According to a famous quote by MARK TWAIN: “IGNORANCE IS THE TRUE DESTRUCTION OF MANKIND.

And unfortunately, this is what awaits our Country if BARACK OBAMA is elected president of our great nation, the U.S.A.

People who will give him their vote, are in complete oblivion and “IGNORANCE” of his true ideals and politics, and think he will be able to solve all our problems with his “Magic Wand”,— just like Fidel Castro did with the people of Cuba with false promises which only lead to the destruction of a great country.

These people have no idea that his intentions of “Taking from the rich to give to the poor”,- is nothing else than “TRUE SOCIALISM – COMMUNISM” in all the sense of the word.

Socialism is the first step in the process of developing the production forces to achieve abundance and changing the mental and spiritual outlook of the people.-

This is the necessary transition stage from capitalism to COMMUNISM.-

Socialism wants to eliminate PRIVATE PROPERTY, which is the means of production. This kind of private property is not used for enjoyment, but to produce consumer’s goods, create employment, stimulate the economy and free enterprise.

In other words, the ideas of BARACK OBAMA is to TAX THE RICH to give to the poor.-

What so many people do not understand is that without the rich, we would not have free enterprise, and without free enterprise there would be NO factories, businesses,

Industries, stores, etc., – bringing the unemployment rates to sky high dimensions.

This, in other words, is a moderate form of COMMUNISM, and Communism is nothing but DISASTER AFTER DISASTER.-

Socialism and Communism are more accurately called economic and social systems, rather than political systems. However, the real world application of the economics behind socialism and Communism requires a particular form of government able to support it,- and this is where OBAMA comes into the spectrum.

In the Soviet Union, China, Cuba,- just to name a few,- human rights were overlooked in order to create a “Strong Communist Nation”.-

In each of these countries, the goal of turning previously dynamic and growing economies into powerful Industrial Giants, ruled only BY the government and FOR the government, –led only to famine, total chaos, recessions, – since the people refused to work without any personal benefits or incentives, and grew tired of further suffering.-

We have the best example of this in CUBA, who — after 50 years– is still suffering from hunger, lack of medications, total control by the government, no human rights, total misery and corruption, among many other things.- This country is falling apart, piece by piece, millions have tried or have escaped,– preferring death in the middle of the ocean, to continue living in a Country that has been transformed in true HELL,.-

Is this what we want for our beloved Nation ???

Promises are just promises, words are just words, and this is all OBAMA has to offer.-

I truly believe people have to learn about many of these issues before forming a precise opinion of whom they will vote for.

After all, the future of our Country depends on this.-

It is 7:18 pm PST on October 7, 2008. A miracle has occurred. John McCain gave Barack Obama a little credit in the debate tonight and said “I agree with Barack”. It didn’t happen once in the first debate. I am amazed. He “reached across the aisle” during the debate. I feel better now.

You have to wonder if McCain and Obama even like each other. They are both twisting the other’s words in ways that just aren’t fair. I don’t think I could do that to someone I like.

What did we learn tonight?

Both men like to talk a lot. It doesn’t seem that either has come in under their time limit on any question. Heck, they couldn’t even answer a yes/no question with a yes or no. Though to be fair, it really shouldn’t have been a yes/no question.

John McCain does seem to have a bit more of a sense of humor than Barack Obama. Every once in awhile McCain would crack a joke, not so much with Obama.

Everyone is McCain’s friend or hero, especially Joe Lieberman. Every time McCain pointed to his bipartisan allies, he would point to Lieberman. It seemed that all the questions that were asked are good questions. McCain probably needs to vary his responses a little. Just a thought.

But, most of all, we learned that they don’t agree on many things. Now we have to figure out which one of these men we agree with the most.

Though, one thing we can agree on is going to 104inc.com. It’s a place that will give you answers straight and to the point — unlike most politicians.

An Open Letter to Barack Obama (by Michael Master):

The New York Times carried a story on Saturday, October 4, 2008 that proved you had a significantly closer relationship with Bill Ayers than what you previously admitted.   While the issue of your relationship is of concern, the greater concern is that you lied to America about it.

The Chicago Sun reported on May 8, 2008 that FBI records showed that you had a significantly closer relationship with Tony Rezko than what you previously admitted.   In the interview, you said that you only saw Mr. Rezko a couple of times a year.   The FBI files showed that you saw him weekly.  While the issue of your relationship is of concern, the greater concern is that you lied to America about it.

Your speech in Philadelphia on March 18, 2008 about ‘race’ contradicted your statement to Anderson Cooper on March 14 when you said that you never heard Reverend Wright make his negative statements about white America    While your attendance at Trinity Church for 20 years is of concern, the greater concern is that you lied to America on March 14.

