On the eve of the election an historic choice stands before us. Will we elect the first school teacher to the Vice Presidency, or the first drug dealer to the oval office? School teachers are nurturing figures. They help us learn about the world, broaden our horizons and guide us in making choices for ourselves, now, and for the future. The good ones appeal to our better angels. They teach us to respect ourselves and each other. Drug dealers are parasites. They prey on the weak. They destroy lives. Drug dealers typically have charming personalities. You have to be charming when you're selling poison. The candidate of the Democratic party was a drug dealer. He learned then what he still knows, if you are charming and slick you can sell anything to anyone. That is what Barack Obama is trying to do in the current election. Rather than unite us, as promised, he has set us against each other with lies and deception. He offers to protect the have nots from the haves on the premise that the former have been victims of the latter. That those who choose to work, pay their taxes and play by the rules are responsible for the condition of those who won't. He makes promises that anyone with even a modicum of common sense knows he can't and won't keep. When he does get caught in a lie, he tells an even bigger one to cover his tracks. According to Mr. Obama, he had no idea his former pastor preached the politics of division and hate, in spite of the fact that he sat in the pews for twenty years. Over and over he claims to have been taken out of context, even when audio and video recordings prove the opposite. The latest instance was his interview for the San Francisco Chronicle in which he states his desire to destroy the coal industry which he admits would cause the cost of energy to sky rocket. He says we must lower our standard of living because we are a greedy people without concern for the world. He shows no love for his country and sees all that is bad and nothing that is good.
He hates achievers. He wants to punish and change the nation that leads the world in individual achievement. Only in the collective lies salvation, according to him. Yet he, is an elitist, who shows nothing but disdain for those he claims to champion. He mocks the middle class, the plumbers, the coal workers, the school moms, the people who do the heavy lifting for the rest of us. The ones who sacrifice their lives willingly in the cause of freedom. At his core he believes the American people are ignorant rubes who will swallow whole anything he chooses to tell them. That is what his experience in the drug trade has taught him. Rather than poisoning individuals, he now wishes to poison a nation, if given the chance. Do not give him that chance. Recognze him for who and what he is. Stand up and reject him. Exorcise your god given right to do so, while you still have it. Vote.
