Resign... or Change, Mr. President

Wow this is one of the best pieces I have ever read on the president and his ability to lie to the American people and at the same time it calls out the compliant media and their dereliction of duty. In that, I mean their clear willingness not to report his lies and bullshit they only report the populist rhetoric he diarrhea's out of his lying mouth.

Resign... or Change, Mr. President

While defending his own policies President Obama has routinely been rude and sarcastic to his predecessor, George W. Bush. Yet Obama appears to be making the resident of the previous White House look like a genius compared to his own serious missteps in office.

Case in point – Interior Secretary Ken Salazar's performance and the communication of priorities on the issue of oil rig safety in the Gulf of Mexico.

It seems incomprehensible that the president and other members of the administration still have jobs when it is now being reported that the federal government was apprised by BP on February 13 that the Deepwater Horizon oil rig was leaking oil and natural gas into the ocean floor.

In fact, according to documents in the administration's possession, BP was fighting large cracks at the base of the well for roughly ten days in early February.

Further it seems the administration was also informed about this development, six weeks before to the rig's fatal explosion when an engineer from the University of California, Berkeley, announced to the world a near miss of an explosion on the rig by stating, "They damn near blew up the rig."

It's also now being reported that BP was asking for the administration's help on this matter long before the deadly accident and the now gushing well of tar.

Which leads me to some questions for the president. If I were in front row of reporters in the White House briefing room, here’s what I’d like to know:

1. It appears, Mr. President, that you were informed by BP about problems on Deepwater Horizon on February 13 and the company wanted your help. What did you say?

2. Given this new revelation, Mr. President, how can you can sleep at night knowing that your inaction cost the lives of eleven men in Louisiana?

3. Did you inform the victims' families about these facts when you invited them to the White House for last month's photo op?

4. You've said, Mr. President, time and again, that the buck stops with you. Doesn’t that statement seem like something bordering on propaganda when you follow it up with what appears to be a false sense of outrage by telling Matt Lauer that you're looking for rear ends to kick?

5. Does the buck stop with you… or not?

6. Are you going to insist that Mr. Salazar step down from his post in disgrace and shame?

7. Will you hold another prime time television press conference and tell the entire truth to the American people? -- These would be the actions of a man who says that the buck "stops" with him.

8. I know when this news was breaking midday on Saturday about the latest BP developments that you and the Vice President were out on the golf course. Was it 39th or 40th time you've played a round in 18 months? (Just for a point of reference President Bush played golf 24 times in eight years.) Never mind, your priorities are for you to decide. At least until election night...

And now here's where I would not be able to stop myself from saying more...

It is one thing, Mr. President, to be forced to deal with unexpected circumstances and to have to deal with genuinely new problems. President Bush sure had to. He had to respond to an attack on our homeland that took the lives of 3,000 of our fellow citizens. But on his watch no other terrorist actions took lives of Americans on our soil, largely due to his steadfast leadership and willingness to accept no excuses on the matter.

But Mr. President, you seem to have very little leadership experience and it appears you have even less skill. Being a good dad and nice guy who sees the world as he wishes it to be is not exactly a resume of exacting leadership.

Your advisers have failed you and you have failed the American people on nearly everything we've asked of you.

Where you go from here is really your call, but you should consider two options if you genuinely love the country you work for and those of us you report to.

First, change your tactics. Second, appear to care. Attempt to engage and empower Americans who can and will go solve this mess.

Otherwise resign.

For the good of the nation, for your own children's future, change your patterns or change your path... but change!

You do remember that word don't you, Mr. President?

Well America got just what it wished for President Barack Hussein Obama. Today was day one, I can only hope that day two will be a change from this one. A dumbass poem recited by a retard, a racist rant of a prayer and a typical Obama speech. No substance merely soundbites that had just sounds and no bites. It was full of vagaries and campaign promises of hope and change. Nothing solid, as usual, from Obama. Now this is the guy I am just supposed to accept as president like the rest of the sheeple in that crowd. All of a sudden my car payment will be made, my rent/mortgage will be paid my state's billions of dollars deficit will disappear and all will be great with the world. I did not make this last sentence up these ideas were uttered by sheeple pulled from the 2-3 million strong(yeah right) crowd. Now we here know that he will do no wrong in the media's eyes every left turn will be good for the country at least that will be what the polls and focus groups will say. On election day 2012 it will be too late people to change and hope to get our America back it will be gone. The size of the government matters and it will be too big to control, they will intrude in every aspect of our lives. Now he wants a $825 Billion stimulus package but we will not see a dime so it is more of a government buying more and more financial industry assets package. Government running corporations, because the government can run deficits and add to the debt without consequences but let's face it that bubble will soon burst too. When this bubble bursts it will be depression in America and this will be the worst we have ever seen. Has government learned nothing from the education system in America, you cannot keep throwing money at a problem to fix it you actually have to fix it.

Obama talks of expanding government as a good thing and to him and his ilk it is, the bigger the better, the more people on the dole the easier they are to control. Just like he said in his speech the old way of doing things is over; so long capitalism hello socialist agenda. Eventually the apathy of the people will give way to complete government domination of "We the People" except for one little minor detail, the Second Amendment. Me and people like me will to fight and die (hopefully not) to defend the Constitution, the Bill of Rights and the millions of others who gave up their lives to keep this country free. See when the government starts limiting guns we can buy or the amount we can own or puts restrictions on ownership they plan to take over. Be vigilant in your lives and never accept what a politician tells you ANY politician regardless of party always ask why and protest because when it all comes down to it they all want ultimate power. My biggest fear that we will no longer be the United States of America but a Western European Socialist State of America. Today is day one of America heading in that direction. Yeah, it fuckin sucks.
