Wake up America!

All right folks, let's get right to the point. What the hell is wrong with this country? I'm supposed to be proud. Why? Because we have our first affirmative action president? Do any real Americans believe Obama was the best person for the job? Do any real Americans believe Obama has our best interests at heart? Obama is a typical radical liberal and as such, he is only good at one thing, pointing out faults. I understand there were plenty of problems with the previous administrations, but where are the solutions?

Obama spent his entire campaign, and so far his entire presidency, slamming the Bush administration for its shortcomings, but still he has offered no viable solution for our economic troubles. Let's take a look at what he has done. Obama has given our hard earned money to financial institutions that, in essence, are failing and hemorrhaging money everywhere. I thought free market capitalism meant sink or swim, either you succeed or you don't, and if you fail, another company replaces yours. The government now wants to have a say in how these institutions run their business. Can anyone say socialism?

The current administration has also given huge sums to the automakers. Now, I support the big three, but you might as well send that money to Mexico, Canada, or China, because that's where a good percentage of their jobs and suppliers are. Bail out the automakers by all means, but first repeal NAFTA and bring our jobs home. How will the automakers ever succed if the American people can't afford the vehicles they're producing?

Okay, one more thing before I close for the day. Who the hell does Nancy Pelosi think she is? Does she really believe she can accuse one of our largest intelligence agencies of lying to her and Congress, and then just say, "That's it. I'm not talking about it anymore." The way I see it, Ms. Pelosi has three choices produce evidence to prove her claim: publicly apologize for her defamation, or step down and shut up.

Well that's my opinion for now, but don't worry there will be more.
