Senator Hillary Clinton had a video taped interview today where she nearly shed tears while saying, “I have so many opportunities for this country”. I? She said I. She didn’t say that America has so many opportunities and if I’m elected I can make those happen. She said, “I have so many opportunities for this country.” If anything in this campaign sounded more self serving I haven’t heard it.
Her little speech started with, “It is personal.” Of course it is. But what she isn’t saying is that it is personal for her because it has been a life-long ambition for her and her hubby of convenience, Billy Bob Bubba, for him to serve 8 years as President and for her to be elected the first woman President effectively giving him a second bite at the apple without fighting the 22nd Amendment. These have been goals of theirs since college.
Now on to Obama…
Mr. Obama is saying that it is because of the Democrats that violence is down in Iraq. That’s right, our troops have nothing to do with it, Iraqis who are tired of dying in the name of radical Islam have nothing to do with it, in his mind, it was Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid, and a perception of Obama as President that scared Sunnis into negotiating with Shia. What a load of bull!
Obama needs to change his party affiliation and re-introduce the No Nothing Party because that is exactly how he is coming across.
He insists that he can start pulling troops out of Iraq immediately and he can’t. He will shame this nation if he even tries.
And what about the new buzz word – change?
Any Republican elected who is a fiscal Conservative, a true fiscal Conservative so Huckster take a seat, is change. Because George W. Bush isn’t a fiscal Conservative. Democrats are banking on the word change. they want you to think that just because they are Democrats that represents change. They are perpetuating the notion that all Republicans are the same and since there is a Republican in the White House now electing one of them represents change. That’s nonsense.
The Republican 109th Congress spent money like a pack of Democrats and the Republican President didn’t reign in that spending. That made him just as bad as they were on fiscal matters. Electing Democrats to Congress didn’t change that. They proposed more spending. That’s not change. Electing a Democrat President and keeping those thieves in the majority in Congress will make it easier for them to steal more of your money.
Everyone wants change. I want change. I want a true Conservative elected to the Presidency and then we will have change not a bunch of rhetoric based on misguided and/or ignorant perceptions of the definition of change.
