In the meantime, why don't we discuss who really is responsible for the various bad situations this country finds itself in. The President plays an important role, no doubt. But he can't do a thing without the authority and money provided by the Congress. He can't go to war, he can't create stimulus programs, he can't invent and install ObamaCare, he can't tax, he can't either create or cost the country even one job...he can't do any of that stuff without the legislation and funding created by the House and the Senate.
So when I'm critical of those who have campaigned for election based on certain principles and then fail to deliver on them. I focus my criticism on those in Washington who actually have the authority and responsibility to create laws that control fiscal issues. That's not the President.
As a matter of fact, I'm pretty sure that President Obama hasn't proposed anything in his recent "budget proposal" that is inconsistent with what he campaigned on. That is significantly different--so far at least--from those that sought election because they promised fiscal reform. Now that they haven't delivered, you damn bethcha that's who I'll be critical of.

Obama said in the campaign he would.... cut the deficit in half. INSTEAD he quadrupled it.
he said he would lower unemployment. It has gone out of site.
He said he would go through the budget line by line.. and cut. He didnt.
He said he would have transparent government. He has not.
He said he would balance the budget. He has the biggest deficits in history and is proposing at LEAST 7 trillion more debt over the next 10 years AND THAT assumes massive tax increases and revenue growth that are both will not happen... so the real debt in 10 years that is REPORTED not just unfunded will be over 25 trillions. God help us.
I could go on and on.. and you know it.
He is a big spending liberal who is INCREASING THE MASSIVE RIDICULOUS SPENDING of BUSH.. and both parties are destroying this country and you know it.
