Imagine that! There was a point to that New Yorker cover, after all!!!

Found this bunch of hooey on a comments page (reposted as found):

IF Obama is elected he would crush this nation by doing the following:
Obama's World Poverty Bill (google it) would be passed and take ALL of the US Gross Domestic Profit earnings to give to the UN for distribution to African nations (seriously, GOOGLE IT) (All 7%. Which is the profit margin).
There goes the US cash gifts to support Israel!
Guns would be also gathered up according to Obama's Global Poverty Bill plan (Did you Google it yet?) and the US would go into massive civil war.
Hey.. the lefties are unarmed anyway, so that might not be so bad!
Obama would tax the investor class and no new small businesses would come into being (esp with the bank failures going on at the moment and no new loans being issued).
America would stagnate and begin to fall apart.
Obama's tax on the investor class also takes away incentives for lower classes to strive to become better people!
Did you hope to begin your own business someday?
Obama says NO!
Obama must keep us in our place, after-all.
Obama would immediately tax the large corporations which are already just barely balanced between the democrat instituted union demands and simply closing up and moving overseas or to Mexico.
The USA corporate infrastructure would be detroyed within a year.
Obama would force the reamining small businesses to pay totally unaffordable health care for employees and they too, would close up and go out of business even before finding health care, IF it were available. This will really hurt the women business owners who employ mostly younger women in retail, who have higher health care coverage.
Jane... Looks like you need to become a waitress again.
Obama will over tax and over extend this country so quickly and at the worst time that we will DIE as a nation.
If you want the USA to die, then you surely want Obama to become president and vice versa.
Israel will fall apart and diappear if the USA falls.
The US pays Israel just enough to stay afloat with all of it's military needs against the very countries that McCain defends Israel from, YET, Obama supports and wants to discuss politics with these same terrorist groups over crumpettes and tea.
Note to Obama:
Terrorists do not eat crumpettes, they send their brainwashed neighbors into tea N crumpette shops with bombs strapped to their bodies. They do not negotiate!
This is not some game where we can push reset and this certainly is not a basketball game or charisma pagaent.
This is the cold hard reality of Obama that people play deaf and dumb to.
This is real life.
Are you awake and ready to learn about the survival of our nations?
McCain 3R Plan is a start, but Obama's view is the end.

Anyone see the problems in the posting above?

"Obama's World Poverty Bill (google it) would be passed and take ALL of the US Gross Domestic Profit earnings to give to the UN for distribution to African nations (seriously, GOOGLE IT) (All 7%. Which is the profit margin).

Eh...why does Israel require U.S. CASH GIFTS?!? You mean, they haven't gotten ENOUGH from us?

"Obama's tax on the investor class also takes away incentives for lower classes to strive to become better people!"

Oooh...better people! You mean, all of the lower classes that don't engage in stock transactions are HORRIBLE CREATURES.

I guess the correlation here is: give money to Israel; ignore any crises in Africa, and trade stocks, and you're a GOOD PERSON...no...a BETTER PERSON.

Why are these guys smoking the shiny weed? Buds don't sparkle naturally like that...

Why can't Israel play nice with its neighbors?

Your posting is just a bunch of fear-mongering...if Israel would cease encroaching upon the territories of others, and cease their false-flag attacks against other nations, they wouldn't have to be "defended" by ANYONE.

And let's get back to one point you brought up: trading.

Why should WAGES be taxed; yet GAINS are free of any oversight?

Haphazard and irresponsible trading is exactly why the U.S. is in dire straits.
