Hope?

What happened to all the optimism? It's been one hell of a couple of days. Since the news that we elected Obama as our next President the Dow Jones Industrial average has taken the worst two day loss since 1987. I thought him getting into office and the news of the upcoming demise of the republican party was supposed to make our nation just spew prosperity from the seams. I guess not. In addition to that the President of Russia on the day after the election decided to speak up. Apparently it's not just American liberals who blame "W" for everything, it turns out the war in Georgia (I'm not talking about the state that lies south of South Carolina....just in case any liberals read this) is the current administration's doing as well. And here we thought "W" wasn't doing anything for the last eight years, let's see, he personally orchestrated a hurricane, caused the downward spiral of the housing market, and started a war somewhere that there is no American military involvement what so ever. He has had a pretty full plate no wonder he hasn't weighed in on the important issues like gay marriage. My point with the Russian thing is this we haven't heard a peep out of them in what 20 years now all of a sudden they are calling us out. Coincidence? I don't think so. I think not. It's like when a kid's tough guy older brother goes off to college, the local bullys are going to what they can get away with. We can exspect more of this to come. It's only been two days. He's not even been sworn in yet. Next subject....Illegal immagration. I think Obama's economic and social plans will actually make them a necessity. Most illegals are willing no happy to do work that we as Americans no longer want to do. IE. cut grass, dig ditches, roofing, general labor. Why would they? It's alot easier to walk to the mailbox and go cash the check. This will only become more common under his plans. Especially when he starts handing out free college educations. When I say free I mean that the ones going to school won't be paying for it you and I will. Look I'm sorry not everybody should go to college. There are grants and scholarships out there for exceptional students. There is the GI bill. There are loans. I think it's too easy now to get a degree. It has devalued a four year degree. I think if you get a government funded education it should come with the stipulation that you can never in your life get government assistance, other than disability should you become physicly unable to work. After all if more people had the oportunity to go college it would reduce the need for welfare, right? Anyway if his plans go into play you will have all these folks out there collecting mailbox money or with college educations. Who's going to get a minimum wage job ( even if it's $10 an hour by then) We will need illegals. Then the solution will be to grant them citizenship this will try to be sold to us under the guise of "but then they'll pay taxes" but only if they make $250,000 a year. When in fact the agenda will be to get them eligible to vote. After all who are they going to vote for. I could go on and on. It's a slippery slope and we are standing on the edge.

Even Slick Willie admits it!

If you read my first entry in this blog I want to let you know my post will eventually become more light hearted and not so cynical. I will talk about a variety of topics as soon as I get over this political nightmare. That being said I want to voice my opions on a few other things about our president elect. I hope with all my heart I am wrong about this guy, we as a nation cannot afford for me to be right. The point to all this is we don't know he hasn't built up a resume' of anything. He is a first term senator. If you ask one person you know "Tell me one thing Obama has done to make you think he can do anything that he says he will do." (and beleive me I have asked this question alot) I still haven't gotten a straight answer. Why? Because he has done nothing. As far as I can tell he has given good speeches. Another liberal champion even stated what I have been trying to get across to people. The fact that Obama is a creation of the media.
here is the Quote:
Another politician with a superb sense of timing, Bill Clinton, perfectly understood why Obama saw a golden, possibly once-in-a-lifetime, opportunity. The former president believed that the mainstream press, whose liberal guilt Clinton understood and had exploited from time to time, would act as Obama's personal chauffeur on the long journey ahead. "If somebody pulled up a Rolls-Royce to me and said, 'Get in'," Clinton liked to say, with admiration and maybe a little envy, "I'd get in it, too."
That's right William Jefferson Clinton. or as his friends call him Mr. Hillary. He said this last year. He saw this coming and knew how it was going to happen. But the media sure as hell didn't let that slip out during the campaign. My point is his record didn't come into play during the capaign because he doesn't have one. I'm just glad the secret service provides a driver to take him anywhere he wants to go because he hasn't been in D.C. long enough to find his way around without stopping and asking for directions. I will wrap up this post with one final thought, somone asked me this morning "What did you think of the election?" my response was "The best politician won." he said "don't you mean best man?" I said " After what McCain did for this country and his time as a POW, Obama will never be a better man."
You bought it America now we get to open the package.

Congratulations America!

Congratulations America!

You did it! You set a precedent! Now when all the liberals and "progressive" people out there are done patting each other on the back please take a minute to realize what you have actually done. YOU drank the Kool Aid. You bought into the hype created by the liberal media machine. The same machine that was more worried about what Gov. Palin was wearing ona daily basis than important issues. You wanted change, well you're going to get it. Talk to me in a couple of months when the capital gains tax shoots up to around 30%. See how you like when the minimum wage changes, and the unemployment rate rises right along with it. Or when our military forces overseas changes and we begin to withdraw and someone else flys a plane into a building. Or the Big Red Dragon that is Korea and China senses our new found weakness in leadership and decides now is a good time to test us. Or when the healthcare system changes and the standard of care is lowered. Or when big corparations are further taxed and decide it's cheaper to do business outside our borders and pack up and leave. Like Hershey's chocolate did. That's sure to help the economy. (Thanks NAFTA) For the past few years people have been ridiculing the President, for mistakes and decisions that were made. When the fact is no administration has had this much to deal with since the second world war. So lets put someone in the White house with no experience. Great Idea! Yes Obama is charismatic and a good speaker and talks of change, so was another world leader afew years back......Hitler, you may have heard of him. Obama's economic plans are socialism plain and simple if you can't see that well there is no hope for you, you've been blinded by the golden voice and that slick smile of his. Socilaism is like cold fusion it looks good on paper, but no one has figured out how to make it work right. And when it goes wrong it blows everything up. Ask the Russians. I realized it's unfair to compare our President elect to Hitler and former Russian leaders, they had experience, he does not. So congratulations America you weakened a nation tonight. Enjoy your Kool Aid, I hope it taste as good in four years!
