Two standards?

After Katrina, the media blamed the lack of response on the Bush administration's dislike of black people.
Can we then conclude from the lack of media coverage and response by the Obama administration that Obama doesn't like white people?
See Below:
Where are the Hollywood celebrities holding telethons asking for help

in restoring Iowa and North Dakota and helping the folks affected by

the floods?     Where is good old Michael Moore?

Why is the media NOT asking the tough questions about why the federal government hasn't solved this problem?
......Asking where the FEMA trucks and trailers and food services are?


Why isn't the Federal government moving Iowa people into free hotels in Chicago and Minneapolis ?

When will Spike Lee say that the Federal government blew up the levees that failed in Des Moines ?

Where are Sean Penn, Bono, and the Dixie Chicks?

Where are all the looters stealing high-end tennis shoes, cases of beer and television sets?


When will we hear Governor Chet Culver say that he wants to rebuild a 'vanilla' Iowa ... because that's what God wants?
Where is the hysterical 24/7 media coverage complete with reports of shootings at rescuers, of rapes and murder?

Where are all the people screaming that Barack Obama hates white, rural people? My God, where are Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt,
Oprah, and Ray Coniff Jr?

How come you will never hear about the Iowa flooding ever again? Where are the gov't. bail out vouchers? The government debit cards?
More people died in these floods than from Katrina...how come the media doesn't report that?!!!!! There must be one hell of a big difference between the value of the people of Iowa and value of the people of Louisiana ..
HERE'S THE REAL TRUTH: 
THIS IS AN EXAMPLE OF GOVERNMENT CONTROL OF THE MEDIA, AND SOON TO BE GOV'T. CONTROL OF INTERNET, CELL PHONES, RADIO AND ALL COMMUNICATION AS WELL AS THE PRESENT NETWORK NEWS ON TV. 
WAKE UP, AMERICANS... 
WHOMEVER CONTROLS THE MEDIA CONTROLS THE COUNTRY! THIS IS ONLY ONE OF THE "ARMS" THAT IS NOW IN PLACE TO ACCOMPLISH THE TAKE OVER OF YOUR COUNTRY!

WHEN WE WERE YOUNG!

            To Those of You Born  1930 - 1979
           
            At the end of this email is a quote of the month by Jay Leno. If you don't read anything else, please
           
            read what he said. Very well stated, Mr. Leno.
           
           
            TO ALL THE KIDS WHO SURVIVED THE
           
            1930's, 40's, 50's, 60's and 70's!!
           
            First, we survived being born to mothers who smoked and/or drank while they were pregnant.
           
            They took aspirin, ate blue cheese dressing, tuna from a can and didn't get tested for diabetes.
           
            Then after that trauma, we were put to sleep on our tummies in baby cribs covered with bright colored lead-base paints.
           
           
            We had no childproof lids on medicine bottles, locks on doors or cabinets and when we rode our bikes, we had baseball caps not helmets on our heads.
           
           
            As infants & children, we would ride in cars with no car seats, booster seats, seat belts or air bags.
           
           
            Riding in the back of a pick up truck on a warm day was always a special treat.
           
            We drank water from the garden hose and not from a bottle.
           
           
            We shared one soft drink with four friends, from one bottle and no one actually died from this.
           
           
            We ate cupcakes, white bread, real butter and bacon. We drank Kool-aid made with real white sugar. And, we weren't overweight. WHY?
           
            Because we were always outside, playing...that's why!
           
            We would leave home in the morning and play all day, as long as we were back when the streetlights came on.
           
            No one was able to reach us all day. And, we were O.K.
           
            We would spend hours building our go-carts out of scraps and then ride down the hill, only to find out we forgot the brakes. After running into the bushes a few times,we learned to solve the problem.
           
           
            We did not have Playstations, Nintendo's and X-boxes. There were no video games, no 150 channels on cable, no video movies or DVD's, no surround-sound or CD's, no cell phones, no personal computers, no Internet and no chat rooms.
            WE HAD FRIENDS and we went outside and found them!
           
            We fell out of trees, got cut, broke bones and teeth and there were no lawsuits from these accidents.
           
           
            We ate worms and mud pies made from dirt, and the worms did not live in us forever.
           
            We were given BB guns for our 10th birthdays, made up games with sticks and tennis balls and, although we were told it would happen, we did not put out very many eyes.
           
            We rode bikes or walked to a friend's house and knocked on the door or rang the bell, or just walked in and talked to them.
           
