clamoring that this great country of ours is drifting toward socialism! I, therefore, find it refreshing to hear more and more people echoing this "rhetoric". Is America finally waking up? Are we finally realizing the true Barack Obama? What's bringing this on....is it the recent mess in the banking industry? Is it that the U.S. government now owns 80% of A.I.G.? Or is it that the Obama administration has requested unprecedented power to take over troubled private companies as they deem necessary? Maybe it's the "bail out" of the auto industry....or that Mr. Obama basically single handedly fired the CEO of GM. It's possible that Mr. Wagoner needed to go, but is that really the duty of the "Comander in Chief"? If that wasn't enough, the U.S. government will now warranty your vehicle, acording to Mr. Obama. I know what some of you are thinking...."if the government is going to bail them out then they should have a say as to how the company is run"! I would say that is exactly why the government shouldn't be bailing them out! However, maybe it's because of the record deficit spending proposals by Mr. Obama, much of which is on "social" programs....or could it be that for the first time in sixty years or more the President of the United States of America is left of an already socialist Europe and in ways, left of Communist China!!!
Actually, I must admit that I really don't believe this myself. I mean....I'd like to....I would really love to believe that the majority of America has opened it's eyes and turned of it's teleprompter....with a current approval at just over 60%....I don't think so! So what does this tell us? Well, I think, one of two things....either most Americans still don't have a clue....now I don't mean this disrespectful, but I'm amazed at how many Americans know nothing about Barack Obama except that he is an eloquent speaker (not knowing that he is actually only an eloquent reader). The other scenario is that most Americans actually like the policies and philosophies of Mr. Obama. I find either of these scenario actually quite frightening....and I hope you do too!
