Here's a very good, comprehensive outline of McCain's and Obama's positions
on a wide range of issues.
No mud slinging ... just the facts.

I found it very interesting. Overall, it clearly, honestly (and simply
stated) differentiates the two men.

My impression after reading it was to clearly see the two different "themes"
:

The sum of Obama's proposals equate to bigger government, government control
and higher taxes to pay for it.
McCain's proposals on the same issues focuses on less direct government
intervention, relying on some government mandates but with incentives and
programs to encourage private, non-government development of programs to
achieve the same goals.

McCain is just more of Bush: "trust" the free market to make it right.
Which means keep on bending over while the richest of the rich plunder
everyone else.

Here's how you can help yourself Harry. Don't bent over. Don't allow
yourself to be plundered. Be a man. Take care of yourself.

This week Americans decide.

Are they to serve government. (Obama)

Or is the government to serve the people (McCain)

It amazes me that given the current financial crisis was in fact caused by
government that so many would consider to yield their liberties for even
more government. For the lack of a better phrase, the herd mentality and
promise of easy money. Is your liberty so cheap?

The new USSR, United States Socialist Republic. Where the government fouls
up the currency and banking and nationalizes it for free easy fiat loans and
artificially cheap interest rates.

If ever I need the advice of a knucklehead whose lifetime achievement
was being accepted into the Navy, I'll let you know.

Oh..wait...I do need your advice. Before I winterize my lawn tractor
(when the leaves stop falling), I plan to put on a new set of blades.
The old blades have five seasons on them...should I just scrap them?

I get a kick out of people so naive that believe the free market had
anything to do with this. When interest rates inverted on inflation some 3
years ago it was where the free market left the banks. When you borrow
money today you are borrowing government fiat money, you are not borrowing
investors money.

For example. There are now two loan markets. One is government backed,
cheap at 4% that is easy cheap money for home debtors. Then there is the
loan free enterprise market where the rates start at 12% and getting
qualified means you have to be credit worthy.

There is no shortage of money to be borrowed, there is however a shortage of
those credit worthy and that will pay market rates. The government pulled
so hard on the interest lever they broke it and the currency and market.

Let's take this one step further.

Evidence:

Bush gave a speech. Just one speech at the controversial Bob Jones
University, but that was enough for the press to join him at Jones’
hip.

Now imagine if Bush hadn’t just given a speech, but also…

Was an active member of the church for 20-years

Was married by Bob Jones

Had his children baptized by Bob Jones

Gave tens-of-thousands to the church

Titled a book after one of Jones’ sermons

Had regularly listened to Jones’ sermons on tape while at grad school.

Had appointed Jones to his campaign

Funded his radical education activities thru foundation funds

Claimed Jones as his spiritual mentor

…and then claimed he was “only vaguely aware of Bob Jones University’s
policies and past”?

This is what we're dealing with.

Hope. Change. Nuance.
