Don’t believe the facts, believe in President Obama
Written by Michael Vass
I think I get it now. President Obama and leading Democrats are embarrassed. With the complete failure of the Obama Stimulus, Democrats look as dysfunctional and incompetent as their detractors have claimed. So the story has to change.
From before the onset of the Obama Stimulus, I have said it was a bad idea. When Speaker Nancy Pelosi first floated the idea (then only a mere $50 billion in cost) in 2008 I was against it as a waste of our taxes. When the Obama Stimulus became bloated to $787 billion I screamed at how bad it was. The fact that no one, in the White House or Congress, read the proposal confirmed every fear I had.
But it became a fact, and we were promised success. We were provided imaginary numbers of success and job improvement as facts like the Government unemployment numbers steadily rose. But the fact that the Obama Administration had cuckholded the majority of the news media ensured that the focus was on their rosy projections and not reality.
Then came the reports. Facts from every State in the nation. And as they came in reality was almost unavoidable. The Obama Stimulus was only responsible for wasting the taxes of future gererations that have yet to even have a chance to earn a dollar. And there is no question of failure.
Not even MSNBC, the favored parrot of the Obama Administration, could cover up the evidence. Claims of 150,000 jobs created in May, false. Projections of 1 million jobs created or “saved”, a pipedream more likely to exist in the mind of a crack addict. The waste? In the tens of billions.
Every Democrat responsible should be embarrassed, to say the least. In Binghamton, where I live, Mayor Matt Ryan was able to create or save 430 jobs, with 38 small businesses created. That may not sound like alot, but that is about 1% of the population. The Obama Stimulus was proposed to improve the lives of roughly 1% of the nation (in 2 - 4 years), with 1/3 of this happening by this month. In fact the Obama Administration acheived 30,000 jobs out of 1,000,000 (don’t even think of it in comparison to the 3.5 million jobs targeted). That’s a failing grade no matter the polispeak spin.
In fact the city of Binghamton out performed the entire State of Rhode Island, among others. Bridges and roads across the nation are no better off. And unemployment is about to cross 10% (2% higher than the worst case detailed by President Obama in February).
But think about this. The Obama Administration has decided to avoid their failure and accountability. They are attacking anyone that points out their ineptness. They are using their mouthpieces, MSNBC and others, to shun and berate those that would provide fact and not the lofty words of President Obama. They are distracting the nation as best as they can from the truth. The truth that a candidate Barack Obama promised to make as clear and transparent as no other Administration had ever done.
While this is happening, the Democrat led Congress is marching forward with a Health Care Reform that is equally as ineffective and filled with faulty logic as the Obama Stimulus was. No one has read the Health Care Reform Bill, as it has yet to be fully written. The cost of the Reform has been obfuscated by seperating some of its costs from the Bill and using a math that only the Government could decipher. And again, any form of critique is being declared racist, uninformed, false, and/or forbidden.
All this while in the cracks a Cap & Trade Bill is moving slowly forward that will increase the cost of heating and electricity. Claims that it will improve the global climate are laughable. Claims that it will reduce costs are unintelligible. And questions of whether the Bill has been written or if anyone has read it go unasked.
So yes, the Democrat leadership are embarrassed. They are desperate to keep attention on anything but the attempts at leadership they have presented thus far. They are holding on tooth and claw until they can get re-elected, keeping their majority grip on changes in the nation.
This is change I believe because it is happening. The results are striking the nation, like it or not. And the President is ducking for cover until the dust hides him from sight.
But the question to you is this. Will you be good little voters and only pay attention to what the White House says and none of the facts? Will you continue to be enraptured by the mere sound of President Obama, though those sounds equate to words without substance? Will you cower to the will of the Liberal far-left as the nation is fundementally and irreprobly changed? Will you vote to re-elect the very people that look upon reading the Bills before them, or answering to the electorate, with disdain and contempt?
