OBAMA A JOB KILLING MACHINE

One of the amazing things about this election is that there are so many people out there who are eager to vote for Obama are people who are very concerned about their jobs ... and yet Obama is by far the greater threat to their job security of the two. Just two examples:

  1. Obama wants to raise taxes on the very people who we depend on for 70% of existing jobs and 80% of new jobs. Obama hides these tax increases behind his class warfare rhetoric saying that he is only going to raise taxes on people who make over $250,000 a year. The problem here is most of America's small businessmen and women fall smack dab into this territory. They run a small business, they employ several people, and they report all of their business income on their personal tax returns. Just what do you think happens when their taxes go up? Do they take the hit themselves? Not if they can help it, they don't. They look for ways to cut businesses expenses to compensate for the tax increase. Well, guess what? You're a business expense. Good luck with that.
     
  2. Obama wants to eliminate secret ballots in union elections, and he has the full Democrat congress ready to go along. This will mean that the Democrat's precious unions will be able to organize a workplace simply by intimidating a majority of the workers to sign a petition saying they want to unionize? Secret ballot? No way! Now when this so-called "Card Check" bill passes businesses are going to be looking for an escape valve ... a way to avoid having to deal with a union workplace. After all, we see how it worked out for the American auto industry. How do you escape? You pack up and move to a more business-friendly location. Millions of jobs have already fled our shores to escape our punishing tax system. Now will millions more run for the hills to escape forced-unionization? Businesses that can't flee? They'll be looking for ways to increase automation and reduce the number of employees. Count on it.

But that's OK. Obama has the rhetoric. He has the narrative. He has celebrity worship and mass hysteria behind him. It's going to be an interesting four (or two) years.

CASEY ANTHONY

This ditz may be charged with murder by a grand jury in Orlando today. Good. May she never see another day of freedom. Why has this asinine charade gone on for so long?

VOTER VERIFICATION – WHO COULD BE AGAINST IT?

ACORN is really in the news. That's a good thing. People are starting to understand that this corrupt organization – an organization of which The Chosen One was a big part – has a long history of encouraging and enabling voter fraud across the country.

This is just a quick note to ask you to observe that there is really one political party that gets it's shorts in a wad when officials try to verify the identity and the eligibility of voters; and that would be the Democrat-ACORN party. Don't you wonder just why that is? If you don't they YOU shouldn't be voting.


OBAMA TO THE RESCUE

Obama laid out his rescue plan for the middle class. Yep, the middle class. These are the people that are going to get our economy going again, that are going to provide the jobs for you, the ones that have been paying too much in taxes while the evil rich fail to pay their fair share.

So here are some of the highlights of Obama's great plan to save the middle class. Oh and by the way, this will be paid for increasing taxes on people making over $250,000 a year, closing tax loopholes and imposing windfall taxes on oil companies. So let me get this straight, you are going to tax the high achievers in this country to pay for a plan to 'rescue' the middle class? Sounds like class warfare to me. But what do I know?

Here's the menu:

-A tax credit for businesses who hire new employees. How about lowering taxes on these businesses from the get go? Let them keep more of their money and perhaps they'll start creating jobs again.

-Eliminating all capital gains taxes on investments in small businesses and start ups. Again .. why not eliminate all capital gains taxes? Here's a little secret. Most investments in small businesses are made at the personal level in one's own business .. and capital gains taxes aren't a part of the picture. This is a meaningless solution that sounds good to the government educated dumb masses.

-Fast track loan guarantees for the auto industry so they can build energy-efficient cars. In other words ... sort of a bailout. How long did the automakers see this coming? Let the marketplace chose the winners and losers here .. not the government. If they fail, someone will step in to fill their shoes. Also, we get rid of a lot of union labor this way.

-Save jobs by creating another government program: a Jobs and Growth Fund, which will give money to states and local communities for pork barrel projects. No comment needed here.

-Cut taxes for 95% of workers (we've been through this one) and pass a plan to send out those welfare checks ASAP. Classic class warfare based on wealth envy.

-Extend and expand unemployment benefits and stop making them pay taxes on unemployment insurance benefits. I agree with the no taxes on benefits part ... but at what point do we stop the free ride?

-No fines or penalties to withdraw up to 15% from your IRA or 401k. This is McCain's idea. Glad Obama is on board.

-Cities thinking of raising property taxes to pay for services, no need to worry ... the federal government (taxpayers) will be there to make sure you don't hike up taxes or, god forbid, be forced to adhere to a budget. Sounds like more centralization of government to me.

-A three month moratorium on foreclosures (something that Obama once called a "disastrous" plan). Look, many of these homeowners need to be renters. Get them out of their homes and into an apartment somewhere.

-The Treasury should "help unfreeze markets" for individual mortgages. Oh and student loans. Oh and car loans. Oh and don't forget credit card loans. How do you unfreeze? You buy up the bad loans. Nice plan.

This is the type of plan that comes from someone who believes that America is great because of government. My guess is that you have a different idea as to the greatness of America.

THIS IS RICH

So Barack Obama has been stumping in Ohio ... and the editors of the The Blade in Toledo, Ohio had a very important question for him to answer: "Do all Americans who want to work have the right to a job where they live?" According to the editor-in-chief, John Robinson Block, this is an important question to all Toledoans and all Americans.

