Spread the Wealth
The “Spread the Wealth Around” plan makes me wonder why I have worked so hard in my life to make things better for myself and my family.
From CNN:
Barack Obama:
“It’s not that I want to punish your success, I just want to make sure that everybody who is behind you, that they’ve got a chance at success too,” Obama told the plumber.
“My attitude is that if the economy’s good for folks from the bottom up, it’s going be good for everybody. If you’ve got a plumbing business, you’re gonna be better off if you’ve got a whole bunch of customers who can afford to hire you, and right now everybody’s so pinched that business is bad for everybody, and I think when you spread the wealth around, it’s good for everybody.”
So… to all my friends that make more money than I do… I’ll be looking for you to send me a check. Since you make more than me, you should help me out - and it will be good for us both.
Steven found this quote from Abraham Lincoln, and I like it much better.
Abraham Lincoln:
“That some should be rich, shows that others may become rich, and hence is just encouragement to industry and enterprise. Let not him who is houseless pull down the house of another; but let him labor diligently and build one for himself, thus by example assuring that his own shall be safe from violence when built.”

I too am looking forward to all those checks from the folks who make more money than me, which is prettymuch most of the United States of America. Whoo! If there’s ever been a time to be a housewife, it’s now! Nothing like some good old fashioned socialism.
Obama is an idiot.

I have said this for months, and I might be wrong. But I STILL don’t think Obama even has a CHANCE of winning this election. If he loses, I will laugh my fuckin’ ass off. If he does win, I will still laugh my ass off. I will laugh at every moron that put that man in office and say, “well, enjoy your life.” If you wish for something hard enough, you just might get it. And these people will see. At that point I will just sit back and say, “I told you so, but you didn’t want to listen you fuckin’ prick bitch bastards.”

Yeah, I stole your post. All of it. Aren’t you proud? Oh, and if he’s elected, you have to send me a check. We’re spreading the wealth, remember? And you make more than me! I only get to work part-time, and I get paid ONCE a month. Nice.

You should have been laughing your ass off at the LAST 8 years dumb ass! Ain’t no damn way folks want to take money out of your pocket to make them happy. I know I work my ass off 2 jobs 16-18 hours a day, and boom my job decided to take their company overseas! No one I know is asking for a handout! THEY ARE LOOKING FOR JOBS, TO WORK AND TAKE CARE OF THEIR FAMILIES. BE CAREFUL WHAT YOU WISH FOR PARTNA, YOUR TIME IS COMING.

Ok…here we go again. To the above person, who obviously is too much of a coward to leave their name, I shall respond.
First off, your comment above is actually very typical of the left wing wackos, as you so well showed yourself. You see…it’s so easy to find a liberal because they have no comments on issues of any kind. They would just rather name call. I have been known to name call myself, however, I have things to back up my thoughts and ideas.
All I can say is this…if the polls are correct, and Barack Obama wins the presidency, which I still do not believe will happen, then I have something to say….If we wake up on Nov 5th and Obama indeed wins, then Jesse Jackson will be celebrating, Reverend Wright will be celebrating, Father Pfleger will be celebrating, Lewis Farrakhan will be celebrating, Bill Ayers will be celebrating, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad will be celebrating, and Rashid Khalidi will be celebrating.
I could go on and on. But the bottom line is this. If I truly believed in every one of Obama’s views on the issues, and I mean every single one… I STILL WOULDN’T VOTE FOR THIS MAN FOR ONE REASON. BECAUSE ALL THE PEOPLE THAT I’VE LISTED ABOVE WOULD BE CELEBRATING. AND THAT WOULD BE ENOUGH FOR ME NOT TO VOTE FOR BARACK OBAMA. End of story!

Scarry - but Obama might win. I don’t get all these people who think that by taxing the @#$% out of corps and businesses they are helping the economy — As a business executive looking to build a new factory - 2008 U.S. corp tax is 40% and only 10% in Albania, where are you going to put your factory? (on the upside — at least we are not Kuwait with a corp tax of 55%) Where does Obama and team think the jobs come from?

No, you are another KOOL-AID drinker! Obama will NOT win. Obama has already gone back twice on who is was going to tax. Obviously you do not watch the news let alone read a newspaper other than your left wing radical skewed bullshit. Get a clue. Maybe you need to go back to college and take Econ 101 again! Obama will tax all of us more, and he will also go after your 401k and IRAs. It’s going to happen if he is elected. ENJOY! GO READ AND GET EDUCATED, PLEASE!!!

McCain is gonna win folks! Don’t pay any mind to those fake polls that are all over CNN and Fox News. Have YOU ever been polled?
My point exactly.
Pray to God for the wisdom to pick the right candidate, cast your vote and pray for God to lead our country to better times. We are in His hands anyway, why worry?
