Why I voted for Barack Obama

Let's be honest in that the $1800 a year a family might be getting from Obama (via the work of a someone who's earned money..) is not life changing money. It might enable the family to go buy something they really need like 10 new Xbox games and a 65 inch flat screen. Good for them. It's funny because I've heard some pretty hilarious quotes from Obama supporters. One of my favorites has been "with Barack Obama I can start living." WTF does that mean? It must suck to depend on the government to start living.

And that was an incredibly insightful 4 sentences on the supreme court...scholar.

And for those interested in Obama and judicial appointments..the following article from the Wall Street Journal on Tuesday might be of some interest. Pretty scary given the potential for a democratic supermajority in the senate. Far left control in all 3 branches of government is scary.

Obama's "Redistribution" Constitution - by Steven Calabresi

One of the great unappreciated stories of the past eight years is how thoroughly Senate Democrats thwarted efforts by President Bush to appoint judges to the lower federal courts.

Consider the most important lower federal court in the country: the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit. In his two terms as president, Ronald Reagan appointed eight judges, an average of one a year, to this court. They included Robert Bork, Antonin Scalia, Kenneth Starr, Larry Silberman, Stephen Williams, James Buckley, Douglas Ginsburg and David Sentelle. In his two terms, George W. Bush was able to name only four: John Roberts, Janice Rogers Brown, Thomas Griffith and Brett Kavanaugh.
Although two seats on this court are vacant, Bush nominee Peter Keisler has been denied even a committee vote for two years. If Barack Obama wins the presidency, he will almost certainly fill those two vacant seats, the seats of two older Clinton appointees who will retire, and most likely the seats of four older Reagan and George H.W. Bush appointees who may retire as well.

The net result is that the legal left will once again have a majority on the nation's most important regulatory court of appeals.

The balance will shift as well on almost all of the 12 other federal appeals courts. Nine of the 13 will probably swing to the left if Mr. Obama is elected (not counting the Ninth Circuit, which the left solidly controls today). Circuit majorities are likely at stake in this presidential election for the First, Second, Third, Fourth, Fifth, Sixth, Seventh and Eleventh Circuit Courts of Appeal. That includes the federal appeals courts for New York City, Los Angeles, Chicago, Boston, Philadelphia and virtually every other major center of finance in the country.

On the Supreme Court, six of the current nine justices will be 70 years old or older on January 20, 2009. There is a widespread expectation that the next president could make four appointments in just his first term, with maybe two more in a second term. Here too we are poised for heavy change.

These numbers ought to raise serious concern because of Mr. Obama's extreme left-wing views about the role of judges. He believes -- and he is quite open about this -- that judges ought to decide cases in light of the empathy they ought to feel for the little guy in any lawsuit.

Speaking in July 2007 at a conference of Planned Parenthood, he said: "[W]e need somebody who's got the heart, the empathy, to recognize what it's like to be a young teenage mom. The empathy to understand what it's like to be poor, or African-American, or gay, or disabled, or old. And that's the criteria by which I'm going to be selecting my judges."

On this view, plaintiffs should usually win against defendants in civil cases; criminals in cases against the police; consumers, employees and stockholders in suits brought against corporations; and citizens in suits brought against the government. Empathy, not justice, ought to be the mission of the federal courts, and the redistribution of wealth should be their mantra.

In a Sept. 6, 2001, interview with Chicago Public Radio station WBEZ-FM, Mr. Obama noted that the Supreme Court under Chief Justice Earl Warren "never ventured into the issues of redistribution of wealth and sort of more basic issues of political and economic justice in this society," and "to that extent as radical as I think people tried to characterize the Warren Court, it wasn't that radical."

He also noted that the Court "didn't break free from the essential constraints that were placed by the Founding Fathers in the Constitution, at least as it has been interpreted." That is to say, he noted that the U.S. Constitution as written is only a guarantee of negative liberties from government -- and not an entitlement to a right to welfare or economic justice.

This raises the question of whether Mr. Obama can in good faith take the presidential oath to "preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution" as he must do if he is to take office. Does Mr. Obama support the Constitution as it is written, or does he support amendments to guarantee welfare? Is his provision of a "tax cut" to millions of Americans who currently pay no taxes merely a foreshadowing of constitutional rights to welfare, health care, Social Security, vacation time and the redistribution of wealth? Perhaps the candidate ought to be asked to answer these questions before the election rather than after.

