Ok, I love my dogs, very much. I'm sure everyone posting here
does, and this loving & caring naturally extends to other animals.
Barack Obama was elected to the Illinois State Senate in 1996, To the
US Senate in 2004. He lives in Hyde Park, an affluent area in
Chicago. A mile west or south of his residence is for all practical
purposes a war zone, Chicago is running at a pace to break the record for
murders in one year. What has he done about this in all these
years? Apparently nothing.
While I do care about the welfare of all animals, and shooting wild
animals from an airplane for no good reason is bad, shooting people from a
moving car is worse. For all the brilliantly stated ideas this man comes
up with, I see no action, not for years. I have a hard time getting too
worked up about animals when my family & myself are at risk due to the
"leadership" in this area.
Perhaps because I live & work
with this situation every day my view is a little slanted. Perhaps these folks have a different way of
sorting things out than most members here are accustomed to. Here’s a link to a nice article on how many
of these folks think; http://www.philly.com/dailynews/opinion/20080902_Fatimah_Ali__We_need_Obama__not_4_more_years_of_George_Bush.html
“If McCain wins, look for a full-fledged race and class war, fueled by a
deflated and depressed country, soaring crime, homelessness - and
hopelessness!”
Full fledged race & class war, great.
So I should be threatened into voting for someone? No.
I have heard more than a few “disadvantaged persons” talk about all the
free stuff they will get on election day.
Around here, a sports team wins a championship, they loot, they lose a
championship, they loot. A man of
color, winning or losing the election for POTUS is huge, way beyond a
basketball team.
This is how third world countries
operate, not the USA I grew up in. I’m
staying home, with the doors locked on election day, and perhaps for some time
afterwards.
Flame away.
