CBS News' Kathy Frankovic: The Economy Has The Same Importance It Had In 1992

[richde52]

Yesterday Obama held a news conference and as usual we heard more of the same: me good, McCain bad.
This has been his mantra along with how terrible things are in this country and that only he can make it better.
Specifically we heard how dire the economy is with unemployment increasing to near 6%. He was clear that things haven%u2019t been this bad since the Great Depression!
What%u2019s the cure? Him. He advocates giving the people another $1,000 rebate so they can pay for their gasoline along with higher taxes supposedly to get the rich to pay their fair share.
Obama%u2019s message can be summed up in the following way: the country is in terrible shape and only I can fix it.
Think hard about what he is conveying, apparently we as individuals are not capable of helping ourselves, that only he and his would be administration can lead us out of our troubles.
Is this really true? Have we become this helpless that we need a border line cult figure to improve our lives?
I think not. And that is what this election is really about, not left/right nor parties but about our soul as individuals and whether we still have the grit and the hunger for liberty that our forefathers had.
So folks are you ready to trade your liberty to a cult figure for a $1,000 and ready to admit that you are incapable of helping yourself?
If yes vote for Obama because he is more than ready to tell you how you should behave on a daily basis.

Obama spoke publically just the other day and made it clear that he opposes slavery reparations, so that''s a lie.

McCain wants to leave taxes just the way they are for individuals and cut taxes for Corporations who''ve already had their taxes cut.

Obama wants to cut taxes for the peole who actually fuel consumer spending...the middle class. The people who''ve received $300 checks fromm the republicans will receive permanent tax cuts from Obama;they won''t get *** from McNasty.

If Obama were elected, he would tax tax tax tax tax, until unemployment climbed to 15% - then he would blame everything on someone else.

Obama''''s first order of business would be SLAVERY REPARATIONS! How do you feel about giving 5% of your tax dollars to black people - even though none of them were ever slaves?

You poor simple minded fascist if you count all the people who are out of work TODAY, unemployment is at 14% and McSame wants to continue the same lame policies as Bush. Me thinks you protest not out of love for Country but out of your own blind hatred and bigotry. Sieg Heil McSame

Neo-cons that support McCain fail to remember that he was the one that forced the Air Force to consider using EADS/Airbus tanker instead of Boeing''s. How patriotic his he? Does he really care?

Any boob that buys into McMeans negative "savior" attacks on Obama should have their head checked. How stupid do you have to be think that Obama''s popularity with democrats and people overseas is a bad thing. McCain is just frustrated (and angry) that even his own republican base isn''t crazy about him.

John McCain: "I''m totally friggin'' clueless about most things, but the economy is probably my WORST. Fortunately, I have Phil Gramm to keep all you little whiners in line!"
