If hear the word change one more time...

I may just lose my mind.  How much us this change going to cost me?  How much is this change going to cost the country?  In addition to the financial cost, what will the moral and social cost be?  We have problems in this great nation.  But just uttering the word change incessantly will not solve our problems.  In fact, change with out a good plan can be a disaster.  What is the plan?  Give me something!    

There was a change in Pearl Harbor in 1941.  That wasn't good for us was it?  Did the citizens of Hiroshima like the change to their quaint town during WWII?  How about the change in the New York City skyline in 2001?  I know these are extreme examples but they highlight a fundamental truth, change for change sake is not necessarily a good thing.

Here is a good change, how about telling the truth!  The social programs being discussed under an Obama presidency will be so expensive he will have to raise taxes.  Raising taxes slows the economy.  A slower economy means less jobs.  Less jobs means more people needing public assistance.  More people on public assistance leads to a form of European socialism.  Is this what we want?

"Change" is the largest word that most democrats will understand. Most are simpletons and can not follow multiple messages, let alone any word/phrase/message that would actually describe just what, if any, policies Obama plans. Does anyone else notice that he only uses words like "change" but never actually describes what it is he plans to change?
