help me dispute this...
Got a fellow facebooker posting videos like this...

"Oh, my. Please listen to this. With him and a Democratic congress, get ready for the largest invasion of government into your life that you could ever imagine. Scary. It's not too late. Believe me, I am not saying that John McCain is the greatest candidate either, but he definitely is the lesser of two evils at this point."

4. someone posted a link to the undoctored version of the audio
I agree that someone who puts the Drudge version on facebook is not going to vote for McCain but I also think it does not hurt to hit back with the truth.

"With him and a Democratic congress, get ready for the largest invasion of government into your life that you could ever imagine."- I love that this is the new song being sung by Repubs. but they did not mind when they had the White House and Congress.

5. This facebooker hasn't listened to the original audio.
Drudge is linking to a slice and diced version which completely distorts what Obama actually said. I recommend reading this thread for the full details: http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=132&topic_id=7619899&mesg_id=7619899

7. Ask them if they know what "Gilded Age" means!
Then, ask them why some "redistribution" wouldn't be needed to undo it (whenever we find it). The "big government" argument is a red herring. Both sides are specializing in big government. The only question is by what process we can best move beyond it.

9. But it's okay that the money from the middle class has been redistrubuted to the
wealthy.
