First, here’s the article I disagree with [link]:
Mark McKinnon’s article praising BH Obama for his Mosque stand [link]:

My response to McKinnon’s article:
Mark, you're nuts!
I've said this before and I'll say it again... get a billionaire to offer to build the most magnificent mosque in the world in a Manhattan location a thousand times more exquisite than the choice they've already picked, which is on the dead bodies of innocent Americans - and have the billionaire offer to pay for everything and assure the Muslims that the project will be done more quickly than they can do it themselves with a result that will be both award winning and the envy of the world... and they will flat out tell you "NO!" - why? Because this is NOT about the rights of Muslims in America to build a mosque or anything else, it is not about Muslims having equal rights as everyone else - it is not about prejudice against Muslims - it is about a blatant deliberate slap in the faces of every American and especially the heroes and victims of 9/11... they do not want a new mosque. They want a new mosque on the dead bodies of the American innocents they killed so they can laugh in the faces of the insanely-politically-correct, as well as all Americans! How blind are the insanely-politically-correct radical leftists in this country? How can anyone not see that. What is wrong with you ?!
And you praise the president as he begins his waffling...
This is just another example of the worst president in the history of the presidency!

President Obama: In decline? (Photo: AFP)
The last few weeks have been a nightmare for President Obama, in a summer of discontent in the United States which has deeply unsettled the ruling liberal elites, so much so that even the Left has begun to turn against the White House. While the anti-establishment Tea Party movement has gained significant ground and is now a rising and powerful political force to be reckoned with, many of the president’s own supporters as well as independents are rapidly losing faith in Barack Obama, with open warfare breaking out between the White House and the left-wing of the Democratic Party. While conservatism in America grows stronger by the day, the forces of liberalism are growing increasingly weaker and divided.
Against this backdrop, the president’s approval ratings have been sliding dramatically all summer, with the latest Rasmussen Daily Presidential Tracking Poll of US voters dropping to minus 22 points, the lowest point so far for Barack Obama since taking office. While just 24 per cent of American voters strongly approve of the president’s job performance, almost twice that number, 46 per cent, strongly disapprove. According to Rasmussen, 65 per cent of voters believe the United States is going down the wrong track, including 70 per cent of independents.
The RealClearPolitics average of polls now has President Obama at over 50 per cent disapproval, a remarkably high figure for a president just 18 months into his first term. Strikingly, the latest USA Today/Gallup survey has the President on just 41 per cent approval, with 53 per cent disapproving.
Related link: The Obama presidency increasingly resembles a modern-day Ancien Régime
There are an array of reasons behind the stunning decline and political fall of President Obama, chief among them fears over the current state of the US economy, with widespread concern over high levels of unemployment, the unstable housing market, and above all the towering budget deficit. Americans are increasingly rejecting President Obama’s big government solutions to America’s economic woes, which many fear will lead to the United States sharing the same fate as Greece.
Growing disillusionment with the Obama administration’s handling of the economy as well as health care and immigration has gone hand in hand with mounting unhappiness with the President’s aloof and imperial style of leadership, and a growing perception that he is out of touch with ordinary Americans, especially at a time of significant economic pain. Barack Obama’s striking absence of natural leadership ability (and blatant lack of experience) has played a big part in undermining his credibility with the US public, with his lacklustre handling of the Gulf oil spill coming under particularly intense fire.
On the national security and foreign policy front, President Obama has not fared any better. His leadership on the war in Afghanistan has been confused and at times lacking in conviction, and seemingly dictated by domestic political priorities rather than military and strategic goals. His overall foreign policy has been an appalling mess, with his flawed strategy of engagement of hostile regimes spectacularly backfiring. And as for the War on Terror, his administration has not even acknowledged it is fighting one.
Can it get any worse for President Obama? Undoubtedly yes. Here are 10 key reasons why the Obama presidency is in serious trouble, and why its prospects are unlikely to improve between now and the November mid-terms.
1. The Obama presidency is out of touch with the American people
In a previous post I noted how the Obama presidency increasingly resembles a modern-day Ancien Régime, extravagant, decaying and out of touch with ordinary Americans. The First Lady’s ill-conceived trip to Spain at a time of widespread economic hardship was symbolic of a White House that barely gives a second thought to public opinion on many issues, and frequently projects a distinctly elitist image. The “let them eat cake” approach didn’t play well over two centuries ago, and it won’t succeed today.
2. Most Americans don’t have confidence in the president’s leadership
This deficit of trust in Obama’s leadership is central to his decline. According to a recent Washington Post/ABC News poll, “nearly six in ten voters say they lack faith in the president to make the right decisions for the country”, and two thirds “say they are disillusioned with or angry about the way the federal government is working.” The poll showed that a staggering 58 per cent of Americans say they do not have confidence in the president’s decision-making, with just 42 per cent saying they do.
3. Obama fails to inspire
