I don’t understand how folks in our country can expect the President to suddenly change his spots. If there was ever a politician that was predictable when he was elected, this one was that one. I think Obama is more committed to being a liberal progressive than being an effective politician. The impact of this president will be viewed by historians as the most crippling for our country twenty years down the road. We could not have elected a more committed liberal than we did with Obama.
The Democrats had a lot to say about Barack Obama when he was a candidate. Not a one ever characterized him as a moderate. He has always been on the left side of his own party.
During the first two years of his presidency he continually demonstrated his liberal intent. Combined with the overwhelming majorities and most liberal leadership in both houses of the congress President Obama trampled on the Constitution and the rights of most Americans without a lick of resistance. Two years of the perfect storm.
Remember when he reminded John McCain that he had won the election.
Even now, following the election, the balance of power has shifted in the House to the Republicans and nearly balanced the vote in the Senate but the President and his management team who run the bureaucracies continue to march with regulatory changes that will cripple efforts to create jobs for many years to come.
By itself the EPA will dictate our National Energy Policy by preventing our domestic energy resources from being exploited through lawsuits by watchdogs at every critical point in the permitting processes.
We won’t build any oil refineries or nuclear power plants or hydroelectric dams. Period.
They won’t even let some of the preferred Green Energy sources be developed with federal subsidies because of the lawsuits. Their campaign is to cripple, not develop better policies.
The Congress gave up closer oversight because it was easy. It takes a lot of effort to do your job and hold the President’s bureaucrats accountable. The Checks and Balances laid out in the Constitution were set up to prevent one branch from gaining too much power.
Having so many liberal judges in the Federal Court System, the courts have taken a more aggressive approach to legislation than we should be comfortable with. That would leave us with the weakest Congress in the history of our country.
Americans cannot be hoodwinked by a President who is trying to re-spin himself into a moderate. If the Republicans fall for any of his spiel, it will give him breathing space to regroup. The stakes are too high for America to lose our momentum now. Keep the heat on!
No Loss for Words
Obama the Moderate? NOT!
