Why you should vote for Obama!

1.             The price of gas is at an all time high and scheduled to go higher.  We all know we should drive less, so a vote for Obama will force us to drive less!!!

2.             The Muslim world does not like us.  Obama is playing into their hands so a vote for Obama will make them think better about us!!!

3.             There is a fiscal crisis coming in January with Obama.  Taxes on middle income families have dropped 7.3%, or $4,000 per family.  New taxes are to take effect in January, so we should vote for Obama, because we all like higher taxes!!!

4.             Obama has wasted $470 Billion on Stimulus and created four years of trillion dollar debt!!!

5.             Obama Care is to take effect in January and he is trying to cut over 7 trillion from Medicare to pay for Obama Care!!!

Our Country is going down a path to destruction.  It has been said that once people realize they can receive more from Government than they pay in that we will disintegrate.

All of the above are promises from Obama.  We can count on him to tell us the truth!  He would not lie to us!

Take into consideration and vote for Obama.  If you do not believe in this reasoning, you do have a choice!

Why you should vote for Romney

Why should you vote for Romney

The Obama administration seems to be out to destroy America.  They have all but declared war on the Catholic Church.  I am not Catholic, but if Obama is successful in his campaign against Catholics, the rest of our religious freedoms are at risk.  It is time we stand up for the rights of Catholics and all other religions.

Obama seems to want the United States to diminish in strength while letting other nations become stronger.  He has not taken steps to combat the “Arab Spring”.   In fact he seems to support it.  Recent events have shown that we will allow our Embassies to be run over by radicals.  The murder of our embassy personnel is truly an act of war, but Obama stands by and lets it happen.

Obama has turned his back on Israel.  The vote at the DNC convention to put God back in the platform and to support Jerusalem as the capital of Israel was a farce.  Obama will not support Israel and we all know it.  I believe that Israel will have no choice except to destroy Iran’s nuclear abilities.   I do not understand how any thinking Jewish person can support this man.  Israel is our ally in the Middle East and we are turning our back on them.

Obama is not a call for “hope and change”, but is bent on making our country a second rate nation.  Many fell for his line about “hope and change”, but are having “buyers remorse”.  He is not out to make this nation “the light of the world”, but is out to make us second rate.

I ask you to consider these thoughts when you vote in November.  We must take our nation back and restore it.

Do you need to vote this November?

Have you considered the consequences  of not voting in November of this year.  Let me give you some food for thought.

If Obama is reelected there is a good chance that he will be able to appoint possibly four new members of the Supreme Court.  He will surely appoint very liberal members of the court.

Consider the ages of the present members of the court.

Elena Kaget                        Age 52

Samuel A. Alito            Age 61

Antonin Scalia            Age 76

Anthony Kennedy            Age 76

Clarence Thomas            Age 64

Ruth Bater Ginsburg            Age 79

Stephen Breyer            Age 74

Sonia Sotomayer            Age 58

Chief Justice John G. Roberts            Age 57

It is very apparent that if Obama is reelected that he will change the direction of the court.  Please consider this when you vote this November

OBAMA'S ACCOMPLISHMENTS!

Let’s take a look at Obama’s accomplishments.

He is the First President to oversee a cut in the credit rating of the United States.

He is the First President to apply for aid as a foreign student and then deny that he is a foreigner.

He is the First President to have a Social Security from a state he has never lived it.

He is the First President to be held in contempt of court for obstructing oil drilling in the Gulf of Mexico.

He is the First President to require all Americans to purchase a product from a third party.

He is the First President to spend a Trillion Dollars on “shovel ready” jobs when there is no such thing.

He is the First President to abrogate bankruptcy laws to turn over control to his Union Supporters.

He is the First President to terminate America’s ability to put a man in space.

He is the First President to tell a manufacturing company in which state they are allowed to locate a company. Boeing is the company and they have succeeded in Obama being overruled.

He is the First President to file lawsuits against states he took an oath to protect. Think of AZ, WI, OH, & IN.

He is the First President to withdraw an existing coal permit that had been properly issued.

He is the First President to appoint 45 czars to replace elected officials.

He is the First President to golf 73 separate times in his first 2-1/2 years. The count is now up to 90.

He is the First President to hide his medical, educational and travel records.

He is the First President to go on multiple global “Apology Tours”.

He is the First President to have 22 personal servants, at taxpayer expense, for his wife.

He is the First President to have a dog trainer on retainer, at taxpayer expense, in the amount of $102.000 per year.

He is the First President to tell us the Morning Call to Worship, by Islamic Clerics is the most beautiful sound on earth.

He is the First President to claim to be increasing oil production and then blocks drilling on Federal Land and blocks the Keystone Pipe Line.

I guess the question must be “How is hope and change working out for you?”

Remember these accomplishments when you vote this year!

Time is running out for Israel! This is true on two accounts. First, Iran is determined to produce a nuclear weapon. They are also working on a missile that will reach Israel.

Israel is not going to let Iran obtain a nuclear weapon and a missile that can reach Israel. Israel is so small that it cannot absorb a nuclear strike and survive. The rest of the world is taking very little action to stop Iran. Sure, we have instituted sanctions against them, but they are pushing ahead in spite of this.

The Second reason for Israel to take action is Obama. If he is reelected and does not have to worry about getting the Jewish vote, I believe he will then turn his back on Israel.

