President Obama, sometimes doing nothing is better than doing too much!
First and foremost Politicians desire power and want to hold on to power!
Second they are concerned with their legacy.
What kind of politician would bungle up his legacy and his ability to hold on to power? After avoiding the news and my blog for a week now I have come back and to my surprise I find that Obama has continued to destroy his legacy and his assurance of perpetual power. President Obama here is some advice, “Believe me sometimes doing nothing is better than doing too much!”
Why would a guy who wants to gain and keep power and build a legacy as the first African-American President with the “mandate” to create peace, cooperation, bipartisanship, and good will for all give in to his own self-aggrandizement and supreme ego only to botch his amazing moment in history? Of course as usual if I just keep writing I will answer my own question. Obama can’t help himself. If an 800 Billion Dollar bailout gets attention then why not a 9.3 trillion dollar deficit; why not suggest taxing our health insurance; why not threaten AIG execs and others; why not go on Leno and dis Special Olympians. Why not swagger your way across America’s Boob Tube like a ghost of Sammy Davis Jr. on your way to a Rat Pack meeting on the Strip. All that is missing is the drink and the ever present cigarette, although they are probably both waiting impatiently back stage.
After all Americans have fed Obama’s ego for the last two years why shouldn’t he make “Shoot From the Hip” policies?
Obama has “I can do no wrong” star syndrome. He has bought into and believes the hype that the press (Obama’s press may yet rep it’s rewards) and the public have bestowed upon him. He has drank his own Kool Aid. Obama at this pace is headed for creating a memorable legacy, but not one that will make his grandchildren proud. Why not shoot from the hip? Because he truly believes that he cannot miss.
Oh Boy, Obama’s on the Tube; I can’t wait!
POTUS and TOTUS meet the press: Defensive about AIG, blame-card on debt, blows off charities
President Obama will hold a news conference tonight in a few minutes, starting at 8pm Eastern. TOTUS is fired up and ready to go, too — but after a few opening remarks, POTUS will fly without a net.
The White House sent out a preview:
Open thread: You know what America needs? More Barack Obama on television
posted at 7:31 pm on March 24, 2009 by Allahpundit
8 p.m. ET across the dial, or try C-SPAN.org if you’re sans TV. Serious question: Why did The One call this presser? Half of it will be esoterica about Geithner’s rescue plan, the other half will be perfunctory outrageous outrage about the AIG bonuses. We can do without more of either. If you’re watching and anxious for annotation entertainment (anno-tainment?), though, there’s an embarrassment of liveblogging riches to choose from. The boss will have something going, as will Ace — with special guest star Iowahawk filling in for Obama’s teleprompter. And in what I think is a first, Greg Gutfeld will be spending his night off sharing his thoughts with Daily Gut readers. Don’t mention Canada in the comments!
‘it’ surpassed ‘too much’ about 2 years ago.

I pretty much disagree with everything you say.
Sometimes, you into the military conservative, and come out liberal, education has a way of doing that.

Thanks for you comment Toni,
You have a good point. In fact we might even want to go back to Reagan….then again before Kennedy and then Johnson’s “Great Society” the feds were somewhat under control. Of course social security has never been a good deal.
I guess we would have to go back to before the Income Tax was forced upon Americans by the 16th amendment.
But for now the President we have is making big leaps in over spending, over promising, over taxing, and over powering his will on the people.
Thanks again
and God Bless,

Hello Joe,
Thanks for commenting and disagreeing.
But, I am a little unclear about your “Liberal Education” comment.

Obama is a DISASTER everyday, and the next day its even worse. He is like the JOKER in BATMAN

Riggword,
President Obama never promised that we would see over-night results. In fact, he has consistently stated that it would take time — years, perhaps — to get the economy back on its feet.
I wonder, though, if President Obama’s policies prove, to be good over time, and the economy starts to flourish again as a result, will you retract all your insults and nay-saying?

Obama is the anti-Christ

Wait and see,
Socialism has already been proven over time to
NOT WORK!
You are correct about one thing. We already know that it does take years for communism to incrementally take over capitalism. The only way that will happen is for the centralized government to gain more power and take away our freedoms. Obama is on track for both.
tbemadjewess,
I love your energy and tenacity. But, the anti-Christ thing is a bit over used isn’t it. Using that phrase weakens our resolve to educate the 43% of Americans who are duped by “Feel Good-Share the Wealth” Obamanism.
Thank you all for your comments,

Well, A lot of people agree with me rigg. They REALLY think he is an anti-Christ.
Its tough when he’s fulfilling scriptures of the evil that has come.
