Count Down to "Redistribute The Wealth"

AT LEAST KNOW WHO YOU'RE VOTING FOR -- A CHALLENGE

The election is now eight days way. If you've made up your mind for Obama; or if you're trying to noodle through some of the things he's been saying on the campaign trail, this should help. I've taken four statements that The Chosen One repeats at almost every campaign rally. Now these statements are pretty powerful ... if unchallenged ... and we know that the MoveOn Media isn't exactly what we would call "eager" to challenge God's Candidate on any of these issues.
So, here we go again .. this simple talk show host (right wing, hate-filled shock jock, I believe they call us) is going to use some basic logic and the ability to actually read newspapers to catch you up to speed on just what the Big BO is saying here. Now if you're educated in our wonderful government schools you may find this challenging. Stick with it. In spite of what the government has done to you, you can generate some new brain cells that will help you deal with this stuff. It would also help if you got your campaign news from somewhere other than Saturday Night Live.

Here we go, front and center with Barack Obama!

"I'm going to cut taxes for 95% of Americans."

This Obama promise has already been pretty much debunked in the media. The problem is that it hasn't been debunked on the Black Entertainment Television network or on Inside Edition or Entertainment Tonight. Until these television outlets bring forth the facts most of Obama's supporters won't know the truth.

And what is the truth? The truth is that almost one-half of working Americans eligible to vote don't pay federal income taxes in the first place. This brings forth the interesting question of how do you cut taxes for people who don't pay taxes. What Obama has done here is change the definition of "tax cut."

It used to be that when the government walked up to someone who had just received their paycheck and said 'Gimme some of that," and the government then gave that money to someone else who had not earned it; that was called welfare. Now apparently you can't get welfare if you're working ... so we'll just call it income seizure and redistribution. Under Obama a couple earning, for example, $70,000 and owing no federal income taxes at all will get several checks from Obama's federal taxpayer-funded treasury. These checks will be called "tax cuts."

So .. for those who don't pay taxes, here are some of the "tax cut" checks you'll be getting from The Chosen One. I'm taking some literary license here and replacing the words "tax credit" with the word "payment." That literary flourish brings us much closer to the truth. Here are your goodies; come and get 'em:

A $500 "make work pay" payment.
A $4,000 payment for college tuition.
A payment equal to 10% of your mortgage interest
A payment equal to 50% of the amount of money you put into a savings account up to $1000.
A payment equal to 50% of the amount of money you pay for child care up to $6000.
A payment of up to $7,000 if you purchase a "clean car." By that Obama means an environmentally correct car.

Plus ... an expansion of the earned income tax credit .. increased payments on top of your earnings if the government doesn't feel you are earning enough.

There you go ... Obama's "tax cuts." Sounds pretty good, doesn't it. Well, I guess it is, if you're not too successful it IS pretty good. Remember, the harder you work the lower these payments get. Barack Obama's tax plans are all about punishing success and rewarding failure. He understands that if it weren't for failures, Democrats would be scrounging in the alleys for votes.
It's rather ironic that the Obama campaign will go to the mat with critics over the definition of "socialist," but feel absolutely free to change the definition of "tax cut" to anything that suits them.

"95% of small businesses won't pay any more taxes."

Once people started hearing that the very people that Obama wanted to raise taxes on are the people we depend on for jobs, The BO campaign had to come up with a line to neuter the "small business" argument. Barack Obama knows he's in trouble if the voters find out that 70% of all extant jobs are in the small business sector and that 80% of all new jobs are coming from small businesses. So, Obama comes up with this line about 95% of small businesses not paying any more taxes under his plan.

Here's the trick. Let me illustrate reality with a simple comparison. Let's say that we have 1000 small businesses. About 950 of them, that would be 95%, employ one or two people each for a total employment figure of 1,200. Now let's assume that the other 50 businesses employ anywhere from 20 people to hundreds of people for a total of about 250,000 workers. If someone comes along and says 95% of small businesses won't be affected by his tax increases, how do you feel? You know that the tax increase is going to slam those businesses that employ 250,000 workers, while leaving the 95% of businesses that employ just 1,200 people alone. Quite a deal, huh. Aren't you impressed?

