At least he didn't try to spin it.

If Obama loses the election it will be because of men like that in the clip go for McCain.

The small business owner's are what have built this country and they have a strong voice when November comes be it a presidential election, gubernatorial election, congressional election, etc...

Taking money out of their pockets to "spread" it around will not bode well for Obama.

Think again.

Which is the bigger name, Exxon Mobil or Barnette Enterprises? AIG or Miner's Exchange Bank? Wal-Mart or White's Fresh Foods?

Corporations fargin control this country--they've got the lobbyists, they've got the money, they've got the lawyers--they've got the stroke to get things done in Washington. All small business owners have is their singular vote...so who's really in control? Small business may have built it but it has next to no control nowadays--big business corps have that covered...and that's who needs to be taxed even more.

And you got it right--that was a clip and a momentary encounter. We didn't hear all of it--I'd love to see the whole deal. You could tell that it was edited to fit the purpose & talking point it was meant for.

I apologize, I don't know the history of this country. None of us can ever dream of rising to your intelligence level. Maybe we should all consult your mass knowlegde before we make a political or historical post on here...

So the mom and pop heating and cooling businesses who puts food on the plates of 10 or so families have no clout? So the guy who owns his own plumbing business and employs 15 or so people and goes to the hospital so see one of his employee's children being born doesn't carry any weight? The guy who runs the grocery store and still allows people to charge on credit because its a small town and he knows that people are good for it carries no weight either? The people who work for Exxon, minus the big wigs, could not care less how the political climate affects the company.

The small communities with businesses and employees like this in Ohio, Pennsylvania, Virginia, and Michigan will decide this election. So, you might ortta think again before lecturing me.

The way you talk to down to folks on here is a joke. I don't know what you have done to legitimatly think you are so far above everyone on the intelligence scale.
