Can there ever be closure for the Greatest President the U.S. has had in the past 40 or so years. This man has done so much, won a Nobel Peace Prize for breathing, who else can claim such a deed? Any other accomplishments he may be credited for will be due to the Democratic party ramming what ever into new laws. The rich will still get richer and the poor will get poorer and Obama will keep on smiling all they way to the bank.
Ironsides
What I have noted from the worshipers of the New Democratic religion of Obama is as follows:
1- The US won't elect Obama and that will prove they are racists as many Liberals/Democrats stated- it would never cross a persons mind that perhaps polices would have something to do with electing or not electing a person. This to Dem's was all about racism if Obama lost. They conveniently forget Iowa - White -Mid West Rural - Small Town - America - He won a large victory that set the pace for other States - The US was tired of Bush and his lies - the War - Deficits - the Financial Crash - the list goes on. Obama wins in a landslide without really saying to much about what he would have as hard and fast on policies.
2- If you criticize him - you are either one or all of the following - Red Neck - Illiterate - Racist - Republican/Conservative Stooge - Just plain dumb -
3 - Anti -Obama is against the will of their new religion and against the US, Mom and Apple Pie. You will be slagged and treated as one or all of the above in point no 2
4 - When you question why he received the NPP based upon the criteria of accomplishments that ended on 28 Feb 09 - you realize he was President on Jan 20 - What did he do - Speak nice to the world - Yes - It is because he was not George Bush the Lesser -
So people have a new religion and it is as dangerous as Bush the Lesser - The press followed Bush and did so without question - We all saw the same thing in the Democratic Primaries with Obama - treated with kid gloves because the press did not know how to ask questions or criticize without be slammed as Racists and it still goes on.
I do wish and want him to succeed and the US remain as a world leader economically and militarily - Look around at the other contenders for those of you that disagree-
How many times has the US put blood and treasure on the line (other countries as well)- Given trillions in economic aid -
Churchill once said and the wording is not quite correct - One day the world will look to the US to lead and they won't be there. Pity the world.