The point here is that it's not the percentage of small businesses your tax increases hit, it's the percentage of small business employees. Unfortunately that nuance is lost on the majority of voters educated by the government, and the MoveOn Media sure isn't going to take the time to explain it to you. Obama's tax increases are going to hit the small business owners who employ the most people. They are the ones that make the most money. These business owners are going to respond to the tax increases one of two ways. They'll increase prices -- which hit all of us -- or they'll cut expenses. Their number one expense? Personnel. Vote for Obama, say TTFN to your job. Makes perfect sense to me, but then I was government educated too.

"John McCain voted with George Bush 90% of the time."

First of all, George Bush doesn't cast votes in the U.S. Senate, though McCain and Obama do. The best way to judge how they vote is to see how often they vote with their respective parties. You might want to get those nuisance resolutions proclaiming the need for a colonoscopy every once in a while out of the way. That would leave some key votes for you to consider. The Congressional Research Service did the work. They looked at votes for Obama and McCain on KEY issues. The results? Barack Obama voted with Democrats 97% of the time. John McCain voted with the Republicans 79% of the time. Now .. just sit on your hands and wait for the MoveOn Media to report that one. Sit on your hands, but for God's sake don't hold your breath.

"John McCain wants to tax your health insurance benefits."

He's right, but here's the rest of the story. Let's say that you and your brother work for different companies. Your company provides you with health insurance. Your brother has to buy his own. Your boss gets a tax deduction for the cost of your health insurance. Your brother does not get a tax deduction for the cost of his health insurance. In effect, he is paying much more than you are for the same policy. Not fair. There's a reason for this. For decades government has wanted to coerce you into getting insurance through your employer. This gets you acclimated to the idea of someone else -- someone besides yourself -- is responsible for your health care. The end result is that the government, in effect, subsidizes the cost of your health insurance, but not your brother's. Now McCain has this idea of a $5,000 tax credit for every family to pay for their own health insurance policy. To make this work everyone has to start from the same starting line. Remember, you're subsidized, your brother is not. So McCain takes away the tax deduction your employer gets for your health insurance. There ... now we're all of equal standing when the $5,000 tax credits start coming out.

Now that wasn't too hard, was it?
Now .. just in case you've read something here, heard something on my show or gathered some information from some other source that might cause you to switch your vote from Obama to McCain ... just remember. You're a racist. There is only one reason NOT to vote for Barack Obama, and that's if you're a robe-wearing, cross-burning Klansman. Just so you know. You're going to have that on your conscience.

REDISTRIBUTE THE WEALTH

Now that brings again to Obama. You've heard, haven't you, that a 2001 Chicago Public Radio interview of then Illinois State Senator Barack Obama has surfaced. In that interview Obama says that it was a tragedy that during the civil rights era the Supreme Court didn't pursue "redistribution of the wealth." To hear the relevant portion of the interview if you care to hear it for yourself, visit Neil Boortz site for the link.

We've really made some progress here. Well, I guess that the left has really made some progress. We now have a presidential candidate who talks openly of increasing taxes not because the government needs the money, but because the people who do have the money don't actually deserve it and there are other people out there who need it more. Sorry folks, but facts is facts. Redistribution of the wealth is a basic tenant of Communism. To whatever degree you support a forced redistribution of wealth you are a Communist. Simple as that.

The warning signs have always been there. In his book Dreams from my Father Obama writes of a relationship he had in is late teens with someone named "Frank." For some reason Obama doesn't include his last name. Obama refers to Frank as "a poet" who was full of "hard-earned knowledge." He also says that Frank had "some modest notoriety once." Yeah, I'll say. Frank was Frank Marshall Davis was a member of the CPUSA. For those of you who don't like acronyms, that's Communist Party of the United States of America. Frank Marshall Davis ... some mentor, don't you think?