Israel has no choice, but to strike Iran. They are our ally! The only democracy in the Mid East. We must stand with them. Our people need to rise up and let our leaders know, we cannot abandon Israel.

APOLOGIZE!

Two of our soldiers were killed because of an incident where some copies of the Koran were burned. Today two more men were killed for the same reason.

Obama, and most of his staff have apologized for this incident. There should have been an apology, but not by our President. The apology should have come from the officer in command of Afghanistan. The President should not have been the one to apologize. Again he has bowed to the Muslins’.

This is just another case of Obama being in favor of the Muslim community.

OBAMA'S ACCOMPLISHMENTS!

What has Obama accomplished? Let’s review!

Number One is the Solyndra affair. Obama touted this company as one of the most efficient producers of Green Energy. He was so sure that He personally approved the expenditure of $535 Million as a loan to them. This came out of the taxpayers pocket, not his. This approval was in 2009, and by September of 2011 the company filed bankruptcy. A total waste of taxpayer dollars!

Number Two is the secret drone that was flying over Iran. Iran was able to capture the drone intact. They then promised to share the technology with China. When the drone was captured we should have sent in aircraft to destroy it. Instead, Obama, asked “pretty please” for Iran to return it. We again end up with egg on our face because of our inept leader, and they laughed at us.

Number Three, Obama overreached his authority in the matter of requiring Catholics to provide birth control and abortions. He does not seem to have any regard for the rights spelled out in the first amendment to our Constitution. He is not a defender of the Constitution, as he has sworn to uphold. He has far overstepped his authority.

Number Four, He keeps talking about creating jobs and what a great service he has done. He then stops the Keystone Pipeline, a project that could create as many as 20,000 jobs in the construction of the pipeline and other suppliers.

Number Five, He was all excited about the “Arab Spring”, but with no follow through. He supported the uprising in Egypt as a chance for real democracy there. As it turns out “The Muslin Brotherhood” has gained control of the Egyptian parliament. This is a radical organization that will not be our friends.

Number Six, Obama seems to be set on raising taxes on “The Rich”. This is not what our country needs with our economy in the present condition. He does not understand that “The Rich” are the ones that create jobs. Raising their tax will only drive their assets off shore! I remember someone saying,” I never had a job from a poor person”.

Last, but not least, Obama made the statement in 2008 that if he did not decrease the federal deficit before his next election that he should not be reelected. I think that we should remind him of that and see that he does not win this year. His budget this year is not balanced, but projects a 1.3 Trillion deficit. I don’t know how he can propose this budget with a straight face!

It is time that we have a major change in Washington and our leadership.

At this point I don’t know who the Republicans will nominate. I do believe that any one of those running can do a better job to change the direction of our country. Everyday we seem to be getting closer to becoming a socialist state. Is that what we want? Look at other countries! Do we want to be like them? Socialism has failed everywhere it has been tried. When will we wake up?

Where does the problem lie

As you know I am very quick to blame Obama for all the ills of our country. He is not the cause, We are! We, the people, have let the politicians, including Obama, lie to us. We have listened to them and not called them on their lies.

I am getting to the point that we should throw them all out. I know this is extreme, but what do we do? It is our responsibility, as American Citizens, to make our leaders accountable to us.

They seem to stay in Washington and do whatever they please. That goes for passing laws that are not right. They increase their pay anytime they desire. They maintain a pay check after they have left office. It is time for change. I think we should consider term limits!

How do we correct the problems of our Country. First, YOU MUST VOTE! Second you should contact the people in congress and let them know how you feel. It is our fault if we do not keep in touch with them and let them know how we think.

Our Country is in a mess! It is up to us, the Citizens, to get it right. The stakes are high!. We will all have to make some concessions to get our debt under control. We will have to take action to stop the destruction of our great nation. It is up to us! We can not wait on the politicians to take action. We must voice our opinions and make our representatives do the right thing for our country. If we do not, we will leave our children and grandchildren with a lower standard of living than we have. We must take action!

What can you do? Get involved! Let the people in Washington know your opinion. Don’t just sit by and let the politicians take our country down the road to destruction.

ANOTHER LOSS OF JOBS

It seems that the Obama administration has taken another step against American jobs. They have made the decision to purchase the next military plane from Embraer, a company in Brazil. The order is for $950 Million for 55 aircraft. It is called the Super Tucano and will be used for pilot training and surveillance.

The Obama Administration choose this Brazilian company over the American manufacturer, Hawker Beechcraft. Fortunately the order has been put on hold because of a lawsuit by local lawmakers and Republican Candidate Newt Gindgrich.

The bottom line is another disregard for American jobs by Obama. How much longer will we tolerate this man?

What is he thinking?

WHAT IS HE THINKING?

Obama has rejected the building of the Keystone XL pipe line. Trans Canada says the pipe line could create as many as 20,000 jobs. The state department claims that only 6,000 would be created. Either way it is agreed that jobs would be created.

For Obama to stop construction to satisfy his environmental supporters is wrong. The pipe line plan has been rerouted to overcome some of the dangers that the environmenlist have raised. Obama wants to delay the project until after the November elections. Do you think he would approve it then?

Union members may not understand his actions not to create jobs. I can only hope they remember that when it comes time to vote.

What is Canada to do since Obama has blocked the pipe line? What would you do if you were Canada? Just what they plan to do, build a pipe line to their west coast and sell the oil to China!

So much for Obama’s call for energy independence! This is a man who uses every political ploy he can to get his way, without regard for what is good for the country.
