I wish I could vote for Forest Gump

The liberal blogs and columns today and over the weekend are all full of heartache and whining about McCain’s campaign of “character assassination” ads against Obama, all the while spewing their own vile verbal abuse toward McCain. Whatever; let them fight. The thing of it is, Obama’s character needs to be assassinated. Before you get your panties in a bunch, I said his character, not him.
To be honest, I’m not real excited about the prospect of President McCain. But I’m absolutely terrified of the idea of President Obama. I wish I could vote for Forest Gump.
Obama is a man who wants to build an already bursting at the seams government into something even bigger, more controlling and more invasive. He wants to be at the helm of a machine that will give, give, and give some more to those who have not and will not lift a finger to earn. And the only way he can do all that giving is by taking away from those of us who do earn. He wants to tell you which doctor you can go to and what kind of car you can drive. You think your doctors and cars are expensive now?
Democrats, liberals, left wingers, whatever you want to call these useful idiots, are all yapping about the Republican’s decimation of the Constitution with the wire tapping and habeas corpus and whatnot. Will someone please explain to me which part of the Constitution dictates the federal government’s authority to establish universal healthcare? They’re upset that someone listened to a bunch of phone calls without asking permission. How many American lives did that cost? Zero. How many American lives will it cost when ‘free’ healthcare for everyone has driven the cost of that care beyond tolerable limits? When emergency rooms are so packed with non-earning illegal immigrants that earning Americans can’t get in?
How many American lives does it cost to have an enemy combatant, a man who put bullets and bombs downrange to kill Americans, stand a military tribunal and be sentenced to life behind bars, or, preferably, execution? Zero. How many American lives will it cost when that same man is afforded a ‘fair’ trial, a right guaranteed to American citizens, and acquitted on some BS technicality? When he is allowed to return to the battlefield to send more bullets and bombs downrange?
These are things that are already here, and an Obama administration will only bring more. He will take money away from each and every one of us in order to feed his nanny state. Even worse, he will cost American lives.
The man who has preached ‘unity’ and ‘working across the aisle’ recently asked supporters to throw their money toward senate reelections. “We must have a deadlock-proof Democratic majority,” he said. He will not work ‘across the aisle’ or attempt any sort of ‘unity.’ He will fight very hard for a decisive liberal majority that will allow him to move this country further toward socialism. Don’t be fooled by his silver tongue. Look at his actions. He has already hurt America, and plans to hurt us more.
