Is Obama playing bait and switch?

To the Editor:

Is Obama playing a game of "bait-and-switch?"

He is promising the rank and file all kinds of perks, government paying for college education, medical benefits, jobs, housing for everyone.

To accomplish this he is going to soak the rich.

This has the crowds mesmerized, shouting Obama, Obama.

Hitler mesmerized the Germans when he ran for office generations ago. They went for him in a big way, only to regret the aftermath.

Now I am not comparing Obama to Hitler. However, there is an old adage, beware of those bearing gifts.

If you wish for something, be careful, you may get it!

If it sounds too good, you may ask yourself later, "how did I fall for that?"
