"Pull out of Iraq"?
Perhaps the U.S. should pull out of Chicago?
Body count:
In the last six months:
292 killed (murdered) in Chicago;
221 killed in Iraq.
Chicago.... Who manages it?
Senators: Barack Obama & Dick Durbin
Rep: Jesse Jackson Jr.,
Illinois Gov: Rod Blogojevich,
Illinois House leader Mike Madigan,
Illinois Atty. Gen. Lisa Madigan (daughter of Mike),
Chicago Mayor Richard M. Daley (son of Mayor Richard J. Daley)
.....our leadership in Illinois.....all lifetime Democrats.
Thank you for the combat zone in Chicago.
Of course, they're all blaming each other!
Can't blame Republicans, they're aren't any!
State pension fund $44 Billion in debt, worst in country.
Iraq, 67.2 Billion SURPLUS...
Cook County (Chicago) sales tax 10.25%highest in country. (Look 'em up if you want).
Chicago school system rated one of the worst in the country.
This is the political culture that Obama comes from in Illinois. And he's gonna 'fix' Washington politics for us!
Screwed in 08... Gross understatement.

McCain vs. Obama on taxes
CAPITAL GAINS TAX
MCCAIN - 0% on home sales up to $500,000 per home (couples). McCain does not propose any change in existing home sales income tax.
OBAMA - 28% on profit from ALL home sales. (How does this affect you? If you sell your home and make a profit, you will pay 28% of your gain on taxes. If you are heading toward retirement and would like to down-size your home or move into a retirement community, 28% of the money you make from your home will go to taxes. This proposal will adversely affect the elderly who are counting on the income from their homes as part of their retirement income.)
DIVIDEND TAX
MCCAIN - 15% (no change)
OBAMA - 39.6% - (How will this affect you? If you have any money invested in stock market, IRA, mutual funds, college funds, life insurance, retirement accounts, or anything that pays or reinvests dividends, you will now be paying nearly 40% of the money earned on taxes if Obama becomes president. The experts predict that 'Higher tax rates on dividends and capital gains would crash the stock market, yet do absolutely nothing to cut the deficit.')
INCOME TAX
MCCAIN - (no changes)
Single making 30K - tax $4,500
Single making 50K - tax $12,500
Single making 75K - tax $18,750
Married making 60K- tax $9,000
Married making 75K - tax $18,750
Married making 125K - tax $31,250
OBAMA (reversion to pre-Bush tax cuts)
Single making 30K - tax $8,400
Single making 50K - tax $14,000
Single making 75K - tax $23,250
Married making 60K - tax $16,800
Married making 75K - tax $21,000
Married making 125K - tax $38,750
Under Obama, your taxes could almost double!
INHERITANCE TAX
MCCAIN - 0% (No change, Bush repealed this tax)
OBAMA - Restore the inheritance tax
Many families have lost businesses, farms, ranches, and homes that have been in their families for generations because they could not afford the inheritance tax. Those willing their assets to loved ones will only lose them to these taxes.
NEW TAXES PROPOSED BY OBAMA
New government taxes proposed on homes that are more than 2400 square feet.
New gasoline taxes (as if gas weren't high enough already)
New taxes on natural resources consumption (heating gas, water, electricity)
New taxes on retirement accounts
New taxes to pay for socialized medicine so we can receive the same level of medical care as other third-world countries!!!

On Sarah Palin's support of AIPAC
I don't think Palin is an evil jew minion for AIPAC, she's just a little bit misguided. She's like every other American who are brainwashed to think it's our job to support Israel, and that they are just a peaceful friendly state trying to coexist in the middle east.
Keep in mind, Sarah Palin has no Washington political experience (like most Americans). She doesn't yet know what things are like down in Washington, she doesn't know how the Jews run the show. I have a feeling when she's finally in Washington, and sees how things really are, her opinions on AIPAC will change.
To quote Ron Paul (as an example of how Washington politics are so different than other places, like Alaska):
"The statement earlier made that we all went to Washington to change Washington, Washington changed us. I don't think that applies to me. Washington did not change me. I would have liked to have changed Washington." ~ Ron Paul

Why it's imperative that McCain wins
For the first time in the history of the United States, a black person is the nominee for president, on a major political party. This is history in the making.
Now, imagine the anger among blacks everywhere who will feel cheated if "another old white guy" beats Obama. They will feel that the election was rigged, and that "whitey" still controls everything. Blacks everywhere will riot in the streets, raping and killing every white person they see. While this is a horrid thought, it's exactly what we need.
Whites who are not racially aware, all across America, will see what the blacks are doing, and finally wake up. The sheep will leave the pasture when they realize that these blacks are mere beasts and were not created equal to them. They will see how much blacks hate and resent them.
Then, finally, the race-war will be on. And brothers and sisters, we will win it. We never lose.
All of this is why it's imperative that we vote for McCain and push him to victory over Obama. It's true, we know that McCain isn't pro-White in the least, and with his rabid support of Israel, he is more Jewish than White. But to your average black, they see him as "just another old white guy".
Like McCain or not, he's what we need. For a long time now the ZOG has been using us as tools - it's time we use one of them as a tool. It's time we use John McCain as a tool.

