I can’t wait for Barack Obama to become president. I can see it now, more taxes and regulations on people who work for a living; more welfare benefits for people who refuse to work for a living; more rights for criminals; illegal aliens and an open border policy; more gun control; and national health care run by the same government that gave you the Social Security system, which is broke, and the Medicare system, which is broke, and made health care insurance unaffordable because of greedy doctors, hospitals and drug companies. Finally, to you hard-headed and unemployed union workers, don’t forget it was your hero, Billie Clinton, who voted for NAFTA, which cost thousands of Americans good-paying jobs.

I almost forgot about that $4-a-gallon gasoline: Thanks to the Democratic green weenies who wouldn’t allow oil drilling or new refineries for the past 30 years.

Finally, as far as health care, I don’t remember reading where any hospital ever refused to accept a patient just because he or she was unable to pay.

I know we have two mediocre candidates for president, but remember John McCain is by far the best. He is a legitimate hero, not a media hero.
