So now that Obama is not the scary socialist, will you feel more comfortable when he becomes President?

Question

Tax cuts for 95% of us, downsizing of unnecessary gov't programs and and finally putting an end to corporate welfare. Thats Obama's plan.

Will the socialist Republicans get red in the face?

Answer 1

Julie H- Quit lying.

And yes I'd be very comfortable with Obama as President. Tax cuts for most of America, no capital gains taxes for small businesses, trimming the fat of unnecessary programs?

He is NOT a socialist, and anyone who says otherwise is either willfully ignorant or lying.

Answer 2

Well, if I ever live to see him president (and I intend to live a long time yet), I would not be comfortable.  That man scares the everloving bejesus out of me if he were president.  My taxes will be going up if he is elected.  There is no tax cuts for 95A% of us LOL.  I am a single divorced woman trying to live paycheck to paycheck.  Do you actually think I want my taxes raised by Obama to help homeowners keep their homes?  I wish I had a home to try to keep LOL.  Who do you think is going to pay for a national health care system?  I work every day to keep my health insurance.  I don't want to be pay for mine and be taxed some more to pay for every one else.  Please read more on Obama's plan.  You will get scared to death.

Answer 3

no because he is moving from socialism to communism and he still scares the c**p out of me.

Answer 4

You forget about all that government spending he plans to do...Where is going to get all the money to pay for these? TAXes on the rich and eventually on the poor when it's not enough.....

get educated.

Answer 5

If, he becomes president, & NO!!!

Answer 6

No; Obama is still a fast talking lawyer in a ten thousand dollar suit.

He is really no different than Madonna, Sting, Prince or any other 'one named' celebrity.

Answer 7

I wouldn't care if Obama was a Socialist. In fact I would welcome it. Anyway  he's a million times better than McCain

Answer 8

thats his plan???????????????

when did this happen?

he changed his mind again huh?

or didnt you hear his speech where he pans 800 billion in new spending for more government last night

Answer 9

take from the rich, give to the poor. that's what socialism IS.

and that's what he wants.

Answer 10

Pfft, we all end up poor and homeless because he actually plans on raising them.  And who knows what else.

Answer 11

Not at all, and his claim of tax cuts for 95% is (a) not in conformance with his previously announced policies, and (b) demands a stiff tax increase on the 5% at the top -- who are already paying fully half of the entire tax bill.  The effect of this on the investment required to actually expand the economy would be devastating.  There is not a single major policy position he has taken which would not be a disaster.

Answer 12

How do you figure that Obama isn't a socialist? He's going to raise all of our taxes and has a World Poverty Fund. We are all going to contribute to that. No thanks. We can't afford Obama.
