The Obama-Rama-Givaway

Barack Obama isn't shy about making promises to the voters. At this campaign rally he promises:

• Health care for everyone. You will still have to pay but he will cut rates.
• Better pay for teachers.
• Free summer school and after school programs.
• College for everyone.
• Paid long-term leave if a relative gets sick.
• Higher minimum wage.
• More unions.
• Free child care.
• Pay equity for women.

I'd like to know how he's going to pay for all of this. What happened to that fiscal responsibility that the Democrats campaigned on in 2006?

plus

• An end to the war in Iraq
• 40+ miles per gallon on cars and
• an end to middle-east oil imports

Maybe for an encore he will wave a magic wand and pixies will come out of his rear.
