500,000 Plastic CoffinsPosted on February 25, 2010. Obama Report Card - the first 100 days - Calculated Chaos Choreography Everyone deserves a chance to know their grades so here's the chance of Obama to see how Colton Point Times ranks its first 100 days as president. There are two elements to the class, the President's personal actions and political actions of the President. True performance in these two areas is a reflection of what kind of leader he will become. In terms of international relations of the year is very good like most nations of the world are now more interested in photo ops with our chairman of trashing the U.S.. However, we have received nothing tangible other nations regarding the things that he asked them to do. Korea once the missile, Iran is building nuclear weapons, the rule of the terrorists in Afghanistan and Pakistan, the flow of drugs through Mexico, there is little coordination among nations in stimulating the economy and thus immediately but at least they are now smiling when they stick to us. Back here in the U.S. rank is more mixed. There is little doubt, he controls the Congress and to take advantage of what Congress flood of requests for legislation, appropriations and new programs. In fact, the volume of requests for the Administration has clearly exceeded the capacity of Congress to absorb if we have Pelosi and Reid Rubber Stamp which means that if the president wants something and it is fairly liberal, it is rubber stamped . The House and Senate Democratic leaders and even President seem to think all those people who voted against Bush wanted socialism Now when they wanted change, but I do not think so and when people realize how much we have left derivative they will be shocked. They also seem to forget that 47% of people voted against Obama and another 45-50% of the population the right to vote did not register or vote. This means that in truth Obama got about 25-27% of eligible votes, hardly a popular mandate. Campaign Expenses After promising to limit the cost of the campaign by public funds, Obama has changed his mind and began to spend the largest amount in history, 775 million. Add in another $ 160 million on his inauguration and 18 million to spend after the election and he is the president first billion dollars in history. So much for limiting campaign spending. With a taste that no wonder more than three billion dollars was allocated by the government for redemptions and bribes, payoffs and benefits, which was endorsed by Obama. It seems that the same problem existed in his selection of talent when he promised new people to replace the old gang of insiders in Washington. It is surrounded by Clinton and other Democratic hacks with a legion of former Goldman Sachs and other lobbyists who have turned their attention from Wall Street and demolition of the economy to suck every last cent of Federal Government and the Federal Reserve. In the process, it was also the first President to nominate seven tax cheats to the highest office in the nation. Latin American Relations Obama seems to have impressed the leaders of Latin as he does the Europeans and Asians and I'm not too worried about him comfortable with his brother Fidel in Cuba and Hugo Chavez in Venezuela, although they are currently play. We need to do much work with Latin and Canada, as a form a sort of American Union, so we can fix the mess we are in. Maybe Obama can help? Relations in the Middle East Despite our presence in Iraq and the Middle East, our troops are stationed there, and our massive foreign aid spending for the two parts of Palestine from Israel and the groups we have little impact on anything happening there. The Middle East is a country rich in oil, oil that you can temporarily replace the drilling offshore and in Alaska and in the sharing of resources. CommentsThere are no comments.Leave a Comment |
