The Obama Temptation

The Corner on National Review Online:

"Obama's entire campaign is built on class warfare and human envy. The 'change' he peddles is not new. We've seen it before. It is change that diminishes individual liberty for the soft authoritarianism of socialism. It is a populist appeal that disguises government mandated wealth redistribution as tax cuts for the middle class, falsely blames capitalism for the social policies and government corruption (Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac) that led to the current turmoil in our financial markets, fuels contempt for commerce and trade by stigmatizing those who run successful small and large businesses, and exploits human imperfection as a justification for a massive expansion of centralized government."
Silly me was hoping he would win the primary instead of Hillary. But I thought America was smart enough to see through this guy. He's pure style of substance. He promises UNITY but he's too far left for me. He Promises CHANGE but it's really nothing new. I hope we wake up before he's elected or at least soon thereafter.