For all of you suburban housewives and country clubbers who think that you are just so, like, enlightened for voting for Obama, it's time for your wake up call ... though I don't know if it will help:

Barack Obama's core belief is that we belong not to ourselves, but to government. We are tools that the government is free to use to bring about what Obama calls "economic justice." The fruits of our labor belong to government ... and government can do with them what it pleases.
Now if this is your philosophy, then vote for this guy. Then every time you draw a paycheck why don't you drop him a line and ask him how much of it you can keep to care for your family and plan for your own future and how much he would like to have to redistribute to someone who sat on their butt while you were busting yours. After all, you voted for him.
AND HOLD ON TO YOUR PENSIONS WHILE YOU'RE AT IT
Some interesting happenings last week. Argentina proposes seizing all private pensions. The purpose? That would be to redistribute all of that money to people who actually need it more. Now I've exhausted my Google capabilities trying to identify this person, I believe it was Barney Frank, but some leading Democrat last week said that the pensions belonging to some evil CEOs would be the first to go. That's just the beginning folks. Mark my words, because I want the "I told you so" on this one, after Obama is sworn in you are going to see an attack on privately held pensions and 401K plans. There's about four or five trillion dollars out there, and the Democrats want their hands on it to further their redistribution schemes.

FINALLY, A REPORTER WITH SOME ONIONS (WELL, FIGURATIVELY ANYWAY)
A TV reporter in Central Florida actually asked Joe Biden questions that we have waited so long for the MSM to ask ... and the Obama-Biden campaign isn't pleased. Last Thursday, Barbara West conducted a satellite interview with Joe Biden. You can watch the (Boortz Site has link) interview here.
West asked Biden about Obama's "spread the wealth" comment. She quoted Karl Marx and asked Biden whether Obama's comments were Marxist. Biden's response: "Are you joking?" West also asked Biden about his comments that Obama would be tested by an international crisis early in his presidency. His response to that: "I don't know who is writing your questions."

It doesn't matter who is writing the questions, Joe. What matters is that these are the questions that many Americans have been wanted answers to ... but nobody has dared to ask.
In fact, Biden was so upset by the interview, that the Obama campaign canceled an interview with Jill Biden, Joe's wife, because it was unhappy with West's questions.
Here's what the Obama campaign had to say about the interview. Notice how the Obama campaign has reacted to radio and TV stations that run unflattering ads or ask tough questions – ban them, ask the Justice Department to get involved, get a hold of their advertisers. This is just the beginning, folks.

"There's nothing wrong with tough questions, but reporters have the very important job of sharing the truth with the public -- not misleading the American people with false information. Senator Biden handled the interview well; however, the anchor was completely unprofessional. Senator Biden's wife is not running for elected office, and there are many other stations in the Orlando television market that would gladly conduct a respectful and factual interview with her."

"This cancellation is non-negotiable, and further opportunities for your station to interview with this campaign are unlikely, at best for the duration of the remaining days until the election."
So by asking these questions, West is deemed "unprofessional." How about those reporters who reported on Sarah Palin's children, or her days as a beauty queen? Those reports are not unprofessional, but when you ask a Vice Presidential candidate about tax policy ... THAT is unprofessional.

IT WAS A HOAX
I saved this email from Brian Duffy, just so I can say "I told you so." On Friday, I talked about the report that a girl in Pittsburgh had been attacked and a "B" had been carved into her face. I mentioned that something didn't smell right with this story, and I was skeptical, as was Royal. Then I got this email:

Subject: Sell Out BoortzName: Brian DuffyMessage:As a Conservative in Florida believe me we know that you have sold usout long ago.Today you reached a new low by calling that poor soul who was beaten androbbed in PA a liar.You are on your knees to the Kenyan Barack Hussein Obama, a muslim and a communist, by his own admission.You sold that victim in PA out because she is white.You make any patriotic American sick to our stomachs.