In contrast to the soaring rhetoric of his 2004 Convention speech in Boston which succeeded in impressing millions of television viewers at the time, America is no longer inspired by Barack Obama’s flat, monotonous and often dull presidential speeches and statements delivered via teleprompter. From his extraordinarily uninspiring Afghanistan speech at West Point to his flat State of the Union address, President Obama has failed to touch the heart of America. Even Jimmy Carter was more moving.
4. The United States is drowning in debt
The Congressional Budget Office Long-Term Budget Outlook offers a frightening picture of the scale of America’s national debt. Under its alternative fiscal scenario, the CBO projects that US debt could rise to 87 percent of GDP by 2020, 109 percent by 2025, and 185 percent in 2035. While much of Europe, led by Britain and Germany, are aggressively cutting their deficits, the Obama administration is actively growing America’s debt, and has no plan in place to avert a looming Greek-style financial crisis.
5. Obama’s Big Government message is falling flat
The relentless emphasis on bailouts and stimulus spending has done little to spur economic growth or create jobs, but has greatly advanced the power of the federal government in America. This is not an approach that is proving popular with the American public, and even most European governments have long ditched this tax and spend approach to saving their own economies.
6. Obama’s support for socialised health care is a huge political mistake
In an extraordinary act of political Harakiri, President Obama leant his full support to the hugely controversial, unpopular and divisive health care reform bill, with a monstrous price tag of $940 billion, whose repeal is now supported by 55 per cent of likely US voters. As I wrote at the time of its passing, the legislation is “a great leap forward by the United States towards a European-style vision of universal health care, which will only lead to soaring costs, higher taxes, and a surge in red tape for small businesses. This reckless legislation dramatically expands the power of the state over the lives of individuals, and could not be further from the vision of America’s founding fathers.”
7. Obama’s handling of the Gulf oil spill has been weak-kneed and indecisive
While much of the spilled oil in the Gulf has now been thankfully cleared up, the political damage for the White House will be long-lasting. Instead of showing real leadership on the matter by acing decisively and drawing upon offers of international support, the Obama administration settled on a more convenient strategy of relentlessly bashing an Anglo-American company while largely sitting on its hands. Significantly, a poll of Louisiana voters gave George W. Bush higher marks for his handling of the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, with 62 percent disapproving of Obama’s performance on the Gulf oil spill.
8. US foreign policy is an embarrassing mess under the Obama administration
It is hard to think of a single foreign policy success for the Obama administration, but there have been plenty of missteps which have weakened American global power as well as the standing of the United States. The surrender to Moscow on Third Site missile defence, the failure to aggressively stand up to Iran’s nuclear programme, the decision to side with ousted Marxists in Honduras, the slap in the face for Great Britain over the Falklands, have all contributed to the image of a US administration completely out of its depth in international affairs. The Obama administration’s high risk strategy of appeasing America’s enemies while kicking traditional US allies has only succeeded in weakening the United States while strengthening her adversaries.
9. President Obama is muddled and confused on national security
From the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq to the War on Terror, President Obama’s leadership has often been muddled and confused. On Afghanistan he rightly sent tens of thousands of additional troops to the battlefield. At the same time however he bizarrely announced a timetable for the withdrawal of US forces beginning in July 2011, handing the initiative to the Taliban. On Iraq he has announced an end to combat operations and the withdrawal of all but 50,000 troops despite a recent upsurge in terrorist violence and political instability, and without the Iraqi military and police ready to take over. In addition he has ditched the concept of a War on Terror, replacing it with an Overseas Contingency Operation, hardly the right message to send in the midst of a long-war against Al-Qaeda.
10. Obama doesn’t believe in American greatness
Barack Obama has made it clear that he doesn’t believe in American exceptionalism, and has made apologising for his country into an art form. In a speech to the United Nations last September he stated that “no one nation can or should try to dominate another nation. No world order that elevates one nation or group of people over another will succeed. No balance of power among nations will hold.” It is difficult to see how a US president who holds these views and does not even accept America’s greatness in history can actually lead the world’s only superpower with force and conviction.
There is a distinctly Titanic-like feel to the Obama presidency and it’s not hard to see why. The most left-wing president in modern American history has tried to force a highly interventionist, government-driven agenda that runs counter to the principles of free enterprise, individual freedom, and limited government that have made the United States the greatest power in the world, and the freest nation on earth.
This, combined with weak leadership both at home and abroad against the backdrop of tremendous economic uncertainty in an increasingly dangerous world, has contributed to a spectacular political collapse for a president once thought to be invincible. America at its core remains a deeply conservative nation, which cherishes its traditions and founding principles. President Obama is increasingly out of step with the American people, by advancing policies that undermine the United States as a global power, while undercutting America’s deep-seated love for freedom.

