I'm Back: O'bama's first 100 days.

After taking a month off to collect my thoughts and handling some personal issues in my life, I am now ready to get back to what I do best: calling it as I see it!

Mr. O'Bama had his 100 day anniversary this week...For starters, I refuse to address him as President because he acts more like a dictator or King, and since, as of now, our political system prohibits such titles for our nation's leader, I will refer to him as "Mr". Let's get on with it...So, what have we learned about O'Bama through his first 100 days? Well, I suppose that depends on your perspective of the man. If the change you were wanting was one that was a distinct slant towards socialistic policy, then you should be happy. However, if the change you wanted was for a departure from partisan politics, small Federal budget expenditures and some sign that Mr. O'Bama was going to buck the way politics is currently done in our nation's capitol, then you, like me, are not only disappointed and pissed off, but also fearful of what is too come.

It's amazing what our "President" has managed to accomplish in just 100 or so days. In this short period of time he has not only managed to triple our nations debt and taken control of several large corporate entities through thinly veiled "government bailouts", but he has also made us the laughing stock of every one of our enemies through his ridiculous appearances at various foreign functions and gatherings, providing photo op after photo op, shaking hands, smiling, and telling the leaders of those various nations around the globe who have sworn death upon us that "we are your friend". This ludicrous reaching out to these leaders who have said themselves that they are our sworn enemy is scary. It seems that Mr. O'Bama really believes that these leaders WANT to be our friend and that he is totally deaf to their declarations against us-that or he is just plain ignorant.
Now, I don't believe that O'Bama is ignorant-he did manage to weasel his way into becoming the first "Black" President of our nation after all-but I can't help get the feeling that either he has no real clue what he is doing as far as foreign policy is concerned or that he has some grander plan in store for how he wants to "shape" our nation while he is "President".
That being said, his domestic policies definity point to the later.
Anyone who questions that Mr. O'Bama is NOT a socialist has either drank way too much from the Liberal Kool Aid fountain or simply has no idea what the words "socialism" and "socialist" means. For reference (taken from dictionary.com): (noun) 1. a theory or system of social organization that advocates the vesting of the ownership and control of the means of production and distribution of capital, land, etc., in the community as a whole; 2. (in marxist theory) the stage following capitalism in the transition of a society to communism, characterized by the imperfect implementation of collectivist principles. A Socialist is one who practices these principles.
Now, I don't know about you, but O'Bama's current economic policies fit both of those definitions to a "T", and if you aren't scared yet then you should be, because (particilarly) his economic policies are 100% contradictory to everything which America stands for and was built on and if this doesn't scare you shitless-as it does me-then you have more problems than even Dr. Phil could help you with.

Mr. O'Bama has been in office for just 100 days, and if he continues on the path he has started, I'm not sure just how much of the "America" that I grew up in, and love, will be left for my kids and grand kids to appreciate and if I were one of those who were to grade his first 100 days in office he would get an F: for failure to understand what America was built on and what being an American means.
