When it comes to foreign thugs and dictators, Barry O has a "please don't hurt me!" look plastered on his hopeful, changing face. Putin knows (because, after all, it is Putin running things in Russia) that he can continue to reassemble the Russian empire because Obama will never take the slightest real action to check him.Jumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08010872199201417401noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7158917.post-46194149712124236712009-07-12T19:31:17.093-04:002009-07-12T19:31:17.093-04:00Does anyone still assume that Obama wants to fix t...Does anyone still assume that Obama wants to fix the economy? There's a stimulus bill which has stimulated nothing. The takeover of the the banks which are still not lending. Taking over GM to ensure that the Autoworkers (those warriors of capitalism!) get their welfare-disguised-as-paycheck. Then heturns his attention to health care 'reform', which will not generate amny revenue, and looks as if it will require more borrowing, and Cap-and-Trade, which will burden American business with higher energy costs and leave them vulnerable to foreign competition.<br /><br />They still have done nothing to shore up the dollar, and forget anything approaching budget cuts. Don't forget 23 new 'czars' with attendant, and overlapping, federal bureaucracies attached.<br /><br />This guiy is not about to fix anything; his modus operandi is about making people ever-more dependant upon the government.<br /><br />Even democrats (small 'd'; intentional) know that if you wish to stimulate economic growth, you take the decisions about money out of the hands of the Congresscritters, and slash taxes across the board and let the people decide how to invest the savings.Matthew Notohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08881509233809999186noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7158917.post-88909777694412667962009-07-12T19:27:05.813-04:002009-07-12T19:27:05.813-04:00Anonymous 4:17 --
