Yes, where are the "new people with new ideas"? All I see are Clinton retreads.
Signing bills with 9000 earmarks after saying he wouldn't, not pulling troops out of Iraq when he campaigned on that, cabinet full of lobbyists and tax cheats after saying he wouldn't use them, adding trillions of dollars of extra debt, destroying the intelligence community, etc. etc.
Its amateur time in DC right now. I'm not happy with either party, I think we need bigtime change in our government.
I liked him when he first came on scene, I quickly changed my mind. I said to myself, cool someone young fresh, articulate, intelligent, then it all fell apart.
His vision for the country isnt the same as mine.
The abortion thing, I could not stand hearing about the born alive infant act, that he voted against.
When he said he didnt want his daughter to be punished with a baby.
When he called some reporter lady sweetie.
When he told Joe from Ohio, that he didnt want to hurt his success, but he wanted everyone to share in his wealth
When he want to tell companies to park their jets, but use his and our money for a photo op, not to mention terrorize thousands of people who didnt need to relive 9/11.
When he promised to get a pound dog, and got a pedigreed dog from a Kennedy instead.
Theres more let me refresh my memory. Ill be back
All the afore mentioned, he's driving us into bankrupcy, taking the same path Argentina took, he hasn't a clue what America is all about, our way of life is disappearing.
Reverend Wright and Bill Ayres, are close personal friends, one preaches hate from the pulpit and the other is a terrorist, bombed the Pentagon and Capitol.
We are headed straight for Marxism, so much for individual freedom and free enterprise.
That should be enough reasons for today.
How can someone with no business experience declare that he can fix this economy, rebuild the car industry, rebuild the housing and banking systems while his own chief of the Treasury can not find others to fill open assistant jobs,and bring a new world order ?

How he "thinks" he can fix everything, yet the guy now in charge of the IRS can not even do Turbo Tax, LOL. And he was one great pick.
Partisan politics aside, from my POV President Obama is not that much different than what would have happened had McCain won the day. Overall, central federal policy would have been about the same thing. Not only does this suppport the notion that Obama's claim of "change" was bogus, it also does the same of republicans who claim the gov't "is now" socialist. I just read this morning where former Republican Congressman Joe Scarborough was taken to task on the very idea that somehow repubicans are different and not backers of socialist ideals themselves.
What's sad about President Obama and to be fair he's following the lead of so-called "experts" who surround him, is the notion that we can borrow our way out of crisis. That in effect, we have to do exactly what we did that caused the bubble and then bust in the first place. But now it appears he's showing some kind of buyers remorse.
sourceMay 14 (Bloomberg) -- President Barack Obama, calling current deficit spending “unsustainable,” warned of skyrocketing interest rates for consumers if the U.S. continues to finance government by borrowing from other countries.
“We can’t keep on just borrowing from China,” Obama said at a town-hall meeting in Rio Rancho, New Mexico, outside Albuquerque. “We have to pay interest on that debt, and that means we are mortgaging our children’s future with more and more debt.”
Holders of U.S. debt will eventually “get tired” of buying it, causing interest rates on everything from auto loans to home mortgages to increase, Obama said. “It will have a dampening effect on our economy.”
President Obama is correct in his observation, I applaud him for stating this in public but I don't see a huge policy shift in Washington itself. And at the same time, where are the "fiscal conservatives" from the otherside who should be speaking out and supporting President Obama's public comments? Listen for it! Hear it? Yeah, me neither.
In an odd way, President Obama is following a very similar plan to what Reagan did when he came into office. Bush like Carter handed over an economy in shambles but unlike Bush, Carter had not skyrocketed the US debt load so there are differences. Reagan once you cut through all the myth, exploded the national debt and ran huge deficits and now it seems our new "Great Communicator" is following that same general path.
Life's funny, democrats could easily stick it in republicans face that Obama is doing exactly what Reagan did but in so doing it's a blanket admission that the ole' Gipper's approach from their POV was the right one. On the flipside, if President Obama is following a Reaganese plan and Obama is socialist, then what doesn that make Reagan.
I love it!
It also points out that Presidents, either democrat or republican are really socialist but in varying degrees. It's like prostitutes, some go all the way and some don't swallow but yet they both are still called prostitutes!

I thought about a new thread but I'll just put this here.
Mankind love their Man-Gods. Through out time we've made meer men into gods as some form of security blanket with the idea they possess some measure of infallibility. It's our nature to do this and neither sex, religion or even political affliation stops it. It's literally everywhere.
It's one thing for adults to manipulate adults and use adults, we're big boys and girls and should know better but it really bothers me when adults take children and do things like this.

Just because you hide authoritarianism, absolutism and autocracy behind the face of a child doesn't mean it can't devolve into horrific consequences.
