A man-made disaster
There are several things that I am not a fan of…specifically in President Obama’s term so far.
The first is the bail-out. If you want to lengthen a recession, go ahead and bail out people and companies that should fail. All you are doing is lengthening the recession. You are also giving people incentive to make bad choices again. The federal government bailed them out once, why should they learn a lesson from their bad choices? The federal government will bail out again.
The economists are not certain that the bail out will work. And it hasn’t. How do we know this? The Administration recently said that they believe there will have to be another round of bailouts to the banks. If the bailout would have worked the first time around, subsequent bailouts wouldn’t be necessary.
Then there is the way the First Family acted while visiting with the Queen in England. I have never been more embarassed of the First Family than at the moment those pictures were shown. The Obama family acted as if they were hillbillies and had no idea of proper manners.
In dealing with foriegn heads-of-state President Obama also knowtowed to the King of Saudi Arabia. For all the oturage that the left has about a polygamist ranch, places where women aren’t treated equally, gay-bashing and religion, President Obama certainly gave in to a King who rules a country where polygamy is common, women are not equal (by any stretch of the imagination), gays are beat and killed, and practicing any religion other than Islam will get you killed. The values that the left, and Presdient Obama, claims to stand against are embodied in Saudia Arabia, and he just bowed and knelt to the King - what impression do you think that leaves of American strength and commitment to American ideals?
Then he flew to Turkey and said: “We convey our deep appreciation for the Islamic faith, which has done so much over so many centuries to shape the world for the better, including my own country.” Excuse me? For all that the left hates to acknowledge it, the founders of the country had Judeo-Christiam values. I am not aware what, exactly, Islamic faith has done “over the centuries” to further our country. I know that Muslims have done a lot, but being Muslim is different from saying the Islamic faith has done a lot of further the goals of the country.
President Obama objects to the term “terrorism.” Instead we will all be using the term “man-made disaster.” Really? About the only man-made disaster that is aruond right now is the way the country is going. America is in the middle of a man-made disaster…the disaster that President Obama is making in this country and around the world.
