Positions Regarding Obama and Why You Should Care?

Position: Barack is a socialist and is against capitalism
Reasoning:

• He was a member of the New Party
• His father was a Communist
• The people he has the most in common pretty much hate America. (Ayers, Wright, Khadlidi, Khalid)
• He probably received foreign aid while going to college
• He supports far more progressive tax policy and income redistribution
• He supports further nationalization of industry within our country
• He believes a mortgage is a right in this country not something you have to work hard to earn
• He believes in an United Nations solution even within the borders of the United States
• He blames the ills of African Americans in this country squarely on capitalism

The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism, but under the name of liberalism they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program until one day America will be a socialist nation without ever knowing how it happened.
- Norman Thomas, six-time Socialist Party presidential candidate and one of the founders of the ACLU.


Position: The Media is in the tank for Barack Obama
Reasoning:

• The media portrays negative reporting on McCain at least 2:1 to Obama
• The media ignores serious issues about Obama that Americans want to know about
• Organizations like the New York Times and MSNBC have abandoned their principles and have ultimately become corrupt just to manipulate the truth to directly aid in getting Obama elected – What country are we in anyway? Is this America or Poland?
• The double standard and sexism displayed toward Palin is downright disturbing

If you don’t read the newspaper you are uninformed;
If you do read the newspaper you are misinformed.
-Mark Twain


Position: Obama is going to raise taxes on 100% of Americans
Reasoning:

• The expiration of the Bush tax cuts raise taxes on 100%

Income Under Bush Under Obama Obama Increase
$14,000.00 $0.00 $1,200.00 $1,200.00
$50,000.00 $5,000.00 $11,460.00 $6,460.00
$100,000.00 $18,620.00 $22,395.00 $3,775.00
$250,000.00 $63,945.00 $72,434.70 $8,489.70
$1,000,000.00 $325,206.50 $428,825.00 $103,618.50

• An increase in the corporate tax is directly passed onto consumers
• In comparison to McCain’s plan our GDP will grow at about half the rate as it will under McCain’s plan and therefore is an additional tax on ALL Americans to the tune of over $200 billion a year.

I contend that for a nation to try to tax itself into prosperity
is like a man standing in a bucket and trying to lift himself
up by the handle.
-Winston Churchill


Position: ACORN is a corrupt and illegal organization
Reasoning:

• They receive millions of taxpayer dollars because of their non-partisan status, they are clearly partisan and therefore breaking the law
• They have a 10 year track record of voter fraud convictions in multiple states
• Investigations are currently underway in over 15 states where voter fraud registration has been found in staggering amounts. On average over 33% of all ACORN registrations have been found to be fraudulent
• Ohio is reporting over 40% voter fraud with absentee ballots submitted and guess by who?
• The founder of ACORN was one of the founders of SDS
• ACORN was started to further the concept of creating re-education centers in this country to indoctrinate our nation’s youth to radicalism and anti-capitalism. Gee isn’t this what the brown shirts were all about?
• Obama with Ayers helped ACORN and provided funding with clear knowledge of the ACORN agenda
• The brother of the founder of ACORN embezzled over 1 million dollars (including taxpayer monies) and ACORN neglected to report the crime

A government which robs Peter to pay Paul can always depend on the support of Paul.
- George Bernard Shaw


Position: Obama belief of a bigger tax code and government is the answer is a fallacy
Reasoning:

• Existing compliance and enforcement of our progressive income tax system hurts our economy
• Over 3 million man hours a year is wasted on tax compliance, that is basically the entire life of over 9,000 people a year
• Our GDP is reduced over $200 billion a year just in compliance issues
• The cost of compliance is passed along to all consumers in the form of raised prices
• Does anyone want to try to calculate the cost of lost opportunity each year with over 3 million man hours wasted?
• The IRS is used as a political weapon and American citizens become targets of our government
• The US government has shown time and time again it is the biggest waster of tax dollars
• The crony system of quid pro quote and paybacks is corrupting our existence at the core
• Does anyone want to calculate the cost of doing business inside our government because of the crony approach to buying votes and support?

Government is the great fiction, through which everybody endeavors to live at the expense of everybody else.
-Frederic Bastiat, French Economist (1801-1850)


The impact of an Obama/Pelosi tag team on our country will be a huge increase in spending and taxation and quite frankly our economy cannot handle it. It will wreak a level of economic loss we haven't seen in 100 years and will take decades to recover. It just isn't a formula that is going to work at this time.

In general, the art of government consists of taking as much money as possible from one party of the citizens to give to the other.
-Voltaire (1764)


As far as voter fraud in any flavor we need to stomp it out and NOT allow any of it. I think our voter registration system is very important and our country needs to get serious about a uniform voting registration system for national voting. It is pure insanity to me that someone can vote in the majority of states within this country without having to prove who they are! Voting is as much a responsibility as it is a privilege and freedom. I constantly hear about it is too difficult for some to get an ID in this country - seriously those same people would have no problem getting an ID to buy liquor or get into club...Why do we continually have to keep lowering the bar in this country.

What this country needs are more unemployed politicians.
-Edward Langley, Artist (1928 - 1995)


Why aren't Americans demanding more from their politicians in the area of accountability. Joe you even said Barack's strategy of "not" voting, etc was a brilliant political strategy - just so the American voter cannot figure out the truth about Obama. Do you feel the same way about the manipulation put forward by someone pulling a long con?

Why is it we leave in an age where Americans are not voting on what people actually stand for? Everything is parsed and manipulated to cater to emotional hot buttons within voters - for one goal - win the election. Americans deserve better than that. Americans deserve to be heard and they deserve the opportunity to vote for candidate that actually agree and support their views not some manipulated perception because the candidate feels the end justifies the means.

Obama claims he will unify and bring together America. He has never worked across the aisle on anything substantial to demonstrate that he is even capable of that. The only unification he brings to the table is one of wild spending and taxation and the further bloating of a horribly inefficient and wasteful government.

McCain is the only candidate within our existing government that can claim he works to bring people together. He is as much of a Democrat as he is a Republican. America needs openness and passion for a stronger America right now not a candidate that is looking to further punish America because he has an agenda of solving the ills of America through legislation. You can't help a person until they are ready to help themselves.

Unfortunately the Democratic party continually ignores and hides its over 100 year track record of segregation and manipulation of Blacks in America. It is insanity to me that a party like that can stand up and say they are for something when their entire existence has been based on something else. The fact that Byrd is still in the party is the biggest slap in the face of such causes in America.


A government big enough to give you everything you want,
is strong enough to take everything you have.
-Thomas Jefferson
