The Democrats have found themselves a modern day “Cyrano de Bergerac”.   You know the famous poet who had a huge nose.  Cyrano was in love with a beautiful woman, and knew he was too ugly that she could not possibly love him.  So he used a man that was better looking than him to talk to the girl to win her love for him.  This is exactly what the Democrats are doing with Obama.  They found a strong black man that can talk eloquently with conviction.  He is perfect for their message.  It is a message that hits all of the minorities and who better than to tell the message, than one of their own.  Who better to deceive their own race than one of there own?  They won’t even see it coming because everything they see and read says this guy is the second coming. 

But like Cyrano there is a flaw in the Democrats plan.  Sooner or later the truth will come out.  Have you seen Obama in any interviews lately?  If it is not on a teleprompter he will stumble all over himself.  His favorite words are AHHHHHHH, IIIIIIIIIII, and UHHHHHH, then he stutters himself into the ground.  He can not think for himself.  He can’t recall any facts on his own.  He doesn’t know what board he is on, how many states in America and where the big bomb was dropped.  Of course we can’t blame these mishaps on his age as the media does with McCain because Obama is not old.  No wonder he has chosen not to do any town hall meetings with McCain because he can’t think on the fly.  His handlers are doing a great job they are keeping him away from all Town Hall meetings.   There is a reason that Obama has refused to do any interviews with any of the press in these countries that he was currently touring.  He has no control over that media.  They might actually try to ask him a question that counts and we know how Obama handles those questions.  

Between the unions, trial lawyers, Moveon.org crowds and movie stars he has raised a record amount of money.  What part of America is represented by any of these groups?  What part of America is proud of any of these groups?  Sure the union has some very outstanding proud American members, but the organization itself is corrupt as hell.  But like it or not these are the #1 supporter’s of the Democrat parties.  This should tell you all you need to know about the Democrat party.  They want to help all of us people who don’t have it as good as them.  They want to defend all of us people who don’t have the education to do it on our own.  Look at all of law suits that are out there.  What do they do?  They take uneducated people that don’t have good jobs that happened to burn themselves with hot coffee or they eat too many Big Macs and they talk them into suing the big bad Business of McDonalds.  This makes a lot of sense to you right?  Or you have the millionaire Hollywood stars with all of their millions with a whole lot of time on their hands feeling guilty for all the money they have and they want to help the unfortunate.  I am all for helping the unfortunate but why put a limit on that help.  Why make sure they never have any opportunity to succeed in life.  Why make these groups so dependent on the government that they don’t want to succeed on their own.  The biggest empowerment of the human spirit is to earn something that you worked for.  The only message that the Democrats and Obama are preaching is to feel sorry for yourself and any problems that you have is the Republican’s fault. 

Obama said yesterday that he is going to take down the wall between those that have and those that have not.  Sounds a lot like socialism doesn’t it?  He apologized for everything under the sun to the people that he was embarrassed of our country.  I am sorry but a Liberal Democrat is the last person I want talking for me or this great country.  Our country did not get to where it is today by apologizing for doing the things other countries only wished they could do.  That whole crowd can’t wait for Obama to become President because then the United States would become as pathetic as all of those countries that he was apologizing too.

Until the wheels fall off of Obama’s wagon, which they will, I will be patient.  He has too much baggage, to many issues and not enough experience to get this important of a job.  I am not worried about what Hollywood thinks.  I could care less who the trial lawyers want for President.  The unions are only in this for one thing, themselves.  I care about the hard working American who works hard to make a living, doesn’t take any hand outs, and is proud of his country. 

It is America that has always been the Good Samaritan.  America has been the police of the world.  America has always been there to stick up for countries that can’t defend themselves.  America became the #1 super power in the world because of the sprit of the American people.  Not by asking the world what we should do first but by trying to do what we think is right.  Obama will figure it out sooner or later but knowledge comes with experience.  Which we all know he doesn’t have.