A lyrical prayer for Lindsay Lohan:
God Bless The Child (Lyrics)
Billie Holiday / Arthur Herzog Jr.
Them that's got shall get
Them that's not shall lose
So the Bible said and it still is news
Mama may have, Papa may have
But God bless the child that's got his own
That's got his own
Yes, the strong gets more
While the weak ones fade
Empty pockets don't ever make the grade
Mama may have, Papa may have
But God bless the child that's got his own
That's got his own
Money, you've got lots of friends
Crowding round the door
When you're gone, spending ends
They don't come no more
Rich relations give
Crust of bread and such
You can help yourself
But don't take too much
Mama may have, Papa may have
But God bless the child that's got his own
That's got his own
Mama may have, Papa may have
But God bless the child that's got his own
That's got his own
He just worry 'bout nothin'
Cause he's got his own

Remember the difference between a boss and a leader; a boss says "Go!" - a leader says "Let's go!" ~E.M. Kelly
Obama’s approval ratings are down for a number of reasons:
*Jobs*
Obama, his administration, and DC in general have done virtually nothing to make more jobs available to the average American worker. Where do 80% of jobs come from? – SMALL BUSINESS. Obama hates business, especially small business. Virtually everything DC has done in the past 18 months has made it much harder to be a small businessman and made it all but impossible to open a new small business. Small business is a precarious thing, and on any given year many businesses are born and many die. In the past 18 months many businesses have died, much more than a typical year – but very few have been born, because DC makes it very hard to open and run a new small business. They make it harder EVERY year. DC has also let the middle-American economy stagnate, which is death to small business. DC has been glad-handing and heaping help onto their cronies… while they literally laugh over Filet mignon about the plight of small middle-America business. The web-media phenomenon means middle Americans get to find out about this corruption via means other than the “bought and well greased major media”, whose significance, power, and prestige are plummeting, even though the power-elite are taking very good care of those in the media who are good obedient puppets.
*Real Estate*
Historically the one way middle-America could get a bit ahead was by owning real estate, at least one home and perhaps eventually investment real estate. That dream is dead. That avenue is blocked for the foreseeable future. We have all seen the videos and read the books and articles about the real estate scam being perpetrated by the power-elite. Insiders move from government regulation jobs, to private sector jobs and back and forth over the years building their network of insiders. When it is their turn to be on the government regulator side they “take care of” their cronies in the private sector – when it is their turn to be insiders in the private sector, their cronies who have recently flipped over to the government regulation side in turn, take care of them. This flip-flop between government insider and private sector insider continues throughout their career until they retire as members of the elite 5% wealthiest insiders. It is virtually impossible to get into this game without rock solid connections. It is even more impossible to get information out of this power-elite under any circumstances.
Check out what Obama has done for his cronies within this power-elite and know that just like the five most recent past presidents did – he will have a gold mine waiting for him when he returns to the private sector.
Generally past-presidents net worth goes up by 100% to 5000% within five years after they leave the presidency. That doesn’t happen by accident. Again, the web-media phenomenon means middle Americans are forced to find out about this corruption via means other than the “bought and well greased major media”.
*Broken promises*
We all remember the exciting promises of the Obama YES WE CAN campaign of change we can believe in. Let’s put an end to the partisan bickering down in DC, he proclaimed. DC is broken. We need to shake ‘em up down there. We need a new era. That’s what Obama said. We will provide a new way for the DC crowd to operate for the good of the American people.
What he failed to mention was how neck deep he was in the century-old big business of CHICAGO politics as usual. Chicago politics, as we have all come to know, makes DC look like a bunch of naïve boy scouts earning merit badges for good deeds to the country!
What Obama replaced same-ol’ same-ol’ DC politics with was the much more vitriolic poisons of classic Chicago politics. America is suffering the consequences. Middle-American is suffering the consequences. You and I are suffering the consequences. This new hyper-cronyism mentioned above under Real Estate is much deeper than just the type practiced in the universal insider real estate cronyism sector. Obama-cronyism is everywhere all the time. Be a good do-bee and get your share. Slip up and fall off the crony-wagon and disappear both literally and figuratively. Insiders prosper infinitely. Outsiders, no matter how strong they appear on the surface, cannot break into the insider back-room.
There is no breaking up this shadow world. They have it down to a specialized science that would boggle your mind if you were privy to how it works and how powerful it is. By way of clarification: Obama is only a “middle-manager” within this shadow corporation. He is just another marionette having his strings pulled by the Shadow Elite who we all have heard are running this country. It is not an exaggeration. In fact they are running a much larger expanse than just this country. They are in control of a very large portion of the world – at least that portion where the real power is hidden. Only tiny glimpses of this web can be seen by viewing the non-major media. This secret is much better guarded than the jobs and real estate games, because this is the core of their power. The Code of Silence here is much more well kept than the old 20’s Chicago Mob code of silence could ever hope to be.
So, these are the three major reasons for Obama’s crumbling legacy as well as his falling ratings with middle-America. *JOBS, REAL ESTATE, NO WE CAN’T.*
He doesn’t seem to care, does he? He doesn’t seem to care for a reason. He’s not beholding to middle-America. He is beholding to that shadow-elite I describe above. Once he has served his purpose for them, he will find himself up to his neck in gold. One term or two, his real goal will have been achieved. He marches to his own beat not because he is out of touch with the American voter. He marches to the beat assigned to him. He will keep marching. He will win the reward he set out to win. The presidency was just a step along the way.
Once Obama’s turn is over we will have a puppet from the right in the presidency, then a puppet from the left, then from the right, then the left, the right, etc. Just as it has been for at least the last 100 years. And we foolishly still think we have a say in the running of the country. No we don’t.
*Jobs*
Obama, his administration, and DC in general have done virtually nothing to make more jobs available to the average American worker. Where do 80% of jobs come from? – SMALL BUSINESS.

