I watched the debate last evening. I am not here to say who won and who lost. I am going to vote McCain so no need for me to go into why I will vote for him.
I have heard Obama speak and I keep asking myself - "Why will people vote for him when if you look undernearth the words there is nothing of substance?" Also, I keep asking myself - "Cannot people tell that Obama is a socialist and leans toward communism?" If you listen closely, you will hear how Obama wants to take from the "rich" and give to the poor. Senator Biden said just a week or so ago - "We will TAKE from the rich and spread the money around......" or something to that affect. This is socialism in its basic form. Cannot people see that? Listen for terms like "universal" "my program will include ALL people" "only the top 5 percent will get their taxes increased" "lower taxes on the middle class and the poor". These all signal socialism....bringing the rich down by taking and bringing the poor up by giving. This will decrease the gap between the rich and poor but this, in the extreme, leads to communism. Under the Obama plan, it is just socialism.
Obama does not believe in the capitalistic foundation of this country. He wants more taxes so that he can fund all his social programs. Again, look at the money he wants for social programs - this is soicalism. Look at how he wants government to be involved in all aspects of our lives...even having the government pick our doctors. Again, this is socialism. Once you get underneath the words, you see that his basic philosophy, like most liberals, is socialism. The far left borders on communism. I fear for the future of our country under Obama who really is a socialist and who really does not like his country. I often ask myself - "Why does Obama and his wife hate the very country that has allowed him to ascend to the U.S. Senate?" He says he loves this country. I don't believe that he does. I believes that he loves this country under his policies and subject to his control. That is the country he loves - not the country as it was founded or has come to be.
Be careful of the change Obama wants to make for undernearth all the words there is no substance - but only the basis of socialism.
