And the Winner Is…

The debate over who won the last presidential debate of this campaign will obviously go on for much longer than the actual event. The reality is that there was no clear winner, but there is likely to be an overwhelming loser.

After listening to both candidates talk about “climate change,” it is clear that America lost either way.

The loss is obviously much greater if Obama comes out on top in this election, with the high likelihood that we will have 2 of 3 of our federal government branches in the hands of the Dems. I am preparing to ride out 4 very painful years.

Speaking of the debate; it seems that Obamination showed his complete ignorance of a wide variety of subjects. From the obvious of not knowing where he was when his Senatorial campaign was kicked off, to only slightly more obscure policy areas.

The ignorance of how group insurance policies work was astounding. His suggestion that merely adding more bodies to an insurance plan will lower costs is frighteningly foolish. The more additional people that fall toward the higher risk end of actuarial tables, the higher the cost for the existing insured group. I guess the rest of us are supposed to suck up the cost of paying to add the high risk individuals he is most concerned with. More of his master wealth redistribution plan. Socialist!

He also apparently missed Economics 101 while organizing his community. Raising taxes on business causes them to cut pay, cut benefits, send jobs overseas, and raise prices. What a boon to the middle class on Main Street. Neophyte!

Well, here’s to all of us, the losers in this election, Americans. May the next four years pass quickly, and may we still be able to pull our country back from the brink when its over.