You know why this question was asked, don't you? That would be because there are jobs available for many unemployed Ohio residents ... but they have to pack some luggage and load up the U-Haul to get them. This, according to Block, is wrong. The government should somehow guarantee to every American that they can first decide where they want to live – an then the government will make sure that there is a job there for them. A RIGHT to a job where you live? What a concept!

Just imagine for a second if this paper in Ohio got its way ... if this is really the way the people in America feel and will vote in just a few days – do the people of this country really want a return of FDR style government? Do they really want a second Bill of Rights? Are you telling me that you people truly believe that you would be better off with more government in your life? Where the government protects your right to have a job, own a home, seek medical care, get an education ... where does it end?

A QUESTION FOR ACORN

So we have yet another ACORN outrage story. This time we have a family in Connecticut who is shocked to learn that their 7-year-old daughter had been registered to vote by ACORN. Then we learn that the girl may have been registered by a "drug-addicted relative." Gee, that makes me feel a lot better.

A question for ACORN ... what do you gain by registering dead people, fake people, young people, famous people, felons ... what do you gain by filling out fraudulent registration cards? Do you get the satisfaction that it makes your candidate, Barack Obama, seem more popular? Do you feel like you are doing the Lord's work? Do you think that somehow your efforts will be rewarded by the Chosen One himself?

If you can't meet your quotas of qualified voters, then maybe you should take up a different profession. Maybe community organizing isn't for you.

OK ... now let me answer the question; let me tell you what ACORN gets. The plan here is to flood voter registration offices with so many applications that it will be impossible for the registration officials to decide which are valid and which are not. The goal is chaos on election day – and Democrats ready to raise the roof if anything is done to seek out unqualified voters and send them home. Chaos works in favor of the ACORN/Democrats. Bring it on.

YESTERDAY'S DISCUSSION ON WHO WROTE 'DREAMS FROM MY FATHER'

The idea that Barack Obama had some help in writing "Dreams From My Father," and that the help came from William Ayers, is gaining some interest out there. We brought it up on the show yesterday ... and here are just some of the emails we've received.

  • Subject: Obama/Ayers ghost writer story
    Name: Kimberly
    I sent a message via Twitter to both CNN and Fox with your link asking if they'd checked out the story. I got a response from someone else on Twitter calling me a "racist" and a "hate-monger." So seeking the truth makes you a racist and a hate monger? Go figure...
     
  • Subject: Royal Was WRONG!
    Name: Gerry
    Glad to hear you admonish Royal on his view re: the possible ghostwriting of Obama's first book by none-other-than William Ayers. You were ABSOLUTELY 100% CORRECT (again)!
     
  • Subject: Obama's ghost writer
    Name: joe
    After reading the article I feel that there is adequate reason for questioning Obama on the issue.
    But, with the left wing media acting as Jack Nicolson in "A Few Good Men" , they don't think the American people can "handle the truth". Or, maybe its that the Goverment Educated Masses wouldn't know the truth if it bit them in the ... well you know.
    But either way if the American people don't take off the blinders and wake up, we'll be stuck with a shifty shady socialist shyster from south of Chiago.
     
  • Subject: Jack Cashill's article
    Name: Anita
    Royal may be shrugging off the article as not mattering much, however, it is not a big deal that he may have had a ghost writer, it is a big deal if he denies any contact with Bill Ayers. It is the fact that he can not be honest about his dealings with him. It is one more thing that you realize he can not be honest about anything. Not hiw "tax cuts" for those who don't pay taxes to start with, not his dealings with ACORN, or his dealing with Mr. Ayers. Is Royal just another one taken in because he is a black brother. I have always thought Royal was very intelligent until his remarks about the "Messiah" has been made.
     
  • Subject: Did Bill Ayers ghostwrite for Obama?
    Name: Steve
    I rarely get to listen to you show but today I got a chance to hear small part of it. I hate to tell you this but Royal was probably right about the Ayers connection. Most of the Joe Sixpacks won't care. On the other end of the spectrum, one of my sisters who probably scores off the charts in IQ will completely dismiss any evidence of this connection. She will vote for Obama even if he walked on stage with horns, a tail and a pitchfork. BUT, should McNasty bring this up? YES. I think that he needs to hammer Obama wherever possible. The race is close enough that keeping this type information about Obama on people's minds might keep them from voting for him when they go behind the curtain. It is McNasty's only chance.
     
  • Subject: Royal on Obama
    Name: Robert
    I'm very disappointed in Royal in his support of Obama. I thought Royal was an intelligent guy until I hear him support a communist and an empty suit.
    Royal, please repent and support the socialist McCain.
     
  • Subject: Ghostwriter
    Name: Rick
    I must agree with Royal. I plan to vote McCain and this question is silly. McCain has proven that when he tries to draw out a negative factor in Obama that he makes himself look like an idiot. You may be correct about the ghostwriter, but as Royal said, it can only dig a deeper hole for the Republican party in this election.
     
  • Subject: Dreams for my father!
    Name: Joe
    Thank G-d for Royal he's the only one who made sense on your show today. The conversation about Obama writings made NO sense, get back to the political conversation, were you belong.
