A nation of Arrogant Leaders

The U.S. it seems is dominated by arrogant, egotistical, self-centered leaders. Not just in politics, but in other areas of life...sports, business, entertainment, etc.

Last night, Lebron James held a one hour spectacle on ESPN labled as "The Decision." As if the entire world would be captivated by where this egotistical ass chose to play basketball for the next few years. Unfortunately, millions tuned in to hear this announcement, so what does that tell you about this country? We have nothing better to do than sit and watch some gazillionaire tell us where he intends to be employed? Meanwhile, millions are out of work and begging for a chance to work ANYWHERE!

Tiger Woods...need I say more? The arrogance with which he conducted his life the last five or six years speaks volumes about the man. And yet, he still can't seem to show any humility. Probably the most ungracious winner and sorest loser in sports. Phil Mickelson wins the Masters a year after learning both his mother and wife have breast cancer, and Tiger can't congratulate him during an interview after his round because he is pissed he didn't win himself.

Obama-Pelosi-Reid...we know what's best for the country in spite of what you think, so welcome to our stimulus package that has failed to stimulate, welcome to Obamacare that most of you didn't want and screw you Arizona, we want to keep the illegal immigrants here, because those are potential voters to save our asses.

90% of the politicians in Washington, as well as state and local government. They really could care less about the average Joe, it's more about increasing their power.

Just about all of Wall Street. Still not much apology there for screwing the country, and the world economy for that matter. The bigger keep getting bigger, and local banks get screwed.

Hollywood...these folks never seem to think that the rule of law applies to them. Just look at Lindsey Lohan this week...shocked at the prospect of going to jail after violating her probation. Charlie Sheen? Mel Gibson?

Honestly people, why do we continue to put these idiots on a pedestal? Oh, wait, because its the media that does it! The arrogant media, the elite media. This is what sells, so they put these people at the forefront of our lives. Then the media tries to minimize and de-legitimize real movements such as the Tea Party. The Tea Party movement, which is filled with every day people who have had enough of all this crap. Yet, the media labels them as extremists.

The country is run by a bunch of self-serving, arrogant people and it is time for the regular guy to take back this country.
