What IF...
What if
it was McCain who
had questionable ties to terrorists &
terrorist organizations?
What if the LA Times had proof of this,
and refused to release and/or report on
it?
What if HE were allegedly born in
Hawaii, and the Governor sealed his records
until after the election?
What if He were editor of the Harvard
Review, yet none of his editorials or
opinions are now available for
scrutiny?
What if he preached "spread the wealth"
yet had a brother in Kenya living off of
less that $1 per month, and an Aunt in
Boston living in the projects?
What if the president of Kenya sealed
off any records about McCain and his family
until after the elections?
What if McCain broke his promise on
funding his campaign, out spending His two
predecessors combined?
What if McCain was a proponent of
the so-called "fairness doctrine", then
bought air time on all the major networks
for a 1/2 hour infomercial, without
inviting his opponent(s) to have equal
time; out of fairness, of course?
What if an average "Joe American"
(plumber, carpenter, etc.) were vetted more
that McCain, simply for asking the
candidate a question? (the poor guy had his
life ripped open for simply asking how
Obama's tax proposals might affect him.)
This from a guy who won't even let us
verify his birth credentials?
What if McCain's pastor, (who married
him, and blessed his children, clearly
demonstrating an ongoing if not intimate
relationship) preached hate and
diviseveness for over twenty years, and
McCain said when pressed about their
relationship, 'he didn't know the man?' (I
wonder if Obama denied Rev. Wright 3X
before the rooster crowed?)
What if McCain described the US
Constitution as an "imperfect (flawed)
document"?
What if McCain were the Socialist?
What if, instead of wrecking planes,
McCain just wrecked the economy? (this
mortgage mess is nothing more than the
results of liberals forcing banks to lend
money to otherwise unqualified 'borrowers'
in an attempt at social engineering. I
know, because I was in the mortgage
industry!)
The bottom line is this; I cannot
and will not vote for a socialist. I do not
mean this as a pejorative; that is simply
what the man is. As a student of history, I
cannot find a single incident where
socialism has worked to elevate the
condition of mankind; in fact, if history
teaches us anything, it is that generally
the exact opposite is true!
That is why I will not vote for a
socialist. Not based upon where he/she went
to school, who they are or were married to,
or any other false measuring sticks.
I want to know if they are a person of
faith, (one cannot do that job alone), do
they believe in the constitution, and do
they believe that the federal government
ought to be as small and un-intrusive into
citizens lives as possible.
I want to know if they have respect for
states rights, and individual rights, and
have a respect for life, liberty, and the
pursuit of happiness, and really understand
and hold to the view of the Declaration of
Independence that such rights are derived
from God, not government.
I want them to understand that "Love thy
Neighbor" is a call to responsibility on a
personal level, that can best be addressed
on a local and if need be state level, but
not from Washington DC!
I want them to understand that
re-dristributing wealth, or 'spreading the
wealth' as Obama let slip to "Joe the
Plumber" is a bad idea when it is done by
force by a third party, whether the third
party is Robin Hood, or the Government?
At least Robin Hood was trying to give
back what was stolen from the people in the
first place!
I want my next President to
understand that!
Blessings,
Jonathan
Still love ya Ted!
