Obama is Like, Super Excited

2008 Elections, Barack Obama / No Comments

 

Another gaffe Obama recently made is saying there will be a change of President in 40 days (counting to the election rather than the inauguration).

 

I’m sure he’s eagerly crossing off the days on his calendar and already planning what he’ll wear on the first day of School…

Neighborliness or State-Mandated Socialism?

Last night in his interview with Bill O’Reilly, Obama said:

“If I am sitting pretty, and you’ve got a waitress who is making minimum wage plus tips, and I can afford it and she can’t — what’s the big deal for me to say, ‘I’m going to pay a little bit more.’ That is neighborliness.”

Well, Senator Obama, it WOULD BE neighborliness if you were doing it VOLUNTARILY, i.e. if free will were involved.

However, if the amount you pay is decided by the federal government, collected by the federal government, and distributed where and whence the federal government sees fit, and if you resent the hell out of it (as I do), then the act is NOT neighborliness but state-mandated SOCIALISM, otherwise known as the forcible redistribution of wealth, otherwise known as highway robbery by the Nanny State bandits of the world.

(I was pleased when O’Reilly called him “Robin Hood Obama.”)
