Hmmmm where to begin.... I guess I could start by asking for your statements to at least resemble the truth in a superficial way but I guess that is a bit much to ask from a right-wing nutjob.

Champions heinous Partial Birth Abortion. Really? I was just under the impression that he supported a woman's right to choose? Seriously, do you know anyone that "champions" abortion? Let me ask you a question, would you really demand that a woman or a child to carry a rapist's child to term?

Calls for huge tax increases to fund international welfare. Where was this? I must have missed it, is this the info you only are able to somehow get from Rush Limbaugh or Ann Coultier? From what I have read he is goign to lower taxes on everyone but the very wealthiest among us. If you look at his plan vs McCain's, the only people who pay more in taxes under Obama's plan are people earning 200k plus. Somehow I don't think you will be paying more in taxes. International welfare? What is that? We already send billions in aid to foreign countries but I havn't heard anyone talk about increasing it.

Called to slow development of combat technology. Havn't seen this message from Obama either but I'm not sure it isn't such a bad idea. As it is we develop tech and then just sell it to other countries or it is stolen from us and then we have to develop tech to combat the tech that made its way into the hands of countries like China.

Will meet with foreign tyrants and dictators (with no preconditions) You mean all tyrants and dictators or just the ones without oil? Right now we have Bush running to the Saudis every other month to beg them to pump more oil, they pat him on the head and send him on his way with a "maybe". Isn't it about time we talked to our "enemies"? Some of my best friends today are people who didn't like me when they first met me.

Argued Jesus condoned gay unions. Again, when was this speech? Before or after his speech on race? As far as gay people go, I have nothing against them personally and I personally think the decision of who should be allowed to marry should be left to the church. I think we have it backwards, the Church should decide who can marry(religious) and the State should decide who to give civil unions(contract) I'm a big fan of seperation of Church and State, bad things tend to happen when religious nutbags get ahold of political power. Like invading the wrong country because "God told me to invade Iraq"

Calls for the decriminalizing of marijuana. WOW hadn't heard that but where do I sign up? I don't smoke, and don't do drugs and have one beer or glass of wine about once or twice a year. I personally feel alcohol is a much more dangerous drug than marijuana. Prohibition didn't work on alcohol and it hasn't worked with marijuana, all that has happened is we have lots of non violent offenders sitting in prison and costing the taxpayers money. Legalize it and tax it like cigarettes are and we would be swimming in new tax revenues and we would cut off alot of the illegal drug traffic from south of the boarder.

Seeks to destroy U.S. missile defense system. How about providing links? I consider myself fairly well informed but I have not seen anything about this. And please, only links to reputable sources, the last time I tried to check out one of the sites I think you are getting this from, it tried to upload a virus to my computer.

Wants prosecution of Christians who won't employ transvestites. Again, same as above

Desires condom based sex ed in schools. Well they need to do something, 17 kids from the same school, none of them older than 16 all got pregnant. I guess, "just say no" isn't working for sex either.

Will destroy manufacturing in US with global warming laws. Really? I guess where you see destruction I see opportunity, Americans are great at innovation, let's get back to work. Plus even tho Florida has screwed up elections twice now, I really don't want to see it under water.

Endorsed by terror group Hamas. Yeah, I guess you missed it, they removed thier endorsement of Obama. Since when do Americans give a damn about who some foreign entity endorses? Should we go around to all the sociopaths of the world and ask them who they endorse?

Supports "green" legislation to drive up gas prices. Doesn't seem like gas prices need any help in going up. Which legislation is this btw? Seems to me any legislation that would reduce our use of oil would tend to drive down prices. You know, supply and demand and all that.

I'm just sayin....