            Little League had tryouts and not everyone made the team. Those who didn't had to learn to deal with disappointment.
           
            Imagine that!!
           
            The idea of a parent bailing us out if we broke the law was unheard of. They actually sided with the law!
           
            These generations have produced some of the best risk-takers problem solvers and inventors problem solvers and inventors ever.
           
            The past 50 years have been an explosion of innovation and new ideas.
           
           
            We had freedom, failure, success and responsibility, and we learned how to deal with it all.
            If YOU are one of them? CONGRATULATIONS!
           
            You might want to share this with others who have had the luck to grow up as kids, before the lawyers and the government regulated so much of our lives for our ow n good.
           
            While you are at it, forward it to your kids so they will know how brave and lucky their parents were.
           
             Kind of makes you want to run through the house with scissors, doesn't it ?
           
            ~
           
            The quote of the month is by Jay Leno:
            'With hurricanes, tornados, fires out of control, mud slides, flooding, severe thunderstorms tearing up the country from one end to another, and with the threat of bird flu and terrorist attacks, are we sure this is a good time to take God out of the Pledge of Allegiance?'
           

            For those that prefer to think that God is not watching over us...go ahead and delete this.
            For the rest of us...pass this on.

What kind of friend is Obama?

A FALSE FRIEND CAN DO MORE DAMAGE THAN AN OPEN ENEMY.
Now Obama has found a new friendship (or is it) He has made the demand that negotiations over a future Palestinian state beginning with the statement that Israel will have to hand over all of the disputed territories acquired in a defensive war 44 years ago. Is the president again serving as chief negotiator for the Palestinians or is this just his Muslim traits finely coming out?
Obama made his unprecedented demands on Israel, suggesting that Israel has been reluctant to make peace. It's an interesting word choice. Far from the words that he used in his 2008 speech. You might say he is talking out both sides of his mouth! An supporter and friend (like yours truly) of the Israel could look at things a lot differently.
At the U.N., the General Assembly will vote in September on declaring the statehood of "Palestine." What then? Will Israel's efforts to disarm the Palestinians in Gaza be considered an act of war against a sovereign state?
And what of the Palestinians, with whom Israel would most probably be negotiating these "land swaps"? No person or no country cannot be expected, or given a demand to negotiate with" those "who do not recognize its right to exist." The Palestinian Authority and Hamas have just made a agreement, After the ceremony in Cairo, Mahmoud Abbas made known very clearly that Hamas had surrendered none of its extremism to get the deal: "It is not required of Hamas to recognize Israel. We will form a government that will not ask Hamas to recognize Israel. "Why has Obama chosen to make a public demand that Israel surrender its vital and necessary security, the barrier of land that safeguards them. That is rewarding Hamas and the Palestinians' constant and commitment to Israel's destruction. A false friend can do more damage than an open enemy. What kind of friend is Obama?
During the course of the Obama presidency he has claimed over and declare again to be a unwavering and committed friend to Israel. He certainly made that impression when he addressed the AIPAC conference in 2008.

"We know that we cannot relent, we cannot yield, and, as president, I will never compromise when it comes to Israel's security ... not when there are still voices that deny the Holocaust, not when there are terrorist groups and political leaders committed to Israel's destruction, not when there are maps across the Middle East that don't even acknowledge Israel's existence, and government-funded textbooks filled with hatred towards Jews, not when there are rockets raining down on Israel, and Israeli children have to take a deep breath and summon uncommon courage every time they board a bus or walk to school."

Obama went further. In the same speech, he stated that:

 "there is no room at the negotiating table for terrorist organizations." The president didn't touch on the matter of borders, but he did pledge that "Jerusalem will remain the capital of Israel, and it must remain undivided."

But since coming to office, Obama’s dealings and actions have been anything but friendly. He publicly demanded in 2009 that Israel stop all settlement building. By announcing American demands on Israel at the United Nations, (the sewer on the east end of New York), the seat of hostile, Israel-despising dictators and tyrants, the president betrayed his promise to stand by the only democracy in the Middle East and, also contributed to the impression of being a threat and danger toward Israel. Obama’s concept of friendship toward Israel was big enough to permit him to insult the nation's prime minister during a Washington just because Netanyahu had not agreed to stop building apartments for Jews in Jerusalem, and he instructed Hillary Clinton (secretary of state) to engage in a dressing down of Netanyahu for the same thing.

