About this user
I'm here to amuse, challenge the hype, and encourage people to become independently informed. Don't just jump on a bandwagon. Educate yourself.
Know the facts: Obama has a philosophy of socialist government programs, higher taxes, heavy handed government regulation, and a very weak national defense.
These are not empty attacks. If you dig a little bit it's all out there. It's in his own memoirs, voting record, and policies. Throw in some very questionable associations, and you basicly have a used car salesman with bad ideas. He talks a good game, but there have been plenty of lemons sold to unsuspecting victims who just walk on the lot without doing their homework first.
What about HOPE, CHANGE?
Our major obligation is not to mistake slogans for solutions. A nation of sheep will beget a government of wolves.

I am not a republican, or a democrat. But my views are similar to a very large percentage of Americans. Dick Meyer of National Public Radio had this to say about it: Poll after poll, focus group after focus group show that the vast majority of Americans are pragmatic, independent, and un-partisan in their basic views. They are eclectic: "liberal" on some matters, "conservative" on others.
Don't buy what the celebrities, confused hipster teens, and the other true-believer cult members are selling. It's a false hope. It's the same tired old 'big government, higher taxes, weak national defense, pseudo-socialism' the democrats have always advocated.
And when it comes down to integrity, patriotism, character, and the company he keeps... The democratic nominee for President has some real big issues.
The greater danger for most of us lies not in setting our aim too high and falling short; but in setting our aim too low, and achieving our mark." -Michelangelo
