2010- The Year

2010 - The year may be a year to forget except for good news in November.

Let's review.

Cold weather. Snow up to my a...! More snow.

Lousy politics in DC (nothing new there). Unneeded and unwanted federal government take over of the American Health Care System.

High unemployment. Obama said in 2009 jobs was in his mind and he was focusing his laser on jobs. Few jobs were created as more folks lost jobs.

Obama said in early 2010 he was focusing on jobs. Did he mean killing jobs or creating jobs? No one could tell because the nation kept losing jobs and the unemployment lines grew and grew. When Obama took office unemployment was 8 percent. It reached 10 percent despite "stimulus" bills passed by the Democrat controlled Congress.

Oil spill in the Gulf. Bad news because Obama quickly outlawed drilling/pumping oil/gas from existing wells.

Hence, higher gas prices. The politicians made the spill worse by polluting the air waves with their senseless talk. The best solution would have been to allow Nature to fix the spill which it always does in due time.

November brought good news as the voters revolted against the Democrats. The Dems lost the House by a large margin and lost 6 or 7 seats in the Senate.

The Tea Party is responsible in large part for the taxpayers revolt against out of control politicians who cannot do their job (creating a federal budget on time, protecting our borders, and spending taxpayer money as if it were their own). No, the DC crowd wants to spend more and more to buy votes and feed their pet special interests groups.

There is more work to do to clean up DC.

2012 is coming. Get ready.
