I have never seen any President of the United States who has done more damage in his first month in office. President Obama believes the Executive Order constitutes a Royal Decree, and he has used it to garner power.
Did you know that Obama has now put the Census Bureau under his White House Chief Of Staff? (It was not widely reported.)
Do you know that Acorn is getting money from the so-called "stimulus bill" just passed by two votes in the Senate? (You have to read the bill for yourself to believe what's in it. What's not? Stimulus.)
Have you ever seen so many corrupt politicians in any cabinet? Proven tax-evaders, like Geithner,Secretary of the Treasury, now hold the purse strings. And what a purse it is! Trillions--yes, folks, trillions--of money is now in the hands of a man who refused or forgot or simply couldn't decipher the tax code (right) enough to pay his own taxes on "consulting fees." He did manage to take the reimbursement checks which the company provided to pay those taxes and put them into his own pocket, still without paying the taxes they were intended to pay.
Then there are more--some who've resigned their nominations because their failures to pay taxes were even greater. Of course, there's Charles Rangel, a tax-evader of the First Stripe, who has yet to do anything to rectify his own problems with the IRS. But now, the IRS is under Geithner. Talk about putting the fox in charge of the hen house!
And who's at the top of all these nominations? King Obama. I suppose you can take the boy out of corrupt Illionois politics, but you can't take the corrupt politics out of the boy, er President or Monarch.
I'll say this for him--Obama, that is: he's crafty. He uses the Executive Order like a sharp sword.
He says that his message is one of "hope" then everywhere delivers his messages of "catastrophe" if we don't ACT NOW, even if it's wrong! Then he blames it all on the Bush Administration.
Unbelievable, but then there are many who are so blind that they will not see what is going on. His every word is music to their ears, instead of the sound of the needle ruining an old vinyl record as it makes its deep scratch. Like that needle, he moves swiftly, carving into the very fabric of our Constitution and leaving us with socialism. Yes, I said socialism, and I'm being kind to stop there.
Greed is a disease; power is fatal--to the one who wields it poorly as well as to the nation who is governed by him. It is not yet too late.
But AMERICA WAKE UP! If you do not, when you do, you'll wake up to a country you do not recognize, did not want, but can't leave.
The Republicans put up a united front in the House; I hope and pray that they will do so again and that those enlightened Democrats and Independents will join them.
In the Senate, three senators "let their side down," but more than that, they let our country down. And they did it knowingly. The two naive senators from Maine, Snowe and Collins, were easy prey it seems. But I expected more from Sen. Specter who is up for re-election in 2010.
Sen. Specter, you have nothing to lose, and everything to gain by taking a stand against this waste! As it stands now, your own state is calling for your head on a plate.
I also feel compelled to tell those Members of the Senate who prate about "constituents" that in matters like these, matters which affect every human being in this nation, constituency comprises the entire population of the US, not just the people in your state or district.
I urge every elected official in state or federal posts to take heed and cast your votes for the right things, instead of for your own glory. Glory fades quickly.
If I sound like I'm all doom and gloom...I am. I see no light here--just a bunch of cronyism and power-mad politicians eager to curry favor with the king.
