Thread Name: BS: Obama is a socialist
Subject: RE: BS: Obama is a socialist
We have reason to be leery of any politician. But if we want to participate in the process (and some of us do), we have to decide who we think is most likely to make the changes we think the country needs. There's nothing wrong with people doing that. What is wrong, is if, after the candidate they voted for gets elected, they don't hold that person's feet to the fire the entire time they're in office.

I'm not leery of Obama because of those charges that a bunch of liars have been spreading about him. The people doing that want me to vote for McCain so they can continue giving my tax money to people who don't need it. The people I'm leery of are the ones who I know are trying to mislead me into voting against my best interests.

And the post I am now responding to is a prime example of why I am fairly convinced that the person who posted it is campaigning for McCain.
