New GOP Mail Goes After Obama On Lobbyists, Taxes, And Socialism

The anti-Obama mail keeps piling up. A reader forwarded a set of pieces that go after the Illinois Democrat for not, really, being a thorn in the side of lobbyists and for planning to raise taxes alongside his liberal allies in Congress,

The first piece accuses Obama of funneling the "hard-earned money of America's taxpayers to pay his friends and family with political favors."

As evidence the literature cites the Senator's relationship with Tony Rezko - the indicted Chicago insider - and two earmarks that Obama helped bring to Illinois; projects that, tangentially, were connected to his wife or a political supporter. It is, in short, thin gruel.

The second mailer is a more boilerplate charge. It accuses "Obama and liberal Democrats" of planning for "higher taxes," over a photo of the Senator and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi. What follows is a greatest hits list, of sorts, in Republican criticisms: Obama plans to spread the wealth, he took huge amounts of contributions from Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, and is promising "socialist" spending plans that would balloon the deficit.

What a bunch of old worn out political machine crup puppies these GOPrs have turned out to be. Who hires these people to send out emails to scare people?
Worthless diatribe when they could be talking about McCain's good points. He actually does have some good ideas, but the negativity is turning people OFF.

Yup sure enough OBAMA'S RECORD is full of negatives and it's just WRONG of ANYBODY to point them out.

How is it that Obama's "negative" and often (personally)INSULTING approach to campaigning isn't noticed........He not only denigrates his opponents he DENIGRATES HIS COUNTRY.

I saw that flier and EVERY thing it says is a FACT but why should we worry because Obama himself promised to "change".

What the flier didn't mention however is that the main jobs Obama has had for his entire life were to "disburse" other peoples money......and oh yeah check out how he got into HARVARD and how it was paid for (if you think it was "student loans" then you sure don't know how much Harvard costs).

The GOP continues to preach to the choir,on Tuesday we will know if their message was heard beyond the receptive ears of their ever shrinking congregation.

From Harvard's financial aid page:

All Harvard students receive a subsidy - even students who do not qualify for need-based aid receive a substantial subsidy, or implicit scholarship, from the university because the price charged covers only about two-thirds of the cost to Harvard for the education provided. The remaining third is paid for largely by endowments and gifts.

But somebody has to "sponsor" you. and barack sponsor was an anti-Israeli.

Barack also went to Chicago to SEEK out the radicals that he associated with. Check to see who the "rest of his neighbors" include.
