You're a Racist if you don't support Obama

Why is it that many people treat you as if you are a racist if you don't support Obama for President?

The fact that I don't have a vested interest in the skin color of the president shouldn't make me a racist. Do I hate Arkansas if I'm not supporting Huckabee? Do I have something against actors if i didn't support Thompson? Do I hate women if I don't support Hillary?

I understand that many people of color have a vested interest in a black president being elected. I also understand that's skin color is going to be significantly more important to them. However, I take issue with being treated as a racist because my vote requires something a little deeper than skin.

Do I think Obama is the right man for the job? No, not just no, but **** no. His skin color has nothing to do with his socialist anti-American opinions. Regardless of his skin color, I don't want a man with his opinions as president.

White guilt won't buy my vote and it's racist for people to assume that skin color makes him a worthwhile candidate.

The Mortgage Crisis

The mortgage crisis could not have been an accident. The people that "approved" the mortgages KNEW that:

  1. Were going to have prohibitive payments in 12 to 24 months
  2. Were going to be on property worth far less than what they sold for within 12 to 24 months
  3. Would be forclosed on because they couldn't sell for the amount of the mortgage

Bankers blame it on homeowners making bad decisions or not having foresight. However, those bankers get very uncomfortable when you point out that these mortgage were all approved by bankers that get PAID to know the market and it's trends.

When you point out that regular people like you and I saw this coming back in 2004/2005, they start to tap their fingers and look around nervously.

The short answer is that they set us up and we don't know "why".

Mortgages traditionally require people prove they can make the payments even when the market is not headed down. The banks knew exactly what they were doing...

The Media On It's Knees

Why is it that the mainstream media is clamoring on their knees in front of Obama as if their unwarranted affection will somehow lower his zipper and give them what they so desperately seem to want?
