Obama appeals to devotees in Virginia:

I feel like we got a righteous wind at our backs here, but we’re going to have to work. We’re going to have to struggle. We’re going to have to fight.

And here is an excerpt from the writings of Chairman Mao:

The ill wind of opportunism is falling, the righteous wind of socialism is on the rise.

By the end of this year the victory of socialism will be greatly assured. Naturally there will be many struggles ahead and we must struggle hard.

Hmm. It's almost as if Obama has a Maoist hardliner supporting his team somewhere?

Hat Tip to Gateway Pundit!

IF the Obamaturd wins this election:
I will not support him
I will not refer to him as my President but as The President
I will not respect him but I will respect the Office
No. No way. NOPE to the DOPE!
I will ridicule him. Bash him. Disrespect him. Daunt him. Despise him, openly. I shall castigate him at every opportunity and every misstep he makes.  I will ridicule every proposal he makes and note how ignorant he is especially the way he speaks without a teleprompter.  I would compare his intelligence to that of a retarded turnip except that I have a high regard for retarded turnips.  I shall post the death of all Americans anywhere at any time as a result of his misguided and stupid foreign policy initiatives, and I shall cuss out and call frightful names all of his supporters.  Rightard I shall become. Obama Derangement Syndrome I shall acquire and nurture it in the depths of my soul.  I shall purchase all kinds of guns and ammo and large capacity magazines for self defense.  I shall not take anything from him that he has stolen from others even if he does call it sharing the wealth.  I shall treat him and his socialist government EXACTLY as the left has treated the Republic, the Republicans, Conservatives and George W. Bush!  I will claim that he stole the election via illegal registrations/votes and illegal donations.

This I shall do!

13 If GM Roper so despises what he perceives to be the behaviour of what he calls the "socialist left" then  why would he then seek to emulate their behaviour. This blog in general and Roper specifically has entered a sort of bizarro world, in which the authors advocate no real positive agenda of their own, but rather serve as a vessel for out and out bigotry, nativism, conspiratorial theories, red baiting and hysteria. It's pathetic what passes for serious discourse around these parts. As my friend reg says, dead men walking. Perhaps when the dust settles you guys can start doing some real soul searching. I hope you do

The similarity in language between Obama and Mao could be a coincidence.  But I don't think so.  Too much else of what Obama has spouted is socialism -- or outright Marxism.

Didn't the Bolsheviks in their revolution tout "change"?  Russia got change, all right.  And how many massacred in the Communism's futile pursuit of utopia?

Obama doesn't only want to change America.  He wants to "change the "wooooorld!"  When he shouted that phrase out, it put me in mind of the mad-as-a-hatter uncle in the film Arsenic and Old Lace.  Talk about both men being megalomaniacs!  Sheesh!

I can't say that I won't pray for Obama if he's elected.  I believe that the Bible is clear that Christians must pray for those in authority over them.  But in Obama's case, we should pray in a manner similar to the Israelites under King Saul and Daniel under the king who persecuted him.

And I'll certainly pray for our nation.

Ahmed:  no real positive agenda of their own

My postiive agenda is to leave things alone. 

I don't like a lot of change.  That's what gets us into problems.  It's fine to tweak the system to make it better, but it's crazy to dump the whole thing and start over.  I like the setup of our founding fathers better than the new system Obama would start. 

Now, with his entitlements and deferred payments being passed to our children, the college kids who support Obama will realize in a few years that they made a mistake.

Cao has it correct.  I was reading the comments, intending to say just about the same thing! Who ever wins this election needs our prayers more for our country's success than for the welfare of the winner.  The rest?!?! Sounds like a lot of the thoughts Democrats held after 2000, 2004! Maybe they included the "Prayer" line also and that's what's wrong with our country this moment in time?! Hmmmmm

17 Ahmed, there is a little thing in the US called "Civil Disobedience".  It means we have the right to let elected leaders know what we think about what they are doing that affects us, our country and our freedom.  Obama has already stated he "doesn't like parts of our Constitution"... the document that assured us our basic freedoms from tyranny  from the beginning of our history?  How dare him!!!!  I will not take up arms against my government, but I for sure will not shut up to appease a bunch of liberal zombies with Obama derangement syndrome.  As Cao said, you best get away from the ventriloquist, lest people start labelling you at a complete retard who is talking out his butt!

HoosierArmyMom:  I will not take up arms against my government

I would, but only in extreme cases.

Declaration of Independence:  We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. — That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, — That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it....