Now Obama has found a new friendship (or is it a new friendship) He has made the demand that negotiations over a future Palestinian state beginning with the statement that Israel will have to hand over all of the disputed territories acquired in a defensive war 44 years ago. Is the president again serving as chief negotiator for the Palestinians or is this just his Muslim traits finely coming out? A person can not talk out of both sides of their month! How can we trust this man about other matters?

To Kill an American

Written by an Australian Dentist

 

You probably missed this in the rush of news, but there was actually a report that someone in Pakistan had published in a newspaper, an offer of a reward to anyone who killed an American, any American.

So an Australian dentist wrote an editorial the following day to let everyone know what an American is. So they would know when they found one. (Good one, mate!!!!)

'An American is English, or French, or Italian, Irish, German, Spanish, Polish, Russian or Greek. An American may also be Canadian, Mexican, African, Indian, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Australian, Iranian, Asian, Arab, Pakistani or Afghan.

An American may also be a Comanche, Cherokee, Osage, Blackfoot, Navaho, Apache, Seminole or one of the many other tribes known as native Americans..

An American is Christian, or he could be Jewish, or Buddhist, or Muslim. In fact, there are more Muslims in America than in Afghanistan . The only difference is that in America they are free to worship as each of them chooses.

An American is also free to believe in no religion.. For that he will answer only to God, not to the government, or to armed thugs claiming to speak for the government and for God.

An American lives in the most prosperous

land in the history of the world..

The root of that prosperity can be found in the Declaration of Independence, which recognizes the God-given right of each person

to the pursuit of happiness.

An American is generous.. Americans have helped out just about every other nation in the world in their time of need, never asking a thing in return.

When Afghanistan was over-run by the Soviet army 20 years ago, Americans came with arms and supplies to enable the people to win back their country!

As of the morning of September 11, Americans had given more than any other nation to the poor in Afghanistan ..

The national symbol of America , The Statue of Liberty , welcomes your tired and your poor, the wretched refuse of your teeming shores, the homeless, tempest tossed. These in fact are the people who built America

Some of them were working in the Twin Towers the morning of September 11, 2001, earning a better life for their families. It's been told that the World Trade Center victims were from at least 30 different countries, cultures, and first languages, including those that aided and abetted the terrorists.

So you can try to kill an American if you must. Hitler did. So did General Tojo, and Stalin, and Mao Tse-Tung, and other blood-thirsty tyrants in the world.. But, in doing so, you would just be killing yourself. Because Americans are not a particular people from a particular place. They are the embodiment of the human spirit of freedom. Everyone who holds to that spirit, everywhere, is an American.

Montana Bear Tragedy

This is a very sad story about a bear.. Everybody should heed the warnings not to feed wildlife because they become dependent and don't forage for themselves any longer. It is such a tragedy to see what has been done to our country's wildlife! The photo below captures a disturbing trend that is beginning to affect U.S. wildlife.
Animals that formerly were self-sufficient are now showing Signs of belonging to the Democratic Party. They have apparently learned to just sit and wait for the government to step in and provide for
their care and sustenance. This photo is of a black bear in Montana turned Democrat. He's nicknamed Bearack Acorn Obearma. It is believed that he has become a campground organizer.

A Coil of Rage - Obama:

After reading some of the things below I will never understand how a man who says such things, as you will read  below, can ever be elected as our president. I have never had a hated against any race and for Obama to make the statements that he did below are outrageous and scary! The character of any man (including Obama) is defined, by most people,  by the way or  how he treats his mother as the years pass. I will not need to say more about this person below other than there is no character, no integrity but there is a ton of attitude and arrogance that defines his shallow past and hollow future.  How this man was ever elected I will never know! As the presidential election is coming soon we need to consider all the facts about this man, not only what he has done since his was president. I will rest my case with the factual information below! You need to read this!

I bought and read "AUDACITY OF HOPE".  It was for me, as a Christian, too difficult to read considering his attitude, in the book, towards white people and everything American.  Let me add a phrase he used to describe his attitude towards whites.  He harbors a "Coil of Rage".   His words, not mine. THIS IS OUR PRESIDENT  -  Is anyone out there awake?  It is time for the American people to wake up and smell the coffee before this man destroys America and all our values! Everyone of voting age should read these two books; you can get them from the library.

From 'DREAMS OF MY FATHER':  "I ceased to advertise my mother's race at the age of 12 or 13, when I began to suspect that, by doing so, I was ingratiating myself to whites".

From "DREAMS OF MY FATHER': "I found a solace in nursing a pervasive sense of grievance and animosity against my mother's race".