McCain picks Sarah Palin for VP
McCain has officially picked his running mate, and it is Alaska's Governor Sarah Palin.
She is a stunningly beautiful 44 year old white woman. Very conservative, but not a neo-con. She hunts, fishes, eats moose-burgers, rides snowmobiles, and is even a lifetime member of the National Rifle Association. Her politics are very similar to Congressman Ron Paul's, in fact it was speculated by Ron Paul's supporters that if Ron Paul had won the nomination, he should pick her.
She's my kind of woman!
McCain picking Palin seals the deal for me, he will be who I vote for, despite the fact I really dislike McCain and consider him more of a liberal than anything. Remember, he's very old and not in the best health, chances are he might kick the bucket from old age while in office, which would allow Sarah to become president. I would love her to be president.
She is Alaska's governor, and let us not forget Alaska was the state Ron Paul did the best in, during the primaries. Alaskans are generally very friendly, true conservatives. Ron Paul did well in Alaska, lot's of Alaskans voted for him - the same ones that voted Palin into office. So you can be sure that Palin is a good choice, if you're a fan of Ron Paul like I am.
Like Ron Paul, she is also anti-Israel, or at least doesn't believe we should be sending Israel billions of dollars and supporting them in the middle east. This is also a plus in my book. A little bit of trivia, the moment she took office as Governor of Alaska, she sold an Israeli-made personal jet on Ebay, that the last Governor of Alaska wasted money on and bought with taxpayer money. She then used the money (about $2mil) from the sale of the Jet, to help Alaska.
McCain/Palin has my vote over Obama/Biden any day of the week. They should have your vote too, unless you are voting third party, or are a liberal idiot.
But the real question is, will she be enough to help McCain win? She certainly might pull some votes from ex-Hillary supporters that were on the fence and couldn't decide who to vote for. But will her just being a woman, be enough for them to vote Republican? Sarah might be a woman like Hillary, but she's also a conservative, small-government, fiscally conservative gun-loving woman - completely opposite of what Hillary Clinton was.
I must say, I'm perplexed by this choice though. Why would McCain pick Palin? If he was doing it to gain a lead over Obama by choosing a woman and grabbing the female vote, wouldn't it have been a better choice for him to pick someone like Condoleeza Rice, who is both a woman and black? That would surely strengthen McCain's lead much more, because he would grab both the female vote from ex-Hillary supports, and also the vote from some Obama supporters. Maybe Condi just wasn't interested in being VP, or maybe McCain thought she had too much of a connection to George Bush. Who knows.
Regardless, I love Sarah Palin, and think she's an awesome candidate - enough to pinch my nose and vote for the RINO McCain.

DIVERSITY.
You want real diversity? Try looking at white people. White people can have black hair, brown hair, blonde hair, red hair, blue hair, white hair, gray hair, and many thousands of shades in-between. White people can have blue eyes, green eyes, brown eyes, gray eyes, hazel eyes, amber eyes, and many other different colors.
Compare 3 random white females, to 3 random black females:
...
Notice that the black women all have black hair and black eyes. No diversity at all in their appearance.

