Can You Believe Anything Obama Says?

Ok, I have decided to pretty much make it my goal to do all I can to make sure Obama doesn't get re-elected in 2012. I am not sure that a Republican takeover of Congress this Fall will help that. It probably helps his cause, the way it did with Clinton in the 90's. Right now, since they are the minority party, Obama and the Democrats have to take all the blame for the current problems this nation faces. Therefore, if I were purely a party partisan, I might want the Republicans to make gains, but stay in the minority.

Yes, I do want to see this country get turned around. I did want Obama to succeed. I wanted him to defeat Hillary Clinton in the primary, initially. But, once I learned more about him, the less I liked him. Now, I am convinced he is simply a vain, arrogant, egotistical man more impressed with being a celebrity than he is in having the ability to solve the nation's problems.

I can't believe anything that this man says anymore. He shows up on "The View" and delivers this gem..."We shouldn't be campaigning all the time. There is a time to campaign and there is a time to govern." Huh?

Coming from the president who has made more talk show appearances and more photo-ops and more speeches to talk up his agenda than any other president in history, I find this mind boggling. The man is constantly in campaign mode.

Then, the man has the nerve to go to Detroit and claim that the bailout of GM and Chrysler has been a success. Again, huh? The bailout has simply gone to save the jobs of union workers working within a company whose products no one wants to buy. GM just announced its first quarterly profit in three years. If not for the problems with Toyota, I guarantee that GM would not be making a profit.

If you want to look to an auto company that is doing things right, you can stay in Detroit and look at Ford. Ford kept away from government money, and has improved its product line and has been significantly improving its market share.

The bottom line is that I think Obama is a lousy president. He campaigned as a moderate, but his agenda is clearly liberal. He campaigned as a uniter, and has divided us more than ever. Every day, he slams the Republican party for obstructing his agenda, when he and the Democrats have more power than any party has since LBJ. He and the Democrats still blame George W. Bush for everything. Blame, blame, blame. The man acts with no class.

I'm sorry, but I just don't like the guy. I guess that makes me a racist.
