Well – here I sit listening to the crap that Obama is spewing tonight. Hs speech is so disingenuous it’s not even funny. Sure, in one breath he says the recovery of this economy requires action and not to look back at other administrations, then in the other breath he blames only Republican administration era policies for the problems. When he was talking about how we got to this mess – he talked about energy independence – but – never once brought up drilling for oil – he’s implying green energy only…nor did he bring up the failed Clinton policy allowing (forcing) banks to give loans to people without first verifying income, identity, employment, or the ability to pay. When he’s talking about helping responsible homeowners – he’s talking about allowing those who are upside down on their mortgage refinance on my dime even if they’re not struggling to pay their bills. How the hell is that even fiscally responsible?
In the meantime – I received an e-mail from one of my commentors – Robert Foster – with a link to a youtube video that he created. It is titled An American Fairytale – A Tale of Warning – And of Hope. It is his illustration of a narration by Glenn Beck of a story written by a Dr. John Rossi. When I first heard this narration back in November on the radio it really struck a nerve with me. It touched me and it has been with me for a while. I am so glad that Robert found this blog and shared that video with me. It is now my turn to share it with all of you. If you like it – please either link back here to it – or – steal it for yourselves and post it up.
Watching this while listening to the Obamessiah really sends this message home. I would also greatly appreciate it if everyone would “buzz it”, stumble & digg it (through my “share this” link), and vote on it using the “vote” button on the bottom right so that we can get this thing out there to everyone. Enjoy!

I watched Obama’s address to congress and I spent most of the time shaking my head in disbelief. A laundry list of welfare programs when we have a massive national deficit and a recession. Strangely, I noticed that Joseph Stiglitz (on CNN) commenting that he wasn’t sure that the “stimulus” package would work as the Obama administration might want; this was a surprise since Stiglitz is such a lefty economist.
Anyway I’ve stumbled, dugg, and buzzed.

Democrats = Welfare. That’s their voter base. Those folks with their hand out. Makes me sick.
Loved the video very much. Awesome.
Have a terrific day.

You have a stronger stomach than I do… I leave the news on constantly and he’s been on TV so frequently, what seems like every day all day, that I was loathe to turn him on on PURPOSE.
And, from what I am hearing … I’m not surprised by a thing he said. Same-old-socialist ____.
