Let me start by telling you, I cried on Tuesday the 4th day of November 2008 at approximately 11pm Eastern time. I am a man who volunteered to defend my country BOTH of the last 2 times we went to war. As of Tuesday the 4th day of November 2008 at approximately 11pm Eastern time this country is threatened by the one person responsible for her wellbeing. We have elected a man to lead her and her people that would have been otherwise denied access to secret documents in our government. Obama is unable to recieve a security clearance because of past associations and questionable company kept over the years, yet our people saw fit to give him a free pass, regardless of his criminal tendencies.
Well, here we are. I may never understand how we got here but now there are bigger problems.
We have elected a leader who has openly admitted that he has goals that are geared towards destroying the very fabric of the USA. He even openly said in a radio interview that the Constitution of the United States was a "constraint" on the members of the Warren court. He stated that they did not "break free" of these constraints in order to legislate in order to impliment "redistribution of wealth" principals. His OWN WORDS state that he believes that the Constitution of the United States is hindering our country from moving in a socialist direction. This is not my opinion, this is FACT. Obama said it!!
Let's have a little review. The responsibility of the Supreme Court - To interpret the laws put in place by the constitution and those in the legislature for the purpose of trials and setencing. NOT TO LEGISLATE NEW BILLS!!!!!!
Obama shows that he has contempt for the United States and the principals it stands for by making these statements. Our country is filled with veterans who have sacrificed their lives in many ways to support and defend this wonderful document that Obama believes is a constraint on our society. Man how I would love to hear what our founding fathers would have to say to him about this, not to mention every past and present service member who has sworn to defend and uphold the constitution at any cost.
I have stated in other blogs, the case for him being a marxist. What I do not understand at this point is how so many people in our country completely ignore FACTS. So many examples of Obama incriminating himself on RECORD, whether it be video or audio. What drug is the 52% of the population that voted for Obama taking that made them able to ignore the FACTS ON VIDEO AND AUDIO? I want some, NO, I need some so I can make it through the next 4 years. I will pray for our country daily. Praying that the right decisions are being made in washington and praying that Obama does not push things to a point that causes Americans to demonstrate the reasons behind the right to bear arms. May we not have to defend ourselves on our own soil, against our own government, ever again. I love my country, I fear what evil men such as Obama will do to her.

Why isn't character an issue?
This presidential election has been littered with, if not tainted by the issues regarding the character of the men involved. I want to start with the easy one, John McCain.
Senator McCain has been accused of taking action based on the business interests of his father-in-law. These accusations are baseless attempts to discredit his character. understanding that courting and marrying a woman has some level of involvement with her family is common sense and is a ridiculous basis for accusation of favoring them with policy.
Senator McCain has been accused of participating in corrupt practices involving the savings and loan scandal in the eighties. After extensive investigation by the Senate Ethics Committee he was found to be free of wrong doing. This is a man who has faithfully served our country in countless ways for nearly his entire life.
Sarah Palin has been the victim of many malicious attacks. She has been accused of accepting money for the "Bridge to nowhere" and using it for other purposes in her state. The truth is she did exactly this. HOWEVER, only after the budget for the bridge to nowhere was nearly doubled and she was left with the difficult task of making the correct decision that $400 million was excessive to spend to give 50 residents access to an airport, coupled with the federal governments decision at that time to reallocate those same funds as highway funding. Since when is it wrong to realize upon further investigation of a project that an amount to be spent for something is excessive and decide to nix it and use the money the way the feds tell you to? There are barely 50 people living on the island that it was to give airport access to. Even most liberals would have a hard time justifying an expenditure of that magnitude for 50 residents.
Next is my favorite. Sarah Palin is accused of "using state money to fly her family". The elite media are the kings of omission. The fact is Sarah Palin did use state money to fly her family. It is not uncommon for the first family to fly with the governer on trips. What is omitted from these reports is that she charged commercial tickets to the state for her family because she sold the private jet in the interest of saving the Alaskans' money and the result was a $400,000 savings for the state. So, her behavior was no different than any other governer except that she flew commercial rather than squandering tax money on a private jet.