From 'DREAMS OF MY FATHER': "There was something about her that made me wary, a little too sure of herself, maybe and white".

From 'DREAMS OF MY FATHER": "It remained necessary to prove which side you were on, to show your loyalty to the black masses, to strike out and name names.

From 'DREAMS OF MY FATHER': "I never emulate white men and brown men whose fates didn't speak to my own.  It was into my father's image, the black man, son of Africa, that I'd packed all the attributes I sought in myself, the attributes of Martin and Malcolm, Dubois and Mandela.

and FINALLY,  and most the most scary ... The one that should cause all to stand up and take notice:

From 'AUDACITY OF HOPE':  "I will stand with the Muslims should the political winds shift in an ugly direction". 

For the leader of our country to make these statements is shocking and unbelievable! This is the leader of our country! This is the reason why so many black Americans voted for him. He is a deceiver and when push comes to shove he will go with the Muslims, not the black people of this country. He is a user and he is not truly a black American, but a Muslim in disguise. My many black friends will all tell you the same thing. 

Speechless!

 

Many Americans,including me, was shocked when Obama went to the middle east and said in a speech that Americans were a arrogant people. This he said after being elected president of the most powerful country in the world but we should have not been shocked at the statement because Yes indeed, he told us in advance where he was coming from and what he planned to do.  Few were listening then and few are listening now! We have a man in office that hates America and is dismantling it right before our eyes!  Read very carefully this well documented article and then you decide is this the man we want to be our leader?

The following is a narrative taken from a 2008 Sunday morning televised "Meet The Press'.

From Sunday's 07 Sept. 2008  11:48:04 EST,  Televised "Meet the Press" THE THEN Senator Obama was asked about his stance on the American Flag.

General Bill Ginn' USAF (ret.) asked Obama to explain WHY he doesn't follow protocol when the National Anthem is played.

The General stated to Obama that according to the United States Code, Title 36, Chapter 10, Sec. 171...

During rendition of the national anthem, when the flag is displayed, all present (except those in uniform) are expected to stand at attention facing the flag with the right hand over the heart. Or, at the very least, "Stand and Face It".

NOW GET THIS !!

'Senator' Obama replied:

"As I've said about the flag pin, I don't want to be perceived as taking sides". "There are a lot of people in the world to whom the American

flag is a symbol of oppression.." "The anthem itself conveys a war-like message. You know, the bombs bursting in air and all that sort of thing."

(THIS EXPLAINS HIS ABSENCE FROM THE BIG GAME)

(ARE YOU READY FOR THIS???)

Obama continued: "The National Anthem should be 'swapped' for something less parochial and less bellicose. I like the song 'I'd Like To Teach the World To Sing'.  If that were our anthem, then, I might salute it.  In my opinion, we should consider reinventing our National Anthem as well as 'redesign' our Flag to better offer our enemies hope and love.  It's my intention, if elected, to disarm America    to the level of acceptance to our Middle East Brethren.  If we, as a Nation of warring people, conduct ourselves like the nations of Islam, where peace prevails - - - perhaps a state or period of mutual accord could exist between our governments ..."

When I become President, I will seek a pact of agreement to end hostilities between those who have been at war or in a state of enmity, and a freedom from disquieting oppressive thoughts. We as a Nation, have placed upon the nations of Islam, an unfair injustice which is WHY my wife disrespects the Flag and she and I have attended several flag burning ceremonies in the past".

"Of course now, I have found myself about to become the President of the United States and I have put my hatred aside . I will use my power to bring CHANGE to this Nation, and offer the people a new path..My wife and I look forward to becoming our Country's First black Family.  Indeed, CHANGE is about to overwhelm the United States of America "

Yes, you read it right. Wake up America! This is who is leading our country!

AMERICA: The truth is what matters!

It comes a time that we as Americans must come to terms with the actions of our government leaders and the direction this country. The direction of our country is a complete reversal of the way our founding fathers designed it to be and most of our leaders are so clueless to what is happening or they do not care because their pockets are being lined with money.

I find it hard to believe that more people are not outraged by the way the state and federal governments are handling our money.  What I mean is this, how many more taxes and increases can the American people afford?

We are at a very critical time, in our country, when just about every American family is struggling to make ends meet. Now our amazing government, federal and state, is working over time (it seems) to come up with more ways to more burden the already overtaxed people in this country. The property taxes are outrageous.  At a time when property values are decreasing, property taxes are increasing. Does that make sense? Some states have sales taxes that has already been increased, now they want to put even more tax on gasoline that the people can not afford already, due to the already high prices. When is enough ever going to be enough?

