BG45 Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 So the official thread on why you aren't voting Obama, maybe it'll save us some spamming every thread with reasons. Personally: 1) The Life Issue 2) He broke his campaign financing pledge. 3) Lack of experience (the same goes to Palin). 4) Intentional or not, his cult of personality is a bit intimidating. Although there are a number of his views I support, those four tend to stick out as to why not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jckinsman Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 (edited) You mean why I didn't vote for Obama! 1) Life 2) Integrity 3) Foreign Affairs 4) I do not think that fiscally the democratic way to "spread the wealth" is a correct way to spend our tax dollars. I believe in a free market competition for goods and services. There is so much I can say here about how lazy and greedy we ALL have got. That nothing will work in any way shape or form until Americans,get off there buttocks and get back to the basics. GOD,FAMILY,NEIGHBOR and RESPONSIBILITY. That is my two cents! Its worth a trillion bucks! (Please apply it towards the deficeit) Edited October 24, 2008 by jckinsman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geetarplayer Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 (edited) His invincible bigotry against the unborn and ties to Planned Parenthood. His vague "change" and "hope" rhetoric. His cult of personality. His supporters. Edited October 24, 2008 by geetarplayer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
