It totally fails any logic whatsoever when one hears that anybody serious about America and its future still believes or wants to believe what President Barack Obama says and does. He has been on both sides of all issues since he first announced running for the highest office in the land until now. Take any issue: Raising taxes to not raising taxes or whatever else. He has been for it and he has been against it. The beauty of living today is the fact that everything one does or says is recorded and mostly on video. While he has accused big business and rich people for being greedy and selfish, he also has been saying the opposite.
We here at Common Sense University have been listening to him from the beginning when he first made noises about becoming President of the United States. Up until he got elected, it was all hyped in sloganeering “Yes, we can”, “Hope and Change” and more. Then he became President and he showed the world that he would deliver on his promises. He just needed some money to turn this economy around. Democrat-led Congress gave him all he wanted, nearly one trillion dollars, to immediately put America back to work with “shovel-ready jobs”. We know now how that turned out, no additional comment necessary!
Now he will give another speech this week to present his job creating plan and to turn the economy around. What he will read from his teleprompter we do not know in total but we know one thing for certain. He will ask Congress to pass another major stimulus bill to create jobs. In a way, the President reminds us of the two guys, let’s call them ‘Dumb’ and ‘Stupid’ who went into business for themselves. They decided to buy produce at a wholesale market and drive it to a major street corner in downtown where they would sell the apples, oranges, plums, strawberries and so on. They argued about what size truck to buy, Dumb wanted a small truck for starters while his buddy Stupid wanted a big truck. They settled on the little one. They now bought the produce every morning and drove into downtown to sell the goods. The only mistake they made was that they sold it for the same price. After one week, they tallied the money and found out there had been no profit. Stupid told his friend Dumb “I told you, we need a bigger truck!” End of story.
What we at this time have concluded about Obama is that he is way over his head and totally incompetent being President, what we do not know for certain is if what is happening to America is by design. His pre-election rhetoric would indicate it was his plan all along to bankrupt this country and turn us into a fully socialized one. Remember his little talk with Joe the Plumber in 2008 when he told him it was a good thing to spread the wealth around? The voters of America gave him a report card and answer to his plans and performance after his first two years in office when they turned the House of Representatives over to the Republicans. But he has not learned from that and instead now resorts to name-calling and the like to make the Republicans the fall guys for America’s misery and poor economic situation. He is still blaming his predecessor George Bush and unfortunately many people in this country still believe that.
Let’s not go along with his scheme! We just have to wait him out for the next seventeen months until January 2013. It will be hard for many if not most Americans but major mistakes are painful and we are seeing this play out before our eyes. We are simply paying a price for the mistake a majority of American voters made on Election Day in November 20008.
