Annoying Problems

Obama or McCain?

Oct 15, 2008 Politics

What's more annoying than voting for a president when there is no one to vote for? 

Obama or McCain?

I would vote for "none of the above" if there is a such choice. Aren't we due for some "leaders" in this country? How can we put either Obama or McCain in the White House when they both act like 6th grade kids?

McCain obviously lost a great opportunity to lead us out of the recent financial mess with the his "yay" vote on the $700 billion dollar bail-out plan. Well $850 billion to be more accurate. He could've stood up and fight to review other alternatives. He could've really turn this around if he was smart enough to listen to his constituents and willing to fight against the arrogant Washington. I thought he was a Maverick..?

And I can't stand Obama's and Biden's economic plan. What are they thinking? Paying higher taxes is a patriotic act? Just hilarious. What makes them think they can take away money from the wealthy and give to the poor?

My friend owns a moving company that he worked his butt off for last 10 years. He now makes just over $300,000 with his business and I personally don't know anyone else who worked harder than him. I've helped him moving tables and desks through stairs, often hurting ourselves in the process. He still works days and nights.

I also have a friend who works at a local gym who makes about $23,000. He enjoys traveling, and enjoys working with people. He chose not to get tied up with his work too much because he wants to travel.

Now, there is a third person, unfortunately in my family, who doesn't want to work. He works here and there and makes barely $200 - $300 per week. He has a wife who works at a deli, but I don't know how much she makes. I'm sure it's around $10 - $12 an hour.

So What's my point here?

What makes Obama think he can tax more on my friend who owns the moving company and give it to either my other friend who works at the gym or my relative who doesn't want to work? Is this fair to you?

This looks more like socialism to me.

To me, Obama and McCain are just playing politics. Seems like no one wants to lead this country. We desperately need a third Political Party.

As I end this post, I want you to look at the following clip from the Howard Stern Show. I'm not a fan of his show, but this clip is funny, but sad.

At least understand your candidate's policies!
