I'll respectfully agree to disagree on the bulk of the post. And I'll engrave as "absurd" the line in bold. And I think you know it's absurd. Certainly worlds more absurd than comparing Obama's tax structure on the top % of earners to Reagan's.

those gents won't be there in name, but they'll have plenty of representation for their extremist views and I think you knew that I meant that.

now back at you. How can you disagree that Obama's clear aim is to distribute income of high "earners" to those who aren't earners?

How can you argue that he won't add some insanely liberal views to the SCOTUS, given the 2001 interview where he's talking about SCOTUS mandated economic justice?

You have no earthly idea who he'll appoint to the majority of the cabinet, but you know for sure that dems and press have spent a lot of time protecting Obama's circle of advisers and influencers.

that's a legitimate cause for concern and scrutiny, but not fear.

TR was younger. JFK was younger. Clinton was about the same age. In retrospect, do you think US citizens should've feared during those presidencies?

All three had extensive track records.

There is no reason to fear John McCain as president. Contrary to what some believe, a McCain presidency will not take away any Civil Rights you currently enjoy. He won't take away your job and leave you homeless. Hospitals won't turn you away if you're dying and need medical care. He isn't going to steal your food and give it to his rich buddies. He isn't going to start attacking every country who looks at us funny.

There is no reason to fear Barack Obama. Contrary to what some believe, he isn't going to turn your kids into sexually promiscuous drug users. He isn't going to set off terrorist attacks on US soil. He isn't going to burn your churches and cathedrals down and force people to build mosques and worship Allah. He isn't going to steal your food and give it to welfare queens. He isn't going to sit back and do nothing if we're threatened.

This is just a sample of what I'm referring to.

What manufactured fear are you sick of?

I fear the fact he's probably not a U.S born citizen , and he'll be running our country .

the group has nothing at all to do with Obama's pure socialistic mindset, iffy associations and lack of relevant experience, but you keep telling yourself that we're the problem.

A young teenage girl was about to finish her first year of college. She considered herself to be a very liberal Democrat but her father was a rather staunch Republican.

One day she was challenging her father on his beliefs and his opposition to taxes and welfare programs. He stopped her and asked her how she was doing in school.

She answered that she had a 4.0 GPA but it was really tough. She had to study all the time,
never had time to go out and party. She didn't have time for a boyfriend and didn't really have many college friends because of spending all her time studying.

He asked, "How is your friend Mary." She replied that Mary was barely getting by. She had a 2.0 GPA, never studied, but was very popular on campus, went to all the parties all the time. Why she often didn't show up for classes because she was hung over.

Dad then asked his daughter why she didn't go to the Dean's office and ask why she couldn't
take 1.0 off her 4.0 and give it to her friend who only had a 2.0. That way they would both have
a 3.0 GPA.

The daughter angrily fired back, "That wouldn't be fair, I worked really hard for mine and Mary
has done nothing".

The father slowly smiled and said, "Welcome to the Republican Party".

I asked my friend's little girl what she wanted to be when she grows up. She said she wanted
to be President some day. Both of her parents, liberal Democrats, were standing there, so I asked
her, 'If you were President what would be the first thing you would do?'

She replied, 'I'd give food and houses to all the homeless people.'

'Wow...what a worthy goal.' I told her, 'You don't have to wait until you're President to do that. You
can come over to my house and mow, pull weeds, and sweep my yard, and I'll pay you $50. Then
I'll take you over to the grocery store where the homeless guy hangs out, and you can give him
the $50 to use toward food and a new house.'

She thought that over for a few seconds while her Mom glared at me, then she looked me straight
in the eye and asked, 'Why doesn't the homeless guy come over and do the work, and you can
just pay him the $50?'

I said, 'Welcome to the Republican Party.'

That's what I think is absurd.

then we'll have to disagree. You've apparently seen something radically different from Obama than has been available for everyone else to see, at least as far as his personal association and political mentors go.

you don't really expect to come here breathing nothing more than liberal talking points and expect people to agree with them, do you?

I come here for the debate and the observation. a much quicker read on what certain parts of the country think than going door to door.

Nonsense, decisions have consequences.
