Garad's Response

A few weeks ago we wrote an article to 'Garad,' who in reality works with TJ's Father.

Garad has replied, you can find that article here

Now I (Roark this time) will respond to that article.

OK, I'll respond here, your comments are in italics, and my answer follow them.

I thought it was decided by the delegates and super delegates. Who are these people anyway?

In the primaries the person who ends up running for the two main parties. In the general election each state has a number of electoral votes, which is equal to the amount of representatives plus senators.

It seems to me that tons of lies and deception from the right are flooding the airways trying to create a trail that suggest that there are some truth to it.

The lies that you have heard are all related to Sarah Palin. There is enough true stuff on Obama that nothing needs to be made up.

He did go to a Muslim school.
He did become friends with a convicted felon who funded his campaigns.
He did go to Church for 20 years and listen to racists America hating.
Just about everything you here about Obama is true.

Obama is a class act and has consistantly taken the high road like no other candidate that I have ever seen.

Did he take the high road when he forced the other candidates off the ballot in Illinois?
Did he take the high road when he refused to go to a military hospital?
Did he take the high road when he voted for infanticide?
Is he taking the high road knowingly lying to Americans about Economics?

I think if he were white, there would be a 20% lead over McCain, I really hate to say that because I am in no way a racist.

I disagree I think if he were white McCain would be up by at least 15 points. Why else would so many people want to vote for someone with absolutely no experience, and preaching the exact same socialist crap that Lyndon Johnson put in, which didn't work, 45 years ago, then calling it change?

People are attacking him and his charater because they have driven the country into the toilet and have nothing to say when it comes to what matters, the issues facing this country.

I haven't heard a lot of people attacking him, but then I don't listen to talk radio often. The media is madly in love with Obama, he's been on the cover of Times like 7 times in the past year. Listen to what the people who are attacking him are saying; they're probably correct.

The economy, huge deficit, Iraq, and where is the alquida?

Obama is in no way any answer for the economy, his socialistic theories have never worked anywhere, and can never work.

His whole basis is taxing more people, tell me how do you help the economy by taking money away form it? How can you call yourself moral if you want to take money from one class of people, by force, to give to another?

What about a woman's right to choose, human rights

I find it ironic that you put human rights in the same sentence as the horrific procedure that has stolen the rights of 40 million unborn children.

Tell me: why should a woman have a right to 'choose' whether or not her child lives? Should woman be able just say I can't take it and put her three year-old son to death? Where's the difference?

If any one has traveled internationally lately look at how we are percieved and a global basis.

I actually agree with this, but Obama is certainly not the answer. We need a president who is ready to follow the constitution, and remove our troops from every base not in the US.

We would hate any country who put a military base on our land against our will.

Bush has basically bankrupted our country.

Bush is only partly responsible for this, Clinton, the Fed and congress must also hold the blame.

The Fed needs to stop printing money and the congress needs to stop putting through unconstitutional bills that steal the money of the people.

Personally O don't care about her personal life but I think it is interesting that she fought to stop sex education in the schools in favor of teaching creationism.

I don't understand this sex education says wear a condom and creationism says God created man.

If you mean evolution, I believe they should both be taught, why would you not teach student s a possibility? It does not need to be endorsed.

Family values? Kind of hard to raise a family with her career.

I don't agree with this, she could stay in Alaska while governor and the Vice President doesn't really do anything except break a tie in the senate.

Experience? Virtually none. She just got her first passport to leave the country.

Regardless, of the fact that she has only been in office for two years, Obama has no executive experience and his federal experience consists of 3.5 years in the Senate, two of these were spent campaigning. As for Foreign Policy experience, who really has foreign policy experience before being president other than Secretaries of State? It isn't Biden and it sure as hell is not Obama.

Our country is in need of a major change!!!

This is probably true, but the change we need should come in the form of less government, not in the form of Big Brother.

Saving Garad, Saving America

By: TJ Madison
8/15/2008

If we can save Garad, we can save America! Now, who is Garad?

Garad is the type of American voter that will decide another close election. Unfortunately, like many, he is not an American that pays close attention to politics. He is busy with a career, marriage and maybe even three children. Who really can blame these people for not keeping that close an eye on political issues?

Let’s face it, election cycles have started earlier and earlier. It becomes boring, tedious and usually ugly. Have you met anybody who has actually said, “God, I can’t wait to vote for McCain or Obama?”

Less than 90 days from the election, Garad is a ‘soft’ Obama supporter. Which usually means: I’m supporting Obama, but I can’t give you a good reason why.

The ‘Garads’ will usually stay away from most political news and choose to vote on snippets, sound bites, or commercials by a political propagandist.

Advantage Barack Obama.

Why? Well, those of us who follow politics know that major media types are inherently ‘left-wing’, and will do there best to keep Obama in as much of a positive light as they possibly can. No, it’s not a ‘conspiracy’, it’s just a matter of fact that left-leaning young adults tend to choose major’s like journalism in college. (The trend right now is an 80/20 split of journalist favoring the Democrat over the Republican in national elections). Don’t be fooled into thinking that ideology doesn’t creep in to their ‘reporting’.

Another Obama advantage to garner the novice political voter, the masterful techniques and the carefully chosen words he uses while giving a speech. Words, ironically he can’t seem to find when someone asks him an unexpected question. Then you see him go from dignified statesman to bumbling incompetent.

So how are the believers of America’s Founders, you and me, going to convince the ‘Garads’, that a slick orator with some clever buzz words is not the person to make the United States a better, stronger or unified country?

First, the ‘Garads’ are usually good candidates themselves to vote for the Republican nominee. They’re intelligent; they work, pay too much in taxes, own a home and probably want the Federal government to keep out of their business.

Sounds pretty conservative to me!

Second, familiarize him with the radical past of Barack Obama. In spite of his ‘thin’ resume in politics, He sure has amassed a large amount of controversial figures in his political circle.

A book everyone should read, before voting for Obama is: The Obama Nation, by Jerome Corsi. Corsi began researching Obama’s personal and political background soon after Obama was elected to the U.S. Senate.

Read about Obama’s extensive connections with Islam and radical left-wing politics, from his father and stepfather’s Islamic backgrounds, to his Communist and Socialist mentors in Hawaii and Chicago. All of it factual, the book is abundantly sourced with over 600 footnotes.

Other disturbing discoveries include:

-Obama’s far-left domestic policy, his controversial votes on abortion, his opposition to the Second Amendment, his over-reaching plans for universal health care and his plan to tax American’s to fund a global poverty reduction program.

-His involvement in the slum-landlord empire of Chicago political fixer, Tony Rezko, who bankrolled initial campaigns and purchased Obama’s dream home.

-A naïve foreign policy, predicated on the reduction of the military, the eradication of nuclear weapons and an over confidence in the power of his personality, as if belief in change alone could somehow transform international politics.

Now don’t think this book will have any effect on the militant Obama supporter or hard leftist, but remember it’s the reasonable people like Garad who we’re reaching out to.

Honestly, I was not going to vote for John McCain two weeks ago and it’s a shame that we don’t have a legitimate small government candidate to vote for in the two major parties. Every week that goes by, and we find out more about this Democrat Emperor who has no clothes, I’ll be damned if I’m going to sit back and watch this ideological Marxist with radical-racial past, win the White House with out being challenged.
