Just do a little fact checking before you jump too fast on what seems like a good deal. Usually if it's too good to be true.....you know.
Of course, some nut case will jump on this and say "Do you really think it would be like Cuba? Your stupid." It's how it starts.
Its not gonna be like that. I know about castro.

10 minutes out your day. Seriously research his rise to power. I think you will see some similarities. And trust me, the people that believed it would be good, never imagined how it turned out.

These guys have been running this campaign over 1 1/2 years, and 6 days before the vote this all of a sudden comes to light? The Ayers controversy is nothing compared to this one. Hmmm. Maybe one last hugh smear campaign before voters head out? Guess you gotta try all the trash politics you can to win. So much for integrity.
Hey journey, weren't you the one not too long ago that said the Palestinians have turned the corner, and are no longer a terroristic threat, and are one of our best Allies in the middle East?
You can't do much when the media ignores and covers up Obama's stuff. I realize that isn't as glamerous as how much Palin's RNC dress cost or when her son was born but still

We should all be very frightened, an Obama win will signal the downfall of our society as we know it! Mandatory abortions for all people who make over 250k a year, the rich will be taxed to such an extent they will be forced into the welfare system they funded, the poor will become the new rich, your guns will be taken away (even your air guns), green power will eventually lead to soylent green, men of high moral character such as Rush Limbaugh will be forced off the airwaves to make room for 24/7 broadcasts of speeches made my Marx, Lenin and Castro, the military will be downsized dramatically and will be forced to march to the theme song YMCA by the Village People and the don't ask don't tell policy will be altered to Open my closet and I'll let you in and finally, you will be forced to trade your truck in for a 3 cylinder Geo Metro

I would like someone to answer one question for me. If Obama is elected, will he want to get into office for a second term? If he were to do the things many of you suggest this would not happen. People, please use some common sense.

Do you honestly believe Obama is going to cut anyones taxes? I'd be willing to bet that within a year taxes will be raised in some form on people making less than 50K.

LOL, a wise economics Professor once told me, "if your under 25 and not a democrat you don't have a heart, if you make over $100,000 a year and not a Republican, you don't have a brain", I was just curious if you fit into one of those categories.

Notice to All Employees
As of November 5, 2008, when President Obama is officially elected into
office, our company will install a few new policies which are in keeping
with his new, inspiring issues of change and fairness:
1. All salespeople will be pooling their sales commissions into a common
pool that will be divided equally between all of you. This will serve to
give those of you who are underachieving a "fair shake."
2. All hourly employees will be pooling their wages, including overtime,
into a common pool, dividing it equally amongst yourselves. This will help
those who are "too busy for overtime" to reap the rewards from those who
have more spare time and can work extra hours.
3. All top management will now be referred to as "the government." We will
not participate in this "pooling" experience because the law doesn't apply
to us.
4. The "government" will give eloquent speeches to all employees every week,
encouraging its workers to continue to work hard "for the good of all."
5. The employees will be thrilled with these new policies because it's "good
to spread the wealth." Those of you who have underachieved will finally get
an opportunity; those of you who have worked hard and had success will feel
more "patriotic."
6. The last few people who were hired should clean out their desks. Don't
feel bad though, because President Obama will give you free healthcare, free
handouts, free oil for heating your home, free food stamps, and he'll let
you stay in your home for as long as you want even if you can't pay your

[hr]
. If you appeal directly to our democratic congress, you might even
get a free flat screen TV and a coupon for free haircuts (shouldn't all
Americans be entitled to nice looking hair?) !!!

I love this....
"Don't worry about what Obama says, who he hangs out with, who his professors were. It's too absurd for anyone to really believe he will follow through."
Huh? So what are you voting for?

Are you kidding me? Common sense says to ask how is all this going to get paid for, currently your proposals ADD to our deficit forcing our children to owe more money. Common sense says balance your budget before you run out and start giving away more stuff....
Common sense? You are voting for the guy, that not once this entire campaign has said the words "balance the budget". And you speak to me of common sense? Give me a break.
If you owe money on your house and can't make the payments or are struggling to, do you run out and get another loan for another house? Do you buy a new flat screen and gaming system as well?
Common sense? This country has no common sense...especially the rockstar running for president.

One more time, you are serious?
Isn't it we HAVE to have it if we dont want be nailed to the wall with debt if we happen to break a bone or have a child.
And no 1manJury the government doesnt HAVE to provide us with anything. But it sure would be nice if they did. If they took 50 percent of my pay check in taxes and I and my family was medically FULLY
covered and schooling was free, I would be fine with that.
Im sorry if you think that government becoming part of our lives is too much I suggest you not have anything to hide. I do not see any other reason to be worried about it.

I am neither republican or democrat. I could care less about those labels. But to all you people that cling so tightly to anything republican and would love to sit and rub the thighs of limbaugh and Hannity.
Do you really think that we are going to change in to some sort of socialist society. You keep mentioning Castro as if you are serious. I am losing alot of respect for some of you. I mean it will never work with our government set up. He would have to tear down the government get rid of the congress get rid of the supreme court and surround the white house with military thugs. Now i can see you guys thinking that will happen.
But come on. Get real. Just because some of his ideas seem socialist doesnt mean he wants to turn us all into same wage no matter what profession robots. And half this garbage he is spewing wont happen. Its all just vomit to shine up his image. He will drop half that crap once in office and convieniently forget he said anything about it. Sure things will change. But dont worry Duece and all you others that have money and are tinkling down your legs from the idea that some dirty underachiever might get to eat off it. There are off shore accounts that give out HIGH intrest rates. TRUST ME HANNITY AND LIMBAUGH use them you might want to give them a ring and find out which one is best.

Really? CNN's "Revealed" series (there's one on all four) documents this well.....

Arthur cuts off his arm, the black knight denies it. Arthur cuts off his other arm, the knight denies it. Arthur cuts off his leg, the black knight keeps hopping into him, refusing to see his leg lying on the ground...
I suppose we need to follow Arthur's example. After cutting off the knight's final leg he walks away leaving the knight on the ground still shouting insults.
See....this is what I think of Bush supporters...all 25% of you...

1- probably people like Buffet and Gates who are Obama supporters and already give tons....
2- I guess only conservatives serve overseas.....
