 This presidential election pits the givers vs. the takers.

Or, to be even blunter: the parasites vs. the patriots.

Obama voters overwhelmingly fall into the former category. They beg Obama to look after their families -- in their dying declarations, no less. They truly believe that once Obama is elected, they won’t have to worry about paying those pesky bills anymore. Maybe if Obama wins, they’ll be able to afford “snacks” again. All these people want “an end to all the worry and the chaos of trying to make ends meet.”

Funny: throughout human history, that was a pretty basic description of something called “everyday life.” Our forefathers knew all too well that the only lasting peace they’d ever know was awaiting them in their graves – and they got there earlier than we do today, and suffered more, and somehow accomplished more, too. (Of course, in those days, poor people were truly poor – and thin, unlike today’s “poor”, who rival the robber barons of yesteryear  in terms of sheer girth.)

Obama promises to “help” all these people, even though he hasn’t been much help to his illegal alien aunt living in Boston public housing, or his brother who lives in a Kenyan hut. With all his personal wealth, Obama doesn’t give much to charity, either, except for tens of thousands of dollars in donations to his delusional racist “mentor”, Rev. Jeremiah Wright.

Why should Obama provide for his own family? After all, he believes that “the government’s job.” Which is code for: your job. You, who thought you already had a job.

You, the taxpayer patriot.

Because parasites can only thrive by sucking the life from their unwilling hosts. In the case of the American body politic, the part of the host is played by the patriot. As George Orwell said,

“People sleep peaceably in their beds at night only because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf.”

Those “rough men” are the patriots. The men who sacrifice their lives to save others -- who often can’t be bothered to save themselves.

America’s patriots should have rebelled long ago – against their role as hosts to blood sucking parasites.

But they do not, because their sense of duty compels them to keep helping those who don’t deserve their help, at home and abroad. Being kind hearted, patriots believe the parasites' lie that they are helpless victims, when in fact they are just the opposite: takers rather than givers, with considerable power to guilt-trip decent people into "helping" them.

(We are told to take some kind of weird consolation in the notion that many voters are lying to pollsters. I for one don't find it particularly encouraging that thousands of freeborn citizens are afraid of a stranger's disembodied voice at the other end of a phone line, due to decades of victocratic blackmail. Perhaps this election will turn on these timid folks; if it does, I'll take it. But it doesn't speak well of our future than even patriots are afraid of the weasel word "racist" to utter the truth in the privacy and safety of their very own homes.)

So: through this combination of entrenched, entitled, victocrat parasites on one hand, and selfless, duty-driven patriots on the other, America will eventually implode.

The only hope for the future of America lies in the hands of those patriots who finally say: no more.

You will have no more of my money, my time, or my blood as long as it is wasted and spilled in the dubious cause of maintaining a host for parasites.

Obama cleverly portrays himself as the Messianic victim-savior, but who, really, has suffered and sacrificed for his country? One writer who says he "has more in common with Obama" personally, writes nevertheless:

"John McCain is white, the son and grandson of admirals, married to a wealthy heiress – and yet he has experienced degrees of suffering, despair, and defeat that not one in a million of us can imagine. Barack Obama wears a black skin and carries an exotic name. In the United States, people of darker color have faced oppression and discrimination for centuries. But in Barack Obama's own life, he has known nothing but an easy and welcoming path to success since he was 18 years old. Privileged John McCain has known more absolute degradation than any man ever to contest the presidency. Obama was born in adversity, but he has smoothly risen to a place where he is most comfortable with those for whom things are most easy."

Do not betray the untold millions who died to make America the greatest nation on earth and the last, best hope for mankind. Imagine standing face to face with George Washington or Thomas Jefferson, never mind the men who died on the beaches of Normandy. Rehearse, here and now, your explanation to them of how you’ll vote this Tuesday.

A parasite votes based upon “how it makes them feel” or because of peer pressure or skin color or what they think they can get out of it or on account of some shallow, twisted sense of “symbolism.”

A patriot wants what’s best for his country. Meaning: what will strengthen the country rather than weaken it; for what is right rather than what is popular; for future greatness rather than immediate, personal gain.

An Obama victory will be a victory for the takers over the givers, for the parasites over the patriots.

Which are you? And what kind of America do you wish to leave behind?
