I watched the President's so-called press conference last night. First, I do not believe that the President does not want our government to have a controlling interest in as many major businesses as possible. His template is one of progressive liberalism. You heard him in the past, he wants to stop what he feels is corporate greed and Barney Frank and Chris Dodd want to stop businesses from any sort of financial practice that seems risky. Based on all the outrageous acts by the Treasury Secretary, Barney Frank and his gang and the President himself to tamp down and place controls on businesses, by their outrageous attempts to demonize any of the people who took bonuses to the point of actually putting them in physical danger, in fear of thier lives, I have to believe that the President very boldly lied at the press conference last night. With regard to government intrusion in GM and other car companies, they should stay out of it 100%. They have no businesses being in business. Period. For me it is not a negotiable idea. And, I am getting very sick, sick as can be... every time I hear our President climb up on his pedestal.., on his Greek column, and become the most pretentious pompous jackass that has ever held the office of President as he says how he is making us safer, and a better nation, by ridding the practice of hard interrogation used by the CIA. By saying that, here is what he is saying to you and me and the rest of us. Here is how he wants us to think and feel. The next time you hear a news report that a US commercial jet has been hijacked by Al-Qeuda terrorists and has been slammed into another skyscraper full of our fellow citizens, this time in Chicago, or perhaps San Francisco, or perhaps the city you or I work in, and.., perhaps your son or daughter or wife or father is in that structure... and you see images on the news of your family member leaping to his or her death from a 20th story window because flames caused by the attack are consuming everything and everyone around into piles of charred human remains... just remember one thing... at least no terrorist was tortured for the information that might have prevented it, and no terrorist will have to face harsh interrogation as a result, so please feel good about our values as a country, and don't forget to thank President Obama for making us a better nation for it.
I also want to address the idea of the United States sitting down to face to face unconditional talks with the leaders of enemy nations. One of the things we have as a nation with incredible success and power and wealth, is our stock as a presence in itself with whom a mutual meeting or conference with immediately lends credibility to the posture and leadership of the nations we meet and conference with. For foreign entities, meeting with high ranking members of our government is a privilege, not a right. It is an earned achievement, not a God granted liberty. We debase, weaken, and undercut the image , the integrity, and the strength of our name, our history and our position by throwing down with the lowest vermin in the world without condition. WE are the country who must set conditions to be met for those who wish to have the honor and prestige of negotiating with the greatest human power for liberty and democracy on earth. Obama has sold us out by giving up our image and prestige and power to the worms and ticks and other vermin who want to bleed us dry. He disgraces us when he does that. He is simply an insufferable fool who proves almost daily that he has no understanding of what it takes to be a leader. His popularity is going to wane, I think more quickly than anyone is willing to admit. A cult leader has his followers in his grip only till he makes a mistake that goes so deep that his followers have no choice but to be shocked by it. Remember Jim Jones and the People's Temple? Guyana, I think it was. They stayed with him until... he gave the order to start drinking the poison. Then, what did he have to do? He needed armed guards to keep people from fleeing as they tried to run from thier own forced suicides. Obama so very much reminds me of Jim Jones. His followers being led down the primrose path to thier government-enforced suicides for the sake of his own twisted glory. Obama is trying to make the country into his own version of Jim Jones' People's Temple and himself into an unchallengeable God.
