Don’t Believe the Lies

I’m very tired of seeing all these ads and one-liners in the press about how Obama and the Democrats are tax and spend and will raise your taxes. If you would look at the tax plans for both candidates, it’s clear that Obama’s benefits 90% of Americans where as McCain’s favors the richest of the rich. He still believes in the trickle-down theory of economics, which has been disproved over and over. Just look at the last 8 years. Those are the same tax policies that Bush implemented. McCain even talks about how Palin stands up to wasteful spending, yet hired a lobbyist to get millions of dollars in earmarks for her town, some that even John McCain opposed in the Senate. She claims she was against the infamous “bridge to nowhere” yet she was for it, accepted money for it, before she was against it. She secured money for a multi-million sports complex when her town didn’t even have proper sewage treatments. On top of that, the complex went well over budget and the people of her town wound up paying more and more for it. That, my friends, is tax and spend. Don’t believe the lies put out by Rove and the Republican party.

I would also like to ask you all to donate to the Obama campaign. If you really want real change, you need to fight back against the smears and lies put out by the campaign. Unfortunately, the most successful way to do this is via TV ads, which costs a lot of money. So, whatever you can give to the campaign, $5, $10, $100, whatever you can, please donate. Be a part of history.
