Obamamessiah – "Spread The Wealth" for Thee, But Not For Me
terribly early in the morning on Saturday, the 1st of November 2008 by Katie
Most people now know that Obama has a brother in Africa, living in a hut, on $120 a year.
Now, we find that he has an aunt, living in Boston, in public housing. And, she is in the country illegally. And she donated to Obama’s campaign.
“Barack Obama’s aunt, a Kenyan woman who has been quietly living in public housing in Boston, is in the United States illegally after an immigration judge rejected her request for asylum four years ago, The Associated Press has learned…. It was not immediately clear how Onyango might have qualified for public housing with a standing deportation order.”
Hypocrisy. Biden has been saying that paying more taxes is patriotic. Obama is talking about spreading the wealth. Recently, Obama has said that people who don’t want to pay higher taxes are “selfish”.
Whatever happened to charity beginning at home?
Update: Michelle Malkin has more. Including the fact that the Bush administration is now protecting the aunt.

How many illegal donations were made to the Obama campaign? Last I heard over 2/3rds of the donations (by count maybe not amount) were illegal.
November 1st, 2008 at 10:31 am
I am sure Obama “does not know” since he should be coined by now with that phrase.. along with the “above my pay grade” one… the man is a side-stepping, lying, deceptive, phony!
and the charity starts at home.. i am sure he is the last person to dip into his own wallet.. or heck even peal that penny off the bottom of his shoe.. he is well… you can fill in those blanks I am sure.. (wink-grin)

Smart political move on the Bush administration’s part, though. McCain can’t win any more points for being a Republican, but he could lose a couple. Let them send her home next week.
November 1st, 2008 at 12:55 pm
Obama cares about no one. Well except himself…
His Aunt is just another example of an illegal alien taking taxpayer handouts. Taxpayer provided housing is certain. Probably a lot more.
November 1st, 2008 at 1:30 pm
How many of us have family members we don’t know much about because people usually don’t share status .Think no one else matters wait for your job to disappear and you don’t have food or health care and see how much you don’t want any help. Easy to be critical when you still have a job and not so when overnight you can be in the street. Point is right now anyone including you can land in the street with no where to turn. Look back at Mississippi and Louisiana and tell yourself how superior you think you are.

