According to The Messiah if we don’t bend that knee to the government, and let IT decide who is the neediest, then that’s exactly what we are.
“The point is, though, that — and it’s not just charity, it’s not just that I want to help the middle class and working people who are trying to get in the middle class — it’s that when we actually make sure that everybody’s got a shot – when young people can all go to college, when everybody’s got decent health care, when everybody’s got a little more money at the end of the month – then guess what? Everybody starts spending that money, they decide maybe I can afford a new car, maybe I can afford a computer for my child. They can buy the products and services that businesses are selling and everybody is better off. All boats rise. That’s what happened in the 1990s, that’s what we need to restore. And that’s what I’m gonna do as president of the United States of America.
“John McCain and Sarah Palin they call this socialistic,” Obama continued. “You know I don’t know when, when they decided they wanted to make a virtue out of selfishness.”
You know, in my 20+ voting years, I don’t think I’ve ever seen a politician treat his constituency with this much contempt. Sure we talk about them all being dishonest cash-grabbers, but you gotta give this boy credit, he’s making his intentions VERY CLEAR from the outset, and yet still has actual followers.
All you who vote for him…I’m telling you right now that this is on you. For every liberty this lifelong-government-teat-suckler steps on, I am holding YOU personally responsible.
Just letting you know.

I couldn’t even give a friendly neighbor wave this morning to the idiot across the street with the Obama sign in his yard. That asshole wants to raise my taxes. Our small engineering firm will have far less money to reinvest (being taxed at 49.2% and all), which means no new hires, and inevitable cut-backs. I blame my two neighbors: Don’t wave to me when you’re putting your trash cans out at the curb, you socialist pricks.

@Redhead Infidel: We have a McCain/Palin sign in our window (fucking HOA whinges if they’re in the yard), so I fully expect some unpleasantness tomorrow night. The Obama signs are in the yards of the renters, and those who do not speak English.
