Re: Why Voting for Obama is a Mistake
Ah...Obama...flying around the world, giving speeches talking about how he is above and beyond America, how he is the global politician. I can't believe the world is eating this stuff up. At least McCain is sticking around, trying to gain the appeal of the people. I don't think McCain is perfect....but consider this.
Obama has inferred that he wants to launch an insurgency into Afghanistan. Obama's "withdrawal" from Iraq included leaving 50,000-75,000 troops stations in Iraq indefinitely. And, he said that he is willing to use force if Iran acts as a threat. Basically, his foreign policy looks a lot like Bush's...only he wants to send troops into Afghanistan. This means he will push for the UN to aid in his efforts, and as a result Europe will be expected to support his "cause."
Seriously, call me a greedy selfish bastard, America needs to step out of foreign affairs for a little bit. We need to get on top of this 1 trillion dollar debt that was accumulated in the past few years.
McCain is going to push to stabilize the situation in Iraq. And, hopefully after that, he will get this country back on track. I'm not sure what Obama is going to do..."withdrawal" from Iraq, and then go get Afghanistan?
I don't know who I want to vote for, right now I'm still reading up on both candidates. I just find it mildly discerning to know that Obama is campaigning in Europe trying to come off as some global savior.
I wish I knew more about politics, maybe I'll take a class.