7 Reasons to vote for Ron Paul
1) He is the only mainstream candidate running that is not a member of a group known as the CFR (Council On Foreign Relations). I don't know about you but I don't want to pick from a group of people that all have the same agenda. Hillary, Obama, Romney, McCain, you name them, they all go to these meetings and decide what do do with foreign policy. And no this isn't a conspiracy theory, you can go right to the CFR's government website and look at their member list.
2) He is the only candidate running that has a proven record. You can go back through his history, try to dig up any kind of dirt on him, you cannot find anything at all he's an honest man, not your typical politician. He has not changed his views on things (flip flopping as it's called) for the past 40 years that he's been in politics. He does not pander to certain groups like most politicians do. He stands by what he believes in. You ever notice how politicians will change their tune, and lie about things depending what crowd they are in front of? Ron Paul always stands by what he believes in, does not pander, does not flip flop, no matter what crowd he is in front of, even if it means he will get booed for his positions. With Ron Paul, you KNOW what you're getting. You KNOW he's going to do the things you say he's going to do. You might not agree with the things he is going to do, but you know he's not lying and is really going to do them. An example would be that he wants to legalize marijuana because he says a ban on it is unconstitutional and the war on drugs is stupid. I don't agree with him on this, I think it should stay illegal, but he still has my vote, because he's honest.
3) He's a statesman, not a politician. If you truly sit down and take the time to listen to his speeches, where he speaks from his heart, where he does not read from a script or have people telling him what to say , you will know the difference between a statesman, and your typical politician we are so used to. He's not a good speaker, that's right, and his voice is a bit annoying, but at least he speaks from his heart and is honest. Of course, even though he speaks the truth about everything, people will still listen to the other candidates and believe them, just because they can talk better and have speech coaches. The majority of people are so superficial. They will vote for the candidate just because he's good looking, and talks good, even if that candidate says he he is going to start world war iii and turn you all into slaves.
4) He's censored by the media. That says a lot about a candidate. You know the media are multi-billion dollar corporations, right? Their goal is to profit and make money. They basically can get anyone elected that they want, just by giving a candidate more coverage. They are going to get a candidate elected that is going to benefit them, or in other words, give them more and more money and free kicks from the government. And yes, the media can get anyone elected they want. If you take candidate A who no one knows about, or candidate B who is on CNN/ABC/FoxNews/MSNBC 24/7 that millions of Americans see every day, who do you think is going to win? And yes, Ron Paul is being censored by the media. If you are not heavily into politics you probably don't see it. But let's look at some facts. Ron Paul has come in second place in two states so far. That is incredible considering the media keeps calling him a 'fringe' candidate with 'no chance'. When the media reports those results, they will say "First place was Romney with XX%, then third place was McCain with XX%, and then you have Huckabee taking 4th with X%." And you're just like... WTF, who was second? Then you look up the results on the internet, you know, the only news source that is unbiased and not corrupt, and you see Ron Paul took 2nd.
5) Ron Paul is going to abolish the IRS, enough said. Everyone hates the IRS, they take half of everything on your paycheck. But, people think the IRS cannot go away and is a necessary evil. This is why Ron Paul gets called a kook, people will say "Well, if he abolishes it, how's the government going to make money and pay for our roads, or our education?" Well, anyone who takes a political sciences class in college will know that none of the money the IRS takes from you goes to roads, or anything useful for that matter. It's actually used to pay interest on our national debt. INTEREST. Not even used for the debt itself, but for the interest on that debt, or in other words the PROFIT, which goes into the pockets of some very, very rich people.
You know, all politicians talk about cutting taxes. And some do, even if only a little bit. The voters hate taxes. But you know, they never do what's necessary when cutting taxes, which is CUT SPENDING too. You could get rid of most all taxes we paid, if the damn government didn't spend the money on useless things.
What useless things? Check these lists out, they are EXTREMELY telling:
http://www.lib.lsu.edu/gov/alpha
http://www.americanfreemen.org/federalagenciesthatshouldn%27texist
Do we even need 1/20th of the things on there? Politicians love to spend money on useless things. Ron Paul wants to end that.
6) Ron Paul doesn't want to tell you what to do with your life. He wants to end the war on drugs and legalize them, for example. Gay marriage? He doesn't care, says it's not the federal government's job to tell you what you can or can't do, let the states decide. Abortion? Being a doctor who has delivered babies, he thinks it's wrong, but again, doesn't care, let the states decide.
Of course if you're a typical American citizen (sheep) that wants the government to do everything for you and tell you what's best, then by all means, vote for any one of the other candidates.
7) He actually does what he says he's going to do? You can look up his entire voting history while he was in congress. Do the research. Or don't, vote for another typical politician that is all talk and no walk.
Anyway if you wanna know why people like Ron Paul, don't listen to what the media spoon feeds you, watch a video and watch him talk:
http://youtube.com/watch?v=FG_HuFtP8w8&feature=related
http://youtube.com/watch?v=FG2PUZoukfA
http://youtube.com/watch?v=IWfIhFhelm8&feature=related
take your pick.
But I doubt you will. You are like the typical American. You want instant gratification. You want to live life fast. You can't be bothered to do actual research. You will just listen to soundbytes. Don't do your research. Just vote blindly like every other person does. Vote for who the media, the status quo, tells you to vote.
2) He is the only candidate running that has a proven record. You can go back through his history, try to dig up any kind of dirt on him, you cannot find anything at all he's an honest man, not your typical politician. He has not changed his views on things (flip flopping as it's called) for the past 40 years that he's been in politics. He does not pander to certain groups like most politicians do.

