Money and Obama?

Obama has set records with his fund raising. I'd like to know where it came from. I hear he's buying a half hour prime time program to further his campaign. Where is all this coming from. He says that McCain is protecting the rich by extending tax breaks from the wealthy, but he has come up with millions and millions more for his campaign. Who is giving it to him...? The poor can't afford it, and according to him, the rich don't want him in the White House.

So come on Obama, wheres the money coming from? Are you getting $100.00 dollar checks from homeless people, $1000.00 dollar checks from people losing their homes? Something smells like rotten fish to me. It really sounds like foreign money. I'm not accusing, just saying what it sounds like. Early in your campaign you said withdraw all American troops home, cut the military in half, the nuclear arsenal in half, and stop all development of new weapons. ( I saved that u-tube speech) Now you temporize, and say more what the people want...A strong military, and more money and benefits for that strong military. Wow, can you ever waggle what you say. Then and now.

You mention a strong economy, but your programs will leave us deeper in debt than ever before. The best economists say somewhere in the neighborhood of 13 Trillion dollars by 2012.
You know, we wouldn't need a space program if you piled all that much money in one spot...We could climb it to the moon. While we would all like to see universal health care, we should realize that someone has to pay for it.

Meanwhile; you are spending money on your campaign that staggers my imagination. Where does it come from..? I see,... the wealthy that you want to tax so heavily, are lining up to give you millions of dollars so you can punish them for having money. Sure...That makes sense. It makes one wonder if you have sold something worth that much. I just hope it's not America. It seem as though the wealthy that you say McCain wants to protect has gone nuts, and supports your program.

I have always espoused the idea of a flat tax... .05% when you earn and .05% when your spend. That would support almost every program needed. Maybe not all that is wanted, but all that are needed. And HEAVY punishment for those that would cheat.

Senator Obama...You frighten me.

Without any reasonable explanation, the mind just fills in the most cyncial possible one.

He's getting money "selling" campaign shirts and crap from his online store which goes to fund his campaign. Of course, that allows for anyone in the world to buy / contribute to his campaign from ChiComs to multi million dollar donations from George Soros.

And also, of course, the FEC isn't going to investigate it after the election is done. Should Obama win, you think campaign indiscretions would cause a recall? What is the process if they find a candidate who won was "cheating"?
