It's that simple. Obama's plans would cost us a
TRILLION DOLLARS MORE than we're spending now! We simply can't afford to elect
him president, whatever color he is. I would vote for Thomas Sowell (also
black) in a "New York minute." He UNDERSTANDS economics. But he could
never get elected, not because he's black, but because he wouldn't promise you
all the "goodies" Obama routinely does. What is he promising (today)?
A $65 billon a year health plan; $15 billion a year in green energy spending;
$8.5 billion in tax cuts and credits; a $25 billion dollar increase in foreign
aid; $18 billion a year in education spending; and $3.5 billion for a national
service plan. Put it all together and you have a $200 billion increase in
spending, JUST NEXT YEAR! $800 TRILLION over just the next four years, and that
doesn't even include the "Alternative minimum tax," a $50 billion
item that will surely pass. Whenever we suggest reducing taxes, they ask
"where are going to get the money?" But I ask now, "Where are we
going to get the money" for his fanciful notions of what he can "give
us." Ask him, he'll tell you: "higher taxes." We'll get to pay
for his fanciful promises, to be sure. (U. S. News & World Report) Not a
conservative source, that.
