Obama Shoots for Mars

by Larry Elder

President Barack Obama, on Tuesday night, gave his first presidential address before Congress. He looked good, sounded great, and delivered his address with poise and confidence. He entered the Capitol and made his way through the applauding throng like a modern-day Moses slowly parting the Red Sea.

The moment was certainly historic, and all Americans — or at least nearly all Americans — took pride in living in a country that went from a Constitution that defined a black as ...

I have gone beyond blaming Obama for the sham that is his presidency so far. To blame him would be like blaming P. T. Barnum for fleecing suckers who couldn't wait to stand in line to be fleeced. America, you bought this moron, endowed him with the power to put his "agenda" into action, and now you wil experience the pain of being governed by someone who, rather than put up an umbrella when it rains would order the rain to stop falling.

The Constitution did not, repeat NOT, define a black as "three-fifths of a person," and I do wish people would stop repeating that old canard. In logic, it's known as the "division fallacy." It's like saying: "I live in Los Angeles County. The population of Los Angeles County is 45 percent Hispanic. Therefore, I must be 45 percent Hispanic."

Obama's Tuesday movie was same hype, different day! Nothing mentioned and most important "cutting their own salaries and retirements" as this is only way to pull United States out of recession! It looks like 'all the king's horses and all the king's men' will never put America back together again! They have no concept of what's going on in the real world! Hillary Clinton is nothing more than another 'mouthpiece' that will help drag America further into bankruptcy. It's a proven fact that the only way to protect America's future is by creating stable jobs in the private sector and not bigger government. The 'Haste' for Obama and his party with this Stimulus shows lack of experience, no thought, as usual, given to the future of America, let alone creating jobs that will be the 'HeartBeat of America', which is textile and furniture manufacturing. As I've stated before, No Infrastructures needed if America has no stable job market, which is obvious, there is no stabililty in America and hasn't been since 1977! Where have you been? If Obama and his party think that they're re-building the housing market and the damage done by Freddie, Fannie, AIG, Big 3, or anyone else taking Taxpayers money they're not entitled to, think again! When people got to borrow four to five times and approximately sixty (60%) percent more than the house would ever be worth, there's absolutely no way to 'bailout the housing markets!' What needs to happen is close down Freddie, Fannie, AIG, BIG 3, and politicians that were on the take! Then, send all politicians, with just clothes on their backs, that were in on this 'shaft to American people, to Guantanamo, with no return to America. Take all assets, put them into Trust Funds, and figure out how to pay back the trillions owed to foreign countries, before we can't pay the interest! Taxpayers feel that Obama and his tax and spenders are only interested in their own salaries, retirements, social and welfare programs, which are a real problem, creating more and more terrorists on American soil! If they were really interested in America, wouldn't they be 'trying to save' instead of 'spend, spend, spend?' Politicians are going around the issues, worse now than ever before! Daily, there's more spending on housing, social and welfare programs called "Too many Illegitimates born to single women, by several different men, and they surely have not nor will be "trained or disciplined" at home. "It's a way of life" and the more kids they have the more Taxpayer's monies they collect, therefore, these people shouldn't be entitled to insurance, housing,doctors,medical, schools, etc. If they don't work they're not doing anything constructive for America and shouldn't be compensated! It is imperative that America get back on track, as we're running out of time! It's time to take a long, hard look at what's happening, instead of ‘creating' more useless programs using Taxpayers money that hasn't worked and never will. It's only creating more and more terrorism in America! While I'm on a roll I would like to point something out and I quote "Obama stated that he'd inherited a very bad economy from George Bush and his administration!" I hate to be the one to burst his bubble and bring him down, but the 'bad economy,' was created in 1977 by one of his own party!
