I have to admit, before I go any further: I do not subscribe to the idea of “socialism”. I like capitalism, free enterprise, and freedom of creation.
Have you been following the candidates? Have you seen Obama move radically to the center now that he has secured his party’s nomination? On the primaries he was proposing extreme left “solutions” to the issues facing the nation, he now has ”modified” them to a more centered position, almost matching those of Senator McCain.
I kind of like his new position on the war in Iraq for instance: before he wanted to bring the troops immediately home, now he wants to “consult” the top military officers before making any decisions. Makes sense.
Before he ranted against the second amendment, no he has changed his mind and believes in the right we all have to bear arms. Right on, brother.
In the primaries he clearly said he would increase Social Security taxes to people making $100.000 or more. Now he says the cap will be $250.000 a year. You go man!
And every day we are hearing the young Senator flip-flop on more and more issues.
The question here is this: is Obama changing out of conviction or to capture those much needed votes in November? In other words, was he faking before or is he faking now?
Lets assume for a moment that he is in fact a “moderate” democrat, which we know he is not, he is without a doubt, a socialist like Hugo Chavez and Ahmadinejad, (isn’t there an old saying: tell me who your friends are, and I’ll tell you who you are? Lets not forget his dear friend, the anti-America Reverend Wright) but again, for the purposes of this exercise, lets assume Mr. Obama is a well intentioned democrat who reaches out to the center. Would he be able to govern in the center with a democratic Congress? NO.
All of the supporters of Obama must understand that if he wins the presidency, he will be a “slave” (no pun intended) to the democratic Congress who will make him go back and fulfill all the extreme left promises he made in the primaries, thus we will see our country finally making the leap into socialism.
Unless you are prepared to say goodbye to our creative freedom, to our independent way of life, to our hard earned money, go ahead and put Obama in the White House. But before you do, you might want to make a trip to Venezuela, or Cuba, or, if you can’t really afford or don’t want to go overseas, go to Maine, which is without a doubt a socialist state, and you’ll have a first hand look at what is coming.
In states like Maine, you better be filthy rich or dirt poor. If you are middle class, you are in a black hole, supporting the lazy, the leaches of the world who suck the system by getting pregnant and collecting food stamps. People learn this fact very easily, therefore you see a disproportionate amount of citizens totally dependant on the government to survive.
In Maine people and businesses pay over 50% of their yearly income in taxes. Maine is the heaviest taxed state in the union. People leave Maine for 2 reasons: high taxes and lack of opportunity. Not because of the weather. And this restricted environment has been created after over 34 years of democratic ruling. And like Obama, the current governor of Maine, John Baldacci, has a close relationship with socialists like Jimmy Carter. He has taken trips to visit Fidel Castro and Hugo Chavez, both of whom Baldacci considers “friends”.
So, my friend supporter of Obama, think hard, very hard before casting your vote, because with him and a democratic Congress, the threat to our freedom would came from within, not from abroad. And also, I wouldn’t be able to use my quote: “Health and Prosperity to All”, because there would be no prosperity, and where there is no prosperity, there can be no health.
Health and Prosperity to All.