Campaign contributions – well, that is a completely different topic. From the “get-go” Obama has been sneaky and conniving.
Originally, he signed a promise that he would accept the federal dollars (and their limitations). He kept that line until McCain committed himself by actually taking these dollars, and their limitations. Obama, then, broke his promise, and did not take the federal dollars – opening up the chance for him to make boatloads of cash. You might remember when he did this – the drool-cup media toted it as a wonderful thing, Obama was not going to “waste” tax dollars to fund his campaign – “what a wonderful guy…”.
So, now, Obama’s campaign proudly boasts that most of his money came from the small donations – checks less than $200. His campaign has since admitted that they have not tracked any of these “small” contributions. He has not recorded the names of the donors. He cannot verify that the contributions came for legal sources. He cannot confirm that some wealthy supporters (such as Soros, Hollywierd, etc.) didn’t just write thousands of small checks to the campaign.
Even Hillary’s campaign managed to track this information. Are we really supposed to believe, that in this day and age of computers and technology, there was NO WAY that his campaign could have recorded this information? Minimum waged data entry employees could have easily done this – and with the “army” of volunteers that he claims, I’m pretty sure that some of them could have entered the information into a computer….
The truth is, Obama’s campaign doesn’t WANT to know where the money is flowing from. Hear no evil, see no evil, speak no evil….
As to the newest statement – the difference between Obama not helping a relative, and the rest of us not helping, is that WE are not telling EVERYONE ELSE that they need to spread the wealth.
By the way, people who call themselves Conservative donate much more to charity than their Liberal friends. Obama doesn’t help his family. Obama doesn’t contribute to charity. Obama helps Obama. But, he thinks that WE should be forced to help whom HE sees fit…
November 1st, 2008 at 1:58 pm
Hear no evil… leave no paper trail…perhaps it is finally catching up to him…he realizes that people can read & research… and previous trails of his past have proven his connections & dishonesty… so many things have surfaced.. He denies them and his brain-dead-zombie follower’s just nod in cult unison… and jumps off cliffs at his command… once they vote… er we already know you need not be alive to vote for him… ahem.
“M”… wow could not figure out how to create a screen name, or perhaps how to write your actual name… your pity for those who were hit by hurricanes in the past… yawn sorry… hurricanes have been hitting coastal areas for a looonnnggg time.. I know people who chose to live in hard & often hit hurricane zones… they know procedures to be safe they know when to stay and when to go… those idiots who instead chose to have their hand extended and grab from everyone else’s pockets.. They lose all hope of sympathy from honest Americans… sooo sorry… no sobbing for them.
If I lived underwater like Louisiana… I would be #1 stupid in the 1st place… and or I would be prepared for the issues that occur there… that is just a DUH comment. If a person is going to put their selves at risk… they need to be ready for the consequences!
Now about knowing your relatives… Obama is running for president… he is required to prove himself… HE is the one chanting “spread the wealth”… and all the other crap spewing he has been doing… HE is the one who claims all kinds of devotion to family/roots… and other made up for the moment topics… if he is lying if he is being honest neither matter at this point.. If he is sincere about his statement then what is he doing for his “poor” aunt? How about his brother in Kenya… etc… If he is sooo generous… what charities is he supporting… who is he helping? Lead by example! Alas… If he is lying… which would not be a shock… well just a mark against him on another area!! Either way he is dishonest and he is self-serving, he is pretentious and he should not be the president of this nation for more reasons than the deceit issues…let us know if you need clarification on that too.
November 1st, 2008 at 2:02 pm
What kind of person do you want to represent ur state , a man of christian faith or a man whom does not even believe in our lord or the flag!!!! Where will ur kids be in the future????
November 1st, 2008 at 2:38 pm
So many people want to talk about obama ties and dishonsetments but what about McCain? Why is KARL ROVE helping McCain? Why doesn’t he distance himself from him? Why did McCain have to USE Palin to try to get the womens vote? That’s low and points to what kind of person he is.He said he would stop campaigning to work on the Bailout& he would get people to work with him,WHAT HAPPENED? Scars tactics, why? If Obama was that bad where was the : F.B.I.,C.I.A.,N.S.A.,HOME-LAND-SECURITY WARNING ABOUT HIM? People grow up this election is about do you want “SOMEONE THAT VOTES 90% OF THE TIME WITH BUSH”(As He Said) or do you want a change from what you have had to live with for the last Eight Years? Being sef-serving is when you put yourself before others…Like using a woman,Joe The Plumber,The Bailout,Karl Rove,False Statements,Scare Tactics,members to make false charges,and issues over nothing like wearing a flag pendant…McCain haven’t worn his over the last few days …Why? Finally,This country doesn’t need to breed hate toward Each-other…GOD BLESS YOU ,AND HE’S WATCHING EACH ONE OF US …. THIS LIFE YOU LEAD IS A TEST….ARE YOU PASSING GOD’S TEST? Are we loving each other as self? I still love McCain do you still love Obama ?
November 1st, 2008 at 3:08 pm
I can’t still love Obama. I’ve never even liked Obama.
McCain didn’t “use” Palin. He chose Palin. And, Palin is actually better qualified than the “top” of the Democrat ticket. She has actually run something before. Obama has never been solely responsible for anything. Not even a small business. Joe the Plumber, Tito the Builder, etc – all support McCain. They are not being “used” by him, any more that Oprah is being “used” by Obama.
I’m no fan of Bush. He’s out lib’d the libs. He has blown through hoards of cash. And the amazing thing is, he is still accused of being not generous enough.
Obama and the FBI, etc. – did you know that with Obama’s associations, he would not even be allowed to join the secret service?
The truth is, the Democrats loved McCain until he became the Rep candidate. I, personally, have never liked McCain, he is just the less dangerous of the two candidates. I would have preferred Duncan Hunter or Mitt Romney. But, tell me, why did McCain go from Democrat darling to hated, evil candidate? He hasn’t changed, so, why have the Democrats suddenly demonized him?

