Just by looking at the issues and what Barack H. Obama wants to do and you know that it will be a disaster for America. However, it is also very important to look at one’s character when voting for the next President of the United States.
Character tells you what kind of person you are dealing with. Knowing about one’s background and character is critical, especially when you do not know much about someone. Since Obama has only been in the Senate for 143 working days and he pretty much appeared out of nowhere, it is crucial that we know his background and character, because it is really all we have to go by.
Sarah Palin mentioned Obama’s ties to Ayers, the radical self-admitted domestic terrorist today. Ayers and his fellow Weathermen have taken credit for bombing 12 buildings and he wish he did more. I am so glad that Palin has mentioned this terrible fact.
More people need to know that this is a serious matter. Obama is more than just an acquaintance with Ayers. Ayers is Obama’s friend and maybe even a mentor, as I have mentioned in previous posts here and here. And here is another website that frequently updates as new evidence is found on Barack Obama and Ayers. Friends can and do affect one’s character and it also tells us about one‘s judgment.
Character is what was yesterday and will be tomorrow.
Sarah Palin did awesome tonight! She is so easy-going and confidant. I think she really connects to the American people. The way she speaks is very different than other politicians, she is a plain straight talker. Sarah Palin is very intelligent, but the way she speaks really speaks to everybody and is authentic.
I thought Sarah Palin did good by mentioning that the Obama ticket keeps going back to the past whenever they trash the Bush administration and how they are not Bush. Well McCain and Palin are not Bush either, they are different people. And the Obama ticket is so negative, all they do is focus on the past and claim they will change America for the better.
John Biden made some serious factual misrepresentations in the debate about John McCain. For example, Obama did say he would sit down with the President of Iran without preconditions. McCain did not vote the same way on the budget resolution, McCain voted no for tax increases and Obama voted yes. John McCain never voted on tax increases on those making over $42,000. Biden said we are spending as much as 3 weeks in Iraq as we have in 7 years in Afghanistan, not true. Obama voted No on funding troops and McCain voted Yes. Biden said article one in the constitution refers to the executive branch, but really if refers to the legislative branch. McCain did not oppose Clinton on Bosnia. There were several other unarguable facts that Biden threw out that were not true.
John Biden was on the attack often and appeared kind of mean like always.
Sarah Palin appeared very happy and she won the Vice Presidential Debate!
Sarah Palin will be an excellent jump for women if she is elected to be the first woman Vice President of the United States. Yet, so many liberal feminist do not think it is great for women, because Sarah Palin is a Republican. And they try to tear her down, by stating that she should stay home and raise the children, which also insults Sarah’s husband, implying that he is not a good stay at home Dad. I thought all feminists were for all women, apparently not. Sarah Palin is the true definition of feminism. She is a Mom who is also a successful working women and she is breaking a huge glass ceiling.
Also the Liberal biased media consistently goes after Sarah Palin, trying to find anything against her, personal life included. They are all scared of losing to Sarah Palin. She will bring real reform to Washington and is more ready to lead than the Presidential candidate, Barack H. Obama.
The rumors flying around are not true and misleading too. It just goes to show that we all must thoroughly do our own research. Check out what I found about Palin on FactCheck.org:
Palin did not cut funding for special needs education in Alaska by 62 percent. She didn’t cut it at all. In fact, she increased funding and signed a bill that will triple per-pupil funding over three years for special needs students with high-cost requirements.
She did not demand that books be banned from the Wasilla library. Some of the books on a widely circulated list were not even in print at the time. The librarian has said Palin asked a “What if?” question, but the librarian continued in her job through most of Palin’s first term.
She was never a member of the Alaskan Independence Party, a group that wants Alaskans to vote on whether they wish to secede from the United States. She’s been registered as a Republican since May 1982.
Palin never endorsed or supported Pat Buchanan for president. She once wore a Buchanan button as a “courtesy” when he visited Wasilla, but shortly afterward she was appointed to co-chair of the campaign of Steve Forbes in the state.
Palin has not pushed for teaching creationism in Alaska’s schools. She has said that students should be allowed to “debate both sides” of the evolution question, but she also said creationism “doesn’t have to be part of the curriculum.”
Governor Palin gave a phenomenal speech tonight at the National Republican Convention. She spoke very well and is very strong while still being down to earth and having great family values. She had some pretty funny lines too. I like when she said that being a Mayor is kind of like being a community organizer, except you have responsibilities. Sarah Palin also said, “How are you going to be better off if our opponent adds a massive tax burden to the American economy? Here’s how I look at the choice Americans face in this election. In politics, there are some candidates who use change to promote their careers. And then there are those, like John McCain, who use their careers to promote change”(gopconvention2008).
And I really like it when she talked about Harry Reid and that Harry Reid said he, “Can’t stand John McCain.” Then Palin said what Reid was getting at, is the fact that he can’t stand up to John McCain. Wow, she is really putting Reid in his place. Sarah Palin is a reformer and will shake up Washington no matter what party.
