I consider myself a "modern redneck". I listen to all types of music. Watch all kinds of different T.V. shows. No matter who the actor is or what color they are. I can't remember at any point where I've thought "I don't like him or her because they're black, white, mexican, or puertorican". My job as a public servant forces me into the homes and company of every race and ethnic group known to man. From unemployed by choice families that have made a career out of Govt monitary assistance, to near poverty working class, to what I call pay check to pay check middle class, to the real middle class ($100,000 per year combined married income). I will not say who I am going to vote for but I can tell you where I see all of the Obama - Biden signs posted. At breakfast the other morning I over heard 3 people talking about how they couldnt wait for Obama to be president so they could get some of those rich peoples money. I threw up in my mouth. I make $31,000 before taxes a year, live paycheck to paycheck paying for my house, my truck and my wifes car. I have 2 daughters that are in Middle School and we are uninsured. I am not about to ask my country to pay my way or give me any of somebody elses money that they've worked hard for. I use "hard" loosely. I sat in my booth at the restaurant long enough to build one up just to go over to next to them and fart while I was throwing my trash away. It is not right for us to shave a buisness owner or company's profits to give to people that dont want to work. McCains wife has yet to go on national T.V. and call out all white people to vote for her husband. McCain has not gone into a prodominatley Black part of the country and changed his voice to one that sounds like 50 cent. Dont get me wrong I think McCain is out of touch but at least he has experienc and can lead. I'll bet you dont know how many homes he owns, because he doesnt either. $500,000 a year is middle class? Where??!!
I think we are all F#@@ED no matter what. I was going to start a buisness last year but stopped because of all the economy crap. It would've been open by june or july '08. But I will not own a buisness in a Socialist world. If my buisness is doing poorly and someone else is doing great, I should shut down or sell out right? The American way pretty or ugly right? Nope. Obama proposes take profits from the buisness that is doing good and give it to me. God Im on a rant.
When you go to vote in November, please if nothing else. Make an educated choice, don't fall in line like lemmings or piss ants.
