He just doesn’t get it
Tonight President Obama headed to Virginia to attend a Democrat retreat to beg whine, and scoff for his stimulus plan. I found it a bizarre scene. There is Barrack Obama thanking Nancy Pelosi for her hard work on the bill when she is the one who stuffed it with every Liberal pet project possible. She is why it failed to garner any Republican support in the House and why virtually all Republicans in the Senate are prepared to vote against it.
Why was here speaking, nay begging to Democrats? He has the votes needed according to Harry Ried. He continues with the theme of desperation and oncoming disaster and demands the bill be passed now, and there is no time for debate. All the while he is claiming he is open to ideas and bi partisan discussion. The public isn’t buying it and all he rhetoric about doing this for the people. They don’t want it and they don’t believe it will help the economy. Yet he keeps going on about every economist in the knowm world sayin this is the right and only way. However Obama does not make the distinction between stimulating the economy and pork barrel spending.
He couldn’t help reverting back to the same old tired liberal talking points. the temptation was just too great. He continued to rail against the Bush Administration and warned that the same old tactics will not work. What Obama fails ro realize is that stuffing a bill full of pork and money for special interest groups is the old way of doing things and is why the GOP lost the majority.
Instead of fear mongering and outright lying he should buckle down, actually read the bill, and stick to his campaign promises. Cut out the pork, deliver true tax cuts And stop with the whining. he is the President and should begin acting like one.