CAPITAL GAINS TAX
MCCAIN
0% on home sales up to $500,000 per home (couples). McCain does not propose any change in existing home sales income tax.
OBAMA
28% on profit from ALL home sales. (How does this affect you? If you sell your home and make a profit, you will pay 28% of your gain on taxes. If you are heading toward retirement and would like to down-size your home or move into a retirement community, 28% of the money you make from your home will go to taxes. This proposal will adversely affect the elderly who are counting on the income from their homes as part of their retirement income.)
DIVIDEND TAX
MCCAIN
15% (no change)
OBAMA
39.6% – (How will this affect you? If you have any money invested in stock market, IRA, mutual funds, college funds, life insurance, retirement accounts, or anything that pays or reinvests dividends, you will now be paying nearly 40% of the money earned on taxes if Obama becomes president. The experts predict that ‘Higher tax rates on dividends and capital gains would crash the stock market, yet do absolutely nothing to cut the deficit.’)
INCOME TAX
MCCAIN
(no changes)
Single making 30K – tax $4,500
Single making 50K – tax $12,500
Single making 75K – tax $18,750
Married making 60K- tax $9,000
Married making 75K – tax $18,750
Married making 125K – tax $31,250
OBAMA (reversion to pre-Bush tax cuts)
Single making 30K – tax $8,400
Single making 50K – tax $14,000
Single making 75K – tax $23,250
Married making 60K – tax $16,800
Married making 75K – tax $21,000
Married making 125K – tax $38,750
Under Obama, your taxes could almost double!
INHERITANCE TAX
MCCAIN
– 0% (No change, Bush repealed this tax)
OBAMA
Restore the inheritance tax
Many families have lost businesses, farms, ranches, and homes that have been in their families for generations because they could not afford the inheritance tax. Those willing their assets to loved ones will only lose them to these taxes.
NEW TAXES PROPOSED BY OBAMA
New government taxes proposed on homes that are more than 2400 square feet. New gasoline taxes (as if gas weren’t high enough already) New taxes on natural resources consumption (heating gas, water, electricity) New taxes on retirement accounts, and last but not least….New taxes to pay for socialized medicine so we can receive the same level of medical care as other third-world countries!!!
Basically, McCain is on the right side of almost every argument….
November 1st, 2008 at 3:15 pm
Like the world says, only in America will the likes of Obama become president. (of all places, America)
What else will it take for Americans to admit that the currupt Africn blood of his father runs through his veins
November 1st, 2008 at 3:53 pm
Ummmm, did I say anything about race? I don’t care what race Obama is.
I don’t like Obama because of what he says, what he does, who he calls friends. I don’t like him because of his “spread the wealth” mentality. I don’t like him because of his donations to Afrocentrist groups. I don’t like his tax plan. I don’t like his drilling beliefs. I don’t like his hints that spreading the wealth and slave reparations can go hand in hand. I don’t like the fact that he supported the killing of live-born infants. I don’t like his ties to ACORN. I don’t like the fact that we know nothing about him. I don’t like the fact that the media has failed to do its job. I don’t like the fact that he is grossly unqualified for the job. I don’t like the fact that he is the least experienced person to EVER run for President. I don’t like his anti-American stance. I don’t like his support of the UN. I don’t like his global tax plan…..
None of these thing have anything to do with his race. They all have to do with him…
November 1st, 2008 at 5:27 pm
Im a felon not able to vote.and im glad.
it proves that it doesnt matter what i vote theres gonna be an outcome of our country that has been being groomed for centuries.. im not sure how the polical folks put it but in my beliefs, its Gods plan to restore life as HE wants. He said and has proven what he creates comes back with great success…
the world as a whole is coming to an end. all we re doing is speeding up the pain process by dividing and fighting the true nature of humans..some of us cant even look in the mirror and recognise where an whom the blame lays with.. ourselves.. everyone of us has caused this to happen… by giving up what our forefathers gave their lives for.. fought till the death to provide a self sufficient country.. not run around creating drama and death . i.e
all this as i see it is a product of repression control and greed..
and lawlessness.. we need to get back to the old days of deputizing and lynchin..no more..oh poor mass murder there there.. lets feed you and respect your rights// there there person that mutalated a childs life by molesting them.. we will give you protection and let that child act out anything natural or even a result of what you did.. and we will make a law that keeps them from ever living a normal life.. i.e perpetrator law.. forever on your record no matter what it was or what age they were. or how long they suffered from what YOU did.. and what the American politicians and judges did..by passing the law.. noo instead lets give you housing and money.. because you are a grown up and didnt know any better eh..? noo i say kill them.. make the next ones think twice..
drown your babies, hang them in texas.. well ladies.. lets give you a taste of your own.. make an example.. so it stops..like it did in the courthouses back in the day. eye for an eye is what i say.
father illegitimate babies and leave.. mandatory vasectomy. and make them register. women who have babies and purposely sit on their asses and watch judge judy instead of providing safe homes for the children they have..and make more, with the intentions of raising more just like them.. mandatory tubals..hey.. they can always adopt when they get rich.. pay back to society.
keeping our own back yard cleaned up..we ve abandoned our selves our families and country out of GREED..
Granted this may be deleted.. im not the most intellegent person.. im a female who decided to borrow my friends car and didnt take.. well couldnt take it back as it broke down. My friend didnt want to press charges but the state of arizona said he was a victim and charged me with a felony..the car was not to be taken 200 miles away on a trip with my husband..a felon i was unaware of..
anyway. i started to write this for my boyfriend and co driver.. yes we re truckers.. now its sure to be deleted…
until i read the voting patterns of the two. i was voting .. if i could for obama.. why.. because my man his family and my friends said to.. i dont vote also for religious reasons.. so its not that hard..stone me. for those that criticize me.. imagine if i voted wrong.. so .. best leave that up to the educated people..
