It’s election year; in case you haven’t noticed, and things are beginning to heat up. Candidates are calling each other out, tentions are flairing up in house holds, and talk shows are trying to persuade listeners to vote for a certain candidate. Things can get kind of confusing during an election year, and I like to keep things as simple as possible. So, when I go vote for a cadidate, I think about an old saying: “you are the company you keep.” When I sit down and think about those who support Obama, then I realize that there’s no way I can vote for him. Here are five groups (maybe a little more) who will vote for Obama that cause me not to vote for him:
1) Hollywood- I like Hollywood. It’s a fun town, has nice weather, and sometimes it produces good movies and shows. It’s the people inside Hollywood I don’t like. The majority of Hollywood are way left leaning liberals who think socialism is ideal, and well… just look how they live their lives, not quite the model citizens.
2) The world- you take a look at how receptive the world is of Obama, and it’s frightening. They view him as a god who should be enthroned. If you see how Europe is turning out, and how the countries are being run; especially France. Why would we want a candidate that these country fully accept? I don’t want a candidate that the world despises, but I surely don’t want one that the world loves.
3) The youth- don’t we always complain how the youth are lost, confused, and don’t know how to run their own lives. Then why should I vote for a candidate that the youth fully embrace. Doesn’t make sense to me.
4) The poor- this isn’t a knock on the poor; but I don’t want to vote like the poor. They want handouts from the government, and will vote for the party that gives the most handouts. The people should help the poor, not the government. Government programs are good for temporary fixes, but many feel that they can’t live without the assistance.
5) Air America, moveon.org, Atheists… ENOUGH SAID.
6) Finally… Uniions. Unions were fine and dandy back in the 50’s, but now they are money grubbing organizations who protect the worker at all costs; even those that don’t deserve protection. Don’t believe me, look at the teacher unions. Also; they take union dues and give them to candidates, that’s just wrong.
When I sit down and see who is voting for Obama, I realize why I won’t vote for him; he truly is the company he keeps.
