It's Bush's Fault!

We are still hearing about all the horrible things that happened to us during the "last 8 years" as an excuse when someone cannot give a reasonable answer to a question about President Obama's agenda! According to them, it's still now (and somehow always will be) Bush's fault!

The liberals love to create villains! President Bush was their first major villain. Wall street, CEO's, banks, insurance companies, republicans, talk radio hosts, doctors, are just a few of the many "villains" the liberals love to have us hate! These days even the American people who disagree with the Health Care agenda are labeled "villians"!

Many Democratics in congress still blame Bush for a war that most of them voted for! They blame him for the housing market downturn that was primarily the effect of Fanny Mae and Freddy Mac's democratic governmental interference in the housing market.

Democratic handlers use the strategy that "if you repeatedly say an untruth long enough, people will start to accept it as truth"! The "8 years" excuse is a prime example. I remember living through at least 7 years of prosperity! When the Democrats took over control of congress in the last 2 years of Bush's term, the economy started to feel the effects of liberal fiscal irresponsibility, such as the fiasco with government regulation over mortgages with Fanny Mae and Freddy Mac.

In the last 7 months, President Obama has spent more taxpayer money than any other President, under the guise of a "stimulus package" that has done very little except bring taxpayer funded pork projects into various states. In 7 months, he has increased our national debt more than any other President. He has grabbed government control over private financial institutions and major industries. He proposed government controlled health care that will not only put our country into further debt, but will reduce the quality of health care and take away our freedom of choice over our own health.

Instead of using the excuse "the last 8 years", I wish people would apply some common sense to what has happened in the last 7 months! This is Obama's economy now, not Bush's! The Obama administration has made wrong economic moves that have slowed our economy even more during the last 6 months, and have caused unemployment to rise even more. They do these things as quickly as they can so that the American people are overwhelmed and can't monitor all that is happening, allowing them to push their legislation through "under the radar" of the American people.

But, for the administration, it's more about control and power than it is about the American people. President Obama has radical ideas of what this country should be, and it's not the principles which our Founding Fathers valued. He is creating of structure of Czars in our government who answer only to the President, and bypass Congressional oversight. Unelected Czars are controlling major aspects of our government and our economy. He is doing everything in his power to bring our nation into submission, while, at the same time, telling us how much he wants prosperity for all the people!

The more economically needy we are, the more control the government has over us! When they control our finances, our energy supply, and even our health care, they control US! When we have lost all of our savings and 401K's and IRA's and we have nothing left, we will have to go to the government for help. When we are so heavily taxed that we can't make ends meet with what's left of our paychecks, then they have us where they want us!

Wake up, people! The Obama administration knows exactly what they are doing! They are trying to create a "middle class society" (Rahm Emanuel's book) where the elite group (government) controls our lives and our money, and thus, our freedom! You can be sure that President Obama and his friends, and Congress and their friends, won't be "middle class". They consider themselves the "elites". That's the reason that they are arrogant and dismissive of the opinions of their constituents, because they think they know better than we do about what we need and what will keep us "in our place".

Wake up, America! Put the blame where it belongs, with President Obama and the Democratic controlled Congress. Demand fiscal responsibility from President Obama and Congress. Tell them we can't afford National Health Care! Take back our nation before we lose our quality of life and our freedom!
