Surely One so blessed must cast His eyes on the miscreant sons of Adam, his heart saddened by our soiled souls. Nay, he will touch the shoulder of the apostle David and sayeth ” though you deny me through your serpentine ways yet upon this rock I will build my [and Mother Michelle's ]Presidency.
“Then will sinners know what hell can come to earth and bow before the Treasury”.

Can we afford “This is not the person I knew” in the White House? If he is this faulty in his judgment now, what can he potentially do with the day to day of running a country? Is he going to sign agreements with foreign dignitaries only to find out later that the nation will pay dearly for his stupidity?

He could sign away this nation’s sovereignty before he knew that’s what he did, with judgment like his.

And that’s only if he’s totally innocent in these dealings, of which I have my doubts considering what he has told his supporters to do to get him elected.

Doesn’t that resolve everything? Simple, right?

On, you mean there are some other consequences to doing that? Who’da thunk it?

(More specifically the former than the latter; I still believe that living wage and minimum wage proposals are price controls that are every bit as insidious as rent control, but we can be free to disagree on that one… after all, I’m sure quite a few of the regulars here would not go as far as to back me up on that.)

What I intend to see is a nation run on ideas, not on platitudes. On action and determination, not on abstract concepts (regardless of the loftiness of their intents). I’m not convinced that McCain will necessarily bring those things to the Oval Office, but I am convinced that Obama brings to the table exactly what I feel isn’t needed in government.

And, you get paid what you deserve. A living wage is a socialist concept to pay undeserving workers higher wages.

They will pay a price in this election.

Will we as a nation wake up before the election to vote the right way, or after the election to? smell the ashes. I mean don?t get me wrong I?d love to see some fireworks but on a second thought I would rather settle for a job and a living wage.

There’s enough plausible deniability in this to insulate the Obama campaign regardless of whether it is true or not or how suspiciously the players act. This is drawing us close to the level the leftoshpere has been for a while – that of tinfoil-hatted conspiracy theorists. While this looks tasty and smells like red meat, it’s not, and it will only hurt our reputation when we really DO have something to hang around Obama’s neck. Let’s just leave this one alone, okay?
