Hail The Dictator- in-Chief by Dr. T

"The idea of doing things on my own is very tempting, I promise you, not just on immigration reform. But that's not how our system works. That's not how our democracy functions," Obama told the National Council of La Raza.

So there it is...it's all you need to know. I have said from the time this man was campaigning that he is no supporter of "the American Way". Every now and then the facade gets thin and the real Obama emerges. But frankly, the statement above should not surprise anyone with a brain larger than, say, Joe Biden. This President has circumvented our laws over and over again. He shoved Obamacare down our throats and the courts are ruling that it is unconstitutional. He refuses to abide by the immigration laws that are on the books and to add insult to injury, he threatens States with lawsuits if they abide by those very laws. He has spent us into oblivion because he hates business and has a skewed ideology that resembles Europe, not the U.S. He is not Presidential material as evidenced by his never-ending finger pointing and whining. In spite of what he says, the economic disaster was not caused by acts of God, unrest in the Arab world, George Bush or the Tea Party....it was caused by failed policies put forth by a Congress and an administration that is anti business and anti growth.
He is frighteningly reminiscent of the Roman Emperor Nero. Becuase Rome was for centuries the epicenter of the world, Nero took his eye off the ball. He played and indulged himself and as they say...fiddled while Rome burned around him. America had better wake up or our fate will be the same. We have long been the epicenter of the world but we have not kept our eye on what the Washington elites have been doing for nearly 60 years. Liberalism took hold within the hallowed halls of Washington and within our educational facilities. Rugged individualism was replaced by out of control entitlements and overreaching regulations. Banks and mortgage companies have run amok often because of bad governement decisions. With our unemployment at well over 9.2% our Secretary of Agriculture has recently pronounced that food stamps are actually a stimulus to the economy. A prime example of the mentality of this administration. Our President is content to play golf and take an unprecedented number of vacations. Oh yes, he promises to reveal another stimulus plan once Congress returns to Washington in September.

Fiddle anyone?

AAA...AA...What Does It Mean? by Dr. T

Our world revolves around "perception as reality." When the "un-deal" was finally announced last week the markets took a no-confidence dive and they have been in free fall ever since. Standard and Poors, who have long threatened to downgrade our triple A rating, did as they warned last Friday and the Dow has been falling ever since. This is the worst tumble since 2008. So what does our illustrious President do in the face of this economic disaster? Why, he does what he always does, he runs out and makes a speech and points the blame finger at everyone else. This has become his "modus operandi" and everyone is on to him. So much so, that while his lips were still moving the market fell over 200 points more. I do believe this is the "coup de grace" for Mr. Obama. As painful as it is for all Americans, perhaps this downgrade
was necesary, if only to wake folks up to the fact that this President, his "economic" team, and most of Congress don't have a clue. While the Republicans had real dyed in the wool solutions, they did not stick to their guns, they backed down and allowed the Senate and the President to dictate an abysmal outcome. They actually handed the President another blank check and made not one worthwhile cut. Oh wait, I should correct myself...they are going to establish another "bi-partisan commission." These ever-so-clever sophisticates will decide where to "trim." Don't you feel better already? Lets see, we've had about 17 commissions already and we are in worse shape. So these geniuses will get to work rearranging deck chairs on the Titanic and we'll be wearing life preservers 'til 2012 in the hope that the ship rights itself. Hang on, we're in rough seas.