They are going to get a candidate elected that is going to benefit them, or in other words, give them more and more money and free kicks from the government. And yes, the media can get anyone elected they want. If you take candidate A who no one knows about, or candidate B who is on CNN/ABC/FoxNews/MSNBC 24/7 that millions of Americans see every day, who do you think is going to win? And yes, Ron Paul is being censored by the media. If you are not heavily into politics you probably don't see it. But let's look at some facts. Ron Paul has come in second place in two states so far. That is incredible considering the media keeps calling him a 'fringe' candidate with 'no chance'. When the media reports those results, they will say "First place was Romney with XX%, then third place was McCain with XX%, and then you have Huckabee taking 4th with X%." And you're just like... WTF, who was second? Then you look up the results on the internet, you know, the only news source that is unbiased and not corrupt, and you see Ron Paul took 2nd.
5) Ron Paul is going to abolish the IRS, enough said. Everyone hates the IRS, they take half of everything on your paycheck. But, people think the IRS cannot go away and is a necessary evil. This is why Ron Paul gets called a kook, people will say "Well, if he abolishes it, how's the government going to make money and pay for our roads, or our education?" Well, anyone who takes a political sciences class in college will know that none of the money the IRS takes from you goes to roads, or anything useful for that matter. It's actually used to pay interest on our national debt. INTEREST. Not even used for the debt itself, but for the interest on that debt, or in other words the PROFIT, which goes into the pockets of some very, very rich people.
You know, all politicians talk about cutting taxes. And some do, even if only a little bit. The voters hate taxes. But you know, they never do what's necessary when cutting taxes, which is CUT SPENDING too. You could get rid of most all taxes we paid, if the damn government didn't spend the money on useless things.
What useless things? Check these lists out, they are EXTREMELY telling:

http://www.americanfreemen.org/federalagenciesthatshouldn%27texist
Do we even need 1/20th of the things on there? Politicians love to spend money on useless things. Ron Paul wants to end that.
6) Ron Paul doesn't want to tell you what to do with your life. He wants to end the war on drugs and legalize them, for example. Gay marriage? He doesn't care, says it's not the federal government's job to tell you what you can or can't do, let the states decide. Abortion? Being a doctor who has delivered babies, he thinks it's wrong, but again, doesn't care, let the states decide.
Of course if you're a typical American citizen (sheep) that wants the government to do everything for you and tell you what's best, then by all means, vote for any one of the other candidates.
7) He actually does what he says he's going to do? You can look up his entire voting history while he was in congress. Do the research. Or don't, vote for another typical politician that is all talk and no walk.
Anyway if you wanna know why people like Ron Paul, don't listen to what the media spoon feeds you, watch a video and watch him talk:

take your pick.
But I doubt you will. You are like the typical American. You want instant gratification. You want to live life fast. You can't be bothered to do actual research. You will just listen to soundbytes. Don't do your research. Just vote blindly like every other person does. Vote for who the media, the status quo, tells you to vote.
Do not waste your vote
I am 18 and will be voting for Ron Paul in both the primary tomorrow, and also in the general election in november either as a write-in or if he runs third party, if he doesn't get the republican nomination. He has opened my eyes and showed me that parties do not matter, republican, democrat, you get the same thing basically, they just take turns. He has showed me that there is no such thing as wasting your vote and you should vote for who you really want to be president, not who's likely to win.
Americans have this mentality that they have to vote for who ever is 'probably going to win'. But it's a flawed mentality. The presidency and elections are not a horse race. You're not going to the track and betting on a horse that has the best shot at winning. You gain nothing, and in fact lose everything, if you vote and elect someone that does not share your philosophy. The only way you would possibly win, is if you are actually betting money on the election, but come on, how many people actually do that? I actually have a friend who HATES John McCain and wants to see Mike Huckabee elected, but says he is going to vote for McCain just because Huckabee has no chance. lol. Does this fool not understand that if he, and people like him stopped that idiotic mentality, and actually voted for Huckabee, he would have a much better shot at winning?
Americans wonder why they keep getting a crappy president every election. We had Bush Sr. who was such a crappy president he didn't get relelected for his 2nd term. We had Clinton who everyone wanted to impeach. Then we have Bush Jr who everyone, even republicans dislike, and want to impeach. Americans get what comes to them, if they want to keep electing the same idiots to office just because they are the 'likely' winners.
I have a question: What's the point in even having an election, if everyone is just going to vote for the same person because they are the 'likely winner'? Let's just skip the election, and make the 'likely winner' president before any elections even happen.
So yes, I will be voting for Ron Paul. I know he won't win the nomination because too many people are idiots and vote for someone just because they're popular, but at least I know I won't be wasting my vote like people think. To truly waste my vote would be to vote for the lesser of 2 evil, which I will never, ever do again.
