I have family members that I dearly love. They do have Obama mania (defined as “though he is human he can do no wrong”). This mania stems from “anything is better than Bush” or even a hatred of Bush. Either way  when faced with an argument or debate they retreat to “he has only been in office for 6 months give the guy a chance”. In that 6 months he has collected unprecendented power and apologized all over the world for past “American mistakes” thus making us look weak.

Here are the key points they make.

1. “Aren’t you glad Obama gave the go ahead to kill the pirates?” That decision by Obama is puzzling. He has no problem blowing the heads off pirates but we aren’t allowed to water-board 3 known terrorists to save thousands of lives? Isn’t that hypocritical?

2. Obama increased the national debt 100% in one month! Yet blames Bush that Obama was forced to do this spending spree! No CEO on the planet would keep his job doubling the debit of a company under the auspice that the former CEO caused him to do it! This is fiscal irresponsibility at its worst and treats the average American as if we were children! The arrogance of Obama is incredible. Currently, USA Today stated that only 60 billion of the 750 billion has been released after 3 months! Thus the economy is healing itself. The funny thing is that only 3% of the giant spending bill went for construction projects. The rest are pet projects of the democrats. Here are some examples. Don’t believe me, check out this link from the Wall Street Journal. http://online.wsj.com/article/SB123310466514522309.html

The problem with this debt is what Obama said himself, “We can’t sustain this amount of debt.

May 14 (Bloomberg) — President Barack Obama, calling current deficit spending “unsustainable,” warned of skyrocketing interest rates for consumers if the U.S. continues to finance government by borrowing from other countries.
“We can’t keep on just borrowing from China,” Obama said at a town-hall meeting in Rio Rancho, New Mexico, outside Albuquerque. “We have to pay interest on that debt, and that means we are mortgaging our children’s future with more and more debt.”
Holders of U.S. debt will eventually “get tired” of buying it, causing interest rates on everything from auto loans to home mortgages to increase, Obama said. “It will have a dampening effect on our economy

But what does this mean? “I am going to tax you like hell to pay for this”

But he has ordered the Treasury to print money!!!

3. I shared with some family members that an unintended side effect of the Alaskan pipeline is that the caribou seek refuge under the pipeline during the harsh Arctic winter because the oil warms the area around the pipeline. http://www.anwr.org/Background/Caribou-in-the-Region.php I am not sure why this tidbit of science offends family members but the idea is that drilling for our own oil resources can work with the environment? Go figure.

4. Attack on the Health Care Industry. Obama now wants to create another entitlement called nationalized health care.  This gives him incredible power over the personal choices of Americans daily lives and destroys millions of jobs at the expense of helping 85% of Americans who have health care now by fixing the 15% using government run program and putting out of work literally millions of people in our industry and those of the insurance industry.

5. During the campaign the Bush detractors said that Bush was spending 9 billion per month on the war in Iraq. Yet Obama has no problem in one month and with future spending increase this amount by 3,000 billion per month!!! Are you nuts people?

6. When gas prices climbed the family members screamed bloody murder that Bush was driving up the costs and was in the pocket of the oil companies. Even after repeated proof on this blog that this was a ludicrous claim by the family members they continued in their delusion. Well the table has turned and the oil prices are climbing again, so is Obama in the pocket of the oil companies? Didn’t he just beg the Saudi King to lower prices last week? So why is Obama wanting to hurt the poor by increased oil prices? Are the family members going to step up to the plate and be intellectually honest and blame Obama the same way they blamed Bush? I doubt it. Why because there was a hatred of Bush that underlies their comments and sentiments.

Predictions. Obama is consolidating a massive amount of power with the medias help. He i controlling the banks, racking up debt, going to take over your personal choices of health care and now will tell you what kind of car to drive! Next he will bail out the states and the states lose power! He is in the pocket of the unions and which are corrupt and responsible for the downfall of large companies such as GM with their massive benefits and oppressive pension plans.

Looking forward to the health care fight to see how far he will take this country to push his agenda not caring about the average guy who puts people to work such as eflex!

I  hope my family members wake up and finally put on their intellectual honest glasses.