Every new federal judge has been required by federal law to take an oath of office in which he swears that he will "administer justice without respect to persons, and do equal right to the poor and to the rich." Mr. Obama's emphasis on empathy in essence requires the appointment of judges committed in advance to violating this oath. To the traditional view of justice as a blindfolded person weighing legal claims fairly on a scale, he wants to tear the blindfold off, so the judge can rule for the party he empathizes with most.

The legal left wants Americans to imagine that the federal courts are very right-wing now, and that Mr. Obama will merely stem some great right-wing federal judicial tide. The reality is completely different. The federal courts hang in the balance, and it is the left which is poised to capture them.

A whole generation of Americans has come of age since the nation experienced the bad judicial appointments and foolish economic and regulatory policy of the Johnson and Carter administrations. If Mr. Obama wins we could possibly see any or all of the following: a federal constitutional right to welfare; a federal constitutional mandate of affirmative action wherever there are racial disparities, without regard to proof of discriminatory intent; a right for government-financed abortions through the third trimester of pregnancy; the abolition of capital punishment and the mass freeing of criminal defendants; ruinous shareholder suits against corporate officers and directors; and approval of huge punitive damage awards, like those imposed against tobacco companies, against many legitimate businesses such as those selling fattening food.

Nothing less than the very idea of liberty and the rule of law are at stake in this election. We should not let Mr. Obama replace justice with empathy in our nation's courtrooms.

well said, nobama.

ummm, correct me if i'm wrong, but wasn't it Clinton that created NAFTA? I love how this always gets pinned on the republicans. Also, If I'm not mistaken, a big reason why we're in this economic mess is becasue of Clinton & democratic policies. Their belief that owning a house is a friggin right. Oh yeah, the dems saying back in 2005 that nothing was wrong w/ Freddie & Fannie, the republicans sounding the alarm was just a publicity stunt. hmmmmmmmmm

I wanted to write more about the Supreme Court but I ran out of room. I only have 1000 words to work with.

About your first comment. I completely agree that a lot of people out there are misguided with their faith in Obama. That is what I was trying state. I have reasons as to why I picked him over McCain. But there are a lot of people who are voting for a sense of change without realizing what that exactly means.

I respect that you are probably not voting for Obama judging by your name. But hopefully you can understand why I voted for him. He represents the best interests of my family and friends.

Did I blame the Republicans for NAFTA? No. I believe it needs to be changed and Obama is in favor of changing it.

Nice rebuttal Nobama...

I'll only choose to comment on the first "Point" that Mr. Dreste makes for Obama in order to keep this short.

1. NAFTA- this was a Clinton policy, not Republican. Not only that, I don't get a sense of you understanding the difference on Obama vs. McCain's thoughts on this. Your argument makes no sense.

2. Minimum wage- Another free handout proposed by the Dems. How many people do you really think raise a family on minimum wage? The vast majority of minimum wage jobs are paid to high school and college kids working part time jobs or seasonal workers. In essence this squeezes out adding additional jobs because companies can't afford to pay for new hires. Not to mention that they don't pay any taxes on this income anyway, and now Obama wants to give them even more back.

3. College Education- I'm a big fan of it, no doubt. I went to college during the Clinton administration. My parents were (and still are) as middle class as it gets. I was shot down for Pell Grants and had a little trouble securing a student loan at first because my parents actually both worked. It absolutely sickened me the first week of each semester when you'd see all the minority and foreign students in line waiting to get their Pell grant and loan checks, then you'd wouldn't see them on campus until the beginning of the next semester. Why? Because all they wanted was a free handout, not to actually obtain an education and get ahead in life. We had Affirmative Action in our chosen majors- didn't matter if someone who was a minority never showed up for class and barely had a 2.0 GPA beat out a hard working 3.5 GPA candidate for the program.

Why do I bring all of this up? Because it's just another example of how Dem's like to twist things around about redistribution of wealth. I'm not just talking about welfare for jobs. It's welfare for education, for trade agreements, for healthcare, for friggin' everything. People abuse this system and the ones who actually pull themselves up from their bootstraps and bust their asses get penalized. What an incentive system that is...

nothings givin to you, you have to take it!

To vote for a candidate based on how this person's policies are going to affect just your family is a very short sighted way of looking at one of the most important civic duties you have. Will I have to pay less taxes with Obama and not McCain possibly but that is not going to decide my vote. I'll look at who is going to be the best person for this country as a whole. I just wish for once a candidate would say that the government is wasting and spending too much money and they promise to shrink the federal government but all they do is promise you this and promise you that...both parties.

