Our commander and chief

Editor, Index-Tribune:

 

As predicted, the conservatives are disappointed, the liberals are outraged and whining (but that's what they do best) and the Tea Party is still scratching their heads. I heard people worried that if the deal wasn't cut, the stock market would crash and the world would come apart. All the dire predictions from our President would come to pass.

Well, the stock market is tanking, the GDP figures from the first quarter were a lie, last quarter was anemic at best and the world markets are struggling.

This is not because we were late getting a debt limit deal, it's because everyone else in the world sees what these dolts are doing. They cut two-thirds of 1 percent of their out-of-control spending and they party all night long.

We are broke and it's getting worse, not better. Spending has increased 41 percent in the last three years and what good did that do the jobs picture? It is rotten and predicted to again, get worse.

California is in fantasy land and Moonbeam is floating aimlessly. Get ready for the really tough times when they print more money and Gold goes higher. Two years ago it was $800 an ounce. Now it's topped $1,600 and that's not due to the world confidence of our neighborhood organizer's knowledge and executive planning. His efforts are well-planned to crash our economy and so far that is the only thing he has executed well.

Don't let a good crisis go to waste, I think was their comment. It's been one crisis after another with this guy.

By the way, all those folks at the square on Friday should put Obama's name on the anti-war posters since they took Bush's off. At least they admit he's finally gone, unlike our President. These wars are his babies now and you have to throw in Libya. Boy, that's more executive execution from him. What a guy!

Has anyone figured out yet exactly what we are doing in Libya?
