24 Hours To Go or My Election Rant

Dear Fellow Americans:

We have 24 hours until we find out whether or not the American people are as naive and stupid as I think they are. Yeah, I said it. We live in a country full of co-dependent wussies who expect someone else to take care of them. Thanks to the Baby Boom generation and their sense of entitlement, we are posed to elect an unqualified Socialist as president. Why? Because the American people are lazy and apathetic. They think that they "deserve," free health care; they "deserve" money from the "rich" because they weren't ambitious enough to get off the couch; they "deserve," someone to pick up the pieces when they make a bad decision.

This country wasn't founded on the idea that the government will take care of you. It was founded on the idea that every person should have the opportunity to succeed regardless of social status or religious background. People came to America to fulfill their dreams of prosperity, not because they thought Uncle Sam would take care of them. People are still trying to get into this country for one reason. They know here they will have a chance to succeed.

However, we are now poised to elect someone who is against those ideals. Someone who doesn't encourage independence but dependence on government handouts. Obama isn't what this country was founded on and his election means we will turn our backs on our heritage.

Many of you will be voting for him solely because of his race. You believe that electing a black man to the presidency will somehow absolve your white guilt. I feel no white guilt. I had nothing to do with slavery or Jim Crow. We fought a war in which a half million Americans died to set slaves free. We passed Civil Rights legislation in the 1960s to level the playing field. Our debt has been paid. If this is the reason for your vote, shame on you. You aren't looking at Obama has a man but as a BLACK man. That makes you a racist. Period.

Tomorrow I will be voting for McCain/Palin. Not because I agree with everything they say or believe in. I find people who expect candidates to be EXACTLY like them to be naive. I don't like Sarah Palin's view on birth control. I don't like John McCain's, "Can't we all just get along," shtick. However, I think these two are the safer choice. I know that has CIC, John McCain will protect my boyfriend. I can't say the same about Obama. Except as a brief stint as Senator, Obama has never served this country. McCain has and has suffered for America. He knows what it's like to be at war. Obama does not.

Should Obama win, the American people will get exactly what they want and it will ruin this great country. Guilt is no reason to elect someone to the most powerful position on Earth. Neither is fear or anger. Vote your common sense.

MCCAIN/PALIN