- - -

Frank, it's one thing to change the Constitution via amendments.  It's another thing to circumvent the Constitution by appointing judges who substitute their personal views for legislative intent.  Obama will not propose amendments when he gets his radical judges in place, and you know it.

Frank, I don't remember liberals protesting out of love for their country and to make it great.  They typically protest out of personal and selfish wants. 

You often see liberals refusing to salute our flag (like Obama), tearing down our military (like Obama), and only talking about what is wrong with our country (like Obama.)  Maybe you and Obama don't have a problem with the likes of Bill Ayers, but I wouldn't say that Ayers and his friends expressed love of America through their civil disobedience.  

Posted by: Woody at Tuesday, November 04 2008 10:30 AM (Eb/8J)

22 Stated perfectly Woody.  I can't expect a brain dead liberal to understand the difference between an amendment and circumventing.to push an agenda that does not reflect the will of the people.  Obama has already used the liberal media to cover up all the information about his past performance that he doesn't want the voting public to know... kind of like Hitler's tactic used to fool the German people into giving him power.

Civil Disobedience has nothing to do with breaking the laws to hijack an election frank.  The Far Left shows no respect for the process that safeguards our freedoms in doing so.

Looks like you've got a lot of writing to do GM.  After all, if you are going to list every death that Obama causes (future tense), why don't you start with all of the American deaths that George W. is responsible for?  Too fair to address that topic?

You will need to work hard ridiculing Obama, who graduated first in his class from Harvard Law.  I wonder how you would do at Harvard Law?  First in your class?

But I don't blame you.  The George W. spectacle gave us comedy for years.  The man didn't even speak proper English.  How embarassing.

So you and the other conservatives will need to desperately hang on to any negative thing that you can hang on to, but nobody will ever be as "retarded" as George Bush.  Unless, of course, you guys elect your beloved Sarah Palin.

Thanks for the laugh.  I always get one whenever I come here.  I can't tell if you guys are serious, or maybe a group of liberals trying to make conservatives look ridiculous.

"I shall purchase all kinds of guns and ammo..."

Hilarious.  Absolutely Hilarious.

Thanks again for the laugh.

From Gateway Pundit:

Obama Can't Fool God Voters-- Messiah Draws Less Support Than Kerry

Barack Obama tried to bamboozle religious voters this year with outrageous and dishonest mock "Pro-Life" websites paid for by George Soros:


Unfortunately for Barack Obama religious voters were not fooled. They understand that Barack Obama is the most radical pro-abortion and infanticide candidate in the last 35 years.

It didn't help that abortion survivor Gianna Jessen exposed Barack Obama's gruesome infanticide record:


This ad must have made an impact.
More religious voters backed John Kerry than are backing the infanticide candidate this year.
The Politico reported:

Barack Obama has courted white weekly churchgoers as avidly as any Republican-leaning bloc of voters, though it now appears his efforts may fall flat on Election Day.

The Gallup Poll now shows Obama backed by 28 percent of white voters who attend church at least once a week — a group that makes up a roughly a third of all voters — which would be no improvement from the 29 percent of these voters who, according to exit polls, backed Democrats John Kerry and Al Gore in the previous two presidential election.

Obviously, Christian voters know a radical when they see one.

Some people argue that domestic issues are of far greater importance than any discussion of character. I could not disagree more. All elections are about character. If we cannot trust the honor, patriotism, and fidelity of our elected representatives, then the issues don’t matter because whatever a candidate of low character shall say about political issues cannot matter.

I believe we each must consider the character of the two men who want us to elect them as our next president. Some may argue “What more is there to know about either candidate?” after a campaign that has lasted far too long. Ordinarily, at this point in the campaign, I would say, “nothing more.” Except in this election, “We the People” have found the press (as guardians of American democracy) seriously deficient. Rather than remaining impartial, the media has fallen head-over-heels in love with one of the candidates; we must excuse them from the jury of the court of public opinion. This year, the American people have not witnessed a fair trial.

Samuel Adams once said, "The public cannot be too curious concerning the characters of public men,” but this was long before the Obama Era. Political correctness and liberal bias have led us to outcries of racism for even asking questions not even remotely related to race.. The press castigated our friend “Joe the Plumber” for daring to ask about income redistribution. According to one radio report, the Secret Service visited a woman because she told an Obama Campaign worker that she would vote for Barack Obama, “over her dead body.” This kind of attention applied to citizens for merely expressing an opinion is patently un-American, but it is also reminiscent of the intimidation used to silence dissent in communist countries. Character matters all right, especially if suppression of the right of expression is what we can expect from an Obama presidency.

