this i an email i wrote to my family after receiving an obama-bashing email from...someone in my family.
Well lemme just put my reasons for voting for obama:
1. I don't want Sarah Palin to be president, EVER! she was the most political VP choice of all time. a good-looking white woman with a son in iraq, a special-needs child that she holds up to crowds like the lion king and a daughter who chose not to get an abortion, plus she's coincidentally the governor of the state where mccain wants to drill and she says it's A-OK...all she needs is a reformed-gay cousin to come out of the woodwork or something...meanwhile she's saying all these subliminally racial things about Obama like "this is a man who sees a different america than you and me" and basically calling him a terrorist...i don't likes it
2. I want the war in Iraq to end, it seems to be all about oil and based on lies, and obama was against it from the start.
3. I want global warming and energy dependence to be dealt with properly and palin doesn't even believe in man-made global warming!
4. John McCain voted with president bush over 90% of the time and president Bush = epic fail!!!!!111111
5. McCain has been running his campaign completely based on attacking Obama's character, running 100% negative ads while Obama is focusing on the economic crisis and other important issues, setting forth solutions and whatnot, and his negative ads are at least factual and about john mccain's record, not his personality, friends or pastor/religion...
6. Money - John McCain wants tax cuts for the rich/big businesses and Obama wants tax cuts for the poor and middle class (whatevs, sounds good to me), plus free health care which like every country has except us, which I'm definitely willing to give a chance to since I've got a medical bill for 35 dollars that my broke butt can't even afford to pay. I don't think my company will be making more than $250,000 a year anytime soon either, but if i t does i sure as heck won't mind paying 3% more taxes. I'll be RICH!
7. foreign relations. kind of touching on number 2 again - america is like the most hated country in the bush-hating world right now, and if we elect mccain it'll only get worse. the way i sees it, electing mccain is a one-way ticket to another 9-11-style attack. the rest of the world is in love with obama, and i am completely fine with having a president that other countries don't hate.
8. Obama is running a campaign that is funded by the people, while mccain is taking money from lobbyists and corporations. who will the new president have to answer to?
9. joe the plumber isn't even a licensed plumber and was most likely planted there by mccain's people to try to trip up obama
10. it's obvious - Obama has "a first-class intellect and a first-class temperament" - he has the oratory skills of a great leader and a presence that inspires great confidence. he's the new JFK! he is cool and his vice president is not crazy. Mccain is like an old, crotchety, frustrated man. I am subscribed to both Obama and McCain's email newsletters and Obama's always has a link to a video of either Barack, Michelle, Biden, or the campaign manager explaining what they're trying to do...Mccain's is just a letter written by some speech writer probably. Anyway, I just think that McCain's ideal candidate is Jack from 30 Rock. Obama is the best for shore!
I don't get how anyone could even think about voting republican right now. do you expect me to close my eyes to the current state of the country and the world when i vote and not think about who is in power right now, and maybe give them one more shot?!? "I didn't go to no fancy school or nothin', but that don't make no sense!" as chris rock says. The media is in love with Barack because he is the best! Everyone loves him because he is the best! He better win or I am going to move to Canada and go to film school in Vancouver. Aight, g2g do laundry and whatnot!