As far as democrates wanting to constantly raise minimume wage - it has nothing to do with helping poor people make a "livable wage" and everything to do with union pay. A lot of union contracts base their pay on what the current minimum wage is so that when minimum wage is raised that is an automatic pay raise for a lot of union members. If you are at a ponit in life that the best you can do is only get a job earing minimum wage then buddy you have a lot bigger issues going on than what you are getting paid. If minimum wage is all you can get then you are either stupid or have made some very very poor decisions in life.

NObama… you sound a lot like the Congressional minority when Pelosi wouldn’t let them play on the same playground at the end of the 110th Congress (as we know it). Complain, complain, and complain… but he said this and she said that. Why can’t I just get my way again? Enough of your whining already. Republicans have had 8 years, 6 of them in control of the Administration and Congress, to shape policy and look where it has gotten this country. We wouldn’t even be having these debates if your elected Republican leaders could make the right choices in the first place. Clearly the majority of America is tired of your parties failed policies and we are standing up and putting an end to it. I am so glad that I moved out of the mid-west to Washington, D.C.. It’s a breath of fresh air; experiencing life outside of the confines of mid-west cynicism and closed minded values and beliefs. I can’t wait to see Missouri turn blue on November 4th. The only thought more exciting than that is knowing that my democratic vote in northern Virginia will push Obama into the presidency where he rightfully belongs.

Barack the Vote! I tip my hat to you Jeff Dreste.

Welcome to socialism all you obama supporters. Have fun being lazy the rest of your life.

Haley, Pelosi is a nut job. I agree with you that this is boiling down to a he said-she said type of thing. However, I'm sick of people laying blame solely on Bush. Obama's PR and Marketing machine is impressive, I'll give him that. What is disappointing is that everyone is taking him at word instead of looking into the facts.

Look what Yahoo News had to say about his infomercial last night:

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20081030/ap_on_el_ge/fact_check_obama_ad

Spin spin spin.... that's all Obama does

I am interested in hearing how you feel as though my statement is placing blame solely on President Bush... as we've all learned in 4th grade social science: the President doesn't make the laws he just ratifies them. I blame the Republican Party in general for the state of this country. My assertion is simply that we don’t need four more years of these failed policies – which is exactly what John McCain is proposing. No matter what way you slice it, it’s challenging to see a different perspective when McCain voted with Senate Republicans and took the President’s point of view 90% of the time. That isn’t a superfluous statement, that’s a fact.
And it sounds like you all really need a lesson in economics. Obama’s plan is a far cry from socialism. Once again, not shockingly, you all seem to fail at recognizing that. Obama’s plans make the tax system more progressive overall.
Favoring higher tax rates for the wealthy than for the less fortunate isn't socialism, and if it is, then the U.S. has been a socialist country for nearly a century, under both Democrats and Republicans. Socialism involves state ownership of the means of economic production and state-directed sharing of the wealth. America's democratic capitalist system is neither socialist nor pure free market; rather, it mixes the two (at least since the progressive income tax was introduced 95 years ago). Under it, the wealthy pay higher income tax rates than those who are less fortunate do.
So you’re riding Obama for policies your own party has supported for decades. Get an education before you post such nonsense on a public forum. You waste everyone’s time.
And p.s. this only affects families making more than $200,000 a year… last time I checked that income cap is far above the average family income for the state of Missouri… or the city of St. Louis for that matter. A vote for McCain’s economic policies is a vote against 97% of your family’s best interests.

XOXO

Haley, you are correct the graduated tax bracket has existed for decades. That doesn't mean we should make it even more exagerated. When will it stop?

Also, if YOU do some research you will find out that Obama's tax plan and programs with a income cap of $200,000 or lower receiving tax breaks will run up another TRILLION dollar deficit. You know how he would end up avoiding that? That $200K will start getting pushed down like it already has been. 2 weeks ago that number was $250K.

I read a good little story on Yahoo Finance last night that might hit home with some of you Obama diciples:

A man walks past a homeless begger outside of a restaurant. He eats dinner and when the waiter brings the check he asks the waiter who he is voting for. The waiter says he is voting for Obama because he believes those that have more wealth should be taxed more with that money going to those that do not have as much wealth. The man then says he was going to tip the waiter $10 but per the waiter's rationale he should give that $10 to the homeless begger because the waiter obviously has more wealth than the man on the street. The waiter takes exception and says "No, only the rich should be taxed more". The problem is the waiter, and so many other Obama diciples, love the idea of the government playing Robin Hood but when the buck stops with them they would be singing a different tune.