Middle-American is suffering the consequences. You and I are suffering the consequences. This new hyper-cronyism mentioned above under Real Estate is much deeper than just the type practiced in the universal insider real estate cronyism sector. Obama-cronyism is everywhere all the time. Be a good do-bee and get your share. Slip up and fall off the crony-wagon and disappear both literally and figuratively. Insiders prosper infinitely. Outsiders, no matter how strong they appear on the surface, cannot break into the insider back-room.
There is no breaking up this shadow world. They have it down to a specialized science that would boggle your mind if you were privy to how it works and how powerful it is. By way of clarification: Obama is only a “middle-manager” within this shadow corporation. He is just another marionette having his strings pulled by the Shadow Elite who we all have heard are running this country. It is not an exaggeration. In fact they are running a much larger expanse than just this country. They are in control of a very large portion of the world – at least that portion where the real power is hidden. Only tiny glimpses of this web can be seen by viewing the non-major media. This secret is much better guarded than the jobs and real estate games, because this is the core of their power. The Code of Silence here is much more well kept than the old 20’s Chicago Mob code of silence could ever hope to be.
So, these are the three major reasons for Obama’s crumbling legacy as well as his falling ratings with middle-America. *JOBS, REAL ESTATE, NO WE CAN’T.*
He doesn’t seem to care, does he? He doesn’t seem to care for a reason. He’s not beholding to middle-America. He is beholding to that shadow-elite I describe above. Once he has served his purpose for them, he will find himself up to his neck in gold. One term or two, his real goal will have been achieved. He marches to his own beat not because he is out of touch with the American voter. He marches to the beat assigned to him. He will keep marching. He will win the reward he set out to win. The presidency was just a step along the way.
Once Obama’s turn is over we will have a puppet from the right in the presidency, then a puppet from the left, then from the right, then the left, the right, etc. Just as it has been for at least the last 100 years. And we foolishly still think we have a say in the running of the country. No we don’t.

The proof of how broken prime time network TV is – is that the brain-trust (and I use the term ‘brain’ with trepidation) at NBC is still intact after the last two dozen ‘innovative’ ideas they tried, turned out to be disasters… disasters that any viewer, and I mean ANY viewer, could have told them would not work! They still have their jobs, people! Can you believe it?
The Only Plausible Answer
Science is always absolutely certain they have come up with “the only plausible answer”. Science is always changing their minds, and absolutely certain the NEW resulting answer is “the only plausible answer”. Note also they never say that the answer we had come up with last time was absolutely wrong. They conveniently get amnesia about the last prior answer while trumpeting the “fact” that their latest greatest newest theory is certainly true and is “the only plausible answer”.
Rest assured that science will trumpet many other “only plausible answers” on many other topics this year and every year. Answers that totally refute the prior “only plausible answer” and nary a whisper will be heard acknowledging the other side of the coin: if this truly IS “the only plausible answer” then we were wrong when we announced with absolute certainty that last time was “the only plausible answer”.
Science: always certain, rarely right, never acknowledging the upshot that consequently yesterday’s answer was in error.

