"Go For It"

OK I know I said I would forget about politics but I am offended by a president who continues to campaign instead of lead. How long before he realizes he is not cheerleading a basketball game. When he says "go for it", who is using inflammatory rhetoric? Who is he challenging and why?

On the bright side I finally found something I could agree with Mr. and Mrs. Obama about. I am ashamed of our country, especially the way things are being done today. I am disgusted with politicians who openly admit they don’t give a damn about the US Constitution and raise the politics of corruption to a new high.

I am ashamed of an executive and legislative branches who say that if things don’t go their way they will just bypass the constitution and do whatever it takes to accomplish their goals, even against the expressed desires of the majority of the American people. I am ashamed of a president who apologizes for Americans and chums around with Chavez and other Socialist dictators while insulting our old allies. There is an abundance of regulations, mandates, and oversights in this power grabbing administration, but what really bugs me is their arrogance, contempt, and outright deception. I am insulted by a president who looks on the average American as an opponent and ridicules them saying.

"After I signed the bill, I looked around to see if there were any asteroids falling, some cracks opening up in the earth," Obama said, adding it turned out to be a nice day and "birds were chirping, folks were strolling down the mall."

When this nation was founded the new Americans revelled in their new found freedom and wanted to do whatever it took to make them and their new nation stronger. Their descendants enjoyed the fruits of this hard-earned liberty and asked, “What can we do to make ourselves and our country better?” Then came a generation of self-centered spoiled brats that asked, “What can I do to make myself happier?” And now we have degenerated to a Socialist society who asks Mr. Big Government, “What can you do to make me feel safer? And Mr. Big Government looks around and asks how can I make us more like socialist europe?
