Dear Senator Boxer,
I watched the rebroadcast of your appearance on CNN's State of the Union show last night. Thank you for informing me that you were going to be giving your views on this show.
I was disappointed again on your views on Afghanistan and the Health Care legislation issues. Even though you frequently dodged the questions I think you know exactly where you stand on these issues and that you know that your positions on these issues are partisan and will appeal only to the left wing of your party, and not to the majority of your constituents that you hope will vote for you next November.
I also think you will be particularly hard pressed to receive support from those of us that have become dependent on Medicare Advantage insurance. The projected cuts will make it very difficult for those on Medicare. I'll make a deal with you, though, cut the retirement and boondoggle benefits that Congress receives and I'll go along with it.
I also believe that small businesses will be forced to lay off employees, and that it is morally, and maybe constitutionally wrong to force people to buy medical insurance.
I also think you are terribly wrong on your position on "Climate Change" legislation. Cap and Trade is probably the worst thing that can be done at this time. Its impact on the economy would be devastating if the legislation under consideration is passed. We need to reduce our independence on foreign oil by exploring for and using ALL the domestic resources that we have at our disposal. Especially in the areas of oil, coal, and gas. And we need to expand the use of solar, wind, and geothermal generators of electricity as well.
Battery technology development is an area that can result in big dividends and the development of geo-thermal technology as a means of heating in the winter and cooling in the summer provides a very promising means of generating cheap heating and cooling. Please educate yourself on these technologies.
Please allow me to say a couple more things about Afghanistan. My son went to Iraq in 2007 as part of the surge and is back there this year for another tour. His job there is to train Iraqi National Police so that they will eventually be able to provide sufficient security for their country. He knows first hand the positive impact the surge has had on the war on terror in Iraq. I believe that Gen. Petraeus, Gen. McChrystal, and Adm. Mullen are the people to be looking to for guidance.
With all due respect, neither you, President Obama, Speaker Pelosi, or Vice President Biden are qualified to decide what should be done in Afghanistan, assuming that you still want to win over there.
However, if you want to lose, I'm sure that between the four of you that you could easily find a way to do just that. But, for the sake of the mission (that you voted for), our troops, and the security of Afghanistan and America please listen to our Commanders on the ground and don't use Afghanistan as a political football. America doesn't want another Vietnam.
Thanks for listening,

The Problem With Obama
Our Founding Fathers believed strongly in the free exercise of religion (Judeo/Christian) and limited Government. If Obama is elected we will have neither.
The "mainstream" media has been giving Obama a free pass on all of his big government ideas because they sincerely believe that anything is better than what we've had the last 8 years. Unfortunately, the mainstream media has made their decision based on emotions rather than sound reasoning.
Proof of the mainstream media's love affair with Obama is the fact that they are ignoring the character of Obama. They are not only giving Obama a pass on his big government ideas, but they are also giving Obama a pass regarding Obama's poor judgement in his selection of "friends". And they're giving Obama a pass on his relationships and lying about those relationships.
Jeremiah Wright: Obama's spiritual adviser for 20 years. This is not speculation, this is by Obama's own admission.
William Ayers: Obama's confidant, political ally, neighbor, a stauch supporter. Obama has lied repeatedly about his relationship with Ayers and the mainstream media has given him a free pass.
Tony Rizko: Close associate of Obama that worked a deal where Obama could buy property at a huge "discount". Rizko is now a convicted felon. The mainstream media has not held Obama accountable for this relationship either.
ACORN: Obama's campaign has paid ACORN $800,000 to help "get out the vote". Obama was a lawyer for ACORN, Obama also worked as a "trainer" for ACORN workers. Numererous arrests have been made in swing states where ACORN workers have committed thousands of voter registration fraud crimes. Again, the mainstream media has turned a blind eye.
If Obama wins it will be solely because the liberal media is pulling for Obama and because they kept the secret of who Obama really is from the American people.The good news is, if Obama is elected, the next four years will be so bad that in 2012 the Democrats will lose the House, Senate, and the White House and some sanity will return to Washington D.C.
In the meantime get used to eating a lot of beans and rice because if Obama wins the economy is going to shrink to levels not seen in over 50 years. The tax and spend policies of the Democrats are a sure way to kill whatever economy we might have at the end of 2008.
Add to all of this Obama's pro-abortion, pro-infanticide, pro-GLBT positions and you have one ugly candidate. In connection with this... The worst news is, that even though Obama would be out of there in 4 years, and we would have a Republican majority in the Congress... Much irreversible damage will have been done by any U.S. Supreme Court and Federal Judges that Obama appoints. This is my greatest concern of all.
The poor condition of the economy is reversible, poor foreign relations policies are reversible, even damaged national security is reversible, but, Judges are appointed for life and this would have a negative affect on the America that our children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and great-great-granchildren will live in.
God help America!

A Very Boring Debate Tonight
I've been following this race closely, and what we heard during the Debate tonight was the same canned responses from each Candidate that we've been hearing for days and weeks. Personally, I would have liked to have had McCain and Obama answer some "character" questions. It is going to take a man of good character to resolve the economic, national security, social, judicial, and health care issues that are facing us today.
It's been very painful to sit on the sidelines and watch the way that the "mainstream media" has handled the Presidential campaigns. Although, it must be acknowledged that both the NY Times and CNN finally released their stories about Obama's relationship with Bill Ayers. Even the NY Times and CNN admitted that Obama lied when he said that he didn't have a close relationship with Bill Ayers the bomber.
As it turns out Obama and Ayers not only have a close relationship but they have participated in far left wing projects together. One project that Obama and Ayers participated in was doling out $100M dollars in unspecified grant money for radical programs that included indoctrinating children with radical left wing ideology under the guise of "education".
If others in the mainstream media don't pick up on this, in my opinion, they are trying to fix this election by omitting very relevant facts about Obama. I believe that these stories released by CNN and NY Times are just the tip of the proverbial iceberg.
I also would have liked to hear questions about how each of the candidates stand on the issues of abortion and the homosexual agenda. America needs to know the answers to these questions if we are going to be able to make an informed decision in November.
I don't think either McCain or Obama won this debate tonight. But, one thing is for sure, America lost. Many Americans still don't know who Obama is. All that America knows is that Obama is not George Bush. What a tragedy if millions of Americans go to cast their vote in November without knowing who it is that they are voting for.
Character does matter! In my opinion, Obama is wrong for America. The kind of change that Obama represents will only take us further down the slippery slope of socialism.

Should Christians Vote for Obama?
In my opinion, most of the "christians" that say they are voting for Obama are CINO christians... "Christians In Name Only"...
Everyone knows that Obama is not only Pro-Abortion, but also Pro-Infanticide. This alone should be enough to make any true christian cringe. Obama is also a strong supporter of homosexual and lesbian marriages... This also goes against the basic, Biblical tenets of Christianity.
In my opinion, there may be true christians that vote for Obama, but I believe they are dead wrong in doing so... Not because I think so, but because they are voting against the most basic truths of Christianity.
First century Christians were "apolitical" but they were also living under a Roman Ruler that was murdering Christians and Jews. Christians had no rights to express their political views. We live in a free Country that was founded on Judeo-Christian principles and our laws strongly reflect this heritage. In my opinion, if Christians continue to be apathetic America will become even more secular-humanistic than it currently is. We are constantly fighting against the agenda of the ACLU, GLBT, NAMBLA, and other organizations that are adverse to the core values of America and want God to be removed completely from the public square.
You may be a Christian whose convictions will not allow you to participate in the political process because you believe in intercession but not participation. I can respect that, I don't agree with you, but I do respect you and your position.
