Katie says: "Barack Obama is Not My Hero. " *gasps and looks of digust from all Penn State students*


"Those who stand for nothing fall for anything."
-- Alexander Hamilton

So many love Obama, but do they know anything about him?

We all need hope but are we looking in the right places?

Are my peers jumping on the Obama wagon because it's cool?

Don't we need to look at ourselves, our values, our own individuality before we have a stranger tell us what we need?

Do we need what Barack Obama tells us we need?

What is this "change" Obama is promising?

Is it this??

Do some research on Obama's response to infanticide taking place in his home state of Illinois.

Is this what h

I am not an ub
er-conservative; I don't hate people that have abortions. There is a big difference though, between abortions within the first trimester, and abortions happening to an almost full term baby. When a Senator shows no mercy for something that is obviously a living, breathing BABY that could live outside the womb, he shows no compassion for human life. Do you know what they do during a partial birth abortion?? Maybe he should be for the war instead of against it.

I would lik
e to see a change in the world as much as the next person...

But Barack Obama is not my hero.