In your 1st debate with John McCain, you said that you never said that you would meet with the leaders of Cuba, Venezuela, Iran, and North Korea without ‘preparations’ at lower levels … Joe Biden repeated your words in his debate with Sarah Palin … while the video tape from your debate last February clearly shows that you answered ‘I would’ to the question of meeting with those leaders within 12 months without ‘any’ preconditions.  While your judgment about meeting with enemies of the USA without pre-conditions is of concern, the greater concern is that you lied to  America in the debate with McCain.

On July 14, 2008, you said that you always knew that the surge would work while the video tapes of you from more than a year ago show that you stated that the surge would not work.   While your judgment about military strategy as a potential commander in chief is of concern, the greater concern is that you lied to America on July 14.

You now claim that your reason for voting against funding for the troops was because the bill did not include a time line for withdrawal while the video tapes of you from more than a year ago show that you voted against additional funding because you wanted our troops to be removed immediately … not in 16 months after the 2008 election as you now claim.  While your judgment about removing our troops unilaterally in 2007 is of concern, the greater concern is that you lied to America about your previous position.

You claim to have a record of working with Republicans while the record shows that the only bill that you sponsored with a Republican was with Chuck Lugar … and it failed.  The record shows that you vote 97% in concert with the Democrat party and that you have the most liberal voting record in the Senate.  You joined Republicans only 13% of the time in your votes and those 13%  were only after agreement from the Democrat party.  While it is of concern that you fail to include conservatives in your actions and that you are such a liberal, the greater concern is that you distorted the truth.

In the 2 primary debates of last February, 2008, you claimed to have talked with a ‘Captain’ of a platoon in Afghanistan ‘THE OTHER DAY’ when in fact you had a discussion in 2003 with a Lieutenant who had just been deployed to Afghanistan .  You lied in that debate.

In your debates last spring, you claimed to have been a ‘professor of Constitutional law’ when in fact you have never been a professor of Constitutional law.  In this last debate, you were careful to say that you ‘taught a law class’ and never mentioned being a ‘professor of Constitutional law.’  You lied last spring.

You and Joe Biden both claimed that John McCain voted against additional funding for our troops when the actual records show the opposite. You distorted the truth.

You and Joe Biden claim that John McCain voted against funding for alternate energy sources 20 times when the record shows that John McCain specifically voted against funding for bio fuels, especially corn .. and he was right …  corn is too expensive at producing ethanol,  and using corn to make ethanol increased the price of corn  from $2 a bushel to $6 a bushel for food.   You distorted the truth.

You and Joe Biden claim that John McCain voted like both of you for a tax increase on those making as little as $42,000 per year while the voting record clearly shows that John McCain did not vote as you and Joe Biden.   You lied to America .

You and Joe Biden claim that John McCain voted with George W. Bush 90% of the time when you know that Democrats also vote 90% of the time with the President (including Joe Biden) because the vast majority of the votes are procedural.  You are one of the few who has not voted 90% of the time with the president because you have been missing from the Senate since the day you got elected.   While your absence from your job in the Senate is of concern, the greater concern is that you spin the facts.

You did not take an active role in the rescue plan.  You claimed that the Senate did not need you while the real reason that you abstained was because of your close relationships with the executives of Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, Countrywide, and Acorn … who all helped cause the financial problems of today … and they all made major contributions to your campaign.   While your relationship with these executives and your protection of them for your brief 3 years in the Senate (along with Barney Frank, Chuch Schumer, Maxine Waters, and Chris Dodd) is of concern, the greater concern is that you are being deceitful.

You forgot to mention that you personally represented Tony Rezko and Acorn.  Tony Rezko, an Arab and close friend to you, was convicted of fraud in Chicago real estate transactions that bilked millions of tax dollars from the Illinois government for renovation projects that you sponsored as a state senator … and Acorn has been convicted of voter fraud, real estate sub prime loan intimidation, and illegal campaign contributions.  Tony Rezko has contributed hundreds of thousands of dollars to your political campaigns.  You personally used your political positions to steer money to both Tony Rezko and Acorn and you used Acorn to register thousands of phony voters for Democrats and you.  While your relationships with Rezko and Acorn are of concern, the greater concern is that you omitted important facts about your relationships with them to America .

During your campaign, you said: ‘typical white person.’  ‘they cling to their guns and religion.’  ‘they will say that I am black.’  You played the race card.  You tried to label any criticism about you as racist.  You divide America .

You claim that you will reduce taxes for 95% of America , but you forgot to tell America that those reductions are after you remove the Bush tax reductions.   You have requested close to $1 Billion in earmarks and several million for Acorn.   Your social programs will cost America $1 Trillion per year and you claim that a reduction in military spending ($100 billion for Iraq ) can pay for it.   While your economic plan of adding 30% to the size of our federal government is of concern, the greater concern is that you are deceiving America .

