into missile defense systems. While countries like Iran plot against us, he would put us at risk by cutting into the protection of the American people. Where is that military money going with our increased taxes? Government run health care, tax "breaks" for the unemployed who don't pay taxes or contribute to society, and a host of other frivolous expenditures that Americans cannot afford. Simply enough, he is not qualified to make these kinds of decisions in such a turmoiled world.
- He is completely clueless when it comes to energy. He advocated tapping Americas strategic reserves in lieu of more drilling. The strategic reserve is our country's emergency supply that has been building up during the Bush administration. He advocates clean coal one day, then denounces it the next. The same is true for nuclear power. He does not understand the needs of the American people or the danger of our continued reliance on foreign oil while new technology is being created. He does not have the knowledge of these resources in order to make wise decisions.
- Obama wants to take our guns away. The solution to our "clinging"to them, is apparently, to rip them out of our hands. The founding fathers wanted us to have the right to protect ourselves from a corrupt and dangerous government like the one he is proposing. He even advocates bans on hunting rifles and ammunition. As for myself, I'll be purchasing a few more guns of my own and stocking up on ammo between now and January just in case, if that socialist is elected. I suggest other lovers of America do the same. He would also rather leave the single mother helpless in the case of a break-in. She could be beaten, raped, robbed, or killed. With no weapon to protect herself, Obama is condemning her to this fate by enforcing gun bans. Is it better that the helpless citizen die, than the evil-minded criminal? According to Obama, yes! Criminals will always find access to weapons. If they cared about the law at all, they wouldn't be in the profession they're in.
- In addition to all of this, Barack Obama is a morally bankrupt man. He believes that the unborn have no rights. He opposes bans on partial birth abortion, proven by his voting record. He and his wife believe that white people are somehow inferior to black people. Their attendance at Rev. Wright's church for 20 years proves his appreciation of this philosophy. In addition, he has referred to his grandmother as a "typical white person." Just what is a typical white person? Racist? And what does that make a typical black person? What if John McCain had used that phrase? His wife, Michelle has allegedly referred to members of the white race as, "whiteys." As opposed to what? Blackies? This kind of moral ignorance cannot be tolerated in our citizens, and certainly not in our leaders, particularly the Commander in Chief.
Thankfully we also have the choice to vote for John McCain.
- If you are sitting on your butt collecting welfare, no, McCain is not going to help you out with tax credits. He is going to continue to lower taxes across the board, but at the same time, he will slash spending and work to balance the budget. He will combat earmarking just as he has done throughout his career. He will veto frivolous spending ideas from Congress, and allow businesses to grow and thrive without smothering from the government.
- As a proud servant in the U.S. Navy, McCain knows the ins and outs of the military. He does not claim to know it all though, but humbly takes advise from top U.S. generals who have first hand experience with the Iraq situation. He fought for the troop surge even despite its unpopularity. McCain can be trusted to do the right thing regardless of how it will affect his ratings. He is a true leader we can trust, taking good advise when appropriate, while going against the grain when in the best interest of his country. He can be trusted to handle delicate situations with skilled diplomacy and with force only when necessary.
- The McCain/Palin energy policy involves covering all of the bases. He wants to encourage nuclear power, clean coal, wind, solar, and other alternative energy options. At the same time, he knows that the shift cannot happen overnight. In order to protect the Americans from gas prices and from terrorist oil producing nations who would seek to harm our country, he advocates tapping into America's own oil resources. Sarah Palin is all too familiar with America's oil potential from her experience in Alaska.
- John McCain wants to allow Americans the fundamental right to protect themselves from criminals and from their government. He believes that we should have the right to protect ourselves by use of deadly force if necessary.
- John McCain believes in the sanctity of life. He and his wife, Cindy have adopted children of their own and understand first hand the benefits that can come from unplanned pregnancies, when babies are allowed the right to life.
The choice is clear. Barack Obama is going to tax us to death despite his fairytale-like claims. He will endanger this country with unwise cuts to the military while refusing to ween America from dangerous foreign oil. In Obama's world, people will work for no incentive, terrorists leaders and diabolical masterminds will sit down and negotiate peacefully with capitalist countries, criminals will hand over their weapons, and unicorns run free in fields of flowers.
Please vote for McCain tomorrow, for your safety, economic prosperity, and for the future of your country. I've done what I can, and hopefully I've reached some....
