Like Frisco? Then vote Democratic

With all of the excitement about Obama, it seems the country is ready for a change. What type of change will the very liberal Obama and a liberal Congress bring to America? To answer this question you could simply look at an area of the United States where liberals like Obama and Nancy Pelosi (a San Francisco liberal) have complete control of the government.
A perfect example is San Francisco. This city doesn’t allow citizens to possess usable firearms. The excuse that this prevents “gun violence” is hypocritical in light of the fact that they actively harbor criminals from across the border. Obama wants to restore convicted felons’ right to vote. Why?
San Francisco has the second highest tax rate of any city in the USA. How would your standard of living be affected if you were forced to live under a similar tax burden? Obama is on record stating he will increase taxes if elected.
San Francisco’s City Council abhors the U.S. military. They say that the military should be disbanded. While Obama may not be this extreme, he has actively demonstrated his disdain for the military.
Obama and his liberal counterparts would undoubtedly like to “change” America by liberalizing it as the liberals in San Francisco have done. Obama was rated the most liberal senator in the United States Senate in 2007, so I don’t think it’s an exaggeration to say “If you want an America, that looks like San Francisco, then vote for Obama in 2008.”