Not One Job
There is zero proof that the president has saved or created one single job in his first year plus.
Not one single job created, or saved. Not one.
Let me repeat, President Barack H. Obama has not created one job.
Let me repeat, President Barack H. Obama has not saved one job.
President Barack H. Obama has not done a good, or even decent job.
Why did I vote for President Barack H. Obama? As it turned out:
Because he was a good public speaker and sounded different.
Because he made me believe he would do me good.
He was and is a liar!
He is arrogant, narcissistic, cold, uncaring, lost, and over-matched by the job.
He will not get reelected – so he might just as well leave a positive lasting legacy.
How can he do that? Start doing the job, and spend his final three years in office
doing what all presidents and public servants are expected to do:
Start serving the people, the citizens, the voters. That’s why it is called public service!
Oh, yes, and bipartisanship? Don’t even get me started!!

I have to feel sorry for poor Mr. President. He just cannot seem to get himself out of campaign mode. That is one of many reasons he is such as failure as president. He knows how to really catch us all with one campaign… but that trick is over – if he is a one-trick-pony, someone has to explain that that first-time-around BS campaign does not keep working and working and working… you need to come up with another set of marketing gimmicks and tricks..
• the old outsider gimick does not work twice in a row…
• the old favorite: blame the other guys for everything only works once for each candidate…
• the old ‘progressive’ favorite that the Repub’s are ‘the party of no’ won’t work again
• the totally worn out ‘they just love the rich and kill the middle class’ is dead in the water
• the ‘I’m gonna change Washington’ was a ‘bust’ since he changed Washington to “Chicago” and its most-ugly-politics-in-the-universe style of doing business…
No, we didn’t get ourselves a president – we got ourselves a character assassin for the ages. Unfortunately for Mr. Obama the character he did the most thorough job of assassinating was his own character. Mr. President, please just try to limp through the rest of this rookie-mistake-filled excuse for a first term presidency and then just go quietly into the night without a fight and please close the door and turn out the light on your way out.

Earth to Dina Lohan
Come in please Dina Lohan, can you hear me?!
Lindsay IS a common criminal. She committed a crime and is doing time for the crime she committed. That is criminal and that is common. LINDSAY IS A COMMON CRIMINAL – deal with it.
This is precisely why she is in jail followed by rehab = because you steadfastly refuse to allow her to get in touch with the common, with reality, with real life. Instead you insist on insulating her from how life is supposed to work for common folk or even uncommon folk, which we ALL are!
Get over yourself. You are NOTHING and NOBODY, even when you are trying to live vicariously through your daughter’s success. Lindsay’s success is NOT yours – but her failure is – you invented it, you delivered it, your gawd-awful parenting is why she is in the mess she is in now!

Of course Rep Charles Rangel is upset and disturbed by the outcome of his ethics scandal - he was and is just doing what every member of the federal government in every capacity at every level does as a matter of course - steal the taxpayer blind. The poor guy doesn't understand why he should be called out when they all do it. His question is which snake did he p**s off enough to get bagged when no one else gets bagged for standard operating procedure. And his crimes are chump change compared to the vast majority of criminals, er, um, excuse me - I mean federal employees – especially elected officials.
Ever notice how B. H. Obama always sounds like a high school sophomore trying to emulate a college professor? He tries SO hard to sound professorial and pontificate on his much clearer and more intellegent view of all things.
But it comes down to this: he is/was a specialist. A get-elected specialist. We’ve all seen literally hundreds of them before. Absolutely brilliant at getting themselves elected.
Then we all discover much to our shock, surprise and dismay, that there is nothing but the marketing campaign, that there is nothing under the marketing campaign, that there is nothing after the marketing campaign, nothing new, nothing of value, nothing remotely like change or progress or a refreshingly different and unique perspective – a better perspective than the same old same old Washington DC mantra of blame it on the other guy.
In Obama’s case, the change we were led to believe we could believe in turned out to be a change alright. A change from classic DC idiocracy to classic 1920’s Chicago mob gang warfare; and “you are with us, signing on to our code of silence and corruption – or you’re the enemy, and you will soon be our dead enemy.”
That’s some change. That’s some presidency. Yes we can: see right through it.

