&amp;nbsp;
Obama&#039;s foreign policy is dangerously naive -- While politicians with favorable views of W have been elected in Germany, Italy, France, and elsewhere... Obama is giving cause to make our allies even more nervous. The Washington Post reported that &amp;quot;European officials are increasingly concerned that Obama&#039;s campaign pledge to begin direct talks with Iran on its nuclear program without preconditions could potentially rupture U.S. relations with key European allies.&amp;quot; Obama would give credibility/reward to ther world&#039;s chief sponsor of terrorism. Such a meeting would undermine Iranian dissidents... and lower the prestige of the office of POTUS.
Obama&#039;s Iraq policy will put a huge source of oil in the hands of terrorists -- Barack says he will remove two combat brigades every month, and have all our combat brigades out of Iraq within 16 months... regardless of what military leaders on the ground in Iraq argue. When Bush announced the Surge strategy in 2007, Obama opposed it saying, &amp;quot;The President&#039;s strategy will not work.&amp;quot; Beyond these miscalculations and poor judgments, Obama has been INCONSISTENT on Iraq... saying one thing to Democrat leaders in D.C. and another to the press.
Obama&#039;s policy toward Israel is inconsistent and confused -- Last month, Obama told an audience at the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, &amp;quot;Jerusalem will remain the capital of Israel, and it must remain undivided. the next day, he backtracked, stating &amp;quot;Obviously, it is going to be up to the parties to negotiate and range of these issues... and Jerusalem will be part of the negotiations.&amp;quot; These quick switches of policy stem from inexperience (at best) and general tone-deafness on the meaning of words and policy(at worst) in the Mideast. Given Obama&#039;s long-standing ties to Palestinian activities in the U.S., one has good cause to wonder.
Obama&#039;s short-term flip-flops on NAFTA and other issues are dangerous -- Obama&#039;s Mideast policy may have been the quickest turnaround, but it is not the only one. During the primary, the campaign sent out fliers explaining Obama&#039;s opposition to NAFTA... but in the last month, Obama has backtracked on NAFTA saying, &amp;quot;We need to figure out how we can make this work for all people.&amp;quot; As a primary candidate, he supported public financing of presidential campaigns. In February 2008, he said he would aggressively pursue spending limits. Then last month, Obama threw public financing under the bus.
Obama&#039;s judgment about personal and professional affiliations is dangerous -- In March 2008, Obama was defending Jeremiah Wright... then after several clips of sermons by his longtime mentor surfaced on the Internet, Obama finally denounced Wright in public. Once Jeremiah Wright became a political liability, Obama dumped him. What about Bill Ayers?? Ayers participated in the bombings of NYC Police Headquarters in 1970, the Capitol building in 1971, the Pentagon in 1972. Make no mistake: Obama and Ayers relationship goes back to the grassroots in Chicago.
Obama would use the failed 1990s strategy against terrorism as opposed to the post-9/11 strategy -- Obama supported the Supreme Court decision to grant habeas corpus rights to terrorists, including Osama bin Laden. In an interview last month, Obama said &amp;quot;In the first attack against the World Trade Center, we were able to arrest those responsible, put them on trial...&amp;quot; Ask the legal officials during the 1990s how cowed terrorists were by our continued indictments. Witness the attack on the USS Cole or September 11... and even more specifically, why there have been no successful attacks against American civilian interests abroad since 2004.
Obama&#039;s economic policies are dangerous to the American economy -- In a recent Wall Street Journal article, Kimberly Strassel reported &amp;quot;Obama is hawking a tax policy that would take the nation back to the effective marginal tax rates of the Carter days. He wants to further tax income, payroll, capital gains, dividends, and death. His philosophy is pure redistribution.&amp;quot; In effect, Obama&#039;s tax plans will mean the death of small businesses across the United States... and small businesses have created the most new jobs in recent decades. Unemployment will skyrocket!!
Obama opposes any kind of drilling to reduce oil and gas prices -- Obama is not just against offshore drilling. He is against any drilling. Period. His solution to our energy crisis is additional tax burdens on oil company profits... taxes we can only imagine will be passed on to the consumer, thus causing an even more expensive trip to the gas station. As the New York Slimes recently detailed, ethanol subsidies are a major plank in Obama&#039;s view of energy independence and national security. Really!!?? Ethanol subsidies??!! Some of these subsidies will end up in the hands of the same oil companies he says should be subjected to a windfall profits tax.
Obama is LEFT of Hillary Clinton and NARAL on the issue of life -- As an Illinois Senator, Obama voted against the Induced Infant Liability Act, a law that would have protected babies if they survived an attempted abortion and were delivered alive. When a similar bill was proposed in the U.S. Senate, it passed unanimously.
Obama is actually the MOST Liberal member of the U.S. Senate -- In 2007, Obama&#039;s composite Liberal score of 95.5 was the highest in the Senate. Rounding out the top five most Liberal Senators last year were Whitehouse (D-RI), Biden (D-Del), Sander (D-Ver), and Menendez (D-NJ). Who would such a Liberal Leftist appoint to the Supreme Court??