In order to assess the character of our presidential contenders, we must decide upon an appropriate exemplar. On the democratic side of the aisle, the obvious notables are Thomas Jefferson, Woodrow Wilson, Franklin Roosevelt, Harry Truman, John Kennedy, Lyndon Johnson, Jimmy Carter, and Bill Clinton. Jefferson may be too far back in time to serve as our role model. Roosevelt was a patent socialist. Truman left office as one of the most unpopular of all our presidents. Lyndon Johnson gave us too many scars. Mr. Carter was a buffoon and Bill Clinton . . . well, I wonder if we aren’t just a little too tired of hearing about him. Kennedy seems to qualify as the best Democratic Party exemplar, even if he was a womanizer; no one is perfect.

In the twentieth Century, notable Republican presidents have included Theodore Roosevelt, Dwight Eisenhower, Richard Nixon, and Ronald Reagan. Of these, Roosevelt was impetuous, Eisenhower cautious, Nixon resigned in disgrace, and Reagan was the great communicator. I therefore propose Reagan as our Republican Party exemplar.

In 1961, John Kennedy issued this mandate to the American people: “And so, my fellow Americans, ask not what your country can do for you; ask what you can do for your country.” John Kennedy became the darling of the American people; many around the world shared this view. We called his presidency Camelot. He was young, relatively inexperienced, but he excited the people about America’s future. He believed in the rights of man, a strong national defense, and the protection of liberty throughout the world. He believed that nuclear deterrence was insufficient to maintain peaceful coexistence. He believed the United States should be a beacon of hope, and he argued for increased world trade. He sought to achieve working partnerships with other world leaders to achieve dignity, justice, and liberty for all the people of the world. He sought to attain solidarity among the western (Atlantic) nations; he refuted communism as doomed to failure. He set forth an economic policy of unshackled enterprise, industrial leadership, and vibrant capitalism. He sought to lower interest rates in order to increase the flow of money, reduced government spending, and lower taxes. He also vowed to help small businesses through government loans and fair trade policy. Mr. Kennedy was a fiscal conservative.

Ronald Reagan was once a Democrat. He said, “I didn’t leave my party; my party left me.” We assume he spoke about the party of John Kennedy, a platform designed to inspire the American people to greatness. This was also the platform of Ronald Reagan. He repudiated the policy of Jimmy Carter; looking forward, he said, “Democratic politicians are without programs or ideas to reverse economic decline and despair. They are divided, leaderless, unseeing, uncomprehending, they plod on with listless offerings of pale imitations of the same policies they have pursued so long, knowing full well their futility.”

Reagan brought the American people a new pride in their country and themselves, their achievements and future possibilities. He wanted the American people to have liberty and freedom of choice, low taxes as a catalyst for economic growth. He repudiated the so-called Great Society because it created low human productivity. He fought for an expansion of private property ownership, committed himself to improved economic opportunities for black Americans, rights and equality for every minority, and equal opportunities for women. He was committed to the rights of unborn children.

Modern Democrats have turned Kennedy’s ideal upside down; now the cry is “Ask what your country can do for you.” Today’s Democrat pursues the politics of dependency, the essential breaking point between civil rights leaders Martin Luther King, Jr., and Jesse Jackson. King wanted black Americans to realize the reality of equality, while Jackson’s policies pursue racism, separatism, and demands for greater gifts from the government. King wanted black Americans judged according to their character; Jackson views character as secondary concern because the means justifies the end. King fought for unity, Jackson has dedicated his entire life to reverse-segregation.

Modern Republicans have broken faith with the American people. They broke their Contract with America. Much of what has happened since mid-2005 is the result of this failure. As a Republican, I bemoan a Democratically controlled Congress, but I realize that men such as Duke Cunningham brought it to fruition. But, before anyone starts gloating, we should note that the United States Congress today has achieved the low point of popular opinion; it cannot possibly get worse. Or, can it?

It is time to ask ourselves where Barack Obama and John McCain stand with regard to our exemplars of presidential character. We should assume that “Country First” is a sentiment that every patriotic American deeply subscribes; that all of us want to see positive changes for the future. That said, let us dispense with bumper-sticker ideology, and investigate the actual character of each candidate. Let us consider the deeds of these men rather than their words.