anyway.. he says let obama get in.. we re heading for a depression and also a revolution.. he says “band together brothers, we need to put the PEOPLE back in power, this country was formed on freedom of religion and over taxation”..I see what could happen..is gonna happen..makes the civil war look like a game of marbles.
most of society these days are either obese marshmellow poverty level welfare abusing habitual criminals when it comes to federal money abuse.
and the ones who sympathize with them. shame obama. shame mccain.. clean up your back yard..
breaking the law of the land is not conditional on whos loins you come from.
its a law. period..
then theres the obese marshmellow insanely rich mindless jellyfish self absorbed in the lifestyles of the rich and famous..
that are just as bad. and those that support them too.. shame on you rich people for glamorizing greed and lawlessness.
then theres a few of us.. we ve been bent broke and got back up again and kept focusing on the right things to do..work, generate modest lifestyles with in our means.. yea i got my kids ice cream because i worked 50 60 sometimes 80 hrs a week .. a single mom. doing mans work.. not living on welfare as a lifestyle. as a hand up when times were tuff.. only temporary as it was intended..
Now thanks to the feds, and society my children and their ..women..i use that term just to describe gender..theyre not real women.. but they believe hey.. welfare. like winning the lottery.. in installments.. make the rounds to the career welfare ladys out there.. hell i bust my ass and they live better lives than i do..
Im the mother of 3 boys. men now.. all of legal age to be drafted.. ive had this vision since my first was born , now 24 hard working and loves everyone but values his freedom and enjoys his fruits of his labors.. when he was born in 1984 he was # 21 of 23 baby boys born in a row..
so i guess since 1984 ive been well aware of where this is all going.
we re selling out to foreign countries.why.. because our welfare has created career criminals to actually purposely destroy their lives and those around them by deliberately chosing to live below the low income level so they can stash the free cash.. wake up..
you all know whos doing it.. everyone is equally responsible for not regulating themselves to live within their means.. nooo welfare is not the lottery.. if you cut your hand.. if i cut my hand.. i have to wait till i can deliver my products before the first of the monthers.. so all the welfare folks can waltz in after they hit the e.r and buy all those goodies..
and when i get an appt or not.. and i need something from walmart.. alot of times theres not enuff products of what i needed left.. look at the gallup walmart on the first of the month..
i wait ridiculously long lines just so i can doctor myself… i already pay 90 a week for ins.. no thanks on the increase..i cant even afford to use mine already.
I make 60 k a year.. i give to my family i shell out hundreds of bailout money to them.. i.e. food shelter..emergencys.. tuff love is not in our family.. thats what also is the problem. abandonment..
im 43 and im still trying to teach my grown men ..my sons.. that the end is coming.. and God help us all if yer sitting there with yer feet propped up living like none of this matters..
dont wait for a blogger or a yahooer or cnn to tell you omg we re goin to hell in a hand bag.. they only tell you what they want you to hear…cant create fear and controversy in saying.. hey. ah. american people..well.. we didnt want to alarm you too soon, as we had to wait till yer pants were down to tell you.. youre screwed.. why.. because you let us run your life..its been real.. its been real fun too.. playing war/..watching people jump out of windows to collect ins money to help their familys before there aint none..
oh and the best.. watchin all the stupid people breed and cause a major strain in all aspects of life..
that s why we got them immigrant aliens like auntie here.. she knows how to survive a week on a piece of rice..an shes got alot of people banded together to fight all yer latte drinkin mcnugget eatin lazy fat ass ,harley driving yuppie mushy wannie babies assholes..we dont even have to use force to get it started..just elect to sell out the american people.. they will cause mutiny and then we can do to them.. our americans what we ve been practing on the irags and whoevers…because the people are out of control.. i.e martial law.. careful…big brother is listening.. he dont want you to know that any day now.. hes gonna chose his live over yours. no matter what master he answers to..as long as hes wakin up to screw things up.
Pick what you want from this.. its alot.. one day at a time is what obama and mccains wife had to do.. for the purpose of the big picture..
im sorry but if anyone thinks that there is a safety plan for us.. wake up.. you want to talk about terrorists.. theyve been breeding here for centuries.. theres soo many that theres no way to tell who from who anymore.. children raised for this day.. familys banded together.. or do they call that regimes/// even americans.. full red blooded generations of red neck wild cats just waiting for the day.. walkin around in suits and ties, driving big ol semis , fords with fear this on it.. we come from all walks.. good an bad..
then theres the common good hearted peaceful folk farming raising food to feed anyone that buys it. so they can live life in harmony with the communitys theyve help create.. with blood lives long hours suffering so the people of the world will not starve and they can grow better beef etc..
now they want to tax the rich guys..noo theyre taxing all of us.. look at it this way.. free range eggs..cost more.. so we all pay more.. no choice.. medical care..same..no choice.. tax anyone more.. we all have too much damn tax..why.. we dont give back some of what we have to society on our own.. GREED//
but tax me an if i have something to sell.. well for you.. its more. for my neighbors.. in trade.. thats how we do things around here..
sooo.. good luck in the revolution.. i know what im gonna do.. do you..can you start a water well flowin when the indoor plumbing you got stops workin..
i do.. can you make a latte on a camp fire.. i can.. i even got a friend who will give me free milk if i make one for them. you see.. turn your back on your neighbor.. go ahead.. but whos gonna watch yers when natural disaster and plague and famine and greed and pestilence and prophesys hits you..
do you know where your kids will be..i do.. collecting materials to build generators and water storage and supplys// and yeas.. yall try and take it with out contributing. yer gonna git shot. learn to network in face to face not interspace internet and iternally me isms..

