A Lousy Deal

It appears that Mr. Obama’s popularity has reached a crescendo. About sixty percent of the people still like this hip, cool cat, but they are backing away from his agenda. If the economy suddenly brightens he will again be on solid ground, but that’s a frayed lifeline.

Right now his administration is in mud right up to the top of its boots. It’s the staggering deficit that he built, with the help of Pelosi and Reid, which has folks twitching. As it turns out, moderate Democrats and Independents aren’t willing to sell the financial independence of their children and grandchildren for thirty pieces of silver.

Of course, his drooling supporters don’t have a problem with destroying private enterprise and our national security for that price. In truth, they don’t understand the relationship between business, productivity, capital investment, employment, prosperity and the generation of taxes which funds their lifestyle.

His hardcore constituency is comprised of bureaucrats, illegal aliens, ignorant environmentalists, union members and welfare recipients. These are not the people that fuel the engine of commerce that keeps America’s beacon shining. They are the sludge in the tank.

Compared to the goals of these freeloaders, Iran’s President Ahmadinejad is a wonderful man who is merely a victim of bad publicity.

Obama’s nationalization of the banks and the auto industry, his bailout of the Wall Street elite, his effort to double or triple the cost of energy, while printing money, pushing blanket amnesty for illegal aliens and promoting an unfunded, government takeover of healthcare have people questioning his agenda.

Of course, the fiscally literate, including the Congressional Budget Office, are questioning his sanity and the intelligence of his followers.

The Middle Class is beginning to realize that its income is on the short list for income redistribution. And Pelosi, Reid, Barney and Obama are offering a lousy deal. They are buying the freedom and independence of America’s industrious with the money they plan on confiscating from them.

That’s like being forced to dig your own grave before being shot and dumped in the hole. And that is a perfect description of Obama economics. His agenda is digging capitalism’s grave; which this golden-tongued wonder is selling as tilled garden plots.

The 2010 congressional elections may not come soon enough. Pelosi, Reid and Obama still have eighteen months to undermine America’s greatness. The country is in grave danger, and there is no sign that the mainstream media is interested in challenging the implications of their socialist agenda.

These sycophants have raised pandering to an art form high enough to cast a shadow on the flags flying over our national cemeteries. They shame the nation, its Constitution and every person who believes in liberty. Compared to them, Obama is just a national disgrace.
