Do you really believe that will help our economy? If so, please give me just one example of a country that has ever implemented this type of policy successfully.<BR/><BR/>There is no doubt in my mind that Obama's plans have contributed to the nearly 50% decline on Wall Street.ganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09276705225628802664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1364633220941829678.post-78831229152299742022008-10-27T21:18:00.000-04:002008-10-27T21:18:00.000-04:00Josh,Thanks for your comments, although I am not s...Josh,<BR/><BR/>Thanks for your comments, although I am not sure about what emails you are referring to since I seldom forward anything sent to me. I get a lot, I forward very little. And I, like you, would like to feel good about the state of politics in the United States, however, feeling good has to come with real knowledge, not rhetoric. I can burn your house to the ground and point out to you how warm the fire will be and we can all roast marshmallows, but your house will still be gone. It is one thing to talk a good story. It is quite another thing to make the story come true. Obama's whole career up to now does not jibe with his rhetoric. Once he is in office, it will be too late to do anything about that difference between rhetoric and fact, at least for the next four years.<BR/><BR/>When you vote for Obama, remember the names that go with that: Ayres (the terrorist), Rezko (the convicted felon), Wright (God damn America) and the happy trio from Fannie Mae (the 288 million dollar men) Raines, Howard and Johnson.<BR/><BR/>Take care and God blessAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1364633220941829678.post-44502764148382648632008-10-27T16:25:00.000-04:002008-10-27T16:25:00.000-04:00I think you should stop reading all of those crazy...I think you should stop reading all of those crazy e-mail forwards you get and inevitably send.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for your honesty Brian. You certainly leave no doubt as to where you'll cast your vote next Tuesday.<BR/><BR/>Your blog, however, seems to echo the voice that will probably win Obama this election. People want to be able to feel good about the state of politics in America, and, like him or not, Obama's making them believe. I would like to suggest that you write your next blog using only positive statements (no sarcasm allowed).<BR/><BR/>JoshJosh Macyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08880313718260469617noreply@blogger.com
