Obama VS Green values

Obama cares more about big corporations than you and your Green values.
(Fornt: greenchange.org)

In 2005, Senator Obama voted in favor of tort reform to limit the ability of people to sue companies in court.
In 2005, Senator Obama voted against a 30% cap on credit card interest rates.
Senator Obama does not support same-sex marriage.
Senator Obama does not support single-payer universal health care.
Senator Obama supports keeping U.S. troops in Iraq for years.
Senator Obama threatened to invade Pakistan to track down terrorists.

U.S. military spending in 2008 totaled over $710 billion1 - more than double the spending of the next five militaries in the world combined.2 More than half of it paid for policies that Americans don't support, programs the military doesn't need, and occupations that aren’t making the world safer.3

More military spending will not bring more security. Most military spending is unnecessary, or even counterproductive, for America's defense. Real security cannot be measured merely by the size and force of our military. True security comes from living peacefully, within the limits of the earth’s capacity. It requires that all people have their basic needs met, including food, shelter and health care.

Tell Obama to cut military waste:

Obama supports the death penalty; the Green Party is opposed to the death penalty.