I think your kids may look at a trip to walmart alittle different.. maybe think more locally minded and not so gosh darn commercially package pretty paper on the same exact thing that came from.. news flash .. a farm..
I guess you could take them to ohio.. an meet some folks who lost the only income they had when the factories shut down.. ya know.. they still would invite you in and offer you some of what they had..or anywhere theres people who believe in quality of life not quantity of STUFF.
and ice cream.. make your own. get those heafty little couch potatoes churnin the machine..heck go milk a cow.
oh.. and stop wasting your time argueing over whos right or wrong..just do the best you can to make your feet head in the right direction..one step at a time.
try changing yourself and who knows by example maybe more will follow.. not force your religion or opinion till you cant even mention Jehovah witness without a fight.. catholic with out the imagrey of children being abused by trusted ministers..or those that start communes.. hey.. theyre used to be and still are tribes of people.. no law against it.. granted if there is foul play.. eye for an eye..

If there isnt a fancy car in the driveway . or a huge house driving up the taxes on everyone in your zipcode..would you be less of an american or more of a realist .. money is not the answer.. sweat equity in human lives..
when was the last time you picked up a piece of trash just because. just one piece. no not in your own house.. anywhere..or put smokers 30 ft away.. but dang give us an ashtray..
when was the last time you actually asked someone hows it goin and actually waited for an answer.. eye contact..a nod.. for cripes sake cant you even wait till i got my foot ready to hold the door before you barge in past me.

