Anymore than Herbert Hoover was Teddy Roosevelt or Carter was Clinton.
This is just Obama’s campaign mantra to get ppl to associate McCain with Bush and run against him.
Nonsense.McCain has always been his own man. Every campaign has to go with a strategy to try and win.I understand that. So that’s what Obama is doing.
Let’s not lose sight of Obama’s plan and vision for this country on its own merits.
Forget Bush.
Evaluate Obama and McCain.
Obama is going to tax.He’s playing on the tax the rich but the truth is we’re being killed by taxes-especially in the state of Pennsylvania-and he’s going to open the door to taxes on everyone.You START with the rich(whom most ppl resent)THEN work your way down.Let’s be upfront here. Any taxes in this economy are going to kill it.
Period.Economics 101 and you don’t have to be a rocket scientist to understand that.
Then Obama attacks Palin.You take out Palin-you take out McCain.But she actually has more of a record than Obama has.104 days in the Senate is NOT a record to run on.
I don’t want to go negative on Obama but you do have to look at their attacks and
see if they stand up to scrutiny. One way to do that is to make a comparison.
The other way is to see if what they’re saying is actually true.
INVESTIGATE the ads.They usually have some truth. They also usually have some falsehoods.
Quotes are taken out of context.
If you look at Obama and Biden look at their own UNFILTERED words.
Speaks for themselves.Spread the wealth,Redistribute wealth, tax cuts for 95%-their most famous mantra.What you do in a campaign is repeat over and over until it begins to sound like the truth.
Well,folks 40 some percent of Americans have no tax liability.That 95% doesn’t hold water.Let’s be honest though.Why raise taxes on anyone?Even if you tax the rich more it doesn’t change anything down here does it?
Never changed my life any.
Never made a bit of difference.Their income going down doesn’t affect me one iota.
Might make you FEEL like you’re fixing them; but it is the way to open the door to more taxes.Once you give the government that they are bound to come back to the table when they come up short.
McCain has the right plan!
I’m not sure i agree totally with his health care plan;but that’s one part.
We can revisit that.
Freeze spending.Yep.They’re spending it like drunken sailors up there.
Lower taxes.Yep.ON EVERYONE
Drill for gas here and now.Like the gas prices? How about if they stayed that low permanently because we didn’t import and we weren’t held hostage to the Middle East,Venezuela or Russia.
JOBS PPL.JOBS! Drill here,drill now.JOBS.
Let’s do McCain’s all of the above approach.Sorry but windmills across the country are not going to solve all our energy needs.
We might even see Palin convince McCain to do the windfall profit tax like she did in Alaska.Now there’s one tax we COULD handle.
And i do like our gun rights. We do have the right to self defense and the Constitution upholds that right.
Obama has his an ideological way of looking at gun rights.Besides he’s the one who thought we didn’t hear.We cling to guns and religion here because we’re bitter.
He comes from Chicago.We come Ohio,Pennsylvania and Indiana.We know what this is about.
They called us racist and redneck in Pa.
You see they think we’re backwards here.I say we have it right and they don’t.
Obama says he wants to take down the status quo.
He’s kidding right?
This IS the status quo!
