Woodstock III, 2008 (Denver, CO)

As I watched the DNC I couldn't’t help but think about the fact that it was coming across to me as basically a rock concert on a massive level. The problem is that the main liner was hollow, had nothing of excitement for anyone other than the brainwashed followers that were swooning like a bunch of Parrot heads waiting for the second coming of Jerry Garcia. The fact is that there was very little of any substance to what Obama said in his acceptance speech on Thursday night. He did however go out on a limb and throw statistics out there that obviously were factually untrue, but sounded good to the parrot heads. He talked about unemployment being up under George Bush, when in actuality it has gone down or stayed level. At present unemployment is at 6% which is less than what it was in the Clinton era. He brought up how Government failed when it came to hurricane Katrina passing by the fact that it was actually the failure of the local government (mayor and governor of LA) that screwed it all up, not the Bush administration.

He talked about how John McCain has voted with George Bush 90% of the time. What he didn’t tell them is that so did he and Biden, because 90% of the votes in the Senate are unanimous and of little stature or controversy. It was a big pander of a self appointed Messiah to his people that he was going to take all he could from the people who have worked hard and earned it, and give it back to them while they sit on their couches watching Oprah on their LCD televisions and working for nothing. He talked about the plants that have closed and of course blamed it on corporate taxation, when apparently he thinks everyone forgot that he wants to raise the corporate taxes even more! I for one would like to see a mandate that everyone who professes to want to be president should have a working knowledge of economics in a free enterprise, capitalistic society! He talks about a tax code that benefits the common working man, then spouts overtaxing big business. He still can’t see the obvious beyond his own bloated ego. Big business does not pay taxes! If you tax them more, they just raise the price of their product or service to make up the difference. So once again Obama, pay attention here; the tax is on the consumer!! Then he spouted off about eliminating our dependence on foreign oil in 10 years, which is a total flip flop from what he said previously when he stated that he was going to flat eliminate our NEED for oil period within 10 years. And he is now on the side of pursuing natural gas and nuclear power all of a sudden!

Then he spouts making cars more affordable, yet he is promoting mandating that the car companies work on electric and alternative fuel versions, while saying that he is going to tax big business…not sure how that will balance out!! Not only that but he obviously, and to no ones surprise, is talking about hiring new teachers and paying them more to teach (indoctrinate) our children. But how can we do that when the unions have a tenure system that doesn’t allow new teachers to make more than they do? Then he talked about family responsibility, when he clearly believes that abortion is ok. And of course he spouted off about how he did not support the war just days after 9/11 when he was not even in the damn Senate at the time and had no vote…idiot!! He wants to pull out of Iraq now, lose the war, to be able to appease the left and their desire to lose the war; so they can say…"See, I told you so!!" Then he said he would rebuild our military, when almost in the same breath he said he would de-fund our missile defense system because it was frivolous spending! I am not sure Obama has a single clue on what defending our country takes. Then he makes a comment about getting AK-47’s out of the hands of criminals so that citizens won’t need to have guns to protect themselves…unbelievable!!

Then he talks about McCain saying that the middle class was anyone under 5 million a year income. Honestly, is this man fit to be President of the United States? I think not!! Because McCain never said that and never even eluded to it in the least, just another leftist/Marxist spin on the truth. The reason that most of this rhetoric will sway a lot of independent voters is because they are a confused voting block. They, for the most part, are people who do not take the time to look up information on candidates and what the facts really are. They listen to what the drive-by media says and that is a dangerous thing!

As I sit here in Canada, on vacation and watch the bald eagles fly around in complete and total freedom, I can’t help but think that what we have back in the US is but a mere shadow of what we used to be. The freedoms we have are being taken from us one day at a time and if we do not stand up as a society and speak our minds and feelings at the voting booths, we are doomed to the fate that most apathetic society’s experience. I for one hope that we can overcome this onslaught of Liberalism/Marxism and correct what is possibly the most destructive plan ever to be executed on this great nation, and sadly it is from within it’s own governmental process! GOD BLESS AMERICA!!
