.....Obama's rule has ended.
And not with a lot of joy in contrast to the way the first year started.
The man who promised Hope and Change brought little hope but lots of unwanted change.
Unemployment went from under 8 percent to more than 10 percent despite a huge federal stimulus costing us taxpayers more than 800 Billion bucks.
GM and Chysler were bailed out of their financial mess with taxpayer funds and the Unions, one of Obama's strongest organized support groups, getting a sweetheart deal in the process through a negation of long standing contract law. We have a "car czar" to rule Detroit. Ford went without federal tax $$ is is doing well in comparison to the other two American auto makers.
We are ruled by Obams's other czars, as many as 30 plus who were appointed by Obama's version of Faqwas: Executive Orders
Instead of concentrating on the real problems facing America, Obama went for the takeover route by making the federal overhaul (takeover) of our health care system his top priority. He should have concentrated on the economy, jobs, terrorism, taxes, wasteful federal programs, trade, and energy. Since few Americans want the federal government to run health care, Obama's approval numbers started to fall and continue to fall into early 2010. And for good reason.
Obama promised open government and transparency yet the monster health care bills were written behind closed doors with special interest groups. Two bills, a House version and a Senate version, each more than 2,000 pages that no member of either body read, were touted as the answer to America's health care problems. Neither bill addresses the real problem: cost. Neither bill included tort reform. Neither bill addressed insurance reform that would permit national competition. Neither bill provided coverage for all Americans, yet the bills mandated fines and criminal penalties for people who did not buy health care insurance. Not everyone needs or wants health care insurance. Why should a healthy 23 year old pay several hundreds or thousands of dollars a year for a service he/she may not need?
The special election in Massachuetts shocked the world. Little known Scott Brown ran as an "independent Republican" and upset the favorite and took Ted Kennedy's old Senate seat. Kennedy must have rolled over least once in his resting place.
Obama spent months apologizing for America's power, influence, wealth, and productive life style. He is our first anti-American president. He is also our first African-American Jimmy Carter.
Obama is soft on terrorism. After the Christmas Day bombing aboard an American airliner near Detroit the bomber, from Nigeria, was questioned for 50 minutes and turned over to his ACLU lawyer. No fair trying to glean any intelligence about his training, future terrorist attacks, or any information that might assist us in preventing or disrupting international terrorism.
Amateur hour, indeed.
Obama did declare one war during his first year. Yep, it was an all out attack on FOXNEWS. I think Obama is following Hugo Chavez's lead. Look for more attacks on Obama critics in the coming year.
Obama fails to see that his policies and ideas are driving his ratings down. He is incapable of change, however, and will push his leftist agenda at all costs to the country. That is what happens when we elect a dedicated socialist president.
I think Obama and his crowd, his mentors, puppetmasters, the Chicago gang, his financial backers, and professional Lefties, you know the ones I mean, want our economy to fail. Then that failure will open the door for more federal government intervention, control, power, and influence in not only our daily lives, but in controlling businesses as well.
It's all part of the progressive plan to make us all perfect cogs in their dream system.