As if the first $5.3 trillion dollars of deficit was our fault is well… I digress (and suspect you’ll aggressively blame a huge portion of that, wrongfully, on one Mr. William Jefferson Clinton). You are simply mistaken, my friend, mistaken. I have a happy hour to get to (on the east coast it’s about that time) so I don’t care to negate your ramblings with more facts. Especially since I suspect it wouldn’t change your vote in the first place. I’m not into wasting my own time either.

And that little story of yours certainly has cycled through the email chains hasn't? ...too bad it fails to miss the point and creates a logical fallacy.

I patiently await the rapture.

All of you McCain supporters say what you want, vote for who you want. It really doesn't matter anymore. McCain has ran a horrible campaign, just look at his choice he made for a running mate. Say what you want about all the candidates and running mates, Out of the 4, who is the one that doesn't belong. Great choice John- Enough said. Even the "hockey moms" should be embarased. I think we will just send her around the country and drop hockey pucks and smile. I agree that President Bush isn't to blame for everything, but should take a lot of the blame along with his administration. McCain has done nothing at all to seperate himself from Bush. He uses words like "my friends" and my "fellow american's" and expects to relate to all Americans. When he has totally missed hitting the mark with the middle class. Whether your middle class or even upper class, look throughout history, who are the ones who are more important to this country. I am sure that we can afford to lose a lot more upper class jobs and people than middle class jobs and people. He talks about Obama being a celebrity. Well, what did McCain do to Joe the Plumber. I mean that guy got his 5 minutes of fame. He says he is a plumber, but has no license, so is making well under the $200,000 that the Obama plan would give him a tax plan on, then says he is going to buy a plumbing company, and because of that he is going to be making more than $200,000 - $250,000 so his taxes can be raised. Who in there right mind would sell this guy a company he is crazy, and can't even relate to the fact that he is middle class and even owning a company will not change this. This guy is crazy, and McCain just gave him his 5 minutes of fame.

McCain has made terrible choices with his campain and hasn't given us a lot to look forward to if he was president. Enough said.

Haley, don't believe the hype. Take 3 minutes to ready this link on yahoo

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20081030/ap_on_el_ge/fact_check_obama_ad

I'm not saying that Bush hasn't made mistakes. I'd happily debate about the mess he inherited from Clinton. And the depleted military. And then that little thing called 9/11 happened. Any president, Dem or Republican, would have been set up for failure.

Back to my point- Obama is full of BS. Read the Yahoo article. History has also shown us, w/ the exception of Kennedy, that Dem Presidents raise taxes to the middle class. Obama's unprecedented spending proposal and false hope that we can 100% pull out of Iraq in 18 months simply doesn't add up. Voting for McCain does not equal 8 more years of George W Bush.

Obama is trying to BUY votes through his false promises and websites that spit out your tax savings. All of which are unsubstantiated and amount to nothing more than a blank promise of: I will give you this much if you vote for me.

McCain has outlined his policies much more and is not playing on America's stupid and disparaged. McCain is a proven LEADER with military and senate experience. We are electing the next LEADER OF THE FREE WORLD. What has Obama led other than an empty campaign filled with promises for "change we need".

I feel like Americans are so stupid I could run for president and just say I'm going to give everyone $1800 if you vote for me. That's my policy. And I would probably win the election.

Times are tough right now and I'm not so blind as to say some of the blame doesn't fall on the Bush administration but it is a small part. It's easy to place the blame on Bush, relate your opponent to Bush, and promise change for the better in times like these.

The point of this is we're not electing a new Chief of Treasury or Federal Reserve Chair. We are electing a new LEADER. Someone who has exhibited the fortitude to stand for what America is and act in her best interest. Not a person that says whatever appeals to the masses to get elected.

And to mtrokey, Governor Palin stands out among the 4 because she is actually running an entire state. She has a proven track record of leadership and accomplishment much moreso than Obama. Maybe you're saying something about yourself when you reference her smile and good looks. Can attractive women not lead the same as an old white man or a younger black senator?

I wonder who the person who wrote this article is voting for? Sounds a little bias to me.

