Obama's Infomercial

At 8:00 p.m. tonight you'll likely not be able to avoid the infomercial being aired by the Obama campaign. Barack and his excess of campaign money have bought 30 minutes of airtime on CBS, NBC, Fox, Univision, MSNBC (his official campaign channel), BET and TV One. Obama is going to use the 30 minutes to have "average" Americans air their problems and Obama's plans to help.

With the election just 6 days away, this may seal the deal for Obama. Or it could backfire and tick off would-be voters by forcing them to miss their scheduled program for a political commercial. Personally, I'm wondering if this is just a sample of things to come. Will Obama use the Oval Office as his own personal platform to air to the American public his socialist agenda? Obama has already stated his favorable opinions for the redistribution of wealth by using a liberal judicial system that will favor the "downtrodden." He has stated himself that the courts have failed in establishing "redistributive change." The Warren court, he said, failed to "break free from the essential constraints" in the U.S. Constitution and launch a major redistribution of wealth. Be sure to read that entire link...that's scary stuff. This guy is going to appoint Supreme Court justices that will favor the redistribution of wealth.

Equally scary, U.S. Rep. Marcy Kaptur (D. Toledo) whipped the crowd up before Mr. Obama took the stage yesterday telling them that America needed a Second Bill of Rights guaranteeing all Americans a job, health care, homes, an education, and a fair playing field for business and farmers.

Perhaps Obama can create his new bill of rights using this language:

Article 40. Citizens have the right to work (that is, to guaranteed employment and pay in accordance wit the quantity and quality of their work, and not below the state-established minimum), including the right to choose their trade or profession, type of job and work in accordance with their inclinations, abilities, training and education, with due account of the needs of society...
Article 41. Citizens have the right to rest and leisure...
The length of collective farmers' working and leisure time is established by their collective farms. Article 42. Citizens have the right to health protection.

Of course, if that's his new Bill of Rights, he should give credit the original writers who wrote the Constitution of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics. Scary stuff, indeed.

hahaha...ok. well, let's just say for a moment I buy that: At least Democrats had the ability to hold the president in check through filibuster and later through control of Congress. If OB is elected, there is no balance, especially if the Dems control 60 seats in Congress. And given the penchant for Dems to attempt to silence opponents via Fairness Doctrine, media control, etc., it would be much easier for OB to push his doctrine, which he has made very evident in the past. Additionally, his support for judicial activism is nothing short of disturbing. Saying the Warren Court didn't go far enough shows where he wants to lead. Lastly, it is appalling that it is only now these comments and beliefs are coming to light considering he has been campaigning since 2004.

Oh, and lastly again, GWB is hardly my hero considering his expansion of the federal government and inability to hold in check government handout programs. Bush couldn't be labled as a conservative due to his spending and McCain could be labeled a conservative either.

The only reason for the possible Dem control of Congress is the failure of the Republican party to get it together. As long the Republicans goose step to their leader, regardless of who that is or what they do, then the backlash has dangerous potential as people reach for anything different.
