anyone who calls the giving of my taxes to my fellow countrymen when they are in need "handouts" is, in my opinion, worthy of the title 'uncaring'.

His plan ultimately is to change the United States of America to the Communist States of America.

In his speech in NC tonight he said the opposition is going to put labels on everything. He said those labels were meant to cause fear. He first said there should be no red states and no blue states. The opposition did not invent that term. News shows did to show which states were won by Democrats and which states were won by Republicans. Is his message that he wants to get rid of political parties? "No Red states and no blue states" If so that would fit right in with his Marxist upbringing. Under Communism there is only one party....The Communist party!

Obama also said there would be "no rich and no poor" labels. That too is Communism. For in a Communist state everyone is equal since all toil for the common good--the government.

Obama makes a great speech but so did Adolph Hitler. The comparison to Hitler is a valid one even though idealogically they differ. Hitler energized the youth in Germany to start the Nazi revolution. Obama has energized the youth in this country to do his bidding.....They are every bit as fanatical as the Hitler youth!
Although I don't like your tone for the most part I agree with you here. The let's all just be one happy family is very suspicious. I feel that the biggest problem we have in the US is the political system and lack of competition in the political arena. Unity is a wonderful concept but if we are all unified under one party it does suspiciously sound like it won't be a democracy/republic form of government or at least not in the long run.

Utter nonsense. Republicans have no desire to crush the middle class or poor.