spend the money on charity.. spend the money on your drug ridden hoods, cleam them up.. support law enforcement, start a more active day in making a difference in our world..
give up the news, give up walmart, promote independance. Get to know your rights and watch out for the day theres only one.. the right to remain silent one store one doctor one cow left to split 140 billion ways..
watched a movie one time.. thief in the night.. i think pottershouse promotes it.. not stating for the religious publicity.. just something to think about.
An if you suspect anyone.. even you obama..oh an ahem. Mr bush..is this how you handle serious potentially dangerous sensitive issues.. by ignoring them.. im glad youre outta here.
if you know of someone who is breaking a law and committing treason by letting aliens stay till and election passes..
I say they should be arrested as sympathizers and have to go thru the same process as the rest of us..
i know i know my great grand parents were immigrants.. from germany..and holland and scotland… what if i were spewing this back then..
the law of the land is this NOW.. for a reason.. no one shall be allowed to reside in any country of which they have not declared citizen ship to..the process is also a law.. apply , get approved, stay, denied.. leave.
Oh.. i bet theres little ol auntie hiding some dirty reletives down the street at the hilton.. right obama..
Hide in the light.. thats the best trait of the enemy..be close to your enemy..

Afro Americans have been struggling to make ends meet for long time and now that you all feel the pinch as we do, you think we need to put a republican in office again? You have lost your jobs, houses,lost of love one’s over seas, so tell me do you think we need the same thing for next 4 years? You need to ask yourself are not voting for Obama because of his color or you don’t like his views.Don’t you think we need a CHANGE!
November 1st, 2008 at 8:17 pm
Robbie- A) Obama is a christian and B) If he wasnt would it matter?
November 1st, 2008 at 9:36 pm
Funny how some people believe everything thing they hear when it comes to Senator Obama. I love Barack Obama. One should listen to his whole answers and not just take fragments. I am a hardworking professional American, no children…every president so far has taxed the hell out of me.

