So you really do want Obama as President? You want someone who is not pro-life, who is not pro-gun, who is in the pocket of the ACLU, the gay rights activists, the affirmative action crowd, and want to raise taxes and grow government till the countries economic future is destroyed or sent into a deep depression?

You want someone who has been making nice with the ACLU? McCain isn’t a moderate. I know he has worked with Democrats and said crap that pissed all of us off but it didn’t stop us from voting for George W Bush. Look at his voting record on pro-life, hate crimes, gun-control, ear marks, tax cuts. He could hardly be more conservative. He wasn’t my first choice but he is a choice worth voting for. He is a embodies not perfection but a history of showing strength in the face of adversity. He went to Vietnam when he did not have to, he stay in the POW camp injured for 5 1/2 years when he did not have to. He also has had the courage to change his mind on immigration policy, on the Bush tax cuts, and on drilling. He has went before a gay talk show host and told he he did not support gay marriage, he stood in front of Iowa farmers and told them he did not believe in subsidizing ethanol, he stood in front of the urban league and told them he did not support affirmative action. What else do you want? None of our Presidents were perfect but McCain is coming onto his own and he very well could grow to equal Reagan depending on his ultimate path.

You have a choice. I respect your reservations but please remember our military. Don’t be a part of a group that could cast them into the hands of those who hate them. They have sacrifice more than all of us. We can not afford in this volatile world to have the military might of this nation emasculated by Obama. The left has done enough already please don’t help them further their goals.

If you don't want Obama as President, I suggest you support a conservative, like Bob Barr!!!