The drain to America ’s economy by foreign supplied oil is $700 Billion per year (5% of GDP) while the war in Iraq is $100 Billion (less than 1% of GDP).  You voted against any increases to oil exploration for the last 3 years and any expansion of nuclear facilities.  Yet today, you say that you have always been for more oil and more nuclear.   You are lying to America .

Mr. Obama, you claimed that you ‘changed’ your mind about public financing for your campaign because of the money spent by Republican PACs in 2004.   The truth is that the Democrat PACs in 2004, 2006, and 2008  spent twice as much as the Republican PACs (especially George Soros and MoveOn.org).    You are lying to America

Mr. Obama, you have done nothing to stop the actions of the teachers’ union and college professors in the USA .  They eliminated religion from our history.  They teach pro gay agendas and discuss sex with students as young as first grade.  They bring their personal politics into the classrooms.  They disparage conservatives.  They brainwash our children.  They are in it for themselves ….. not America     Are you reluctant to condemn their actions because teachers/professors and the NEA contribute 25% of all money donated to Democrats and none to Republicans?  You are deceiving America .

Oh Mr. Obama, Teddy Roosevelt said about a hundred years ago that we Americans should first look at the character of our leaders before anything else.

Your character looks horrible.  While you make good speeches, motivating speeches, your character does not match your rhetoric.  You talk the talk but do not walk the walk.

1.  You lied to America .  You lied many times.  You distorted facts.  You parsed your answers like a lawyer.

2. You distorted the record of John McCain in your words and in your advertisements.

3.  You had associations with some very bad people for your personal political gains and then lied about those associations.

4.  You divide America about race and about class.

Now let me compare your record of lies, distortions, race baiting, and associations to John McCain:   War hero.  Annapolis graduate with ‘Country first.’   Operational leadership experience like all 43 previously elected presidents of the USA as a Navy Officer for 22 years.  26 years in the Senate.  Straight talk.  Maverick.  54% of the time participated on bills with Democrats.  Never asked for an earmark. The only blemish on his record is his part in the Keating 5 debacle about 25 years ago.

Mr. Obama, at Harvard Law School, you learned that the end does not justify the means.  You learned that perjury, false witness, dishonesty, distortion of truth are never tolerated.  Yet, your dishonesty is overwhelming.  Your dishonesty is tremendously greater than the dishonesty that caused the impeachment and disbarment of Bill Clinton.  Your dishonesty is tremendously greater than the dishonesty of Scooter Libby. You should be ashamed.

Mr. Obama, it is time for us Americans to put aside our differences on political issues and vote against you because of your dishonest character.   It is time for all of us Americans to put aside our political issues and vote for America first. It is time for America to vote for honesty.

Any people who vote for you after understanding that you are dishonest should be ashamed of themselves for making their personal political issues more important than character.  Would these same people vote for the anti-Christ if the anti-Christ promised them riches?   Would they make a golden calf while Moses was up the mountain?   Would they hire someone for a job if that someone lied in an interview?  … of course not.  So why do some of these people justify their votes for you even though they know you are dishonest? Why do they excuse your dishonesty?   Because some of these people are frightened about the future, the economy, and their financial security …. and you are praying on their fears with empty promises  … and because some (especially our young people) are consumed by your wonderful style and promises for ‘change’ like the Germans who voted for Adolf Hitler in 1932.  The greed/envy by Germans in 1932 kept them from recognizing Hitler for who he was.   They loved his style.  Greed and envy are keeping many Americans from recognizing you .. your style has camouflaged your dishonesty …. but many of us see you for who you really are   … and we will not stop exposing who you are every day,  forever if it is necessary.

Mr. Obama, you are dishonest.  Anyone who votes for you is enabling dishonesty.

Mr.  Obama , America cannot trust that you will put America first in your decisions about the future.

Mr. Obama, you are not the ‘change’ that America deserves.  We cannot trust you.

Mr. Obama, You are not ready and not fit to be commander in chief.

Mr. Obama, John McCain does not have as much money as your campaign to refute all of your false statements.  And for whatever reasons, the mainstream media will not give adequate coverage or research about your lies, distortions, word parsing, bad associations, race bating, lack of operational leadership experience, and general dishonest character.  The media is diverting our attention to your relationships and ignoring the fact that you lied about those relationships.   The fact that you lied is much more important than the relationships themselves …. just like with Bill Clinton and Richard Nixon .. Monica Lewinski and Watergate were not nearly as bad as the fact that those gentlemen lied about the events …  false witness … perjury …  your relationships and bad judgement are bad on their own …. but your lies are even worse.

Therefore, by copy of this memo, all who read this memo are asked to send it to everyone else in America before it is too late.  We need to do the job that the media will not do.  We need to expose your dishonesty so that every person in America  understands who you really are before election day.

Mr. Obama, in a democracy, we get what we deserve.  And God help America if we deserve you.
