obama extends a hand to republicans

Obama received applause and kudos from Americans for extending a hand to Republicans and attempting to initiate non-partisan solutions to the problems facing our country.

However, not only was his hand as empty as his plan to accomplish anything "productive" and "good" for our country, it was as empty as "show" of non-partisanship.

Unfortunatly, the Obamites that have drank the coolaid and require grand speeches instead of substance don't see through the fog. They think that because he "said" he was reaching out that it must be true.

However, it is as true as any liar that pretends to "listen". His agenda was not flexible. The core problems the Republicans had with the stimulus packate were ignored. In fact, he turned his outstretched hand around and delivered it to the face of every "thinking" American by saying that "I Won" as if that makes faulty logic and detrimental programs somehow "OK" all of the sudden.

If High School antics, attitude, and drama are what our president views as reaching out and working with Republicans then he will be a fantastic failure even if the media figures that love him so much lie to the American public on his behalf.

Reaching out is not telling others that their reservations and opposition to programs is to be ignored because "he won" Reaching out is not sitting down at the same table and offering socialism to Americans that know better.

We really might have made a mistake with this guy. His inexperience and arrogance are exactly what this country DOES NOT need at this juncture. The American citizens can only hope that he wakes up and realized that there is more to fixing our problems than empty words and sitting at tables with your eyes and ears shut to anything contrary to what you thought was right in your infinate ignorance.

America is not a neighborhood in Chicago. America has problems significantly more diverse than a single community. Our economy is on the brink of disaster and the Liberal mindset is something that only works when we have the resources and convenience to indulge the masses.

The Mortgage Crisis

The mortgage crisis could not have been an accident. The people that "approved" the mortgages KNEW that:

  1. Were going to have prohibitive payments in 12 to 24 months
  2. Were going to be on property worth far less than what they sold for within 12 to 24 months
  3. Would be forclosed on because they couldn't sell for the amount of the mortgage

Bankers blame it on homeowners making bad decisions or not having foresight. However, those bankers get very uncomfortable when you point out that these mortgage were all approved by bankers that get PAID to know the market and it's trends.

When you point out that regular people like you and I saw this coming back in 2004/2005, they start to tap their fingers and look around nervously.

The short answer is that they set us up and we don't know "why".

Mortgages traditionally require people prove they can make the payments even when the market is not headed down. The banks knew exactly what they were doing...

The Media On It's Knees

Why is it that the mainstream media is clamoring on their knees in front of Obama as if their unwarranted affection will somehow lower his zipper and give them what they so desperately seem to want?