It is amazing that people don’t focus on the issues as much as they focus on their personal lives. I have heard that Sen. Obama did not help his aunt, is it possible he did not know? What about the Christian values in the White House…yeah, I am looking forward to the chance of having a hockey mom whose teen age unwed daughter is going to be near the White House, whose “baby’s daddy” is going to be a high school drop out to get a job…No birth control, no marriage before baby and no education to boot…..I see why Republicans are determined to stand behind the candidates.

Mstricia: How many Republicans represent predominently black neighborhoods or cities? I would think you’d be embarassed to put your problems on the President’s Office. Every time a Republican does something that should be considered “pro Afro American” like vouchers and many other things the black establishment either opposes it or sluffs it off as nothing. I think its time for Afro Americans to finally realize that they are being used and abused as a voting block and purposely kept down… not by Republicans who have tried time and time again to raise them out of it and give them a “hand up”. They get rewarded by black voters voting and working against them. The Democrats, who rely on your unquestioning vote, year after year make sure you NEED them to insure black voters must vote for them for hand out programs. I really do understand why in this particular election you might feel more enthused and more a part of the political process but I would ask you not to let the Democrats get away with what they’ve been doing all along. Big Government makes sure none of us get ahead unless we go through them first.

AMY…It seems that you are the one who doesn’t focus on the issues..how could OBAMA NOT KNOW the status of his aunt when his aunt even attended when he was sworn in as an ILLINOIS SENATOR. Secondly, if you have a NEPHEW who is a LAWYER, are you not going to contact your nephew and ask for his legal opinion as to what you must do when you’re application for political asylum was denied and ordered to leave the country?
What kind of christian values are you talking about….killing innocent babies because someone got so excited about sex and didn’t bother to get protected? The boyfriend of Palin’s daughter can still go to school even if he is married. She is not the only American girl who got pregnant before getting married. REPUBLICANS ARE BEHIND THEIR CANDIDATE BECAUSE THEY BELIEVE THEY ARE BETTER QUALIFIED…OR LET’S SAY THEY ARE THE LESSER EVIL.
DEMOCRATS ARE BEHIND THEIR CANDIDATES BECAUSE YOU BELIEVE YOUR CANDIDATES CAN DO MORE THAN THE OTHER PARTY, EVEN IF THEIR CANDIDATE IS A PATHOLOGICAL LIAR AND GOT QUSTIONABLE ASSOCIATES.
Don’t even think I am a racist….I am an Asian so I don’t care if you are black or white. It is who you are that matters.
And we work hard for our money to meet our financial obligations – for that my wife works 2 jobs and I am on early retirement due to disability. We were never on welfare, and yet, we pay more taxes because of working double jobs. And we didn’t get a single penny from the STIMULUS refund program that the government distributed this past tax period.
The Democratic presidential candidate is a LAWYER….LAWYERS say things nicely so the jurors will acquit their clients….and in the process they make you believe that what they say is the FACT…OBAMA SAYS WHAT PEOPLE WANT TO HEAR SO AS TO GET THEIR VOTES.
HIS MOTTO IS “CHANGE WE CAN BELIEVE IN”. Unfortunately, his direction of change is for the worst. You want to stand behind him..so be it, but then, be wise and fair if the republicans want to stand behind the republican candidates – NOT BECAUSE OF A BLIND POLITICAL IDEOLOGY BUT BECAUSE WE BELIEVE THAT THE CANDIDATE IS A BETTER CHOICE, JUST AS WELL AS DEMOCRATS BELIEVE ON THEIR CANDIDATE. YOU ARE ENTITLED TO YOUR OPINION AND CHOICE, SO ARE WE.

Everything that has been happening…you not getting any stimulus refund, paying higher taxes; Republicans being put on trial for corrupt dealings, hurricane survivors not getting the help they need….seems like this has happend while the Republicans were in office, so yes, I am looking for change, it can’t get any worse than now, especially at a time when Republicans are not looking like the rest of us liberals and what not; foreclosures, filing bankruptcy, jobs closing down…yeah, I AM ready for a change.