Bottom line doesn't matter if Bush was a Democrat or a Republican. Bush just so happens to be a Republican and for 8 years the same old policies have been going on. And in defense to Republican's- if Bush was a Democrat- same thing these policies are not working. Let's change them. What is the best way to do that. Not bring in a person with the same views and policy as the previous administration. McCain needs to admit that Bush and his administration have messed up, and he will not do that. All he can say is that he is not President Bush. Well act like it Mr. Maverick. Quit putting me asleep with your speeches. Reach the American people. Obama has 100,000 people show up in St. Louis. How many does McCain have?

I know there are a lot of issues out there on the table for the next president and the biggest one is the Economy. McCain messed up, whether it was something he said wrong or just didn't know anything about but he made the comment that the fundamentals of the economy are strong. How much more wrong could that guy be....

Can anyone agree with that? This is one if not the most important issue and McCain or the people who write his speeches, cannot even get that right.

Say what you want about McCain and Obama and their policies, etc. Obama will admit that he doesn't know everything when it comes to being president on issues such as Foreign Policy so he picks Biden who I have heard both Democrats and Republicans say good things about his policies and views. Now lets see McCain- he says my plan will do this, and mine will do this. Still hasn't showed it. Now McCain thinks he knows everything so he picks someone who knows nothing. And she admits it.

To be a great leader you need to know your strengths and weaknesses and Obama does a much better job than McCain.

So I guess Matt Blunt would be a good VP because of his experience?

Where do you nutjob republicans get off saying that Obama's campaign is just a bunch of enpty promises? What has he done that could possibly lead you to believe that he is lying? Has he been president before? Has McCain for that matter?

While I respect John McCain for his military service and the sacrifices he made for this country, I am able to seperate that from his political career. When it comes down to it, being a POW just doesn't matter in the oval office. John McCain clearly is fighting for the upper class and is in no way in touch with the crisis that most of this country if fighting through. McCain can sympathize with me the same way that I can sympathize with a woman giving birth.

This republican party has done more to destroy the constitution than ever before. Bush shredded it with his irresponsible actions in Iraq. Cheney shredded it with refusals to adhere to subpoenas. He has expanded the role of the vice president far beyond what it was ever meant to be. He claims to be part of the legislative branch when it behooves him and then hides behnd executive priviledge when questioned. What does this have to do with the McCain ticket? His running mate Sarah Palin, that he chose has expressed the same extreme views on the vice presidency. Government has become big in all the areas that it never should have. We have illegal wire taps and descriminatory searches due to "terror lists".

One more gripe...will people please quit voting based on abortion! This issue is NEVER going to change. It was decided 30 some years ago by people who are smarter than any of us and it will never be overturned. Women have fought too hard to gain their rights and they will not just turn over decisions about their bodies to some Washington suits.

Sorry if it sounds like a bunch of rambling.

I guess it goes without saying that the promises and things the candidates say to get elected will not follow through with those promises....making them empty...OBama knows how to use his rhetoric...McCain is old...McCain is a war hero who will work actively as a president than O'Bama will...just my opinion but I think McCain deserves it better than O'Bama...besides what has he done in comparison to our War Hero Senator??? The man can speak very very well but I don't think hes got the experience to run the greateast country in the world...thats my two cents...its time to vote now

O.K. here it goes.....I'm a Veteran went thru one war Desert Shield and am a Surgical Nurse with a BSN from SIUE. I BUSTED MY ASS FOR MY COUNTRY and my FAMILY to get where I'm at and this is bullshit....if Obama gets in we are fucked we will become the worlds "bitch" with no fuckin balls this lets all hold hands and sing koom-by-ya is bullshit.....the reality is the world has and always will hate us PERIOD!!! and if we are not diligent there WILL BE another 911 you can take that to the bank. On health care thats bullshit to say the poor don't have access to health care OBAMA HAS YOU FUCKIN DUPED heres a little truth for you I scrub in on approx. 4-6 surgery's a day and of those at least 2 ARE "self pay" which means NO PAY......as long as that patient is paying something as little as $2.00 a month there is NOTHING we can do to them and MOST DON'T PAY SHIT. All they do is show up to the local ER and THEY ARE TREATED....and if they need surgery WE OPERATE PRO FUCKING BONO. Onlt it's not really pro-bono because those costs are passed on to me and you by higher ins. premiums and other assorted costs but in the end WE ARE PAYING so the "poor/lazy" mother fuckers are getting there state aid and FREE medical and me and you foot the bill.....SO thats OK with you Obama supporters and you want to give them more free shit are you fucking nuts!!!!! how fucking stupid are you I that doesn't piss you off then you are really fucked up. How about this here one for you A middle aged male was admited with no control over his urinary/gastrointestinal system he had 4 ruptured discs that need imediate attentiion so 12hrs of back surgery approx . cost 100,000 dollars..........now heres the kicker this "gentleman" was a convicted child molester with a 20yr sentence well the good state of Illinois picked up the tab.......that means ME and YOU payed for this piece of shits surgery and Obama has the fuckin balls to say the underprivileged don't have access to health care well guess what most of these "underprivileged" CHOSE to be cause it's EASY.....well guess what FUCK YOU BARAK HUSSAIN OBAMA you want me to continue to help enable these lazy fuckers and you fools are gonna vote for him........So you cannot say shit when someone id ahead of you in the grocery store and they are wearing nicer clothes than you and their bill comes to $200 and there portion is 30 fuckin dollars YOU HAVE NO RIGHT TO SAY SHIT cause once your boy gets in that will be yours and my reality (more so than now)..........So that right "change is coming" for the worst and WE WILL be POORER in the end and possibly speaking fuckin arabic!!!!!

