A New Era

obama-taking-oathUnlike most of the two million people in DC, I had to work Inauguration Day. President Obama is now our President. He’s my President and I want him to succeed in everything he does because our future depends on him.

I’m not ecstatic about the 8 years of Bush, for several reasons, immigration and the prescription drug program among others. Him and his advisers may not have understood what the end of Saddam would do to Iraq, but they eventually fixed it. His proclaimed conservatism, wasn’t all that conservative.

I don’t remember exactly the Bush inauguration, but I’m pretty sure there weren’t jeers and yelling from the crowd when Clinton came up to speak. The fact that Chaney came out in a wheelchair because he injured his back was hilarious for some reason. The arrogance and guile of these people make me sick. I guess they felt safe to do anything they wanted, just like the mob mentality they represent.

Do as I say

Our new era is starting with, “Do as I say and not as I do” with plenty of exceptions. If you don’t like the rules, change them or make an exception or just ignore them. These are special times and special times require special exceptions. Everything from the President’s Blackberry to a tax cheat in charge of the IRS and the no lobbyiest administration making exceptions for lobbyiest. People that yell the loudest about corruption are usually the most corrupt. Barney Frank is against corruption, with an exception to his own. The people that write the tax code can’t pay their own taxes or think their own rules don’t apply to themselves.

An Informed Electorate

Howard Stern sends a reporter to Harlem for a few “Man in the Street” interviews about Barack Obama. The clip speaks for itself.

October Surprise?

Probably not. I’ve heard this a few other places that Obama’s Honolulu birth certificate looks a little suspect and his time out of the country, there is an issue with his citizenship. I never realized the Annenberg at factcheck.org is the same Annenberg project in Chicago that Obama’s was connected to. If they were the same you would think someone would have brought that up somewhere by now.

Obama’s Own Words

The video says it all. Obama’s own words, Obama’s own voice. I just don’t understand how everything he has said the media has given him a complete pass on. He can say anything, his wife can say anything, he can associate with criminals, terrorists and racists and it’s all conveniently explained away. How bad does it have to get before the press stops covering for him?
