Beware the Wolf in Sheep's Clothing by Dr. T

Well I did it...I braved another "State of The Union Show". As it is an election year the President was very crafty in how he presented himself. I expected that he would give himself kudos for ending our involvement in Iraq; a political calculation for his base, and his orders to take out bin Laden and Ghadaffi. He took credit for creating 2 million private sector jobs, a number I highly dispute while also taking credit for putting American car companies back on top. These accomplishments are definitely on the short list and the President was careful to steer clear of all the failures with the exception of a brief mention of how some investments can go awry(while not mentioning Solyndra by name).

He brought up the same old mantra of higher taxes for millionaires, reforms for education and illegal immigration, and the building of infrastructure(didn't the stimulus take care of that?). He proposed a new federal program for helping folks in forclosure and a huge Department of Defense investment in "clean energy".

His focus was to say all the right things and this is where the crafty part comes in. Obama was all pro-America....all puffed up for the "Stars 'n' Stripes". He was pro Israel and heavy handed on Iran. He was all for natural gas exploration, stating that he would open up 75% of public lands for drilling. Anyone who has studied this man and his ideology knows this is not Barack Obama. But this is an election year so ...beware the wolf in sheep's clothing.
