*News Flash!!!* Obama proclaims self "Lame Duck!"

Or at least that's what it sounded like, according to Sean Hannity on KMJ-AM. Paraphrasing freely, here's what was reported:

Upon hearing of his ever falling poll numbers, Mr. Obama talked of how, if his numbers didn't go up, he probably wouldn't run for re-election in 2012.

Now, there's a whole bunch of questions to be asked here, but one really comes to the fore; Does Mr. Obama realize that the Presidential Elections aren't like "the People's Choice Awards" or "American Idol?" Does he even realize that he's not in Jr. High anymore, and this isn't about how "dreamy" he is? Does he even understand that the "We, the People" (or at least those who voted for him ... DON'T BLAME ME, BUBBA!) elected him to "Lead?"

The pants were pulled down this week, in so many ways. The Gov't loved the study that said mammograms were "unnecessary" for most women. Naw, there won't be rationing, we'll just tell you that you "don't need care, anyway." (BTW, my dear Aunt, the Family Matriarch, just had her life saved by a mammogram & surgery this year. Go figure.)

Mr. Obama declared that he "might" be close to a Afghanistan decision in the "coming weeks."
Goodness, don't you agree with him that it would be premature to take less than 5 months to decide what to do in a WAR?
*NEWS FLASH!* OBAMA DECIDES "CHICKEN SALAD" FOR 2009 4TH OF JULY PICNIC!
WON'T KNOW ABOUT THANKSGIVING DINNER UNTIL CHRISTMAS!

Obama's Attorney General, in the latest passive aggressive move, decided that "The Courts" should try the 9/11 hijackers and plotters. This was to assure that, rather than being responsible for upholding a military tribunal's decision, Mr. Obama would put the decision of guilt or innocence for self declared terrorists in "the People's" hands. Do I need to ask where they're gonna find an "impartial" jury?

And today, Mr. Obama stated that "if we keep spending the way we are, we're likely to see a double-dip recession." This comes from a "Chief Executive" who is readying ANOTHER "STIMULUS PACKAGE," reported to be of at least $700 billion.

Mr. Obama, it might be time to come home, put on the sackcloth & ashes, and GET REAL.
You're on a very fast train of your own making, straight into the annals of History as the least effective and most openly vain & foolish American President.

Now, I don't want you to get me wrong, Mr. Obama. I DON'T "WANT" you to be a "failure." What you're not "getting" is that you're going to fail, as long as you try to keep up this stupid course of action. Go look up "passive-aggressive", and the diagnostics. Look for famous examples. And if you do, you'll notice that the person they usually damage the most is themselves.
At least, that is, the "average" " passive- aggressive." There's nothing average about you, sir.
It looks like you're gonna take us all with you.

It appears that our greatest National Deficit is a RESPONSIBILITY DEFICIT.
And sadly, the Buck never stops in the Obama White House.

And if I sound angry, it's because I am. I'm pissed at the never-ending parade of dweebs who keep trying to make the same things that failed for Mom & Dad, or their last marriage, or the last Administration, WORK.

Spending our way to prosperity won't work.

PERIOD. 

The Fallacy of TARP

or "Why top-loaded Stimulus plans won't ever work."

True stimulus will always be based upon restarting the true "economic engine": Free Enterprise. In the past, when insolvency loomed over a business, bankruptcy was the legal structure used to remedy the insolvency, and whenever possible, insure an equitable an outcome for all those invested.

If TARP had truly been meant to be a "stimulus" package, it would have assured that each citizen would be enabled to moderate and survive the burdens placed upon them by economic contraction. Instead, it has proven itself to be exactly the opposite:

A "Bailout."

That's what TARP and the more honestly admitted earlier bailouts of the Bush administration(s) were. Go take a look at the Wiki on bailout. You'll be shocked how true these words ring when the Politicians have decided that some entities are "Too Big To Fail!"

The treasonous part of this act is that, rather than deciding that America and it's Citizens were too big to fail, the Politicians decided that THEY were "Too Big To Fail." They felt that, since they were elected by the People, they were elected to Rule the People.

Their way of ruling the People? To preach how we must be "Renewable & Sustainable" while they themselves are profligate and wasteful, to shovel inflated dollars to those they truly consider their Constituents, those who fawn after them and fund their campaigns and send them on junkets and ... The list of "special interest" politically based handouts is virtually endless.

Instead of standing up honestly, and insisting upon the true transparency that bankruptcy would have produced, they have simply built another story on the financial "house of cards" that has been, and now continues to be produced by Wall Street and Washington. However, you must remember first that, if these Politicians and Economic Despots had the slightest shred of honesty, they would be speaking out against what they have wrought, and open their books.

Instead we get Federal Reserve Chairman Bernanke's insistence that the Fed won't open it's books to daylight.

Instead of bankruptcy and transparency, we repeatedly fall prey to the lies and obfuscations of financial and political confidence men (and yes, woman too) who campaign with nothing more in mind than the perpetuation of their own power, the power they've "worked so hard to earn." We see this locally, statewide & nationally.

A. Schwartzenegger, J. Brown, M.Villines and nearly innumerable names in California alone scream of the backslapping, glad-handing and promises that are handed out as though balloons at a birthday party.

ACORN, NEA, AARP ... These are only a very few of the "special interests" that do exactly what you cannot do: They spend every waking moment working on getting the most of the People's money for those they shill for, and insuring the continuance of the "favors" they "earn."

So, what can you do? Have integrity, stand up honestly and speak your mind. Don't retreat, don't just "take my word for it." Hold their feet to the fire.

And most importantly, DON'T EVER FORGET.
