Wow, I hate being right all the time......

In response to my letter in 9-10 Rushville Republican:

I disagree with most everything you wrote. Having said that, your enthusiasm, and the obvious extent to which you have informed yourself, are totally inspiring. Our country needs more people like you.

It'll be a cold day in Hades when I want to see this socialist Obama get elected. He's just a smooth talker with socialist views. And why would you speak of "choice" of letting the unborn live or not as if that is the norm? Yes let's do judge by the content of chadacter of these candidates but when that happens the McCain/Palin ticket will surely win big!

You do realize that Obama is a Socialist right? He wants to increase the tax burden on Americans so that he can fund his pet projects like Universal (Socialized) Healthcare. He has ZERO executive experience. McCain isn't much better, but like most recent elections its a case of voting for the lesser of two evils, and Obama is most assuredly the greater evil.

We get it Bonnie. You're supporting BHO and there's no amount of facts or truth that will change your mind. Bonnie, I don't care (well actually I do, but...) whether BHO is Muslim, Hindu, Buddhist, Jewish, or Christian. What I do care about is that he is the most unqualified candidate for POTUS that this country has seen in over 100 years. I do care that he sat in a pew for over 20 years and listened to the racist, hate filled frothings of one of the most radical, anti-American "pastors" in this country today. I do care that he has "friendly" relationship with an admitted, unrepentant terrorist (William Ayers) who detonated bombs in the US Capitol and Pentagon among others and today, "Wishes that he would have done more." I do care that he is the most liberal voting senator in Congress today. I do care that he has no (none, zilch, zero) executive experience. I do care that there's nothing in his resume or past experiences that in any way qualifies him to command the most powerful military in the world today. I do care that his wife said that, "For the first time in her adult life she was proud of her country"...after her husband started winning a few primary elections. (Bonnie, I've been proud of my country every day of my life.) I do care that the most significant piece of legislation that he ever attached his name to would deny lifesaving medical treatment to a baby that survived a late term abortion...which he also supports. i do care that he said that he didn't want his daughters to be "punished" with a baby if they chose to have pre-marital sex. I do care that he thinks that he has the right to take my money from me (and yours from you Bonnie) and redistribute it as he sees fit. I do care that he will raise my taxes to pay for all of his socialist, entitlement programs. I do care that he won't permit drilling off of our coasts or in the ANWR but prefers to leave us forever dependent on foreign oil. I do care that BHO voted "No" on establishing English as the official language of the United States government. I do care that he supports open borders, wants to give driver's licenses to illegal immigrants, wants to extend Medicare and welfare benefits to illegal immigrants and also Social Security...our Social Security benefits Bonnie...yours and mine. I do care that while in the Illinois State Legislature he voted "Present" approximately 130 times rather than stick his neck out and cast a "Yea" or "Nay" vote on something that might come back to haunt his political career later. Bonnie, I can go on for longer than anyone wants to sit here and read. I admire you for sticking by and supporting your candidate even when there is so much about him that should make you want to turn around and run..far away. He's proven himself to be the same 'ol same 'ol...a political hack who will do or say anything to get elected. But, as committed and supportive as you are, I'm just as committed to making sure that he never sees the inside of the Oval Office. He's unfit. The material is out there Bonnie. The books are on the shelf. The research has been done for you. It's not opinion, its verified, proven research supported by fact. Don't take my word for it. (I wouldn't expect you to.) Pick up a copy of Jerome Corsi's book "The Obama Nation." Pick up "The Case Against Obama: The Unlikely Rise and Unexamined Agenda of the Media's Favorite Candidate" by David Freddoso. Open yourself up to the possibility that you're spurrin' the wrong horse. There are many, many things that I probably will disagree with John McCain about, but the one thing that i will never question about John McCain, is his deep, unfailing love for this country and his lifetime of devoted service to it. I'll see you in November.

One more thing Bonnie, I see your son walking to and from school sporting his Obama t-shirt. I really think that it’s unfair to use your middle school-aged son to promote your adult political views. It might perpetuate the "rock star" status of BHO in the halls of BRMS, but I seriously doubt that, if questioned about his choice of candidate by someone like me, he's prepared to weather the storm or put up an argument. Personally, I'd like to see politics left to those of us of voting age and the kids left to be kids for just as long as they can possibly hold out. They'll be thrust into life soon enough. Let’s not rush it. Just my $.02
