Keeping It Real: Obama’s 1st 100 days

2009 April 30

Message to Pres. Barack Obama: Keep it real (honest) with the American people.

  • You inherited a deficit, true, but you spent more in your first 100 days as president than ALL of the previous U.S. Presidents combined.

  • Your FY2010 budget is $3.4 trillion. With your signature, you will be tripling the national debt by 2020. Didn’t you promise fiscal restraint in your campaign?


  • U.S. Debt will exceed GDP by 2030. You’re not worried?

One more thing: I am confused about a statement from your prime-time Town Hall address Wednesday night celebrating your first 100 days in office.

“Those of you who are watching certain news channels on which I’m not very popular, and you see folks waving tea bags around,” Obama said, “let me just remind them that I am happy to have a serious conversation about how we are going to cut our health care costs down over the long term, how we are going to stabilize Social Security.”

I thought you didn’t know Tea Parties were even happening? My mistake. Glad to know your staff has enlightened you on current events.

Mr. President, does this mean we can expect you at the next Tea Party July 4?

Signed,

An American Taxpayer

    The thing about these scary videos is that they leave out important context, here, that during the time Obama was talking about the economy suffering under corrupt freemarketeering, McCain was claiming everything was fine.

    The photographic record on George W. Bush kissing King Abdullah booty is very clear: http://tinyurl.com/4jdx9o

    Torture? It’s instructive that the argument we get from the media and from the Right isn’t whether it’s right, it’s whether it “works.”

    And the reason we know all about the tax problems his nominees have? Obama’s vetting process reveals them, and are pretty much the only thing that’s gone the Republican Party’s way so far. So quit grousing about it.

    That brings us inexorably to the “no accountability” bit: If Obama’s such a reckless Commie lover who wants to rain doom on America, how is it the GOP couldn’t retain the Center?

    Did the creators of microtargeting forget how to crunch demographics and craft a message?

    Obama talked about corrupt freemarketeering, but then continued bailing out those same people? Your explanation about vetting is a laughable. Vetting happens before public announcements, not after the fact. Prepare to be disappointed as Guantanamo is simply relocated somewhere else under a different name. I agree with you that Obama bowing was simply a mistake.