So how do you feel now, Brian? On Friday it was confirmed that Ashley Todd made up the entire story. She is nothing but a loose screw. The girl has a history of this kind of behavior. In fact, before she was sent to Pittsburgh as a representative for the College Republican National Committee ... she had been fired from her job working for the Ron Paul campaign in Texas. Working for the Ron Paul campaign, she would call up other campaigns at the time and ask for information about their strategies. Earlier this month, Todd sent an email to her Ron Paul pals saying that her tires had been slashed and campaign paraphernalia had been stolen from her car ... because she was a Ron Paul supporter.

DO YOU WANT TO START A NEW BUSINESS?

The Talkmaster is fixin' to give you entrepreneurs out there some pretty gosh-darned good advice here, but I'm strongly urging you to wait until after we know the results of this election before you act. Make plans, but don't act. If McCain wins, all bets are off.

OK, here you go. If Barack Obama wins the presidency there is going to be an giant increase in home schooling in this country. Remember, this entire Annenberg Challenge thing that Obama was running in Chicago was an effort to radicalize Chicago government schools. What do you think will happen when Obama's Department of Education starts its magic! So ... figure out how you can make money by enabling and supporting the efforts of millions of additional parents to educate their children at home ... out of the reach of government indoctrination.
GIVE IT UP
For those of you who are still sending us the emails about Obama's birth certificate ... give it up. Barack Obama is a US citizen. He is not a Muslim. Although he is a Marxist, I'll give you that much.

On Friday, a federal judge dismissed the lawsuit brought by Philip Berg. The judge ruled that Berg lacked standing to bring the case, saying that any harm that would come from an ineligible candidate was "too vague and its effects too attenuated to confer standing on any and all voters."
OK, SO WE ARE LOOKING INTO THIS STORY
There is another story out there circulating the blogs. A staff writer for the LA Times by the name of Peter Wallsten has reported on another Barack Obama association. This time it is Barack Obama, five years ago, celebrating with a group of Palestinians who are openly hostile towards Israel. At this celebration, Barack Obama apparently gave a toast to a former PLO operative by the name of Rashid Khalidi. Oh and also attending this "celebration": Bill Ayers and Bernadine Dohrn. While Wallsten has written about this in the LA Times, he also claims to have a video of Obama at this celebration ... but he won't release the video.
Is this just another Michelle Obama "whitey" situation? We'll see if the pressure to release this video actually works ... and if it is truly what he says it is.
But hey ... even if it is true, look for 60% of Jewish voters to go for Obama. Liberalism trumps religion.

How do the Democrats want to solve this economic crisis? With more spending projects and government work programs.

And now for Obama's Plan for a Second-Class Economy."
Here's a "reality check" from Michael Barone on what we can expect from a Democrat in the White House and a Democrat-majority Congress.

Someone accessed Ohio government computer records in order to dig up information on Joe the Plumber. So much for privacy rights.

I love it. Sarah Palin says that if we give Democrats the Congress and the White House, we are going to turn this country into a nanny state.

Industries are lining up, jockeying to get their hands on your tax dollars in the form of a government bailout. My my. Aren't we surprised?

The Iraqi government can't figure out how it is going to spend all of its money. Well how about paying us back for ridding them of Saddam?

Looks like Joe the Plumber is a FairTax supporter!

New York Magazine has already declared Obama to be the winner of this election.

Take a look at what happens when government tries to get involved in healthcare. This story brought to you by the Governor of Pennsylvania.

The Pew Research Center has a recent survey showing that Republicans are happier than Democrats ... always have and always will be.

In case you didn't know, if John McCain is elected, he is going to be a dictator. Seriously! According to The Boston Phoenix.

Be careful if you want to dress as Barack Obama for Halloween ... you run the risk of being racist!

You want Homeowners' Association story? How about a HOA that took down signs welcoming home one of their neighbors who was serving in Iraq "because they could be viewed as political and supporting the war."

Susan Green of Florida seems to think that it is the government's job to educate your child. Apparently Susan doesn't listen to the Boortz Show.

Sadly, a US Department of Peace could actually be a reality with Obama in the White House. Define peace. The communists defined it as the absence of opposition to communism.

Health warning labels on cigarette packages may actually make smokers want to smoke even more.
