Because he is a Socialist

I normally don't post anything political on this blog. Today I am because I want this to reach the most people possible.


This election is so very important. As a nation we are turning from our roots toward massive socialism which has never worked in the history of the world.


I am voting for the McCain/Palin ticket. Not necessarily because I agree with everything John McCain says but because I wholeheartedly disagree with everything Barack Obama says. He is a socialist to the core of his being. Most of his views fly in the face of my faith which is where I base my votes. I vote my values not my party. I am more dedicated to furthering God's plan than I am to the GOP.


*I do not agree with Obama's mission to redistribute the wealth of the rich. I think people should work, and those that do should not be stolen from for those that do not. Bill gates should get to keep his money instead of sending it to someone who chooses not to better himself.


*I believe abortion is murder in any and all situations. Barack Obama wanted to keep the horrific, barbaric practice of partial birth abortion LEGAL!


*I believe babies born as a result of a failed abortion should be given immediate life-saving medical attention. Barack Obama does not. He voted against the Born Alive Infants Protection Act. See Here.


*I believe that I have the right to keep and bear arms. Barack Obama thinks that as a law abiding citizen I should be restricted while criminals aren't going to the local gun store for their weapons. See Here.


*I am in favor of and fully support the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. There were actually weapons of mass destruction in Iraq. Saddam Hussein repeatedly used them on his own people. They were moved to Syria. See Here. And Here.


*I believe small business is the driving force in America's economy and the only thing that can turn it around. Barack Obama does not support small business issues the way he should. He was invited to the NFIB Small Business Summit as was John McCain. Only McCain attended. Thad works for the National Federation of Independent Business, an organization of small business members who vote on what is important to their business. NFIB is the most effective lobby organization in the country. They are the voice of small business. Here is a link of candidate comparison on small business issues.


*I want to drill for oil here not take OPEC handouts and accept their dolling out to us to increase our costs. Obama is against domestic drilling.


*I am absolutely opposed, to a degree I can barely express, to homosexual "marriage." I support a constitutional amendment to define marriage as between 1 man and 1 woman.


*I am a Christian. This is a Christian nation based on Judeo-Christian beliefs and values. Obama doesn't believe that. He even thinks that evolution does not conflict with the Bible.


So as you see, I am thoroughly opposed to an Obama administration. It would be the edge of a very slippery slope toward full-blown socialism which can only lead to communism. I want to live in America. The real America, rooted in the Constitution. If I wanted to live in a socialist nation I would move to Europe where there are many from which to choose. Many whose citizen's can't protect themselves, abortion is rampant and gas is $8 - $10/gallon to pay for socialized health care.

Again, socialism has never worked in the history of the world. Its not good for anyone but those in power. The average citizen gets the short end of the stick.

I hope you will take the time to research Obama's true beliefs and vote your values not just your party. Faith and values are far more important than whether you are an elephant or a donkey, red state or blue state, Republican or Democrat.