When will The people of this country finally get enough of this, outright, robbery, when will the citizens of this country stand up for ourselves and put a stop to this? Who does the government works for? The sad thing is they think that it's you and me who work for them!  We have the right to tell the elected government what a terrible job they are doing. There are many, many people who have taken pay cuts and lost their jobs, but how many elected government officials in Washington have voted to reduce any of their pay or benefits. It seems like Obama goes on vacation at least once a month and always at our expense. He might want you to think it is government business, but is it?

In a time of no jobs, a struggling economy, outrageous food prices, gas prices threw the roof, the state and federal governments, including Obama, are still wanting to raise taxes. How much more can we stand? We are struggling, as a country, for survivable, and we are still letting people across our boarders ever day (illegally) and then giving them everything, money, food stamps, housing, social security benefits, and financial assistance to go to college .  We are given them the things that some Americans have sought for years.  People can come from other countries and our government will set them right up in a business. Would they do that for you? The answer is “NO”!  Most all  the 7-11 stores, Quick Shops, Dunkin Donuts, mom & pop stores, and you name it are being finances by our tax dollars for people coming to this country and the most of them do do believe in our system of government, or our beliefs, or our way of life. We need to wake up!

We were told by the president of this country that some parts of the constitution of this country need to be re- written, Some of the Bible is not for today, and will not call terrorist what they really are: “TERRORIST”.  This country is killing unborn babies by the millions, our kids are being taught in school that when two people of the same sex get married it is just a different life style, we are told we are no longer a Christian nation, and the president is telling the Islamic nations, of the world, that we are the biggest Islamic nation in the world. We have a president who will not allow a nation day of prayer, but will allow Muslims to pray on the lawn of the White House and yet he says he is a Christian!

We do not have to worry about being defeated as a nation from without, because we will be defeated from within if we, as Americans,  do not take a stand and say enough is enough! What would our fore fathers say? We are going in the opposite direction that our forefathers wanted. I will leave you with this question: Are you just as free as you were 10 years ago or even 5 years ago? There must be a turning around in this country and yes that also means turning back to our Creator. We can not do it on our own!

Thanks Shifty!

Shifty volunteered for the airborne in WWII and served with Easy

Company of the 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment, part of the 101st

Airborne Infantry.  If you've seen Band of Brothers on HBO or the

History Channel, you know Shifty.  His character appears in all 10

episodes, and Shifty himself is interviewed in several of them. 

I met Shifty in the  Philadelphia airport several years ago. I didn't

know who he was at the time.  I just saw an elderly gentleman having

trouble reading his ticket. I offered to help, assured him that he was

at the right gate, and noticed the "Screaming Eagle," the symbol of

the 101st Airborne, on his hat. 

Making conversation, I asked him if he'd been in the 101st Airborne

or if his son was serving.  He said that he had been in the

101st.  I thanked him for his service, then asked him when he served,

and how many jumps he made. 

Quietly he said: "Well, I guess I signed up in 1941 or so,

and was in until sometime in 1945 ..."

At that point, again, very humbly, he said "I made the 5 training

jumps at Toccoa, and then jumped into  Normandy . . .  do you know

where Normandy is?"

I told him "yes, I know exactly where  Normandy is, and I know what

D-Day was."  At that point he said "I also made a second jump into

Holland , into Arnhem ."  I was standing with a genuine war hero ... 

and then I realized that it was June,  just after the anniversary of

D-Day. 

I asked Shifty if he was on his way back from  France, and he said

"Yes...  And it 's real sad because, these days, so few of the guys are

left, and those that are, lots of them can't make the trip."

I helped Shifty get onto the plane and then realized he was back in

coach while I was in First Class.  I sent the flight attendant back to

get him and said that I wanted to switch seats.  When Shifty came

forward, I got up out of the seat and told him I wanted him to have

it, that I'd take his in coach.

He said "No, son, you enjoy that seat.  Just knowing that there are

still some who remember what we did and who still care is enough to

make an old man very happy."  His eyes were filling up as he said it.

Shifty died on Jan. l7 after fighting cancer.

There was no parade.

No big event in Staples Center .

No wall-to-wall, back-to-back 24x7 news coverage.

No weeping fans on television.

And that's not right!

Let's give Shifty his own memorial service, online, in our own quiet way.

Please forward this email to everyone you know.  Especially to the veterans. 

Rest in peace, Shifty. 

