Wealth gives people options outside of government dependence and they can not stand that concept. While I can not testify under oath that all leftist politicians are not mentally challenged, I would have to guess that many of them are smart enough to understand economics well enough to know that bleeding your cow half to death doesn't make her produce more milk. So I come to the conclusion that they are so twisted that they would rather have complete control over a slum, than merely influence in a first class country. They might want to think a bit further. Poverty makes some people dependent on the nanny state. It makes other people angry and desperate. In this country, the types to get angry also own guns. Yes, I know they want to take those away too, but there are hundreds of millions of guns. How are you going to collect them all before the spit hits the fan? Damn those Chinese and their ancient curses! It is all about control. Wealth gives people options outside of government dependence and they can not stand that concept.

The money this guy spent on his campaign would have fed Africans for a complete year. This guy is a real disaster.

Off topic: I'm currently watching O'rielly... Man, this Joe Plumber shit is crazy... All he did was ask Obama a question and they got NBC Satellite vans outside his home. Investigated is backlog of taxes. All this cause he asked a question... I didn't see a satellite van at Bill Ayers house, hell i don't see anything about Acorn on any other channel but FOX. A vote for Obama is a vote to police our thoughts.

I know i am growing older but i wish somebody had sent me the memo. Nahh, scratch that, i would have to care about liberal feelings first. I am old enough and been around the block enough to know what racism is. Pull my finger, you will get the same response to false claims of racism.

I have held a military secret clearance and we go through a background check to run EMS calls which Hussein can't pass. What has this country came to? A clear and present danger is being forced on this country. Even Slow Joe Biden (after they removed part of his brain a few years ago) knows for a fact and has stated that Hussein will get a lot of Americans killed as the enemy test his resolve, which he has none of. His many attempts to surrender to the terrorist prove that. This country is in a heap of trouble.

This is the scariest part of Obama. This church is black liberation theology/Islamist/communist. It is pro Africa, anti white and Obama was a member for 20 years. Although to hear him tell it he never listened. Wright is closely affiliated with the Nation of Islam and is a freind of Farakkhan. The Nation of Islam has some scary folkes. I read an article (sorry don't remember where) a reporter called Wright's church and asked if they accepted muslims in the congregation and the receptionist said they had many muslim members. What does that tell you? What kind of muslim would go to a Christian church? This is a radical islamist type church that hates America. Wright's sermons prove that. And Obama was a member for 20 years? Good grief. And it is not racist to say this. The white people in this country will be handing these types of blacks a hamner to pound them with. The whites have moved beyond race but this type of church has not. Obama must believe the tenets of this church else he would have left this church long ago before it was politically expedient. I am afraid of an Obama presidency on many fronts but this is one that hits home most. These people want the blacks to be in the ascendant and that's where they will be if this guy wins. He has jetisoned his white side. He said so in his book. He has cultivated his black side and identifies with it exclusively except when it is in his best interests not to. So what it means is the majority of the people in this country will be subservient to a minority in power. BTW, what other country do we know about that had this situation. So you see it is possible for the US to be a thugocracy. I don’t understand why Wright is off limits. This is the scariest part of Obama. This church is black liberation theology/Islamist/communist.

Punish success and reward mediocrity. If one man works his ass off and gets paid alot, he earned his money. Why should he suffer cause some slack jawed idiot is lazy and is happy and content working at McDonald's while receiving his checks from the state. I feel your pain.

He'll silence any opposing voices with a government machine that may well turn out to resemble totalitarian regimes this country has historically opposed, in peace and in war. Liberty? Free speech? It won't be around long under Obama and friends. How can anyone support his socialistic tax plan? I can't. Oh, it won't affect me, since I'm not a high earner anyway. But it will certainly affect people I care about. Why should my son, who is paying off close to $100,000 in student loans incurred while attending one of the top universities in the land, have to forfeit one cent of his (now impressive) salary to support someone who has no clue as to how hard he worked to be where he is now? If Obama wants to "spread the wealth around", let him start with his own 4 mil a year... not ours. I'm just ranting now, so I apologize for that. With Obama blitzing my state today, I've just about had my fill. Yes, he sure draws the crowds, on a work day, no less... I'd love to see a tally of how many people attending his rallies are gainfully employed. Obama will alter this country in ways no one yet realizes.
