Imagine if you have gone through this election only listening to your friends. Imagine getting ready to visit the ballot box and the only thing about the candidates that you know is what you have heard from your friends. Imagine if your friends are completely ignorant, uninformed and uneducated. Let’s have a look at these candidate misinformed supporters and break down the facts according to them.
Extremist McCain supporters:
What they’d like us to know:
- Obama is a Muslim.
- Obama’s not a Christian and this is a Christian nation.
- Obama is a second stringer because he’s not white.
- Obama is a wolf in sheep’s clothing.
- Palin is filled with the Holy Spirit.
- Obama is related to a known terrorist.
- He must support terrorists. “If it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck, it must be a duck.”
- Obama and his wife could be anti “white”.
- They don’t like the fact that Obama thinks “us white people are trash.”
- Obama is a baby killer.
- Difference in opinion is worthy of offensive insults and violent threats.
Extremist Obama supporters:
What they’d like us to know:
- If you’re white and you don’t vote Obama, you’re racist.
- If you believe borders should be closed, you’re racist and not human.
- If you can shout louder than the person you are debating, you are a top notch debater.
- According to the campaign sign that you made, Barack’s name is spelled “Barak”.
- There is no difference between gas and health care. You should pay higher prices for socialized health care than gas. By paying taxes for health care, gas prices will magically plummet.
- Illegal immigrants using health care for free and bankrupting hospitals isn’t a problem. Everybody deserves the same health care rights, regardless of citizen status. If you feel otherwise, you don’t believe in God.
- If you believe health care should only be for citizens, than you think that slavery should still be practiced.
- Immigrants and illegal aliens are all the same. Everybody in the US is an alien. Native Americans also no longer exist.
- If you are passionate about locking US borders and that is your most passionate cause, you should vote for the candidate opposite or your beliefs just because you share the same skin color.
My conclusion after listening to both extreme sides of the coin is that nobody seems to know a damn thing about McCain’s policies and the difference in the issues between the two candidates. Sadly, this election seems to come down to nothing more than race, religion and complete misinformation. Hopefully there are more educated individuals voting, than the ignorant. I’ve also come to the conclusion that the country’s most important issue isn’t raising taxes, high gas prices or abortion… The importance of education needs to come to the forefront in the near future! Nothing good can come of a country full of ignorant individuals with bad tempers, but at least these two very different groups all have 1 thing in common:Tiny IQ’s.
