I just finished watching the Political debate. I wanted to change the channel and watch something else, because I can barely stand hearing Obamas voice. Too bad the debate was on every channel. Liberty had Don Corace(a published Author) speak in convo a couple weeks ago and he hit on some of the political questions. One thing he said that I thought was right on was that most of America during this time in the election process seem to pick their favorite candidate by WHAT THEY SAY. He said that instead of judging our vote on who speaks the best or who can lie the best we need to look at WHAT THEY’VE DONE. Anybody can talk smack and feed lies, but not everyone can follow through and walk the talk. I thought that was especially relevant to this election. I will admit Obama is a very good speaker (as was Hitler), but when you look at the “stats” McCain is the best choice for President. Something McCain kept saying during the debate tonight was that Obama was naive in most of his arguments. Which when you look at the stats that is exactly what Obama is. He is inexperienced and personally I believe incapable of running our country. Also, another thing I liked about tonight’s debate is how McCain took charge. Anytime Obama would try to interrupt he wasn’t able to because McCain wouldn’t let him. I think that just shows McCain’s strength and persistence compared to Obamas. I wish people looking for “change” would just shut their mouths and listen. I think Peter Wehner says it best, “[Obamas] speeches, particularly of late, have been largely free of substance; he doesn’t explain in any concrete way what change he hopes to bring about should he be elected President. If you compare Obama’s rhetoric with, say, Martin Luther King, Jr., you’ll see how glaring the difference is. King used his rhetoric — at once beautiful, uplifting, and compelling — to advance a philosophy and a cause: the belief that America needed to make good on its “promisary note” and do away with racial injustice. Like Lincoln, King grounded his arguments in an appeal to the Declaration of Independence and the moral law and had concrete implications. Obama’s rhetoric, which can also be inspiring, seems almost consciously bereft of unifying ideas or political philosophy.” Amen.
