America Didn't Want Issues



Okay, let's get something straight about this election. America didn't want issues. Despite as many on the left like to argue, the fact is, the an overwhelming majority of Americans don't understand them to begin with.

Obama's electorate wanted a good looking, articulate lawyer to fill a suit. Sure, they wanted change from the direction this country is in now, but most people don't have a clue as to what or how that is accomplished. If they did, we'd already have all the answers and the market wouldn't be in turmoil. I mean, if the electorate really knew the workings of the market, they'd be self-made Warren Buffets.

Obama's campaign was comprised of rhetoric and catch-phrases. When he/they did speak about issues, he fell flat on his face (see Joe the Plumber, Joe Biden urging us to gird our loins). It was certainly effect enough though. With no experience or a position to stand on, it was like trying to play catch with a handful of sand. And if anyone was lucky enough to pin him down on an issue, they were branded a racist, mean-spirited or ignorant. Meanwhile, the vermin on the left used they're stooges to attack Palin and her family on grounds that had nothing to do with politics and would be consider libelous and slanderous if done to any other American. Obama's never denounced that.

So, folks, if it makes you feel good to tell yourself that Obama won over the voter's on key issues such as hope, change and good-looks, so be it. But much like not being proud of what Obama really stands for and coming out and defending it (socialism) i doubt that anyone will be happy to own up to the fact issues were really tertiary at best.

AFC Endorses McCain. Obama's Platform Plagiarized From Socialist Party USA

Sen. John McCain is a man who has devoted his life to this country, had the experience to keep America safe and is the one candidate who will not radically change America into a third-world welfare state. It is for this reason, among many others, that The Flying Circus overwhelmingly endorses the McCain/Palin ticket in the 2008 election.

I know many of you out there have been waiting to cast your ballots in baited breath, holding off to see which way you should vote pending AFC's endorsement. On the issues, Barack Obama is flat out scary. His platform not only is radical, it is also unoriginal and plagiarized from the Socialist Party USA candidate Brian Moore's website:

On Iraq:
Socialist Party USA Platform
"Stop The War in Iraq and Afghanistan and bring the American troops and reconstruction companies home immediately."

Barack Obama's Platform
"Immediately upon taking office, Obama will give his Secretary of Defense and military commanders a new mission in Iraq: ending the war."

On Health Care:
Socialist Party USA Platform
"Implement a national health care system to include comprehensive health, dental and mental health care for all residents, foreign and domestic."

Barack Obama's Platform
"Obama and Biden will require coverage of preventive services, including cancer screenings"

On Defense:
Socialist Party USA Platform
"Call for immediate 50% cut in the military budget, with additional 50% over the next 10 years"

Barack Obama's Platform
"Call for the immediate cut of 25% in the defense budget."

On Labor:
Socialist Party USA Platform
"Mandate right of employees for access to chose labor union representation to assure fair salaries and benefits"

Barack Obama's Platform
"Obama and Biden will strengthen the ability of workers to organize unions. He will fight for passage of the Employee Free Choice Act."

On Wages:
Socialist Party USA Platform
"Initiate a guaranteed income for all American families, working or not, at a level of $35,000 per year per adult (2008 Cost of Living levels)"
Barack Obama's Platform
"Barack Obama and Joe Biden will raise the minimum wage, index it to inflation and increase the Earned Income Tax Credit to make sure that full-time workers earn a living wage that allows them to raise their families and pay for basic needs."

On Abortion:
Socialist Party USA Platform
"Support a woman's right to choose in matters of abortion; and oppose all restrictions on access to abortion."
Barack Obama's Platform
"However, he has been a consistent champion of reproductive choice and will make preserving women's rights under Roe v. Wade a priority as President. He opposes any constitutional amendment to overturn the Supreme Court's decision in that case."

On Civil Rights:
Socialist Party USA Platform:
1) end all restrictions in law and work place, marriages and sodomy laws
2) prevent student violence and discrimination in schools and all of society
3) federal ban on all forms of job discrimination, on the basis of race, sexual orientation, gender or economic status
4) oppose English as the only official language
Barack Obama's Platform:
"Obama and Biden will work to overturn the Supreme Court's recent ruling that curtails women’s and racial minorities' ability to challenge pay discrimination. They will also pass the Fair Pay Act to ensure that women receive equal pay for equal work and the Employment Non-Discrimination Act to prohibit discrimination based on sexual orientation or gender identity or expression."

Not only has the Obama campaign taken credit for the work of the Socialist Party USA without giving recognition, Obama has also helped to destroy Al Gore's Internet. Obama has paid hundreds of thousands of dollars to have individuals sit behind a computer all day and attack people who do not support Obama and label them as racists or fear mongerers. These Obama-bots, Obama-trons and probable supporters of beastiality have absolutely ruined Yahoo News with their incessant buzzing of bird-cage liners such as the Huffington Post and DailyKos's articles.

The Obama-led left has greatly fractured America to the point where any chance at unity will never happen. His supporters have ensured that this by making this campaign one personal attack after another on McCain, Palin and anyone who isn't a card-carrying member of the Socialist Party.

Therefore, among many reasons, the AFC is throwing its heavy leverage behind the McCain campaign, a move that will surely build enough momentum to defend this great country from the overt Socialists that surround us.

On Budget and Taxes, Obama is a 'No Vote'

Senator Barack Obama, who has been running his whole election bid on the economy has a very empty voting record when it comes voting on the budget and taxes. To go along with his lack of experience to begin with, his record on not even voting on his most important issues is very troubling to those who think he might be better on the economy.

Acording to Project Vote Smart, Obama has a staggeringly bad record of even showing up to vote for important budget and tax bills. Over 70% of the time, Obama failed to vote at all. Among these votes were bills on the following issues important to our country:

09/17/2008Defense Authorizations Bill
S 3001
NV

Highlights:

- Provides a 3.9 percent basic pay increase for members of the armed forces (Sec. 601).

- Authorizes $153.55 billion for operations and maintenance

- Authorizes $124.5 billion for military personnel and contributions to the Medicare-Eligible Retiree Health Fund

07/31/2008Higher Education Act Amendments and Extensions
HR 4137
NV

Project Vote Smart's Synopsis:

Vote to pass a bill that makes changes to regulations regarding student costs for attending colleges, relationships between colleges and lenders, and student aid.

07/31/2008Consumer Product Safety Commission Bill
HR 4040
NV

Project Vote Smart's Synopsis:

Vote to adopt a conference report that increases funding for the Consumer Product Safety Commission and creates new consumer product safety standards.
