Default Infatuation.....

This editorial goes to part of the nucleus of my theory that our President, while he seems like a nice guy, has conned this nation. As we watch him do the opposite (in some cases, the EXACT) of what he says (and he says it so beautifully) NOBODY is watching...NOBODY is critiquing him !

"The Obama infatuation is a great unreported story of our time. Has any recent president basked in so much favorable media coverage? Well, maybe John Kennedy for a moment; but no president since. On the whole, this is not healthy for America.

Our political system works best when a president faces checks on his power. But the main checks on Obama are modest. They come from congressional Democrats, who largely share his goals if not always his means. The leaderless and confused Republicans don't provide effective opposition. And the press -- on domestic, if not foreign, policy -- has so far largely abdicated its role as skeptical observer."

Obama has inspired a collective fawning. What started in the campaign (the chief victim was Hillary Clinton, not John McCain) has continued, as a study by the Pew Research Center's Project for Excellence in Journalism shows."

"Obama's rhetoric brims with inconsistencies. In the campaign, he claimed he would de-emphasize partisanship -- and also enact a highly-partisan agenda; both couldn't be true. He got a pass. Now, he claims he will control health care spending even though he proposes more government spending. He promotes "fiscal responsibility" when projections show huge and continuous budget deficits. Journalists seem to take his pronouncements at face value even when many are two-faced."


Folks this is not a right wing nut job as some editorialist are called. A serious non partial writer...read it.

We need somebody in some corner to stand up and call him on some of the things that are going on...everything that was predicted is coming true. The government is so involved in banking and finance...own GM...the unions are growing in strength and keep an eye on legislation that will make them even stronger. This is happening at light speed and we better wake up !

Watch what he does, not what he says !!!!