Mayor Rudy Giuliani had some pretty funny lines too. I loved it when he said that Obama has voted present for about 130 times. In an executive position as President you have to vote yes or no, no more indecision and changing your mind. You initial vote counts. You are accountable and responsible for the decisions. (gopconvention2008)
Sarah Palin also showed her knowledge when it comes to American families and the economy. She knows first hand about the gas and oil industry. She knows that we have to do something now to help the oil issue. We have to do something now, while we wait for alternative energy.
John McCain and Sarah Palin are the ticket to vote for this November. They will provide real change that will not hurt American families. And they will protect America, while they do not go looking for fights, they both certainly are not afraid of one!
Remember 9/11! God Bless our soldiers!
Vote McCain/Palin 08!
I just watched the Republican National Convention and enjoyed listening to President Bush speak about the man America needs for the next President, John McCain. The RNC had a tribute to Ronal Reagan. It is just amazing how Reagan is very similar to McCain. Reagan was against high taxes, communism, and big government. McCain believes in these principals as well. I think McCain is becoming more and more conservative, just like Reagan did.
I really liked when Fred Thompson said, that Obama is not going to tax you, only businesses. So if you don’t buy anything from a business or get a paycheck from a business then you will not be affected. If you do not want to be affected by many high taxes then vote for John McCain. Fred Thompson also said that being a prisoner of war and tortured terribly for years is not a requirement to be the President, but it does show character. It shows McCain’s deep love for America, his strength, honor, duty, wisdom, and courage. God bless him. (Fred Thompson speech)
Joe Lieberman said we should not need a hurricane to bring Democrats and Republicans together. Other nations see us fighting each other instead of standing together as Americans! Joe Lieberman is a Democrat and he knows that the country matters more than the party and that America must be safe and prosper. I also love that Joe Lieberman gave a warning to not be fooled by the false advertisements about John McCain. John McCain and Sarah Palin truly are the reform and change ticket.(Joe Lieberman speech)
I very happy right now and have great hope that McCain/Palin will be elected and keep America safe and remain the greatest nation!
Governor Palin taxed the oil companies in Alaska because she was fixing the system. The oil companies were bribing the administration before her to keep the taxes low. Palin raised the taxes to get it back to normal and gave some of that stolen money back to Alaskans. That is where the $1,200 check came from (nytimes.com). Obama can only say that he wants to tax oil companies, not that he already has the experience.
In my post yesterday, I said it was a bummer that she taxed the oil companies, but it seems to be that there was a justified cause for this. Governor Sarah Palin is for lower taxes overall. And again as I said in yesterday’s post she thinks, “…a national windfall profits tax on oil companies will hinder domestic energy production”(Associated Press).
Not only was she not afraid to go after people in her own party, but she does have great experience in running things. Governor Palin has run and managed the state of Alaska and she is also a business women. I don’t know how running a state does not give her great experience with the economy.
As governor she controls the government’s growth, keeps the state balanced and the savings in tact all under a certain budget. “From the moment Governor Palin took office, she directed all state agencies to look for efficiencies and savings. Through a collective effort, the Governor was able to reduce general fund spending in the operating budget alone by over $124 million”(ontheissues).
Check out what Steve Forbes thinks of the different economic strategies between McCain/Palin and Obama/Biden:
I am just surprised that so many liberals are saying Sarah Palin is not experienced enough, when Barack Obama who is running for President is not experienced enough.
The energy situation is one of the most important issues this election. John McCain chose one of the best for the job when it comes to energy. Choosing the Vice President is the first move as a President and it really tells us the judgment of the next President of the United States.
Sarah Palin is a reformer and “Governor Palin’s credentials as an agent of reform exceed Barack Obama’s. Mr. Obama rose through the Chicago Democratic machine without a peep of push-back. Alaska’s politics are deeply inbred and backed by energy-industry money. Mr. Obama slid past the kind of forces that Mrs. Palin took head on”(JohnMcCain.com).
Governor Sarah Palin is the head of the Alaska Oil and Gas Conservation Commission. She is for offshore drilling off the Atlantic and Pacific coasts and the Artic National Wildlife Refuge, but she is also for imposing new taxes on the oil companies. And you all know how I am against taxes, but you would think that this might make some liberals happy. Fortunately, Palin did say, “…a national windfall profits tax on oil companies will hinder domestic energy production”(Associated Press ).
Palin has also pushed, “…for more competition for the construction of a $26 billion pipeline to bring natural gas from the North Slope to the lower 48 states by favoring the TransCanada pipeline project, backed by independent companies over one proposed by BP and ConocoPhillips. She has tangled with Exxon Mobil and other oil companies over their reluctance to develop gas fields on state land” (Associated Press).
And of course Sarah Palin along with McCain are strongly for finding new alternative energy. She and McCain are just for helping the American hard working families well we wait decades for every single person to be able to afford a new alternative energy automobile.
ay. Ayers and his fellow Weathermen have taken credit for bombing 12 buildings and he wish he did more. I am so glad that Palin has mentioned this terrible fact.
