Cover Your Ass, I Mean your Cough

 Arggghh!
 So President Obama thinks his first hundred days were 'a little tense'..
 Get ready bro. 

  Hopefully right now he has decided to shut down all Mexico air as well as the border. Yeah I know it's all over Texas and the little specs on the map are growing larger from Maine to Marin County. Let's do it. I warned you not to squander all our credit on the God Awful Stimulus package. 

  What do I know? Just a someone who got started with this blog nonsense and can't seem to stop whether anyone wants me to or not though basically no one is paying attention here and that is fine.

 Obama's first hundred days? God help us. Hero worship taken to the extreme is pure blindness. 

   It's all too controlled up there,  sell the product, keep your teleprompters in perfect running condition, don't let them you know for all your genius and charm and good looks.
Not much there, there. Pragmatism is fine as long as it is not the key word for a politician to try to keep his sheep together when you actually have no vision as to where we are going or how badly we are buried in a debt society, in a gambler's vision of let's burn some money and get the economic growth we long for. At the loss of freedom, governmental bureaucracy it's not just a necessary pain in the ass. It can be the most stupid, labyrinthine, counter productive manifestation of fear and.... It's all about vision and Obama outdoes even the most ardent Liberal. Here I'll prove it to you he says. Here are 'Billions and Billions' (copyright Carl Sagan) let's have progress. Woohoo! I have no idea what his idea for America in the 21st Century is beyond some color blind utopia, (nothing wrong with that, Guy) 

  Ah well. The bottom line is I am an optimist as is Obama. As someone said we all knew that the USA was going to have to taste some bitter medicine someday. I think most of us did. Obama places his trust in the Government as a solution creator. I believe he ignores the Power of the People to regenerate ourselves. I actually believe that good government can achieve great things for the people. What a great country we are despite the corruption of wealth and politics. We'll get back to building a solid economy someday when we embrace the principals of protection of the land and Nature and the protection of a people's sovereignty. The people have to turn towards more personal responsibility, it's not an impossible dream. Just a necessary part of survival as we move forward with our lives.
