What will America look like as an Obama nation?
It is hard to really tell what position Senator Barack Obama actually takes because he seems to change his positions depending on each situation he finds himself in. For an example, and this is only one of many, let us look at his most recent speech to the America Israel Public Affairs Committee Obama changed his position on Iran and sanctions to garner votes.
During this same speech Obama waxed eloquently on an undivided Jerusalem as Israel’s capital city.
OBAMA: Any agreement with the Palestinian people must preserve Israel’s identity as a Jewish state, with secure, recognized, defensible borders, and Jerusalem will remain the capital of Israel, and it must remain undivided.
A day later on CNN’s The Situation Room Candy Crowley addressed this very issue about an undivided Jerusalem and Senator Obama answered:
Obviously it’s going to be up to the parties to negotiate a range of these issues, and Jerusalem will be part of those negotiations. My belief is that, as a practical matter, it would be very difficult to execute. And I think that it is smart for us to work through a system in which everybody has access to the extraordinary religious sites in Old Jerusalem, but that Israel has a legitimate claim on that city.
During this same speech Obama went from holding talks with Hezbollah and Iran to taking a strong stance against them. I am not sure if he is for or against these terror harboring entities but from his speech I guess we could say WHO KNOWS. The things we do know about Obama are startling in and of themselves.
His relationships, his judgments, his politics, his associations, all point toward a radical left wing liberal. Anti-Bush rhetoric is very evident in most of his “Change” speeches. It appears that all Obama has done is taken up the Liberal democrat torch of “ANTI-BUSH” all the time mantra. No matter what it is he is referring to “change” in the mind of this liberal is anything that Bush did has to be undone.
So let us look at some of the things President Bush has done shall we? First I would like to address the war on terrorism which from most established reports we are winning, yet to hear a liberal democrat speak it is still a lost cause and we need to pull out immediately. Stop sending our forces to Iraq on this ’misquided war’ to quote our illustrious Presidential candidate Obama. As far as Obama is concerned he sees “no good options left in this war”. What winning is not an option? As far as Obama and his left-winged cronies are concerned Iraq is a hot topic issue and they have to oppose it because Bush is for it.
Another one of Bush’s favorite things was his tax cuts that are set to expire in 2011. It would appear that Obama is in favor of higher taxes on everyone of us who benefited from the Bush tax cuts, which to a liberal mind means tax cuts for the rich. Well I am not rich by any means but I got a tax cut and it made my paycheck richer, but Obama and his ilk would like to take that away from me and you.
Obama recently told Fox News, “I would roll back the Bush tax cuts on the wealthiest Americans back to the level they were under Bill Clinton, when I don’t remember rich people feeling oppressed.”
A far better approach would be for the government to stop spending so much money and allow us to keep more of it to spend ourselves. Of course to a liberal mind that is an enigma to think that the average American can handle their finances better than the federal government can.
Another policy that George W. Bush is for is the ban of partial birth abortions. Yes you guessed it our “silver tongued devil” Obama supports the killing of innocent babies. His lovely wife Michelle penned a letter in 2004 in support of her husband and partial birth abortion as legitimate medicine. Obama stands with those who slaughter innocent life, whether they be abortionists or terrorists (Hezbollah, Hamas, Iran). He sees no difference in his defense of those who take innocent lives by force.
Here are just a few other positions Senator Barack Obama has taken:
He sponsored S.CON.RES.53: A concurrent resolution expressing the sense of Congress that any effort to impose photo identification requirements for voting should be rejected.
In 1999 he was the only Illinois State Senator to vote against a bill barring early release for (criminal) sex offenders.
He voted against filtering pornography on school and library computers and he voted for sex education for kindergarten children through the 5th grade.
Also, in 2001, he voted “present” on a bill to keep pornographic book and video stores and strip clubs from setting up within 1,000 feet of schools and churches.
And the list goes on:
· He voted no on notifying parents of minors who get out-of-state abortions.
· Supports affirmative action in Colleges and Government.
· In 2001 he questioned harsh penalties for drug dealing.
· Says he will deal with street level drug dealing as a minimum wage affair.
· Admitted marijuana and cocaine use in high school and in college.
· He is willing to meet, unconditionally with Fidel Castro, Hugo Chavez, Kim Jung Il and Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.
· Has said that one of his first goals after being elected would be to have a conference with all Muslim nations.
· Opposed the Patriot Act.
· First bill he signed that was passed was campaign finance reform.
· Voted No on prohibiting law suits against gun manufacturers.
· Supports universal health care.
· Voted Yes on providing habeas corpus for Guantanamo detainees.
· Supports extending welfare to illegal immigrants.
· Voted Yes on allowing illegal aliens to participate in Social Security.
· Wants to make the minimum wage a ’living wage’.
· Voted with Democratic Party 96 percent of 251 votes.
· Opposed to any efforts to Privatize Social Security and instead supports increasing the amount of tax paid.
· He voted No on repealing the Alternative Minimum Tax.
· He voted No on repealing the Death Tax.
· He wants to raise the Capital Gains Tax.
· Has never served in the military and has never visited Afghanistan, and hasn’t bothered to visit Iraq since Jan. of 2006.
Perhaps we can gain some understanding of Barack’s personal beliefs from the associations he makes for example:
Rezko and Auchi, Odinga, Ayers, The New Black Panther Party, La Raza, Farrakhan, Mr. Wright
In addition a former CIA intelligence officer maintains that Barack Obama and former Weather Underground honcho William Ayers funneled money to Professor Rashid Khalidi, a known terrorist sympathizer. I guess being a product of Chicago style politics all this is business as usual. Is this the “change” Mr. Obama proposes for the highest office of the USA? Bring in even more shady dealers and underhanded money schemes? The bible tells us with good reason that bad company corrupts good morals. Surely we are known by the company we keep? Except of course if you are Barack Hussein Obama.
Oh by the way did you know that one of the first appointees to vet vice presidential candidates is Eric Holder, former Clinton deputy attorney general responsible for the Clinton pardon of Marc Rich a fugitive from justice? Check this out if you still believe a vote for Obama is a vote for change.
I do not know about you but the kind of change I want to see in Washington is less corruption not more, less government intervention in business and free enterprise not more, less taxation not more, less pork barrel spending and special interest pandering and government earmarks not more. That is the “change” I am voting for and it is not Barack Obama.

Are you the one or should we look for someone else seems to be the big question this election year. As the Presidential candidates ponder their picks for running mates perhaps it is time we the people take stock of what choices we are presented with. Our current Presidential candidates leave many of us wondering if we should be seeking another because we are not sure exactly where these candidates stand on key issues. It is troublesome that when choosing a President this election cycle we are more interested in whom each chooses for a Vice-president than we are with the current Presidential front runner.
