Who's the Boss?

I thought after last year's successful campaign by Barack Obama that we would see a real change in a leader taking control of his situation, setting his agenda and pushing his priorities through Congress. What I have seen is a leader abdicating his leadership role to Nancy Pelosi, taking his agenda from Rahm Emanuel and pushing his priorities to the people as if he were still on the campaign trail.

Give it up Barack! You won the damn election so get off your campaign horse and start acting like a leader instead of a campaigner. You thought this was going to be easy, didn't you? You thought that Americans were in love with you and anything you even mentioned would be grasped by someone in your party and taken to completion with no guidance or forethought by you required. You couldn't have been more wrong.

How arrogant you have been in your rush to criticize everything Bush and most things American. You have gone on a worldwide apology tour for America which enabled you to pray for forgiveness for George Bush's numerous sins against the world. And the world loved seeing you apologize. And your sycophant followers in America loved your apologies as well. All was seeming right with the world again, according to the liberal mantras.

You squandered your good will immediately once you got in office by pushing a massive, ridiculous stimulus/porkulus bill that has stimulated nothing but Democrats demands for more pork and more government spending. You massive omnibus spending bill, the leftover task from last year's do-nothing Congress only served to further your party's desire for more power, more control, more spending, more government influence more of the same old shit we always get from politicians bent on making a name for themselves. And you followed that up quickly with the largest budget in US history including the largest single year deficit and you and your fellow Democrats patted each other on the back for ramming these things through Congress in record time.

I have been trying to decide if you are really an intelligent, thinking person who truly believes big government is the answer or if you simply like having the adulation and praise heaped upon you to mollify your tremendous ego. Either way you are proving to be an extremely ineffective leader of the free world and a disappointment to more and more people everyday.

It's a shame. I didn't vote for you, never would, but I always have hopes that a new president may actually prove to be more than what he seems. Someone who understands that once in office, the job becomes leaading with a rational mind and specific plan and methods of achieving your goals. I believe the only true agenda you believe in comes from the Rules for Radicals that your hero Saul Alinsky became so famous for. It's really a shame.

You have a limited time in office to accomplish your goals but you refuse to be straight with the American people about just what exactly those goals are. Because you know deep inside that your goals are not really the goals of the vast majority of the American people. Your goals are formed and hidden from the public because you know that if we knew your true intentions, there would be no f...ing way in hell you could accomplish them.

I wish you NO success in your agenda. I have NO desire to live in a socialized country. I have NO faith that you will wake up and realize you have been wrong. I have NO love for a president that thinks spreading the wealth around works better for everyone. I have NO doubt that America will be a worse place to live 4 years from now. I have NO idea how long we can endure the idiocy and scatterbrained approach to governing we have been seeing this year.

I do, however, believe that enough Americans loyal to the true spirit of a Constitutional Republic and what it means will rise up and present enough roadblocks to stop the mad rush to government health care intrusion and the idiocy referred to as Cap and Trade. I believe this will be stopped this time. But I fear we cannot stop it forever. Each generation coming up becomes more and more accustomed to government involvement in their lives and each generation seems to want and demand more of it. The tipping point is sure to happen sometime.

I only desire to outrun it.

OH