Before announcing his candidacy for the highest office, Barack Obama associated himself with socialist organizations, a peculiar philosophy that supports state or collective ownership of all property and the means of production. Since we achieve personal and national wealth through property and the means of production, Mr. Obama apparently believes than an egalitarian society is only possible when the state controls property and wealth. By extension, the State will distribute wealth according to its own priorities, and the State will achieve this through any number of programs, including taxation. Socialist programs relieve individuals of responsibility, for themselves, and for their families. We see this clearly in Mr. Obama’s platform:

Economic Policy

* An immediate energy rebate to American families

* An expenditure of $50 billion to jumpstart the economy

* Federal assistance to states and localities in education, health care, and infrastructure

* Implement the Congressional housing bill through state and local spending

* Federal investment in infrastructure to replenish highways and bridges

* Expenditures in education to replace and repair schools

* Immediate steps to stem the loss of manufacturing jobs.

* Increase employment and implementing shared prosperity.

* National health care initiatives

Economic Policy

* Implement immediate transparency to the budgeting process

* Evaluate and reduce spending on wasteful and inefficient programs

* Empower states to improve public services

* Implement meaningful (and trustworthy) oversight of government programs

* Make government more efficient and responsive to citizen’s needs

* Prioritize spending to improve and safeguard America’s infrastructure

* Modernize Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid Programs

* Restore Social Security to a sound financial basis

* Expand opportunities to promote personal and industrial prosperity

THE DUMBING DOWN OF DEMOCRATS - July 10, 2007

It looks like we have a high-powered brain scientist serving as the latest advisor to the Democratic party. Drew Westen conducted research which leads to his conclusion that politicians – liberal politicians -- should try and appeal to people's emotions, rather than bogging them down with data and facts.

Where did we first find out about this research? Why, at the ultra-left wing "Take Back America" convention, that's where. The study was presented by researcher, Drew Westen, a psychologist and brain researcher at Emory University in my hometown of Atlanta.

Here's the ironic part of his study. It sounds to me like Dr. Westen is basically telling democrats that their constituents are stupid. He is telling democrats to appeal to constituents' emotions because "it doesn't make sense to argue an issue using facts and figures ... or to count on voters to make choices based on sophisticated understandings of policy differences or procedures." And there you have it. Avoid the facts, just go right for the heart!

A good friend of mine sent the following. It was an open letter to Mr. Obama in part as a response to the crucifiction of Joe The Plumber and in part because whether the left likes it or not, Mr. Obama plans to steal (via an increase in income taxes) from the job creators and give to those not willing/able to be.  Mr. Miller's letter:

Mr. Obama,

Given the uproar about the simple question asked you by Joe the plumber, and the persecution that has been heaped on him because he dared to question you, I find myself motivated to say a few things to you myself. While Joe aspires to start a business someday, I already have started not one, but 4 businesses. But first, let me introduce myself. You can call me 'Cory the well driller'. I am a 54 year old high school graduate. I didn't go to college like you, I was too ready to go 'conquer the world' when I finished high school. 25 years ago at age 29, I started my own water well drilling business at a time when the economy here in East Texas was in a tailspin from the crash of the early 80's oil boom. I didn't get any help from the government, nor did I look for any. I borrowed what I could from my sister, my uncle, and even the pawn shop and managed to scrape together a homemade drill rig and a few tools to do my first job. My businesses did not start not a result of privilege. It is the result of my personal drive, personal ambition, self discipline, self reliance, and a determination to treat my customers fairly. From the very start my business provided one other (than myself) East Texan a full time job. I couldn't afford a backhoe the first few years (something every well drilling business had), so I and my helper had to dig the mud pits that are necessary for each and every job with hand shovels. I had to use my 10 year old, 1/2 ton pickup truck for my water tank truck (normally a job for at least a 2 ton truck).

 

A year and a half after I started the business, I scraped together a 20% down payment to get a modest bank loan and bought a (28 year) old, worn out, slightly bigger drilling rig to allow me to drill the deeper water wells in my area. I spent the next few years drilling wells with the rig while simultaneously rebuilding it between jobs. Through these years I never knew from one month to the next if I would have any work or be able to pay the bills. I got behind on my income taxes one year, and spent the next two years paying that back (with penalty and interest) while keeping up with ongoing taxes. I got behind on my water well supply bill 2 different years (way behind the second time... $80,000.00), and spent over a year paying it back (each time) while continuing to pay for ongoing supplies C.O.D.. Of course, the personal stress endured through these experiences and years is hard to measure. I do have a stent in my heart now to memorialize it all.

