100 Days And Other Stuff

I know that top on the list for many people today is the fact today marks 100 days that Barack Obama has been the President of the United States, and people want to talk about his accomplishments since becoming President. Of course, as Mark Levin points out, it's really not about him, it's about the American people, and frankly, we're all still struggling and trying to work our way through all that is going on, but if the Government will get their hands off of us a little bit, we'll make it. But really, what is it that the President has Accomplished? Trillions of Dollars in new debt that even our descendants may not be able to repay. The dismantling of our National Security apparatus that has kept us safe since 9/11. The release of top secret documents and the selling out of our intelligence community. Threatening lawyers with federal prosecution for giving legal opinions that differ from the policies of his Administration. Which of these things are laudable? I don't find any of them even remotely praiseworthy.

There are other things going on today. Right now we have an hyped up panic about Swine Flu, which the democrats are trying to manage and use to push us toward their disastrous plans for our health care system. Basically, people are getting the flu. The very young and the elderly, or those who are already unhealthy for some other reason are in real danger, just as they are from the "regular" flu, but all current indications are that nobody is in any more danger from this flu than they are from the "regular" flu. But of course, no matter what, we can know that we are in good shape because we have two idiotic failed Governors looking out for us.

And of course, people are still talking about the loser Senator from Pennsylvania, Arlen Specter bailing on the Republican party in favor of the Democrats. Of course, he went out there and claimed that the GOP has gone too far to the right. I've talked about this before, the truth is that the Republican Party has moved to the left, and the Democrats have moved hard left, and fast. Is the gap wider now than ever before? Yes, but certainly not because the GOP has moved right, but because they have not moved left as fast as the Democrats.

With a President that doesn't even like the American people, or the nation as a whole and spends most of his time talking down the USA every chance he gets in every Country he can, and denigrating any American Citizen that disagrees with him. With one party rule in the House of Representatives, and danger of the same happening in the Senate. With a majority of Federal Judges being leftist activists. If our fellow citizens don't start waking up, we are in big trouble.

One other thing, I just saw President Obama making a statement, again deriding those citizens that attended the TEA parties earlier this month, basically dismissing them out of hand, but what really stuck me was at the end of the video clip, when he said that some people want to blame all of his reckless spending (my paraphrase there) for our problems, but that the Stimulus and such are only a small part of the problem. He actually admitted that his actions are, in fact, part of the problem. Kind of stunning thing for him to admit don't you think? Must've been talking without his teleprompter.
