why do you disagree with obama?
I was just wondering on what issues you disagree with Obama? I've taken a pretty objective view of the issues and I think he is slightly more conservative than Mccain on most of the issues. Please no rants... just opinions based on the issues. The real ones too. Under president Bush the government grew more than under any other president so please don't mention socialism.
umm... our country is moving toward socialism with mccain or obama. You cannot deny that and at least Obama knows it. The free market is corrupted and has no sense of morality and regulation is justified. Laissez-faire economics simply do not work. Thats why I didn't want to bring up economics because these so-called conservatives have been expanding this government while calling for deregulation.

You claim that Obama is more conservative than McCain, but you don't offer any examples.
Contrary to what the left convinced most Americans, McCain is not Bush. You are right that McCain is not a true conservative, but to claim that Obama is more conservative is crazy.
If Obama's plans come to fruition then our government will grow even more. He wants to nationalize health care - that alone would likely dwarf the growth under Bush. He wants to create a civilian military like force. He wants to raise capital gains taxes, income taxes, payroll taxes, etc.
You state not to mention socialism, but facts are facts. Obama's tax and redistribute plans are socialistic. His health care plans are socialistic.
Obama claimed many times that he will cut taxes to 95% of the workers. Please explain how he can do this when 40% of the workers do not pay any income tax. What he really is trying to do is increase the taxes on the higher income earners (who already pay a hugely disproportionate share of the taxes) and is giving a portion of that to those in the lower income brackets. Most people call that welfare.

Cuz he promised change but so far is bringing us nothing but a recycled Clinton administration. The only thing that's changed is Obama.

His socialist (yes, I know, I said it) agenda of "spreading the wealth" is my biggest complaint.
He wants to cap emissions to an extent that the coal industry will go bankrupt, causing my electricity costs to go up.
Also, I don't see why you don't want any complaints about socialism related to Obama just because "Under president Bush the government grew more than under any other president". I don't agree with most of the socialist stuff that's been going on lately, like bailouts.

Obama has no positions that mean anything. He is all over the map on positions.
