Kinder-communist?


Under the Dome Quotes

By the end of the week, he'll be accusing me of being a secret communist because I shared my toys in kindergarten.

Re: Kinder-communist?

........“shared my toys in kindergarten.”

Under the principles of Obama’s “Redistribution of Wealth Program,” shouldn’t he have given his toys to those less fortunate than himself? Are there two standards here? One group who share their toys and one group which should ‘redistribute’ their toys.

I understand the LA Times has a video that shows Obama ‘not’ sharing his toys with his kindergarten class but refuses to release the tape. Yet the LA Times released a video which clearly shows Sarah Palin slapping another little girl in her kindergarten class for playing with Sarah’s Barbie Doll….thus proving once again the liberal slant of the media. But then experts have proven, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that the released video is of a 5 year old Tina Fey playing the part of a kindergarten aged Sarah Palin. These negative ads must stop.

Then Obama went on to say he shared his peanut butter and jelly sandwich with Opie. That is unsanitary. Kindergarten kids have runny noses and the pink eye. Sharing of food among kindergarteners should be avoided, especially during the cold and flu season. Opie took part of Obama’s sandwich and went on to catch a lake trout. I believe it was Alan Greenspan who said, “Give a man a fish today and he will ask for another fish tomorrow. Teach a man to fish and he will qualify for a subprime mortgage.”

Who could have known that both Barack and Opie would become Hollywood icons? I’ll be glad when the election is over and we can all get back to reading the classifieds.

Unfortunately, no one in the crowd was smart enough to ask about Obama's tax increases = Everybody loses: rich (you know the ones who hire workers), and especially the middle class (you know the ones that pay the taxes) and the poor (don't pay taxes, but do not have anything either).

Here is an example:

I believe that the N&O and all other Obama approving Newspapers have turned a blind eye toward Sen. Barack Obama's talk about "sharing the wealth". How does Obama do this?

If you could read Obama's lips they would be telling you (and of course, these lips change words everyday as necessary to please those listening!):
1. I PROPOSE to increase the top individual income tax rate by 13% (who does this apply to?), and .the second individual income tax by 10% (what does this mean?).
2. I PROPOSE to increase the capital gains tax rate by 33% (what will investors do?).
3. I PROPOSE to increase the tax rate on dividends by 33% (will anybody invest to get taxed more?).
4. I PROPOSE to reinstate the death tax (not in current law) with a new top marginal tax rate of 45% (Why would anyone leave their sons and daughters any money only to have it given to the government?).
5. I PROPOSE tax increases for corporations (Gee, N&O this affects the N&O, "Joe the Plumber", or the power companies? Oh, I forgot - the Oil Companies (who pass their increased taxes on to all of us). Also, SOMEBODY has to pay for Obama's PROPOSED Health Insurance!)

Considering the expected increased Democratic Control over the House and the Senate, what will stop Obama? BTW: The Tax Policy Center estimates that the above tax plans would raise taxes by 627 BILLION dollars over ten years. Honestly, will anybody afford to do anything EXCEPT WORK TO PAY TAXES?

Sounds like Herbert Hoover's days are back! (Remember the 1929 Stock Market Crash?)

Americans have a right to know all they can about their candidates. The Canadian press has a bit of insight;

The socialism connection appears very real and rather than joking about it, Obama should be addressing it directly.
