The bottom line is if Obama is elected he will raise taxes not only on the rich/businesses, but also on the middle class because that is where most people in the US fit. I make about $50,000/year and I certainly would not like to pay more taxes like I did under the Clinton era. Obama thinks he can solve every problem by government intervention (windfall profit tax on oil companies, mortgage bailouts, welfare, universal healthcare) but the FREE MARKET ECONOMY will not tolerate it and it would ultimately crash the system. While it was nice to get a $600 check this year, you have to wonder what that does to the value of our currency if everyone got a check from the government?

This is a country of free markets and free principles. Government has a very small role in protecting it’s citizens and giving them BASIC needs, that is all. If you are dumb enough to sign a 75 page document to buy a $300,000 house when you make $40,000 a year, then you deserve to have that home taken away if you miss the payments! Under Obama, everyone will get a second, third, fourth, fifth, chance. I just wish someone could pay my mortgage for me. But unfortuntately I make my payment every month so that isn’t possible!

God Bless the USA, and I think both candidates are not right for America…

NeoconsSuck: I totally agree with everything you’ve said.

I don’t give a damn about John Hagee and Jeremiah Wright. They’re not the ones on the ballot this November. The choice is between Neocon McCain whose policy is keeping too few troops in Iraq just like the current president, and Obama, who will actually listen to the generals on the ground. That’s unlike the current president, who’s listening to Blackwater and Halliburton.

Jon Voight, in his limitless numbskullery, has already become senile. Duped by the Neocons who bankrupted the country, he’s directed his baseless geriatric frustrations against Obama, who has had nothing to do with the sad state of affairs the current administration has put America in. It’s not the far left that’s being un-American, it’s Jon Voight. Oh and **NEWSFLASH** Patriot08 - the far left didn’t get us into Iraq, the far left didn’t take the focus off Bin Laden, the far left didn’t add 3 trillion dollars to the debt, and the far left didn’t preside over the mortgage crisis.

You are right about one thing - America is the greatest nation in the history of the world. It’s a nation of liberals, libertarians, conservatives, centrists and Neocons like yourself. Difference in opinion and viewpoint IS good because it gives everyone a chance to say his/her piece and contribute to the good of the country. That’s why America is so great.

And one more thing Patriot08 - STOP CONFUSING ISRAEL’S NATIONAL SECURITY WITH AMERICA’S NATIONAL SECURITY. Israel and the USA are two completely different countries with completely different national security interests. You’d be wise to get that through your thick skull.