I won't even dignify the wardrobe issue with a response.
Ok, now the fun part, Barack Obama... I am writing here in the interest of being thorough and factual. It is difficult, given that I am writing this in my spare time, to document everything. I will do my best to be inclusive of the relevant and necesary facts.
I believe most voters are misunderstanding the point behind the questions raised about Obama's associations. Associations with Ayers are not questioned because anyone believes Obama is a domestic terrorist. Rather this is a recognition of the kind of dangerous person he has kept company with.
Associations with Rezko have been questioned not because anyone believes Obama has shaken down or extorted businesses for political contributions, but because this is the record of Antoin Rezko. Obama's friend, neighbor and business associate.
Associations with the Trinity United Church of Christ and it's now former pastor, Jeremiah Wright have not been questioned because there is any evidence that Obama is racist or a hate monger. They are raised because that is the kind of person he has chosen as his spiritual leader and advisor in what he calls his christian faith. I have listened to sermons of the reverend and, not that I am qualified in any theological sense, but they don't sound anything like the christianity I was raised on.
All these associations do not speak necesarily to who Obama is or what he believes, although that is left for speculation. But these do raise the question as to his judgement in choosing to surround himself with racist, hateful, criminal, mafia-like, terrorist types. My momma always told me, "Lie down with dogs, rise up with fleas." Senator Obama needs to clean up, we don't need him dragging those kinds of fleas onto the Oval office rug.
One of the primary qualities necessary for a leader is good judgement. Given these associations, we have to wonder what kind of poor judgement calls Obama might make as our commander in chief. Please remember, the global community will not be as forgiving as the American media.
Now, how truthful has Obama been? In his book, he talks about how he is the son of a goat herder. Truth is his grandfather, Hussein Obama, was a wealthy farmer and his father was a child of privilidge. He has claimed that his name is of African descent, truth is his name is Arabic-Muslim. Barack, (Baracka as his grandfather intended for his father), actually means "blessed" in Arabic. It is a Koranic name.
Why is Obama lying about his heritage? Where is the rest of his family? He has misrepresented his parents and seemingly deleted his remaining family from his past. What is he trying to hide? the answer to this question may not be uncovered in time to affect the election but these are important things that the American people deserve to know.
Not to be overlooked, integrity is another important attribute required of good leaders. Senator Obama has done little to display that he has any.
I plead with all of you, vote with your head in this election. I know Barack Obama is likeable, but that will only get him elected, not make him the right man for the job. This is the election for President of the United States, not Mr. Congeniality.

answers for the economy...
We are in a severe recession, not unlike the beginnings of the Great Depression. Read your history, a similar plan to obama's was called "The New Deal". Basically saying no matter how hard or how LITTLE you work, the government wants to make sure you have a share of the proverbial pie, earned or not. Instead of pulling us out of our recession, the plan to artificially suppliment the natural economic cycles actually drove us from our recession deeper into THE GREAT DEPRESSION. I understand that many of the policies of the New Deal were innovative and overdue for the time. We still have many of them in force today. However, the redistribution of money collected by the government to lower income citizens as described in many Keynesian ideals is not the right answer. Economic principals of a capitalist society are sound and do point to downturns as well as prosperity. That is the nature of an economy. We don’t need bigger government, we need to let the economy right itself. These ideals of "SPREADING THE WEALTH" and giving tax rebates to poor people who don’t even pay taxes, are dangerously within the realm of socialism, defined by http://dictionary.reference.com as: a theory or system of social organization that advocates the vesting of the ownership and control of the means of production and distribution, of capital, land, etc., in the community as a whole, as well as:the stage following capitalism in the transition of a society to communism, characterized by the imperfect implementation of collectivist principles. THIS IS NOT WHAT AMERICA STANDS FOR, NOR SHOULD ITS CITIZENS OR LEADERS. We are truly on the brink of a new american revolution, while I prayerfully hope that it does not lead to a conflict of violence, these ideals will inevitably lead to conflict in our country and as our country weakens, conflict globally. Please think long and hard, about what is RIGHT! Do not take this vote lightly, the future of our country depends on it.