 

I spent the next 10 years developing the reputation for being the most competent and most honest water well driller in East Texas. 2 years along the way, I hired another full time employee for the drilling business so that we could provide full time water well pump service as well as the well drilling. Also, 3 years along the path, I bought a water well screen service machine from a friend, starting business # 2. 5 years later I made a business loan for $100,000.00 to build a new, higher production, computer controlled screen service machine. I had designed the machine myself, and it didn't work out for 3 years so I had to make the loan payments without the benefit of any added income from the new machine. No government program was there to help me with the payments, or to help me sleep at night as I lay awake wondering how I would solve my machine problems or pay my bills. Finally, after 3 years, I got the screen machine working properly, and that provided another full time job for an East Texan in the screen service business.

 

Two years after that, I made another business loan, this time for $250,000.00, to buy another used drilling rig and all the support equipment needed to run another, larger, drill rig. This provided another 2 full time jobs for East Texans. Again, I spent a couple of years not knowing if I had made a smart move, or a move that would bankrupt me. For the third time in 13 years, I had placed everything I owned on the line, risking everything, in order to build a business.

 

A couple of years into this, I came up with a bright idea for a new kind of mud pump, a fundamentally necessary pump used on water well drill rigs. I spent my entire life savings to date (just $30,000.00), building a prototype of the pump and took it to the national water well convention to show it off. Customers immediately started coming out of the woodworks to buy the pumps, but there was a problem. I had depleted my assets making the prototype, and nobody would make me a business loan to start production of the new pumps. With several deposits for pump orders in hand, and nowhere to go, I finally started applying for as many credit card as I could find and took cash withdrawals on these cards to the tune of over $150,000.00 (including modest loans from my dear sister and brother), to get this 3rd business going.

 

Yes, once again, I had everything hanging over the line in an effort to start another business. I had never manufactured anything, and I had to design and bring into production a complex hydraulic machine from an untested prototype to a reliable production model (in six months). How many nights I lay awake wondering if I had just made the paramount mistake of my life I cannot tell you, but there were plenty. I managed to get the pumps into production, which immediately created another 2 full time jobs in East Texas. Some of the models in the first year suffered from quality issues due to the poor workmanship of one of my key suppliers, so I and an employee (another East Texan employed) had to drive across the country to repair customers' pumps, practically from coast to coast. I stood behind the product, and made payments to all the credit cards that had financed me (and my brother and sister). I spent the next 5 years improving and refining the product, building a reputation for the pump and the company, working to get the pump into drill rig manufacturers' product lines, and paying back credit cards. During all this time I continued to manage a growing water well business that was now operating 3 drill rig crews, and 2 well service crews. Also, the screen service business continued to grow. No government programs were there to help me, Mr. Obama, but that's ok, I didn't expect any, nor did I want any. I was too busy fighting to make success happen to sit around waiting for the government to help me.

 

Now, we have been manufacturing the mud pumps for 7 years, my combined businesses employ 32 full time employees, and distribute $5,000,000.00 annually through the local economy. Now, just 4 months ago I borrowed $1,254,000.00, purchasing computer controlled machining equipment to start my 4th business, a production machine shop. The machine shop will serve the mud pump company so that we can better manufacture our pumps that are being shipped worldwide. Of course, the machine shop will also do work for outside companies as well. This has already produced 2 more full time jobs, and 2 more should develop out of it in the next few months. This should work out, but if it doesn't it will be because you, and the other professional politicians like yourself, will have destroyed our countrys’ (and the world) economy with your meddling with mortgage loan programs through your liberal manipulation and intimidation of loaning institutions to make sure that unqualified borrowers could get mortgages. You see, at the very time when I couldn't get a business loan to get my mud pumps into production, you were working with Acorn and the Community Reinvestment Act programs to make sure that unqualified borrowers could buy homes with no down payment, and even no credit or worse yet, bad credit. Even the infamous, liberal, Ninja loans (No Income, No Job or Assets). While these unqualified borrowers were enjoying unrealistically low interest rates, I was paying 22% to 24% interest on the credit cards that I had used to provide me the funds for the mud pump business that has created jobs for more East Texans. It's funny, because after 25 years of turning almost every dime of extra money back into my businesses to grow them, it has been only in the last two years that I have finally made enough money to be able to put a little away for retirement, and now the value of that has dropped 40% because of the policies you and your ilk have perpetrated on our country.

