Earlier I wrote I would rather Obama win.  On Thursday, Dan Jones polled me.  I chose Bob Barr.  Friday morning I searched my conscious.  That afternoon I voted for John McCain.  Living in Utah my presidential vote does affect the electoral count.  I can afford to protest vote for Barr.  But I cannot ask others to do what I am not willing to do.  I must ask all lovers of liberty to vote down Socialism.

Watching obama’s marxomercial tonight I finally realized why Obama is winning. The losers love him. They see winners success and want a piece of it. And if you believe Obama, he just the socialist to distribute your wealth.

Okay, this is incredible.  It starts getting good at 1:10 into the video and climaxes about minute 2.  This is freakin incredible.

Watch the video on YouTube: Barbara West asks Joe Biden if Barrack Obama is a Marxist

Since Joe Biden and his leftist friends don’t seem to think a woman can be president (Hillary) or vice-president (Sarah), it’s nice to see a strong woman take it to Joey.  And in typical elist form, Joe scoffs at the question and asks “Is that a real question?”  Yes, Joe, that is a strong woma0n asking you a hard question.  Barack and you are running to be president and vice-president of the United States.  It’s not as though she asked you if you really support infanticide (because we all know, liberals only want to protect the poor, that is unless they are still in the uterus).  Then it’s okay to kill them, right Barack?

BarackObama.com hosts the following page,

Barack Obama and Joe Biden: The Change We Need  |  Marxists/Socialists/Communists for Obama

Distilling the campaign to a few salient points, Charles Krauthammer succinctly makes the case for John McCain.  Granted, he’s not as succinct as Obama… “Change” or “Yes We Can”.  But then again, Charles injects substance into his communication.

Excerpt:

Who do you want answering that phone at 3 a.m.? A man who’s been cramming on these issues for the past year, who’s never had to make an executive decision affecting so much as a city, let alone the world? A foreign policy novice instinctively inclined to the flabbiest, most vaporous multilateralism (e.g., the Berlin Wall came down because of “a world that stands as one“), and who refers to the most deliberate act of war since Pearl Harbor as “the tragedy of 9/11,” a term more appropriate for a bus accident?

In the (very) mortal words of L.L. Cool J, “Don’t call it a comeback!”

I’m betting even General Colin Powell comes to his senses in the serenity of the poll booth.

Let’s not forget, Senator Obama’s political career started in the home of William Ayers, the unrepentant terrorist. A man who openly bragged, “Guilty as hell, Free as a Bird, What a Great Country.” If you really don’t have a problem, consider this…

If McCain was friends and political allies with a terrorist who bombed abortion clinics 30 years ago, would that be a problem?

The real issue here is Obama will dance with the devil to be president.

Just cruised by Drudge and saw:

“WASH TIMES Friday: Obama secretly tried to sway Iraqi government to ignore Bush deal on keeping troops in Iraq… Developing…”

When this blog thing all started I lacked focus.  Today, I lack focus, but I now understand that lack of focus to be part of my plan.  Let me explain…

I listen to a lot of talk radio.  Friends joke that I remove the FM from my car radios.  I read drudge several times a day and chase the articles of interest.  Through all that crap, i occassionally have an original thought.  Where to share it?  The wife long ago grew sick of my tirades.  Co-workers would understandably be put off by it.  So you, my good reader, are the anonymous victim of my bolt of arrows that fly like so many scuds from my keyboard.

What do I talk about on this blog?  First, what I don’t talk about… family, what i do for fun, the minutia of my day to day activities.  Now, I may have put some of that crap on here in the past, but i doubt you’ll see much of it in the future.  What moves me is politics.  Not because the candidates or their message is so inspired.  What moves me is the ideals that brought the earliest europeans to this nation.  From them, what motivated inspired men of God to risk their lives and their families lives their home, their career, in short, their all, to chase liberty.  The American Experiment.  What seperated us from so many nations/empires/worlds gone by?  The ideals set forth in the Declaration of INdependence, the US Constitution are pearls from God.  Given to man as an endowment from which to build a world where his son’s work could flourish.  Only in America could Christianity thrive and go forth to the rest of the world in righteous power.  Further, in this nation, man is free to choose liberty and eternal life, or death and destruction.  The government is limited by the constitution from choosing for us.  So don’t let anyone tell you we should empower the government to insure our home loans, give health care, student loans, daycare, tax breaks for kids, or any other social program because it is “good” or because it “helps people”.  ANy nation powerful enough to give those things in earnest will necessarily be powerful enough to take them away and more.  THough it is true, a powerful central government centered in God would have the ability to accomplish the most good, all it takes is one evil successor to create tyranny.  And power once given to a government is rarely rescinded.  Hasnt history taught the democrats yet that a strong central government only leads to death and destruction via tyranny.  How many wars have been fought to unseat a leader empowered by a nation hungry for change?

So maybe something I write motivates you to read the constitution again, or cherish your freedom just a little more.  Or maybe I just feel better for remembering it myself.

The Road to Serfdom
This is a book I am reading. The focus of the book is an economics approach to socialism. That is the book states that any political shift towards a larger central government will inevitably lead to less individual freedom and tyranny. The book is a tough read but very well thought through.
