ECLECTIC ELECTIONS EMINENCES # 3 -- O IS FOR OH NO OBAMA

Okay,so I'm not thrilled with either choice, but there's no way I'm voting for Obama. At least McCain made the choice a bit more palatable by choosing Palin. I don't have to hold my nose so much, and I can vote FOR a candidate. 

It also helps the comparison / contrast given at Saddleback Church courtesy of Rick Warren's forum, and for me, most especially in their response to Warren's question, "At what point does a baby get human rights?"

Obama said that to answer that question with specifity was "above my pay grade." McCain said without hesitation that a baby's rights begin at conception.

But are there any other reasons to vote for or against one or the other?

The fact that the entire liberal media complex is in the tank for Obama, and have absolutely no shame in making no bones about it, is a strike against the big O, in my book. (Even though the Obama campaign has treated the media as so many lapdogs, unless individual members voice support for McCain, then it's, "Off the plane with you, pal. and don't let the door hit you on the way out.

So is the fact that Louis Farrakhan has anointed Obama the Messiah in his endorsement.

So is the fact that for 20 years he thought Jeremiah Wright's views were right and proper and decent and good. And it took a lot for him to finally repudiate the man and his racist, anti-American views.

Add to that the fact that if you speak negatively against him you are labeled a bigot. Call me guilty I guess, even though I wouldn't care if he's black, green or purple. His color is flaming liberal-socialist-Marxist, and that just clashes with my view of the American picture.

Add to that the fact he can paint it anyway he wants, but he has had a close association with a known and unrepentant terrorist.

And why should we overlook a member of his family from Africa living here illegally? I don't. (At least, there's only one we know about.)

But that's just me.
