Obama, so out of touch: thinks that one of our main hardships is having to put off buying new cars. What’s up?

I tell you what, I could care less about a new car which would be a luxury. What I’m concerned about is the price of milk cheese and diapers, not to mention my gas is about to eat my whole paycheck.
New car, my ****!!

Why are you complaining? It’s obvious voting for Obama would be in your best interest.

I am concerned that I will have to close my business company and lay off all 26 employees.

He used that as one of several examples, perhaps you weren’t listening.

That just goes to show how out of touch he really is with his voters. It’s his empty rhetoric that attracts most of his supporters.

And this coming from a man that made over four million bucks this year………….

Obama out of touch? McCain has 13 cars and 7 houses so who is out of touch with the American people?

out of touch is not knowing how many homes you own .

So then you’d rather have McCain who would have you fund a continued tax cut to the richest 1%?

food suppliers/wholesalers rely on credit, all big businesses do.

Liberalism–the entitlement disease.

Nothing wrong with that, his running mate, Joe Biden, implies that with their tax cut plan we can all go out and buy new toasters!
MMM…a warm, tasty bagel…mmm…cream cheese… YUMMY !

That was only one example that he used. McCain doesn’t have to worry, what with all his family money and his wife’s money. Why do you think that McCain knows better what it’s like to worry about how normal people live and make do? He was born with a silver spoon in his mouth and a spot at the navel academy just waiting for him.

I agree with you about your hardships…those are the same for me.
I’m a stay-at-home mom. Because of the increase in cost of about everything it takes to keep our household running, I have been considering returning to work. However, that would require the purchase of a car new or otherwise because we only have one car and public transportation is not an option where I live. I could not buy a car without a loan and I could not get a loan because the banks are refusing to loan money.
Maybe that is what he was referring to, all though I don’t remember him saying that.

It was symbolism. It implied that people shouldn’t be spending beyond their means, running up credit bills on things that they can’t afford. And, besides a new home, one of the status symbols of our time is a new car.

People that sell those new cars, along with those people that build those new cars and those that transport those new cars care. Have you no compassion for your fellow man and his family? How about those people employed in businesses that provide, make, and ship those parts that are needed for those new cars? They do have a right to live as well as you. Why do you not think about them? What about those that have lost their jobs because of people with the ME, ME, attitude, that are with out health insurance and are about to lose their homes because the loss of their jobs in the automobile industry? You must be a republican.

Ah, but according to McCain and his throwback to Reaganomics (Voodoo Economics as George Bush, Sr. called it)…
If you don’t buy a new car, then the American auto companies will fail. That’ll put more Americans out of work and will close the American factories. In turn, this will plunge us even further into economic peril.
Which is why McCain would like to give tax breaks to the auto companies, but NOT to people like you. Because he cares more about cars than about diapers.
