Well good for you Nick,in ten years when your kids are paying the dues, I hope you can look back and say it was worth it!

I just heard him say on CNN that he has no plans to raise taxes on corporations. I guess it will only be families.

I'm not voting for a socialist for President, I'm voting libertarian. Good luck with your vote for a moderate liberal.

I know, that $850 billion dollar bailout scam that McBush was a party to, along with Crock Obama, will enrage my children. I am sure that I will have to justify the failure of my one vote for Bob Barr to counter the millions of votes for one of the two incompetent big party shills who created and continue to exploit this mess.

A vote for anyone besides McCain is a vote for Obama.

Hey John,

All the time I was reading your letter I was wondering why you ever became a home inspector. I got my answer when I got to the end.

QUOTE:
You see, Mr. Obama, I'm the guy you intend to raise taxes on. I'm the guy who has spent 25 years toiling and sweating, fretting and fighting, stressing and risking,to build a business and get ahead. I'm the guy who has been on the very edge of bankruptcy more than a dozen times over the last 25 years, and all the while creating more and more jobs for East Texans who didn't want to take a risk, and would not demand from themselves what I have demanded from myself.

I'm the guy you characterize as "the Americans who can afford it the most" that you believe should be taxed more to provide income redistribution "to spread the wealth" to those who have never toiled, sweated, fretted, fought, stressed, or risked anything.

You want to characterize me as someone who has enjoyed a life of privilege and who needs to pay a higher percentage of my income than those who have bought into your entitlement culture.

I resent you, Mr. Obama, as I resent all who want to use class warfare as a tool to advance their political career. What's worse, each year more Americans buy into your liberal entitlement culture, and turn to the government for their hope of a better life instead of themselves.


Liberals are succeeding through more than 40 years of collaborative effort between the predominant liberal media, and liberal indoctrination programs in the public school systems across our land.
  • What is so terribly sad about this is this. America was made great by people who embraced the one-time American culture of self reliance, self motivation, self determination, self discipline, personal betterment, hard work, risk taking.
  • A culture built around the concept that success was in reach of every able bodied American who would strive for it.
  • Each year that less Americans embrace that culture, we all descend together.
  • We descend down the socialist path that has brought country after country ultimately to bitter and unremarkable states.
If you and your liberal comrades in the media and school systems would spend half as much effort cultivating a culture of can-do across America as you do cultivating your entitlement culture, we could see Americans at large embracing the conviction that they can elevate themselves through personal betterment, personal achievement, and self reliance.
  • You see, when people embrace such ideals, they act on them.
  • When people act on such ideals, they succeed.
All of America could find herself elevating instead of deteriorating. But that would eliminate the need for liberal politicians, wouldn't it, Mr. Obama?

The country would not need you if the country was convinced that problem solving was best left with individuals instead of the government.

You and all your liberal comrades have got a vested interested in creating a dependent class in our country. It is the very business of liberals to create an ever expanding dependence on government.

What's remarkable is that you, who have never produced a job in your life, are going to tax me to take more of my money and give it to people who wouldn't need my money if they would get off their entitlement mentality asses and apply themselves at work, demand more from themselves, and quit looking to liberal politicians to raise their station in life.

You see, I know because I've had them work for me before. Hundreds of them over these 25 years. People who simply will not show up to work on time.
People who just will not work 5 days in a week, much less, 6 days. People always looking for a way to put less effort out. People who actually tell me that they would do more if I just would first pay them more.

People who take off work to sit in government offices to apply to get free government handouts (gee, I wonder how things would have turned out for them if they had spent that time earning money and pleasing their employer?).You see, all of this comes from your entitlement mentality culture.

It seems like a well driller with a PUBLIC school education would have a better understanding on how the economy really works. Oh well for a Texican he is practically Keynes.

Perhaps he should send a letter to Grandpa and Caribou Barbie, and ask how that savings and loan thingy worked out a while back? Or perhaps why the Government in Alaska takes all that oil money away and hands it out to the regular folks?

The free ride is over, Regonomics did not work and eventually we have to pay off our debt. 40 or so odd years of Republican bs economic policy has to end. No more free lunch kids, sorry to break it to you.

So you have come to your senses and are going to vote for McCain after all. Great!
