I wasn't being that specific, but now that you mention it....
That is an issue of importance, and one that was decided straight down the line, ideologically. The left leaning judges felt that it was o.k. for the government to take your home in order to give it to someone else. An absolutely outrageous and shocking decision.
But, in a more macro sense, Obama and other like minded Democrats feel that they have a right to take assets from me at gun point and give them to who ever they feel "deserves" it more, because of their so-called "misfortune."
Obama is a Marxist. And he's been wonderfully marketed by the Democrat party and the far-left in this country. 2008 has been the year that they took all the lessons of politics and sociology and pulled off an extremely successful ruse on the American people. Frankly, his campaign demonstrates the lessons I read in every left-wing propaganda book I was forced to read in college about how to trick the electorate into voting for Democrats. Dishonest stuff written by guys like George Lakoff. They marketed this radical leftwing guy, completely out of step with the majority of the country, as some kind of bridge building centrist candidate. With their understanding of marketing and sociology, with the unstated, but unfalling, support from the mainstream media, and a smooth, articulate, attractive, ethnic candidate. The media will refrain from any kind of substantiative look into his background. The race-card will be used to avoid any direct questions.
Hillary wasn't the candidate because, while she's pretty far to the left as well, she's independent. Obama is dependent upon the people who caused his rocket to super stardom. That's why it's so unsettling that the media is reluctant to report on WHO has carried him this far. The information is out there, we've discussed it here, but that doesn't reach the masses. And frankly, it's too messy to present to the public in a sound byte.
If you want to be a Marxist, you do have that right. But make it clear. If you want to be aligned with the most radical elements of America's counter-culture, you have that right as well.... but don't lie to the public and deny your association.
To believe Obama and the press, we are to now believe that wo of the most important people in Obama's career, Write and Ayers, were nothing more than "casual acquaintances." It's a bold faced lie... and the press is a willing accomplice in this, and it outrages me.