Current Frontrunner and The Obama Abyss
I’M GUESSING ROMNEY / BROWN WILL BE THE REPUBLICAN Ticket CANDIDATES IN 2012
I don’t think the party can stand the humiliation of having Palin run again. The ultra-liberal lap-dog press will crucify her even more brutally than they have in the past; just because they will have had more time and resources to find out all about her every move since birth.
Remember: Her experience is as mayor of a city with a population of about 5,000 (at the time), and less than 2 years as governor of a state with about 670,000 residents.
In addition, she and her family will have had that much more time to make complete fools of themselves all by themselves – as the new “BEVERLY HILLBILLIES”. Expect four ghost-written tell all books from the Wasilla-clan by 2014… followed by the soft sound of them all fading back into the Alaska woodlands to practice procreation full time, living off residuals and movie rights cash.
Romney’s problem is his religion. It ain’t politically correct to bring it up – but it is hanging there like a smoked ham. I do not think he can overcome it in the general election – but more importantly he can’t get to the general election until he overcomes it in the Republican nomination process. I don’t think so. Too bad – right now he has the best shot at winning.
One thought: good strategy would be to dredge out as much talk as possible about his father - George W. Romney was an American businessman and Republican Party politician. He was chairman of American Motors Corporation from 1954 to 1962, the 43rd Governor of Michigan from 1963 to 1969, and the United States Secretary of Housing and Urban Development from 1969 to 1973. He was and still is well regarded in both conservative and Republican circles and we are about to head into the biggest “nostalgia” era in Republican history – yearning for the “good old days” when the country had a future and was not about to fall into the ditch that will be forever known as the Obama Abyss.

Obama’s approval ratings are down for a number of reasons:
*Jobs*
Obama, his administration, and DC in general have done virtually nothing to make more jobs available to the average American worker. Where do 80% of jobs come from? – SMALL BUSINESS. Obama hates business, especially small business. Virtually everything DC has done in the past 18 months has made it much harder to be a small businessman and made it all but impossible to open a new small business. Small business is a precarious thing, and on any given year many businesses are born and many die. In the past 18 months many businesses have died, much more than a typical year – but very few have been born, because DC makes it very hard to open and run a new small business. They make it harder EVERY year. DC has also let the middle-American economy stagnate, which is death to small business. DC has been glad-handing and heaping help onto their cronies… while they literally laugh over Filet mignon about the plight of small middle-America business. The web-media phenomenon means middle Americans get to find out about this corruption via means other than the “bought and well greased major media”, whose significance, power, and prestige are plummeting, even though the power-elite are taking very good care of those in the media who are good obedient puppets.
*Real Estate*
Historically the one way middle-America could get a bit ahead was by owning real estate, at least one home and perhaps eventually investment real estate. That dream is dead. That avenue is blocked for the foreseeable future. We have all seen the videos and read the books and articles about the real estate scam being perpetrated by the power-elite. Insiders move from government regulation jobs, to private sector jobs and back and forth over the years building their network of insiders. When it is their turn to be on the government regulator side they “take care of” their cronies in the private sector – when it is their turn to be insiders in the private sector, their cronies who have recently flipped over to the government regulation side in turn, take care of them. This flip-flop between government insider and private sector insider continues throughout their career until they retire as members of the elite 5% wealthiest insiders. It is virtually impossible to get into this game without rock solid connections. It is even more impossible to get information out of this power-elite under any circumstances.
Check out what Obama has done for his cronies within this power-elite and know that just like the five most recent past presidents did – he will have a gold mine waiting for him when he returns to the private sector.
Generally past-presidents net worth goes up by 100% to 5000% within five years after they leave the presidency. That doesn’t happen by accident. Again, the web-media phenomenon means middle Americans are forced to find out about this corruption via means other than the “bought and well greased major media”.
*Broken promises*
We all remember the exciting promises of the Obama YES WE CAN campaign of change we can believe in. Let’s put an end to the partisan bickering down in DC, he proclaimed. DC is broken. We need to shake ‘em up down there. We need a new era. That’s what Obama said. We will provide a new way for the DC crowd to operate for the good of the American people.
What he failed to mention was how neck deep he was in the century-old big business of CHICAGO politics as usual. Chicago politics, as we have all come to know, makes DC look like a bunch of naïve boy scouts earning merit badges for good deeds to the country!
