From Obama's website.
Pay Inequity Continues: For every $1.00 earned by a man, the average woman receives only 77 cents, while African American women only get 67 cents and Latinas receive only 57 cents.
Translation; YOU DON'T NEED SKILLS OR WORK ETHIC. JUST BECAUSE YOU'RE A MINORITY YOU SHOULD BE PAID EQUALLY.
Hate Crimes on the Rise: The number of hate crimes increased nearly 8 percent to 7,700 incidents in 2006.
Translation; WHITE PEOPLE ARE BIGOTS AND SHOULD BE PUNISHED.
Efforts Continue to Suppress the Vote: A recent study discovered numerous organized efforts to intimidate, mislead and suppress minority voters.
Translation; SEE ABOVE TRANSLATION.
Disparities Continue to Plague Criminal Justice System: African Americans and Hispanics are more than twice as likely as whites to be searched, arrested, or subdued with force when stopped by police. Disparities in drug sentencing laws, like the differential treatment of crack as opposed to powder cocaine, are unfair.
Translation; WHITE PEOPLE ARE BIGOTS. MAYBE MY WIFE WAS RIGHT! I'M NOT SO PROUD OF MY COUNTRY EITHER.
The Bush tax cuts give those who earn over $1 million dollars a tax cut nearly 160 times greater than that received by middle-income Americans.
Translation; FOR YOU PEOPLE WHO DON'T PAY TAXES I'M HERE TO TAX OVER ACHIEVERS. THAT SHOULD MAKE YOU FEEL BETTER.
Provide a Tax Cut for Working Families: Obama will restore fairness to the tax code and provide 150 million workers the tax relief they need. Obama will create a new "Making Work Pay" tax credit of up to $500 per person, or $1,000 per working family. The "Making Work Pay" tax credit will completely eliminate income taxes for 10 million Americans.
Translation; PEOPLE WHO DON'T PAY TAXES WILL GET TAXES FROM THE WEALTHY. REDISTRIBUTION.
Zero to Five Plan: Obama's comprehensive "Zero to Five" plan will provide critical support to young children and their parents. Unlike other early childhood education plans, Obama's plan places key emphasis at early care and education for infants,
Translation; YOU PEOPLE DON'T KNOW HOW TO RAISE YOUR OWN KIDS. GOVERNMENT WILL DO IT BETTER. AND PAY FOR IT.
Make Math and Science Education a National Priority: Obama will recruit math and science degree graduates to the teaching profession and will support efforts to help these teachers learn from professionals in the field
Translation; EVEN THOUGH YOU SUPPORT ME I THINK TEACHERS ARE STUPID.
Address the Dropout Crisis: Obama will address the dropout crisis by passing his legislation to provide funding to school districts to invest in intervention strategies in middle school
Translation; I'LL PAY YOU PEOPLE TO STAY IN SCHOOL EVEN IF YOU DON'T WANT TO BE THERE.
Create the American Opportunity Tax Credit: Obama will make college affordable for all Americans by creating a new American Opportunity Tax Credit.
Translation; I'LL TAX THE RICH AND PAY YOU TO GO TO SCHOOL...NEVERMIND, I ALREADY SAID THAT.
Expand Paid Sick Days: Half of all private sector workers have no paid sick days and the problem is worse for employees in low-paying jobs, where less than a quarter receive any paid sick days. Barrack Obama will require that employers provide seven paid sick days per year.
Translation; BEND OVER EMPLOYERS OF AMERICA. I'M FORCING YOU TO PAY FOR BUBBA'S HANGOVERS.
Expand the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA): The FMLA covers only certain employees of employers with 50 or more employees. Barack Obama will expand the FMLA to cover businesses with 25 or more employees. Barack Obama will expand the FMLA to cover more purposes as well, including allowing workers to take leave for elder care needs; allowing parents up to 24 hours of leave each year to participate in their children's academic activities at school; allowing leave to be taken for purposes of caring for individuals who reside in their home for 6 months or more; and expanding FMLA to cover leave for employees to address domestic violence and sexual assault.
Translation; BEND OVER AGAIN. I MISSED THE FIRST TIME.
Expand the Child and Dependent Care Tax Credit: The Child and Dependent Care Tax Credit provides too little relief to families that struggle to afford child care expenses. Barack Obama will reform the Child and Dependent Care Tax Credit by making it refundable and allowing low-income families to receive up to a 50 percent credit for their child care expenses.
Translation; POOR PEOPLE SHOULD HAVE THE SAME BENEFITS AS EVERYONE ELSE EVEN THOUGH THEY DON'T EARN IT.
Bring Our Troops Home: Obama will immediately begin to remove our troops from Iraq. He will remove one to two combat brigades each month, and have all of our combat brigades out of Iraq within 16 months.
Translation; I DON'T CARE WHAT HAPPENS I'M A APPEASER. LET THEM DEAL WITH THE FALL OUT. THEY'LL LEAVE US ALONE ALL WE HAVE TO DO IS GET OUT.
Regional Diplomacy: Obama will launch the most aggressive diplomatic effort in recent American history to reach a new compact on the stability of Iraq and the Middle East. This effort will include all of Iraq's neighbors â€" including Iran and Syria.
Translation; I'LL BEG FOR FORGIVENESS WITH A SMILE AND A MAGIC WAND, ALL WILL BE OK. THERE'S HOPE.
Improve Our Immigration System
Obama believes we must fix the dysfunctional immigration bureaucracy and increase the number of legal immigrants to keep families together and meet the demand for jobs that employers cannot fill.
Translation; I'LL JUST MAKE ALL ILLEGALS...LEGAL. YEAH THAT'LL FIX THE PROBLEM.
Work with Mexico
Obama believes we need to do more to promote economic development in Mexico to decrease illegal immigration.
Translation; WE'LL SEND BILLION TO MEXICO BUILD THEIR INFRASTRUCTURE WITH THE MONEY SAVE BY LEAVING IRAQ.