first, judging by the wording of your post VINNIE, I worry that some day I'll end up on your surgical table. If a wordsmith like you can graduate from college, then degrees are way overvalued. This notion that diplomacy is a bad thing is just ridiculous. This country cannot afford the manpower or the money to continue this "preemptive war strategy". If we continue to send our military after every country that pisses us off or does something we just don't like then we cannot expect much of the world to respect us. We cannot keep this up, believe it or not, we need the rest of the world. We need their natural resources and military support. I am thankful for your service, both of my brothers spent time in Iraq, but you really need to adjust your world views and look further along than the barrel of your rifle.

Try not to curse so much, it makes you sound ignorant.

Vinnie you really do have some great points as far as people going without insurance, food stamps etc. hey it frustrates me all the time also.

The thing you need to realize is this is not a problem that will ever go away. You are always going to have poverty and people who cannot pay for a 100,000 surgery, insurance premiums, etc. Whether it is Obama or McCain this is what they will have to deal with along with any other President that will come along in the future.

McCain doesn't want to talk about it and just lets it go, and Obama comes right out and talks about it. McCain wants to talk about Joe the Plumber more than he does the issues that he is faced with lately. Is this old man crazy or what. I mean you are a veteran, which I respect your busting your ass for this country, but McCain and Bush now have verterans that don't even support them and McCain is a vetrean. Obviously, you have done great for your self after your service to our country, but what about the men and women who go into the mlilatary and have nothing when they went in and sometimes do not have much when they get out. Look at where the recruiting is done for most of these people that enlist. Some of these people that go in are from families that are on food stamps, don't have insurance, etc. What do you do with these people after they get out and can't find jobs, because the Republicans shipped them overeas but still wants to give those companies tax breaks for doing so.

All he does is shy away and say "my plan will take care of this and that", and it is not all McCain's fault. McCain doesn't know anything about it nor does anyone in his administration obviously (Bush). Obama knows a lot more about it than McCain will ever know when it comes to your real issue that you have presented in your comment. Obama has been there before with the Food Stamps, needing money for scholarships, etc. McCain doesn't have a clue what to do.

If these are the real issues to you, which it sounds like they are to you, then you need to find a president that knows and will know how to deal with them. I know this probably will not change your vote, but just realize McCain just doesn't want to deal with it.

If the answer for McCain and the rest of their party is to ignore it or just cut them off, hey that is great, but what do you do with these people afterwards..... If a person goes into a hospital and is denied surgery or urgent care, what do think that person's family, friends, etc. is going to do to that hospital or their personnel? if someone who has worked 10 to 15 years for a company with benefits and has now lost his job and benefits becuase he has been downsized (which is happening more and more each day) and cant afford COBRA, You won't have to worry anymore of other countries hating us, you will have a civil war on your hands, which our Police force or those fake security guards, have no way to handle. If you beef up the police force, then you just raised taxes. You can't bring back our troops because they are at war. Oh don't forget about the law suits that are now going to make these people who cannot afford a thing, will now be rich along with their lawyers, and the hospitals are going to even lose more money than before.

Vinnie- All I have to say is that all of this pisses me off also, but if this is your most important issue that you want a President to take care of, think about who really wants to deal with it and who really wants to push it under the rug.

The fact that you think the Republicans or anyone who swore to protect and defend this nation would intentionally leave Osama out there for political gain, shows how sick in the head you are.