 

You see, Mr. Obama, I'm the guy you intend to raise taxes on. I'm the guy who has spent 25 years toiling and sweating, fretting and fighting, stressing and risking, to build a business and get ahead. I'm the guy who has been on the very edge of bankruptcy more than a dozen times over the last 25 years, and all the while creating more and more jobs for East Texans who didn’t want to take a risk, and wouldn't demand from themselves what I have demanded from myself. I'm the guy you characterize as 'the Americans who can afford it the most' that you believe should be taxed more to provide income redistribution 'to spread the wealth' to those who have never toiled, sweated, fretted, fought, stressed, or risked anything. You want to characterize me as someone who has enjoyed a life of privilege and who needs to pay a higher percentage of my income than those who have bought into your entitlement culture. I resent you, Mr. Obama, as I resent all who want to use class warfare as a tool to advance their political career. What's worse, each year more Americans buy into your liberal entitlement culture, and turn to the government for their hope of a better life instead of themselves. Liberals are succeeding through more than 40 years of collaborative effort between the predominant liberal media, and liberal indoctrination programs in the public school systems across our land.

 

What is so terribly sad about this is this. America was made great by people who embraced the one-time American culture of self reliance, self motivation, self determination, self discipline, personal betterment, hard work, risk taking. A culture built around the concept that success was in reach on every able bodied American who would strive for it. Each year that less Americans embrace that culture, we all descend together. We descend down the socialist path that has brought country after country ultimately to bitter and unremarkable states. If you and your liberal comrades in the media and school systems would spend half as much effort cultivating a culture of can-do across America as you do cultivating your entitlement culture, we could see Americans at large embracing the conviction that they can elevate themselves through personal betterment, personal achievement, and self reliance. You see, when people embrace such ideals, they act on them. When people act on such ideals, they succeed. All of America could find herself elevating instead of deteriorating. But that would eliminate the need for liberal politicians, wouldn't it, Mr. Obama? The country would not need you if the country was convinced that problem solving was best left with individuals instead of the government.

 

You and all your liberal comrades have got a vested interested in creating a dependent class in our country. It is the very business of liberals to create an ever expanding dependence on government. What's remarkable is that you, who have never produced a job in your life, are going to tax me to take more of my money and give it to people who wouldn't need my money if they would get off their entitlement mentality asses and apply themselves at work, demand more from themselves, and quit looking to liberal politicians to raise their station in life.

 

You see, I know because I've had them work for me before. Hundreds of them over these 25 years. People who simply will not show up to work on time. People who just will not work 5 days in a week, much less, 6 days. People always looking for a way to put less effort out. People who actually tell me that they would do more if I just would first pay them more. People who take off work to sit in government offices to apply to get free government handouts (gee, I wonder how things would have turned out for them if they had spent that time earning money and pleasing their employer?). You see, all of this comes from your entitlement mentality culture.

 

Oh, I know you will say I am uncompassionate. Sorry, Mr. Obama, wrong again. You see, I've seen what the average percentage of your income has been given to charities over the years of 2000 to 2004 (ignoring the years you started running for office - can you pronounce “politically motivated”), you averaged of less than 1% annually. And your running mate, Joe Biden, averaged less than ¼% of his annual income in charitable contributions over the last 10 years. Like so many liberals, the two of you want to give to the needy, just as long as it is someone else’s money you are giving to them. I won’t say what I have given to charities over the last 25 years, but the percentage is several times more than you or Joe Biden (don’t you just hate goggle?). Tell me again how you feel my pain.

 

In short, Mr. Obama, your political philosophies represent everything that is wrong with our country. You represent the culture of government dependence instead of self reliance; Entitlement mentality instead of personal achievement; Penalization of the successful to reward the unmotivated; Political correctness instead of open mindedness and open debate. If you are successful, you may preside over the final transformation of America from being the greatest and most self-reliant culture on earth, to just another country of whiners and wimps, who sit around looking to the government to solve their problems. Like all of western Europe. All countries on the decline. All countries that, because of liberal socialistic mentalities, have a little less to offer mankind every year.

 

God help us...

Cory Miller just a ordinary, extraordinary American, the way a lot of Americans used to be.

 

P.S. Yes, Mr. Obama, I am a real American... www.cmillerdrilling.com

8 I'll read it...this weekend.  I'm going to be out of town tomorrow.  Thanks for sharing it

You have time to read when Alabama is playing Tennessee this weekend?!?  Well, maybe if you skip church Sunday you can squeeze it in.
