Just the facts, Please?

Alright, it is no secret that I am rather frightened about Obamamania. Frightened? Why yes! It is frightening when folks in this great land of freedom begin to follow a candidate based solely on flowery words or the color of his skin. So many are choosing to look at the superficial parts of his candidacy and very few supporters care about what he really stands for. As I have said before, what he stands for is not a good thing for this country. He would usher in a new era of spending of which we have never seen it’s equal. Those of us who show enterprise and work production would be penalized with higher taxes while those who are not would be rewarded with more “social programs”. If you think this economy is bad, wait for the Obama recession with the inflation and unemployment rates it would bring. He would turn us so far to the left we would scarcely return.

On top of that I have shared with many my concern about his largely unproven track record. His record as a state Senator in Illinois shows a great propensity to spend. His record in the U.S. Senate? Well, there isn’t much of one. He voted very little because he started to campaign for President one year into his term. What a great service to the people who elected him. What votes he has shown up for have proven him a blatant socialist. At a later time I also want to expand on Mr. Obama’s friends and aquaintences. What they and his wife have to say is the key to understanding what this man actually believes. Don’t expect to hear any clarity from his mouth.

So, I ask supporters three questions constantly:

1 - Name one great accomplishment of Barack Hussein Obama in his life?

2 – Name one piece of Legislation that Mr. Obama has authored in his term in the U.S. Senate?

3 – What is one thing Mr. Obama will do to better this country if he is elected? (Or, name one thing of substance in his speeches)

Sadly, not one supporter chooses to answer.

Sadly, they DO NOT know the answers.

So then today, I found a columnist that is so much better of a writer than I that states it the way I have tried (unsuccessfully) to write it. Please read this article from Thomas Sowell here. Please, if anyone wants to disagree with me or Thomas or answer the questions, please comment now.

That’s my 2.5 cents, so there!
