Thoughts.com Blogs - Political Ignorance

Readers,

I have seen so much ignorance in this years election, that I must vent! Although I am a die hard republican, our party has not been spared the ignorance demon this time. So let me start......

John McCain: Man, what can you say about this guy. Left a wife who stuck with him through his captivity after she became chair bound. Will be the second oldest president ever elected, if he gets so lucky. Was known for his side of the isle switching and for promising to support one thing but then in the end, changing sides. As a Republican, went to work with Feingold......Need I say more.

Clinton: I could talk for hours, but I will keep it short. The real estate scandal, her sudden "residence" in New York so she could run for congress. No surprise that she made her residence in an extremely liberal area. Her living in OUR White House on our tax dollar yet she rented rooms to her friends and pocketed the money. So much more but here is her best.... Her communist health care plan. Her plan would make it MANDATORY for all un-insured families to purchase this government healthcare. If they do not they will be fined, and her planned amount is $350 per uninsured family member with a minumum fine of $500. If you do not pay the fine you can be arrested and serve time. Now if a family could afford insurance now, do you not think most would have it. Not to mention "free" or "government" healthcare would bankrupt our country.

Obama: A man who refused to take the oath of office in Illinois(for congress) on the Bible, only the Koran and yet now disputes having any ties to the Muslim faith other than his Grandmother. He even goes further and say he is a devote Christian. As a Chritian he supports abortion including late term abortion???? Does not add up. Rezco, a major scandal so far and it is not even fully open to the public yet. Obama is a man of rhetoric, yet to this point has laid no serious plan on the table for the change he keeps talking about. Only thing i have heard clearly is that he wants to send the equivalent of one years revenue of our federal government to Africa. What is this guy smoking? He says he can take us out of debt and yet wants to send a full years revenue to another country which the amount is, I believe, 6 times our total debt. OH BOY!

What I am getting to is this. Obama and Clinton are supported by 93% of the able voters on welfare, 93%!!! Of the populus making less than $12000 single or $20300 for a family, Obama and Clinton are getting 71% of this groups votes. This alone should show what the democrats really support. POVERTY. Not everyone in poverty is there due to decisions they made, but most are. They dropped out of school, are baby making factories, do drugs or are alcoholics, been in prison, etc. Do these people really think Obama or Clinton will swoop down with a red suit and cape and make everything better. that somehow these two will be able to make them rich. COME ON!!!! They also claim they can make gas prices go down, that somehow they will convince the investors and the Sheiks to make less money so that we can pay less for gas. And they will do this without pissing off Greanpeace by exploring for our vast resources of oil in our own country. LAUGHABLE!

And the people who gave McCain the nod for the republicans, Was this the best they could do??? There were much better men running and yet we sent them home so we could have McCain. What a joke!

Now McCain will win. But the day is coming soon when this country will be ran by people probally worse than Obama and Clinton. We are on a path to socialism and i think that day will be soon. I hope most of America wakes up soon, and regardless of your political affiliation, demands that every candidate is a person who does not falsely pander to the poor, is not a person who wants to take more of working America's tax dollar and give it to those who choose to live in poverty, a person who does not have scandals a mile wide, and a candidate who does not have ignorant written on their forehead. But until we as the voters shed our ignorance, the politicians will never do so either!
