Why are you voting for Obama?

[nnuut]

Steady,
See there we agree, except that I am not really wordy with my posts. I tend to condense my post down to the real point of what I'm trying to get across and skip all the conjecture, feelings and other possibilities. Just no talent for that so I don't, but do try and be truthful most of all.
Oh, I don't share your opinion about our current President. He has had to deal with many very difficult problems during his time in office. I'm sure his critics could do better themselves.

Who really needs more than a million bucks a year anyways?

I'm at a loss for words except that's not the American way and I'm not sure now what -ism dictates how much money a person is allowed to make. But you are free to give away any money you make that you feel guilty about or is greater than a million to anyone you want to. Maybe tell Ray Lewis he's not allowed to make over a million a year. How old are you?

So I guess the greatest reason why I'm even voting at all is because I believe the right President can make a difference; and not be a puppet and not be confided to the exact same BS and Government that has trapped all the others.

I am not participating in the survey, I'm voting the other way.

But Steady, do you believe that their are puppetmasters for both sides of this coin?

Peace!

I think the USA is the place to be, and yes it is GREAT!! :nuts:

I feel the same way !!

Sorry about this morning - it was years of uncovering this and that and the more I found the Truth in regards to International Conflicts - the worse I felt.

The USA is a wonderful place and has so much to offer and so many beautiful places. The communities throughout are wholesome, dignified, safe and largely family oriented and respectable.

The Problem is not the USA; the problem is a President who is so driven to be "The Best President Ever" when suddenly he takes the place of the former President who was suddenly assignated. Who boldly lies to the USA to wage a war. Once that war is in place the next President does even more (even shocking the Senate and everyone else) - all to fuel his own "Political endeavors". This is what stands out to the rest of the world, not how we as a Nation really are. Or one who states we are going after WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION and finds absolutely nothing; but the Oil is top priority and that's the bottom line.

So it is not that I am wanting for us to lose everything so others can have more; I have never pushed for Socialism (in the sense CB, Viva La Migra, Birch and others speak) But my greatest longing ever is for the rest of the world to know how wonderful the population of the USA really is; and not be blinded to all the good because of One Ambitious Leader who has the authority to do whatever he/she desires.

But FOLKS - I'm probably the biggest idiot to even believe what I'm saying - because in all reality most of what happens is probably over the President and he's simply a puppet to the ones really in charge.

So I guess the greatest reason why I'm even voting at all is because I believe the right President can make a difference; and not be a puppet and not be confided to the exact same BS and Government that has trapped all the others.

We'll always have the poor with us. Two reason's that people are poor are laziness and stupidity and there is no cure for either, but hard work and a lot of folks will always avoid hard work, especially if they know that Uncle will give them money.

Why bother working when uncle Obama, uncle Reid, and aunt Pelosi will act like Robin Hood and give them money for nothin.

That's OK if the lazy and stupid stay poor. What about the hard working smart poor people not asking for Gov help that don't have a chance? Who really needs more than a million bucks a year anyways?

Because, in my opinion, this economy needs regulation. The rich will always find a way to stay rich, and the poor need a chance to get rich. Without regulation, the poor can't get rich. Prosperity doesn't rain down.

My reason is more about voting AGAINST McCain than voting FOR Obama. (and voting AGAINST Palin - if she became president, Lord help us all)

Though I think Obama is capable. I am concerned he may have a steep learning curve to go but that is still better than what we would have to endure with McCain and Palin - i.e more Bush.

I am the opposite of you. I not so much voting for McCain as I am voting against Obama/Biden and their socialist agenda.

I'm tired of old white guys running the country.

I'm disappointed Miss Piggy. I wouldn't expect to hear such racism, sexism, and age discrimination from someone in love with a green, thirty-eight year old frog!:nuts:

 

[Buster]

I guess the MAIN REASON is because he is the very FIRST PRESIDENT that I consider as a REAL HOPE towards a Global Society.

Stark reality is you will have to share everything you earn or have with the masses...Not while I have a breath in my body

I'm sick and tired of the President's acting like "We are the Greatest Country on the Earth".

We are...what's the problem?

Come on steady..

I'm sick and tired of the President's acting like "We are the Greatest Country on the Earth" and therefore have every right to do whatever we want to any other Country on the Planet and tough luck if we Wipe them out with Atomic Bombs and Radiation, if We Destroy their Rain Forests and fill their areas with Mines and cause at least half the population to suffer from PTSD and Severe Anxiety Disorders (let alone the endless malformed births due to the toxants we filled their lands with) and because we regard the Native Population as 'Sand Nigers' that are meant to be our slaves and want nothing more than their Oil. But we are justified because all we have to do is say they are "Radical Muslims" or "Terrorists" - (since communists is an outdated word)

No one could have bought into this mindset more than me; NO ONE was more ready to wipe Iran off the map (except for a handful of "Americans") because NO ONE was more a part of this garbage mindset and convinced "we are right and doing the honorable thing".

Then over the years you find WE ARE THE BAD GUYS AND IT IS "US" WHO DELIBERATELY PLANTED AND STARTED ALL THE PROBLEMS FOR THE PURPOSE OF TAKING WHATEVER WE WANTED AND TO PUSH THEM TO WAR SO WE COULD USE OUR POWER TO DEFEAT THEM

So that's why I'm voting for OBAMA - because I am totally American and I actually believe we can be the country we are meant to be; people of integrity who live right and do justly - AND WHO CAN GAIN THE HONOR AND RESPECT OF NATIONS AROUND THE WORLD.

You know that McCain is nothing like Bush!! McCain and Palin will get rid of some of those Old White Crooks!! I don't know about you people but I'm color Blind, and don't care if you are purple, just what you say and do.:nuts:

I'm just tired of being an old white guy.

How is calling President Reagan "Ronnie Ray-Gun" not taking the low road with names?

Typical Liberal double Standards..

During his years of public service, Ronald Reagan earned the nickname "The Great Communicator"

 

[The HalfBreed]

How is calling President Reagan "Ronnie Ray-Gun" not taking the low road with names?

Are you too young to remember the Star Wars defense initiative and such. That name was coined due to that tactic. Star Wars and Ray Guns.
Hence his nick-name....Ronnie RayGun

Sigh.....

 

[McDuck]

Ronnie Ray-Gun gave us/ya'll FERS.

I still don't understand why some folks want to take the low road with the names tho.... I thought most intelligent people were above that, but I guess not.