I know John McCain is old. That is the biggest gripe the Democrats have with John McCain.  Any of the big three Liberal news stations love this subject.  They try to catch John McCain at every opportunity they can to prove his incompetence.  Even the Late night TV shows have a couple of jokes that they tell every night about how old John McCain is. It never ends and won’t end until after the election. Then if John McCain is elected we will get to hear about it for another 8 years.

Most Democrats and all Liberals believe that they know better than their elders. Most not all Democrats that I am around believe that their parents are out of touch when it comes to Politics.  They believe that they themselves no more because their education was different then their parents.  They think “how possibly could their parents know anything because when they went to school it was so long ago, today is different, and only the younger generation would understand”. These people do not understand that the life that they live today is because of the sacrifices that their parents and their elders made throughout the United States history.  Nothing was given to them like todays generation.  they had to earn it.

All they go by is the Liberal Professors that taught them and the liberal news and news papers they see and read. They won’t try to get information on their own because they would rather be fed it than having to go get it. After all if it comes from one of the big three news agencies it has to be true, right? If it comes from a Union Liberal Professor who lives in his or her own little world telling everyone how and what they should do because they are too scared to go out into the real world and do it.  That also has to be correct, right? 

Obama has a great voice and can read a good speech. A great voice makes you sound intelligent and confident. Any one can read a speech but it takes someone with a great voice to make you believe it. A great voice will get you far in life. Just look at Obama’s life.  So far when it comes to his political career, he went from Community organizer to Illinois Senate for eight years to United States Senate for the last 4 years to the Democratic nominee for the President of the United States of America. Does that sound a little quick to be trying to get the most important job in the World? Well it is fast, and it is all because he has a great voice and can read a speech well. Having a great voice helps with a lot of jobs out there. For instance a Car Salesman has to have a good voice as well. That is exactly what Obama is doing.  He is selling the United States a great big LEMON.     

Any job that you apply for requires experience. No matter what job it is it will usually go to the person with the most experience. You can not get experience any other way then to put in your time learning from someone else and along the way figure things out on your own. Experience is a lot like respect. You can’t ask for it. You can’t demand it. All you can do is be the best that you can and hope that you can learn along the way. If you do this you will gain experience as well as respect. 

I have said in past writings that a Republican can care less what color or sex someone is. It is all about whom that person is, what do they stand for, and what have they done to deserve the most important position in the World.  Right now Obama shouldn’t even be in the same room with McCain.  Unfortunately we are in a generation that says “what about me” and think they know more than their elders. They did it when they protested the past wars. But then they had nowhere to go so they went to the schools to teach the “what about me” dialogue to future generations.

There is a reason that when most people get older they tend to shift their political views towards Republican.  They start to find out there really are things that are either right or wrong.  They start to see that a lot of the Benefits and programs that are out there to help the needy are being used by different groups for their own uses because they know how to abuse the system.  They start to worry less about themselves and more about their children and grand children.  Do you think it is a coincidence that they come to this conclusion and become republican or would you call it experience?

Ronald Reagan was one of the best Presidents this country ever had. He was also the oldest at 68. John McCain will be 69 years young. Unlike Ronald Reagan, John McCain’s Mother comes to the rallies and the speeches.  Yes I said his mother. She is 95 years old and looks like she can take pretty good care of herself. McCain served this country; he was tortured for 5 ½ years in a POW camp and then served in the US Senate for over 20 years. I am not worried about McCain’s i think he can take care of himself at any age. 

So think about it America. You can have a Candidate with a lifetime spent serving this great country of ours seeing and experiencing all aspects of serving this great country. Or you can have a Candidate who just started to serve this great country of ours. They both are politicians. McCain can walk the walk and talk the talk when it comes to working with both sides of the isle to make the difference and has proof to say so. Obama can talk the talk about change but his walk is the same walk the Democrats have been doing since Jimmy Carter.

