    Source.

    CHARGE 15 - “I was an underprivileged youth.”

    EVIDENCE – Senator Obama attended prep schools and later on went to Harvard Law. His Grandparents were wealthy bankers and his Step-father was an Oil Executive. His mother was also a P.H.D.. SOURCE 1, SOURCE 2, SOURCE 3

    COUNTER CLAIM - He went to school on a scholarship and had to use food stamps to survive.

    REBUTTAL - From the ages of 2 – 6, Senator Obama was raised by his wealthy, grandparents. From the ages of 6 – 10, Senator Obama was raised by his mother and his step-father who was an Oil Executive in Indonesia; from the age of 10 until his early adulthood, Senator Obama was living again with his wealthy grandparents, one of which was the Vice President of the Bank of Hawaii. Senator Obama has attended prep schools like Occidental College, paid for by HIS FAMILY. He then went on to Harvard, the State Senate of Illinois, and the U.S. Senate.
    I have a HUGE SIG!!!!

    Obama's maternal grandfather was never in the banking business. His maternal grandmother did, eventually, become the Vice-President of a bank, but his grandfather was a furniture salesman - both in Kansas and Hawaii.

    Why do we even care whose parents and grandparents made the most, or least, money? Our country is involved in two ground wars and thisclose to a recession - and we sit here arguing about junk.

    We shouldn't care... but it is apparently an issue that the candidates make so much money and claim to understand lower and middle class people because you CAN'T do both obviously

    I personally don't care how much money they have made in their lifetime, how many houses they have, what brand of clothes they wear... or whatever other material things they have. and it certainly shouldn't be a deciding factor for who you will vote for (not you personally... just a general "you")




    R.I.P my dear Sweet Teddy. You will be missed forever. We love you.

    If you are upper class, then you can't understand the plight of the middle class. And if you are middle class, you can't understand the struggle of the lower class. Therefore, the only ones entitled to lead are from the lower class.
    At least you should have spent some time in the lower class to be considered.

    Idiocracy comes true!



    And now for my ad hominem attack:

    Obama and Palin are rich.

    All rich people are bad.

    Obama and Palin are bad.
    ____________________________________________

    We should all have the same amount of money.
    Then we wouldn't have to tax people with more money. I have a right to criticize how much a person donates to charity. I should have everything everyone else has because I want it.

    People in the upper class should 'help' the middle class.
    They cannot afford their cell phones, cable TV and extravagant gifts for their children such as those motorized toy cars.

    I like money.

    You are correct.

    McCain is rich. He is bad.
    He should give his spare money to the middle class.

    Sadly he cannot. It is his wife's money!

    Seriously though...the point is not who is rich and who isn't (by the way...I don't consider Palin's income to be "rich".)

    It is the posturing...The "I'm just simple down home folk" from someone who is making a very good living off the very taxes she deplores.

    I was doing nothing more than correcting your previous comment that BOTH his maternal grandparents were wealthy bankers.

    His Grandparents were wealthy bankers and his Step-father was an Oil Executive.

    Pretty much right. The 50 Obama lies is addressed by snopes.
    http://www.snopes.com/politics/obama/50lies.asp

    Snopes at least debunks about 20 of them.


    Interestingly, there is something about 'foreign policy experience' from being in Indonesia, that is determined to be 'argumentative'.
    But let's not go there again...

    It's not important to me whether he 'prayed in a Mosque' or whether he could speak Indonesian. It's that he is 'way socialist' in perspective.
