Chink in Obama's Armor

Senator Barak Obama has once again mis-spoken, and has once again retreated into the "spin zone" in order to change the subject.

Obama stated that he would draw the troops out of Iraq, and send them back in if Al Queda were to return to Iraq. Senator McCain corrected him, stating that Al Queda is already in Iraq, which is true.

Obama's "spin" response was that Al Queda is only in Iraq because Bush and McCain brought them into Iraq. This was not the issue, and is dishonest on several levels. The issue, presented by Obama, himself, was the implication that Al Queda is no longer in Iraq - after all, how could they "return" if they never left?

First, we are not in Iraq due solely to Bush and McCain, as implied by Obama - even the vast majority of Democrats voted for going into Iraq.

Second, for someone claiming to be the "agent of change for the future", Obama seems to retreat into the past in order to cover his mis-steps. After all, the issue had nothing to do with how, why or when Al Queda came to Iraq. The issue was whether or not they are there now, as stated by McCain, or if they were already gone, as implied by Obama when he said he would send troops only upon "Al Queda's return to Iraq". "Return" implies they are not there at this time, and that is incorrect. McCain was simply trying to correct Obama's statement, since Obama is obviously ignorant of what is actually going on in Iraq.

Obama, thinking people know that you are an empty suit, with words as your only strength. We realize you know nothing of foreign policy, or what is really going on. We know you have no inkling about money and economics, because your numbers do not even come close to balancing. We know you are nothing but a gas-bag, albeit a charming one. You remind me of the Pied Piper, and if given the chance, you will lead all your lemmings to destruction.

We know these things because you have no experience. We know it because you have not accomplished anything substantive while in office. We know it because you still refuse to talk issues, and offer anything of substance. We know it because your financial numbers do not even clome close to balancing. So far, your entire campaign has been one of rhetoric. Like you, there has been no substance.

So, I challenge you, Obama! Get in front of the cameras and tell America exactly what solutions you offer. Be specific. Deal with the issues. And explain to us what the effects of your choices would be. Begin answering some of the hard questions, and not just the stupid, meaningless ones that the Oba-maniacs in the media have been tossing your way, such as whether or not you like Farrakhan.

Stand up, Obama. Tell us what is really in your heart. If you are going to propose 400 million in new government programs, show us, exactly, how those programs will be paid for. If you think government should rule the people rather than vice versa, tell us why.

Exactly what would you do about the illegal immigrants already here? How, exactly, would you fund free college for everyone? And what would be the effect if every child were to go to college, even though the number of jobs requiring college degrees are not increasing? What, exactly, would you do about "sanctuary cities" that laugh at and ignore the laws of this country? What type of person, exactly, would you appoint to the Supreme Court? Why, exactly, do you refuse to wear the American Flag lapel pin, and why, exactly, do you refuse to place your hand on your heart when the pledge of allegiance is recited?

If you want the votes of thinking people, Obama, then you must begin giving us something more substantive to think about. The fools, the blind and the lemmings will follow you simply because of your empty words. But thinking, educated people need more.

So, whatcha got, Obama? I'll bet you have nothing. Nothing but grand words of hope and change. I'll bet you have nothing more to offer except empty promises, grand lies and useless rhetoric.
