In 2004, I took my mom (Old and sick), RIP, to Cuba to see her brother, my uncle (Old and sick). I made all the arrangements through the Internet. The Visa application through the State Department took 21 days. It turns out that Cuban-Americans can go visit their family in Cuba with a State Department issued Humanitarian Visa. I made the plane reservations through a travel agency on-line and we flew from Jacksonville to Miami, then to Habana, Cuba via Delta. It was E-A-S-Y and legal. So Obama's attempts to bring us closer to ties with Cuba so that we can visit our relatives is BS. There is another motive. Obama was raised by hard line leftist socialists and educated by Marxist-leaning professors and community organizers. Of course he's going to want to play patty-cake with dictators. They are like-minded: Socialistic views where the government controls the people and their money and everyone has the same thing, because the wealth has been collected and spread evenly, no matter how hard one person works or how little the other person works. There is nothing to gain from removing the US/Cuban embargo and kissing up to Raul and Fidel. It is not going to allow my uncle to freely hop on a plane and visit me for vacation. My uncle is not going to be able to get more Ibuprofen for his arthritis. He is not going to be able to speak against the Castro regime without getting shot or going to prison. The money is just going to keep lining the pockets of the Communist sympathizers, the military police and the Castro brothers.
In 2004, when I went to Cuba, the streets had huge craters in them. The buildings were crumbling and people were afraid to speak their minds in public. The only area that looked good was the route from the airport to the tourist hotels. Meanwhile, my uncle and his extended family got their food rationed and had to provide their own sheets, pillow cases and toiletries if hospitalized. The grocery store shelves were empty. The only stores filled to the brim were the stores accepting only American dollars. They had everything that we do. But without American dollars, the Cuban people can't shop there. That's why I send my uncle money, even though I know that the Communist regime takes their cut. Obama is telling a big fat lie to the American people concerning Cuba and I'm having Jimmy Carter flashbacks. The Castro regime will knife us (USA) in the back eventually as a result of Obama's friendliness. Remember the Mariel boatlift?

NO BAILOUT FOR THE BIG THREE
The United Auto Workers (UAW) union and executives of the Big Three Detroit automakers, were pushing for handouts in the form of our tax dollars.
Oh, HELL NO! Secretary Henry Paulson said today that the Bush administration does not support broadening the financial industry bailout to include automakers.
Instead, Paulson said Congress should change the $25-billion loan program for retooling factories to speed that money to the industry. "I know that automakers are important to the U.S. economy. We care about our automakers," Paulson said. But "the intent of the TARP," or troubled asset relief program, "was to deal with the financial industry," he said. Noting that Congress had already approved the retooling loans, "we have a viewpoint that that legislation could be modified." Paulson also said that any help for the industry "has to lead to long-term viability."
Thank you, Secretary Paulson for using common sense! Common sense is becoming extinct in D.C., where politicians are too loose with OUR tax dollars.
The crap trifecta (Obama, Pelosi & Reid) was really pushing this: Comrade-elect Obama was for the auto bailout. House Speaker Politburo Pelosi and Senate Majority Leader Reich Reid were drafting legislation that would've dumped $25 billion into the Big Three.
Miss Glock agrees with Paulson. Sorry Charlie... allow automakers to declare bankruptcy.
PEOPLE: Bankruptcy does not mean the end of a company. Under Chapter 11, the bankruptcy judge weighs the different interests of a company's creditors, labor unions, shareholders, etc. The resulting company will emerge leaner yet stronger.
D.C. was pushing this because bankruptcy would alter union contracts. A bailout won't. Labor unions spent over $385 million to elect Comrade-Elect Obama and other Democrats last week. They didn't pay out without expecting something in return. Let's see who else begs for money next.

CNN AND RICK SANCHEZ FLABBERGASTED
Anchor for CNN, Rick Sanchez, was so surprised by the answer of these three interviewees, that he dropped his notes! It's good to see that not all black voters have been duped by the Obama-Marxist propaganda machine. I am an American, a thinker and a voter. Don't allow our country to take a socialist/communist turn by voting for Obama. Do the right thing, vote for McCain/Palin. Vote for the guy who is going to stimulate our economy and create more jobs. Vote for the guy that believes in free market/capitalism. Vote for the guy that believes that the money you make should be yours and yours alone. McCain was a U.S. Navy fighter pilot in the Vietnam War, he was shot down, taken prisoner, beaten, tortured and left to die. He survived. He went on to serve in U.S. Congress for two decades, fighting democrats and republicans alike, always placing our country first. Obama was... ahh... ahh... Soaking up communist propaganda, doing a lot of blow and community "organizing". When he got a chance to do the right thing as a U.S. Senator, he was ineffective, voting "present" instead of taking action. Call me crazy, but I want a real man in the white house, not a fool. With President McCain, our enemies around the world will quiver, our allies will respect us. With Obama, our enemies will celebrate and our allies will laugh at us. VOTE McCAIN/PALIN 2008

