Is it me or has anyone noticed OB's approach to the office of President has resurected the Clinton's all over again. One has to only notice thus far whom he has annointed to his circle of friends. Many have so many discretions, yet Obama always looks the other way. It does not matter if they are bright, articulate and so values go out the window. What ' s going on? Could it be the Fox is in charge of the Hen house? Hang on America its' going to be a bumpy ride.

I am so proud that the Repub's are all unified in trying to stop the madness of this great spending spree the Democrats are about to unleash on every citizen who pays taxes. Their children, g.children, gg grandchildren and God knows when and if we will every be a gov't by the people and for the people ever again! We are going down if all this crap is carried and pulled off on the American people. We are in the gravest danger ever to face the American people. All one has to do is go back to 20s and 30s and see that the New Deal became the NEW DEALER and unleashed massive gov't handouts that even after delayed the crisis that sweped over the country and the political expedience delayed the CORRECTION that would have come if pollics had taken a step back and the real concern of the American people had take first place in this time.

One only has to read "Jefferson the Forgotten Man" which is LBC and take a good lesson from a Democratic Congressman of the time who saw what was happening and had to step back from this grave mistake in telling the American people...EXPEDIENCY NOW!! Only to find themselves dependent of a bigger and controlling Gov't that caused the people to become weak never thinking that it was THEY who held the key to a recovery from goodies to be handed out with no consequences.

Stand back America and inhale before we have to exhale and and see what's really happening to our beloved country and those who have nothing except future corruption down the road and taxing and spending us all into oblivion! Pres. Bush we miss the secuity you gave us. We miss the sincerety you provided for us the American people in times of terrorist overthrow. We miss your courage and conviction and your faith in the American people and your sincerety that did not falter and because of you Sir. Iraq is on the move to a greater freedom than they ever could envision. It was you Sir who made thousands of Men, women and children have the hope that Democracy affords those who are willling to take a stand against evil doers. Thank your Sir, and your are already very much MISSED!