Chuck Yeager, Maj. General [ret.]

P.S.  I think that it is amazing how the "media" chooses our "heroes" these days...

Michael Jackson & the like!

"SHIFTY" - an incredible American hero

SHIFTY DIED JAN 17, 2011..........May God rest his soul.

Please do me a favor and pass this on so that untold thousands can

read it. We owe no less to our REAL heroes....

Our “LATE” Great Constitution!

Recently a federal judge ruled the new health care law was not constitutional. Now we know that both the Senate and the House of Representatives passed the bill. So what does that tell you about them? It plainly tells me that none of them have ever read or more important studied The Constitution of the United States. Last week a top official for the Democrat Party picked up where our Vic president left off when he made this comment: "We have three branches of government, the Senate, The House, and the President."  That just goes to show you who is in charge of making our laws and someone who really knows about our government. Then we have state senators who run away and hide in another state when they can not have their way. These are the people who keep getting re-elected and voted back into office. They have no respect for their office or the rule of law, unless it can be turned into their favor. What a disgrace to the American people and our beloved Constitution. The American people wanted change and when they did not get the change they wanted two years ago they made a change this past November, but the liberal congress and Obama (sorry can not call him my president) did not listen to the people. It is either their way or the highway1
It is a sad state of affairs when we have a president and elected officials that conduct business  late of a night or behind closed doors, or a president who waits for congress to go home for the holidays to sign a new bill into law by executive privilege. or how the state (Democrat) senators from Wisconsin have conducted them selves. We really do not have much in the White House or the halls of congress. It is a sad day when we have a president that we, the American people, do not know where he was even born. It hurts me to see the way he is tearing down and dismantling our country, piece by piece, because this was the change he was talking about. This nation is a republic, not a democracy. We as a nation are to follow the rule of law, but our leader does not see that.
All I have heard for the past thirty years, and it may be longer, is separation of the church and the state. If you read the constitution you will see that mention one time the separation of church and state. What it does say is this: "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibit the free exercise there of."  all Americans must know our countries constitution, because if we do not all of our rights will, sooner or later, be taken from us by groups such as the ACLU, Code Pink, and sad to say the school boards. We are slowly losing our freedoms, here a little and there a little.
Just to give you an example I have said this many times and it needs to be repeated: "just look what has happen since "The Great Society" has taken Bible reading and prayer out of the schools back in the 60s, we now have police officers walking the halls because of the crime, disrespect for school authority, guns and knives, a drop out rate that has not come down but went up! It is at an all time high!
Lets look at this in real time. It is time for America to turn back to God instead of turning their back on God!

THE NEW BUDGET: What a disgrace!

Since I have retired (not all the way because nobody can do that anymore) I can do more research and study not only in God's Word but also about issues that plague us today. Here is the latest thing that I looked into and your comments are welcome. I can't decide if Obama in his 2012 budget request is either ignorant, or just plain stupid when it comes to the huge depth of this country's fiscal crisis or else  wonder if he really just doesn't care. I'm begininng to think that he just does not care and that he has his own agenda. He submitted his request to Congress for $3.73 trillion for the FY 2012. Obama has proposed to cut $1.1 trillion over a decade, which amounts to about 2.9 percent of projected spending. Where is this guy coming from? Doe he not get it we are broke now!

What really bothers me is that, as president, he is surely has to be aware that the deficit today is largely being funded by foreigners and by the Federal Reserve's printing press. Printing more paper money all the time and it will soon be worthless. At some point in the not too distant future, both of those spigots of cash will rapidly become just a trickle as inflation forces the Feds to stop buying Treasury bonds, and foreigners recognize the inevitability of American default and cease lending (or demand a massive interest premium, which we can't afford to pay either). Obama is our leader and he still does not get it or does he seem to care.

This country is running a real risk of default on the national debt, which is of course only a fraction of the unfunded liabilities we owe to Medicaid, Social Security and, most especially, Medicare; those entitlements are estimated to be between $60- and $100-trillion short. Check it out for yourself. Do the homework like I did. This country is broke.

 Obama's budget request does little to address our impending bankruptcy. Like I said earlier he just does not care and I think, with all my heart, that is what he wants! He wants this country to go broke, so he can bring in his socialist government. That makes him either sneaky, ignorant or indifferent to the day of reckoning that is right around our corner. I think that all of the above apply here.  Which is worse, I'm not sure. Regardless, his actions are too little and might even be too late. Is this the change that he promised us? I want to know!
