Politics, Religion, Military and whatever else I think of

These are my thoughts about the world. I am a staff sergeant in the Army, so of course I have an opinion. Hope you enjoy, or at the very least, think.

Does McCain WANT to win?

I am all for honor in politics, in fact, I think it would be great if instead of negative adds all we saw were the visions of the future by each candidate. Instead, we get attacks, lies, out of context clips, etc.
But when the candidate doesn't even want to seem like he might think the other guys is a bad choice, shouldn't he say so?
At a rally (you can find on youtube) a couple of McCain supporters say they are scared of an Obama presidency. One even states that Obama is a, horror, Arab. Now, McCain takes the high road and says, no, no, no, Senator Obama is not an Arab and is an honorable man.
Ok, fine, but is there something wrong with being scared of an Obama presidency? It is getting ridiculous that you can't even say you are scared of the other guy winning the presidency without someone bringing up racial undertones (thanks DailyKos!)
So I am SCARED of an Obama presidency. No of him, but of what he wants to do to America.
Specifically:
Obama wants more than a trillion (TRILLION) dollars worth of entitlements.
He wants to raise taxes on anyone (including small businesses) that make more than $250,000 while we are looking down the barrel of a recession.
He wants to add taxes to corporations that employ millions of Americans
He wants to take guns out of the hands of law abiding citizens
He wants to talk to the leaders of IRAN and Cuba with no preconditions
He wants to keep America from drilling in our own lands-- oh, but lets get this right, he wants oil companies to drill in the 640 million acres or so that DON'T have oil but doesn't want to open up where the oil companies know there is oil
He wants to push alternative fuel, such as the fiscally unviable ethanol
He wants to get his economic advise from the men who brought you the Freddy and Fannie FAILURES
He wants judges on the court that will MAKE law instead of INTERPRET laws
He wants to keep abortion legal, including partial birth abortions

And finally, the reason I am scared of an Obama presidency? The leaders of Cuba, Iran, North Korea, France, Germany, Hamas, the Taliban and Al Queda have all ENDORSED OBAMA!

If the endorsement of these world leaders isn't enough to hold your nose and vote for McCain, I don't know what is.