                <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;2&quot;&gt; Three men -- A Canadian farmer, Osama Bin Laden and an &lt;br /&gt;
American&amp;nbsp; are all working together one day. &lt;br /&gt;
They come across a lantern and a Genie pops out of it. &lt;br /&gt;
&#039;I will give each of you one wish, which is three wishes in total&#039;,&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;
says the Genie. &lt;br /&gt;
The Canadian says, &#039;I am a farmer and my son will also farm.&amp;nbsp; I want the land to be forever fertile in Canada &#039; &lt;br /&gt;
POOF!&amp;nbsp; With the blink of the Genie&#039;s eye, the land in Canada was forever fertile for farming. &lt;br /&gt;
Osama was amazed, so he said, &#039;I want a wall around Afghanistan , Palestine , Iraq and Iran so that no infidels, Americans or Canadians can come into our preciou s land.&#039; &lt;br /&gt;
POOF!&amp;nbsp; Again, with the blink of the Genie&#039;s eye, there was a huge wall around those countries. &lt;br /&gt;
The American says, &#039;I am very curious. &lt;br /&gt;
Please tell me more about this wall.&#039; &lt;br /&gt;
The Genie explains, &#039;Well, it&#039;s about 5,000 feet high, 5oo feet thick and completely surrounds the country.&amp;nbsp; Nothing can get in or out;&amp;nbsp; it&#039;s virtually impenetrable.&#039; &lt;br /&gt;
The American sits down on his Harley, cracks a beer, lites a cigar, smiles and says, &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp;&#039;Fill it with water.&#039; &lt;br /&gt;

                <description>&lt;p&gt;No matter who is elected, it will change America for the better. If not, we&#039;re facing the End of Days. LOL&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;...and just who are these European leaders who are warming up to Bush?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;...and Bush&#039;s Iraq strategy is starting to look less like McCains and more like Obamas.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;.....and, whatever happened to all the sludge that Limbaugh (dedicated a whole show on dissing McCain) Hannity (who threw the most darts at him) Ingraham (who thinks McCain is just right of Ted Kennedy) Hewitt (who called McCain a terrible conservative), and Coulter (who said she would vote for Hillary before McCain), were throwing around.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;That was one thing I gave McCain credit for, he didn&#039;t cowtow to the morons on conservative radio.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

                <description>&lt;p&gt;Limbaugh et al must&#039;ve gotten the memo from the GOP that McCain&#039;s their candidate. As far as the religious nutjobs...like the guy who just shot up that Southern church &#039;cause it&#039;s too librul and he&#039;s out of work...brings to mind a comment that was criticized somet time ago about &amp;quot;clinging to religion and guns&amp;quot; during bad economic times.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Though I&#039;m sure Wayfarer/sojourner/buffoo would disagree....&amp;quot;he&#039;s not really a Christian,&amp;quot; they&#039;ll say. No, but he&#039;s a good shot.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