We all know which  President came in to clean up the mess that Jimmy Carter left, right?

          The “American Way” used to be a phrase that Americans were proud of. Now I think the only ones that are proud of it are the Republicans. Democrats are embarrassed of that phrase and would rather live their lives by saying the “Global way”.

Obama definitely is of this thought. In a speech that he gave a couple of weeks ago he actually said that “Americans can’t go around eating as much as they want, driving SUV’s, and setting their thermostat at 72 and think that the rest of the world would be happy with that”. He also goes on to say that “Americans make up 5% of the world’s population and use 26% of the world’s energy”. In the second statement he is right. But what he doesn’t tell you is that comparing numbers we are not alone. In fact Canada is #1 in the world when it comes to what country uses the most of the world’s energy per capita.  (www.SEI:energy facts.com)  90% of United States residential use is for using appliances, heating, cooling, and water heaters. Is this bad, is this wrong, I don’t think so. Two billion of the world’s population doesn’t even have electricity. Are we supposed to not only get their opinion but do something about getting them electricity as well?

The Democrats like to tell you that in the global community we are not very popular. Our popularity in the world is just like it is in America. The liberals of the world don’t like America just like the left of America are embarrassed of America. The conservatives of the world likes America as much as the conservatives of America is proud of America. The problem is the news media is left or liberal or their new title which is progressive. So they only tell one message. Just because somewhere in the world someone is having a hardship does not mean that my life can’t be happy and that it is wrong to want and dream things that may very well be unattainable but some dreams do come true. 

I think that it is pretty impressive that America with 300 million people can compete with a country like China that has four times more people in it. What else I think is impressive is that the average income per capita is 38,000 in America and the rest of the world is 5,300. So not only do we use a lot of energy we also have the best living conditions and are fortunate enough to get paid doing it. 

There is a reason that it is called the “The American Way” because we are the only country in the world where we have the opportunities that we have. I have friends in Australia and when we visit and talk, one of their favorite comments is “Only in America”. Whether it is good or bad it is said all around the world. America is the place where people from other countries if given the chance would come and live because of the opportunities. America does 1000 times more good in this world than it does bad. People around the world who aren’t liberal know this and are grateful for it.

If I want to have my house at 72 there should be one concern, can I afford it? It should not be that I need to keep my thermostat at 90 because I need to conserve energy because some where in the world someone does not even have AC. The government needs to keep their nose out of my business when it comes to my thermostat, car I drive, food I eat and where I send my kids to school. The government and the global community should stay out of it. I don’t want any President to have to ask any country anything when it comes to what I drive or eat or set my AC for. I want my President to think of  the United States first and the other countries second. There is a reason we lead the world in most decisions and countries look to us for advice, aid, and as an example for where they want to go as a country.

I am proud of this country. I believe in the “American way”. I am fortunate to be born in a country with the opportunities that America and our founding fathers fought for. There is a reason that America can compete with China that has four times more people. The reason is America does not suppress their people. Americans know that the sky is limit and know that if they work harder they will make more money. Americans know that there is nothing that can’t be achieved if you want it bad enough. America is number one in the world because it kept America first. America is respected around the world because of the good it does. As soon as America starts checking with the other countries for what it does is when America shows how weak it is. The other countries aren’t stupid and will jump on that because they would love to have what we have and can’t wait to get it.

I run a business. I am always listening to any ideas any one has. I am always asking questions. Always reading and taking more classes to better my knowledge so that I can make this company the best. My daily decisions are based on two things. What is the right thing to do and what will make this company number one. For me to achieve this goal I don’t ask my competitors what I should do. This company did not get to where it is today based on what my competitors think I should do. I can only lead by example and I expect my country to do the same. Always do its best and never keep trying to make America the best country in the world which it currently is. 

Obama and the Democrats need to realize that they live in the greatest country in the world. They also need to realize how it got there and it wasn’t by asking the Global community what it thought.
