I agree with the overall message you are conveying, although as Repug point out, some of your ideas are over-generalized.
Ultimately, Obama represents the epitome of creeping socialism -- and in times of economic downturns/stagnation/disparity, socialism sounds pretty good to the average idiot American. My number one fear for America is NOT global warming, it's NOT the war in Iraq, it's NOT any of the current hot-button issues. Rather, my largest fear for America's long term longevity is creeping socialism. Words cannot express how very much I hate socialism, and the idea that it is infiltrating America.
We have an enormous deficit, an energy "crisis", a social security system guaranteed to collapse within our lifetime, and a whole lot of other fucked up shit happening right now. Who is going to pay for that? If Obama has his way, the educated and hard-working Americans will. He actually wants the government to help bail-out the people who's mortgages have been foreclosed? Fuck that. I'm in favor of prosecuting the people who were responsible for shady mortgage dealings, but the majority of these fucking idiots who were foreclosed upon, were simply living beyond their means. Fuck those motherfucking idiots. Fuck them. I understand that the situation is obviously more complex than that -- mortgage backed securities and securitized investment vehicles obviously exacerbated the situation.
Regardless, Obama wants to bail those idiots out, which is the exact type of creeping socialism that I fear the most. It sends a message to all the people who live within their means, and who pay their mortgages, that they are idiots for being responsible. Why be responsible when some douchebag named Barrack will bail you out?
Don't even get me started on socialized healthcare. Goddamnit I hate Obama.
