I want McCain too, here's part of the reason why
(copying post from another thread)


I agree about debit, but let's look at O's plan, FAR MORE debt and for far longer.....(do we need/want to pay for child day care??)

http://www.realdemocracy.com/no2party.htm

--copy--For instance, consider two sweeping new entitlements that Obama plans to offer for all Americans – universal (but, he insists, “voluntary”) federally-funded pre-school for all children starting at age three, and a low-cost, heavily subsidized federal health insurance plan for every low or middle income American who wants it.

A President Obama would no doubt promote such proposals in his first year in office and a compliant, heavily-Democratic Congress would approve them promptly—perhaps making the benefits even more generous. This means that before the next election, tens of millions (probably hundreds of millions) of American families will take advantage of “free” pre-kindergarten education (and day care), as well as cheap, subsidized (to the tune of at least $160 billion per year) health insurance. The chances of ever taking away such goodies are nil --- Presidents may come and go, but entitlements are forever. New government give-aways may accomplish nothing constructive but they’re all but impossible to eliminate once they’re up and running.
--snip--Obama’s new entitlements will similarly survive all attempts to eliminate them. If he becomes President we’ll be permanently stuck not just with federal pre-school and a subsidized health insurance guarantee (Obama described it as a “right” in the last debate), but with a $4,000 annual check (a so-called “refundable tax credit”) to all “non-wealthy” college students, a doubling of the Peace Corps, vast increases in AmeriCorps, new billions for “National Service,” a tripling of the foreign aid budget (a specific Obama promise) and much, much more. For those who believe it’s easy to reduce or erase such spending in future administrations, consider the example of Bill Clinton’s cherished “service program” AmeriCorps (which pays its “volunteers” close to $30,000 a year). Gingrich, George W. Bush and countless other conservatives recognize that this is a wasteful, crooked, outrageous effort to use taxpayer money to fund leftist activism, but even when the GOP controlled all levers of government they made no progress in slaughtering the monster.
Aside from the ongoing growth of government and the waste of public money, other changes brought about by President Obama will prove to be unalterable and devastating: in his first year, he will authorize gays serving openly in the military, and hasten the national imposition of homosexual marriage (he’s pledged to repeal the Defense of Marriage Act).

He will also get the chance to appoint at least two, and perhaps as many as four new justices to the Supreme Court of the United States. All legal observers expect Obama’s nominees to embrace an even more activist, leftist view of the Constitution and legal system than Clinton’s appointees, Breyer and Ginzburg. The damage from the remaking of the court could prove incalculable. There is also no chancesof impeaching any Supreme Court Justice (short of a credible murder or rape charge) even if Republicans re-take control in some future Congress. The GOP (led by Jerry Ford as House Minority Leader) tried to gain traction for impeachment efforts to counteract the wildly destructive excesses of the Warren Court but got absolutely nowhere and managed, mostly, to embarrass themselves.
(ARE U READING THIS??)

Finally, and perhaps most fatally, a President Obama will radically revamp our already broken immigration system and permanently remake the country, politically and demographically.

Most conservatives passionately opposed the sweeping immigration reform promoted in 2007 by President Bush, Senator McCain (and, it must be noted, a majority of Republican members of the US Senate) because it granted a complicated path to legalization for some of the millions of illegal immigrants who are already here. Those concerned citizens who celebrated “victory” last year with the collapse of the immigration compromise should prepare themselves for a much more liberal, forgiving reform under Obama (and his supportive Congress) that will make legalization far easier, and will include far more of the illegals as future voters and citizens

If the government hands out goodies to various constituencies, those segments of the population will continue to support the idea of enriching themselves with other people’s money.

That’s the biggest threat of an Obama presidency: the creation of vast new groups of dependent Americans who will comprise an unassailable new coalition that will enjoy iron control of our politics for a generation or more. If you start with newly legalized immigrant voters (with as many as 10 million new Democrats totally beholden to Obama and company) and then add the beneficiaries of government pre-school, the new nursery school teachers, the recipients and administrators of federal health insurance, federal college grants, the businesses who’ll enjoy the $150 billion in promised subsidies for “alternative energy,” the companies and employees of the vast increases in “infra-structure” spending (lots more bridges to nowhere), the non-tax payers who will suddenly receive a $1,000 per household check (under the guise of “refundable tax credit,” and many, many more. ---end copy---

OUR money, our children's debit, sure hope people see it for what it is - and isn't!! BB

by grade three there is no statistical difference in head start students vs. non- head start students....it is subsidized day care... and yes ...i took advantage of it....

Given the current lack of actual education in some of our schools...

Home school. At least then you won't have to worry that your child will end up at a same sex marriage as part of a 'field trip'. Nor will you have to worry about your child learning politics from anyone other than you, faith from anyone other than you, or morals from anyone other than you.

Our education system is way broke... Government can't even run itself... How then is it supposed to run, regulate, or even administrate an education system.

My mom worked at the company that provided Head Start for our city. I have studied it in school.

It does help. These same children would have gone to kindergarten unprepared. Vocabulary skills, socialization skills, hand-eye coordination - every aspect was improved with Head Start. They also had to learn how to follow directions from a teacher.

Many people pay for their child to go to pre-school. I did it for my child. Now imagine what it would be like for the low-income children that didn't go to pre-school to not be able to compete with the children that did. Not good.

Those kids you quote as showing up at a same sex marriage..There is what we call parental permission which must be signed before such a trip..If their parents didnt have a problem with it why should you.

Can't teach morals in the class room!
Can't teach anything that even mentions god or religion in the classroom!

Yet you CAN teach children who have not yet established their own sense of identity anti-morals. Whats up with that...

I would be curious as to what was actually put on the permission slip as an explanation... I once got a permission slip for my daughter to attend a sex ed class. Being curious I checked the agenda with the school (cause the slip lacked SPECIFIC data) she would have been attending a film on prostitution in a foreign country which was quite graphic.

She did not go... But the school punished her by makeing her sit in the office the entire time the other children were gone.

After the trip several parents complained (they should have checked as I did)

Obama's ahead in the polls.

Black candidates always poll higher, because white Americans don't want to appear racist.

Democrats always poll higher, because Republicans have better things to do than to take polls.

I'm white, my friends and family are right. It's not about not wanting to appear racist.

If he was white and had the same policies, I would still be voting for him.

Wow!! I can't believe that you said that if someone is homeschooled that they will not be gay. People don't learn to be gay.