I am not sure that the Republicans giving African Americans jobs to meet a quota is really giving a helping hand, or making African Americans feel inferior and the only way they can get a job is to fill this quota so businesses can get government money. What about not having a job because it can be done cheaper overseas. Who does that help here in America?
Why is it that African Americans need vouchers and stuff, why can’t African Americans be treated equally like everyone else, after all, they live in USA as well, so why can’t vouchers be given to all across the board, why can’t education be equal across the board. African Americans are the only group that I am aware of that has to be signed again by the president to have the right to vote; why?
Maybe African Americans are tired of being looked at as tokens and brush off the “bones” that the Republicans are throwing.

Republicans on trial for corruption – true. Stevens is an embarrassment to our nation. But, as you notice, the Republicans are not supporting him. Look at the Dems. You have “Cold Cash” Jefferson, Nancy Pelosi (and her questionable money deals), Barney Frank, and Charles Rangel to name a few. So, Republicans do not corner the market on corruption.
Hurricaine survivors – should look to their local government first. Before Katrina, Bush was begging Nagan to evacuate the city. Nagan refused. The blame for Katrina starts at the bottom – people should have been responsible for themselves, then to the city, then to the state. All of these failed. Yet Bush, the only Republican in the picture is given all of the blame. Our nation has dumped hoards of cash into Katrina relief. For our efforts? Whining that it isn’t enough. Using the money for “worthwhile” things such as tattoos, beer, plastic surgery.
Foreclosure crisis – again look to the dems. They are the ones that had their boyfriends and supporters running Freddie and Fannie. They are the one who forced banks to make bad loans. And also, look to the individuals. They should have read the paperwork. Every mortgage has a “truth in lending” form that requires the mortgagee’s signature. Every mortgage breaks down the monthy payment schedule, including all amounts monthly collected for escrow accounts. The mortgagees are responsible to review the paperwork. They are the ones who should ultimately accept the blame for taking money that they knew / should have known that they couldn’t repay. Unless you are saying that the mortgage company had a gun to their heads….
If you want school vouchers, then McCain is your man. The democrats (for the most part) do not support vouchers. For this decision, the Democrats get the endorsement of the Teacher’s Unions. If our school systems were businesses, they would have failed. The teachers’ unions are largely to blame for this. It is virtually impossible to “fire” a teacher once they have tenure. The teachers should be rewarded based on their product (just like most of the rest of the American work force).
I have every faith that African Americans are as capable, strong, intelligent and worthy as any other group of our population. That is why I do not like the quota system. By imposing a quota, the government is saying that they do not believe that a segment of the population is good enough on their own (sort of like the golf handicaping system). I think that the message of the quota system is a horrible thing for our youth to be saddled with. It is not fair that they should be taught, by the quotas, that they are not equal, that they need “special help”, and it is so unfair to those brilliant individuals, who have made it on their own merits, to have their co-workers sniping behind their backs that they only got the position to fill a quota.
I, too, am looking for a change. Just not the change that Obama seems to be threatening. I want to keep what I earn. I want the government to get out of the way of my success. I want my children to succeed in life. I don’t want hand outs. I don’t want an enforced year of service. I want the right to raise my children in a way that meshes with my beliefs and values. I want smaller government.

I just wanted to respond to B’s statement:
“What else will it take for Americans to admit that the corrupt Africn blood of his father runs through his veins”
Ignoring your disgusting racism B, I’ll point out that the problem is with the treacherous blood of his mother- she’s a direct descendant of… Confederate President Jefferson Davis. Once a traitor, always a traitor- that, my friends, is in the blood.
It amazes me that this has not received more coverage- it was mentioned in an article in the Atlantic, and I’ve seen it mentioned elsewhere as well. I guess the nation has lost its sense of irony and con no longer appreciate the humor in a descendent of Jefferson Davis being anointed as the vehicle for racial reconciliation and the dawning of a new age.