So, you have worked hard, made many sacrifices and maybe bought that dream home or opened that small business. You are not rich, but you are comfortable and your business is thriving despite the bad economy. Here comes Obama... He raises your capital gains tax and your income tax because there are many less fortunate.
Obama wants to: "Share the wealth around!" It's YOUR money, not theirs. Your HARD earned money. Obama doesn't feel you should keep it. If you make it, he'll take it and he'll: "Share, because it's fair." When he says 95% of the people will get a tax credit, he isn't talking about YOU. He's talking about the crack-head in front of the convenience store. Or the lady on welfare with the 6 kids from different baby daddies. In order for 95% of the people to get money for nothing, YOU will have to pay for it. So, as you drive by the convenience stores and under the overpasses and by the food stamp offices, I want YOU to wave to your new dependants. Oh, and because your money is being TAKEN from you by Obama, you won't have enough money left to give at your church.

A TERRORIST BY ANY OTHER NAME: AYERS
American unrepentant terrorist, William Ayers, may be considered a legitimate "professor" by Obama, but in my book, once a terrorist, always a terrorist. Especially when this terrorist, oops, I mean, professor, (William Ayers), stated during 9-11, that he didn't set off enough bombs. What a pathetic human being. William Ayers should apologize to the American people for setting bombs and killing people during the 1970's.
What should be more disturbing to you are two things:
1. This guy is teaching our children in a university.
2. This guy is a friend and colleague of Obama. America should wake up and take charge.
On November 4, vote for your freedom. Vote McCain/Palin.

BARACK IS JUST LIKE FIDEL
I was only 2 months old when Fidel Castro took power in Cuba. Because I was premature, the doctors wouldn't allow my parents to vaccinate me with the adult-dosage vaccine required to leave the country. So, we were stuck in Communist Cuba until I turned two years old in 1961, when I was strong enough to survive the vaccine. Of course I was too young to remember how I lost my land, my country, my soul. I grew up hearing about it from my parents, my aunts, uncles, parents' friends and at every Cuban coffee window in Miami. The bottom line is this: People in Cuba in the 1950's were fed up with the current state of affairs. Along came a young, handsome, eloquent, intelligent lawyer-turned community organizer (RADICAL-ACTIVIST). At first, the Cuban people felt hope and were for change. Once Fidel took power, then the people realized that he had taken their power and freedom. That was the change. I have Fidel flashbacks every time Obama opens his mouth. Every time he and his militant wife bump fists, I hear thunder. The thunder of doom. Now my country and my soul are America. I've been here 48 years. I have voted in ever single major election since I turned 18. I love America. I don't want to lose her too. So, don't be a fool. Don't let history repeat itself. On November 4, vote McCain/Palin.

Obama's Criminal Friends
Obama's political preferences are radical leftist and socialist.
Obama has aligned himself with American and foreign terrorists, criminals, radical left-wing nuts and communists. Why do you think Fidel and Raul Castro and Hugo Chavez endorse Obama? Lastly, he will increase our taxes so the Obama Administration can hand out more welfare. Hard working everyday people are the ones that will pay for the raised taxes and all the social programs he wants to put in place. His cabinet will be full of other left-wing liberal socialists that will make this country 100 times worse than the useless Carter Administration of the 1970's.
Here's the real story about the people Obama has chosen to work and socialize with in his adult life:
William Ayers and Bernadine Dohrn: These prominent members of the violent leftist organization known as the Weather Underground have taken responsibility for at least 12 bombings, including the New York City police headquarters in 1970, the U.S. Capitol building in 1971 and the Pentagon in 1972. As Ayers told the New York Times recently, "I don't regret setting bombs. ... I feel we didn't do enough." Ayers and Obama are currently personal friends, and they etched their political alliance in stone when Obama visited the couple at their home in 1995, secured their support and received financial help for his political campaign. This alliance ultimately provided the platform his for presidential aspirations.
Rev. Jeremiah Wright: By now everybody knows some of the most defamatory anti-American declarations made by Obama's black separatist pastor. Rev. Wright screamed from the podium that we shouldn't embrace the motto "God Bless America" but instead the decree of "God Damn America." Rev. Wright said the blame for the 9/11 terrorist attacks lies with the United States, and it was an incident of "chickens coming home to roost." Barack Obama at first tried to downplay his 20-year association with Rev. Wright, but the facts speak clearly.
Jodie Evans: Obama filed a report with the FEC revealing that one of his campaign finance bundlers is none other than Jodie Evans, a radical, anti-American activist who helped orchestrate a scheme that provided $600,000 in aid to Islamic terrorists in Iraq. When she wasn't determinedly undermining U.S. troops in Iraq, Evans was working to help advance the anti-American Marxist regimes of Fidel Castro in Cuba and Hugo Chavez in Venezuela. Evans isn't just a Barack Obama fundraising bundler; she also put together Obama's first Hollywood fundraiser and launched the Code Pink "Listen Hillary" campaign against Obama's chief Democratic opponent, Hillary Clinton.
