“Senator Obama said that he wants to spread the wealth and he wants government to take your money and decide how to best to redistribute it according to his priorities. Joe suggested that sounded a little bit like socialism. Whatever you call it, I call it bad medicine for an ailing economy and it's what Barack Obama will do to those who want to create jobs.”

“When I heard about the project, the name sounded kind of familiar. I felt like I'd seen it in the book review section or on a list somewhere, but I didn't really know what the story was.
