9 days...and counting

I've never wanted to use my blog as a political forum. As you can see from the name, it has nothing to do with politics and it was created solely for Matthew's and my families to keep up to date with Finley. However, it is because of Finley that I now have to speak out and make sure that I reach as many people as possible to hopefully educate on some pretty scary issues arising this election.

I hate politics. I hate the media and I have come to realize that it is mostly because of the media that I hate politics. We would all have to agree that the media is so one-sided that it's no wonder Obama/Biden are doing well. I think we can clearly see what happens when Biden is asked the 'hard' questions. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yjX8wQPMADk&NR=1. We can also see that he is surprised someone in the media would dare to ask him the hard questions. He laughs in this clip...not because something is really funny, but because he's nervous. The Obama campaign then refused anymore interviews with that station.

People are no longer thinking for themselves and fact checking. If all you have done is watch the evening news, Obama/Biden would seem like some really nice folks willing and able to give them some much-needed tax breaks. Why is it that the media will not cover anything negative on Obama/Biden? Does the media not know that in Cook County (Chicago), they have a sales tax of 10.25%? Their public schools are also the worst in the country...and this is where Obama is from? Sadly, money is the main reason that people are voting for Obama and many of those people are Christians. Christians have strayed so far from Christian values that they too are in need of looking to who 'says' they will give them more money for the main reason of their voting choice. We no longer buy only what we can afford. We buy what we want, when we want it and in the back of our minds we know the government is there to bail us out if we need it.

Does the media even know what partial birth abortion is and what it entails? They should show this clip http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s_W75zh1j2I&feature=related. This is actually a very 'benign' clip compared to what is out there. Get on youtube.com and search for partial birth abortion. There are clips of them live. Maybe these clips are what need to be shown to everyone voting for Barack Obama since he is in favor of abortion and partial birth abortion. He says that he trusts women to make this decision with their family, doctors and clergy. When did God hand over that right to make the decision of a baby's innocent life? Is there any defense for infanticide? Check this out. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BYRpIf2F9NA&feature=related.

Can the media not see that Universal health care does not work? Hawaii just dropped their child universal health care program because of deficits.

"People who were already able to afford health care began to stop paying for it so they could get it for free," said Dr. Kenny Fink, the administrator for Med-QUEST at the Department of Human Services. Matthew, my husband, went to college in Canada. He got an ingrown toenail and called to make an appointment with a doctor. He was going to have to wait 2 weeks for an appointment and then wait for a separate appointment for surgery. He called to his PCP in Fargo and was back in the US the next day for his appointment and had the surgery needed. His friend had gallstones and needed his gallbladder removed. He too was on a waiting list of 2 weeks for an operation. I worked for a PA whose mother lived in Canada. Her diet consisted of lettuce for 1-1/2 weeks while she waited to have her gallbladder removed. This PA also said that she never left her mother's side while she recovered for fear of infection because with universal health care, waiting lists go up and doctor and nurse pay goes down which equals a decrease in quality.

Regarding Obama's relationship with Jeremiah Wright, he was a member of Jeremiah Wright's church for 20 years. Jeremiah Wright officiated Obama's wedding and baptized his two daughters. I'm glad that Sarah Palin has something to say about Obama's former pastor since McCain has stated that he wouldn't touch that subject. Only when video was released of Jeremiah Wright making anti-American and anti-Semitic statements did Barack Obama denounced his pastor. Are you telling me that after 20 years in his church that he had never heard Jeremiah Wright speak out like this? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vdJB-qkfUHc&feature=related. There are many videos like this just on youtube.com.

This brings us to William Ayers, co-founder of Weather Underground terrorist group. Barack Obama's advisers said that they were "certainly friendly". They served on a charity board together and worked together on various projects in Chicago. Bill Ayers hosted one of Barack Obama's first fundraisers in his own living room. McCain spokesman Tucker Bounds asks a good question. "If Obama didn't know in 1995 about the bombings Ayers was responsible for, when did he find out -- because Obama was promoting Ayers' book in 1997, serving on boards with him until 2002, and trading e-mails and phone calls with him as recently as 2005." Ayers has said he doesn't regret his Weather Underground activities.

This really is just the tip of the iceberg with regard to Barack Obama. I urge you to check out these sites I've listed and then get on the Internet and do your own research. It's so much more powerful when you see and hear the story firsthand.
