Politics and Insights from History

Can we afford 4 more years of Barack Obama and his socialist policies? No we cannot. I know there are those who refuse to call Obama for what he is. But think about it; no president since F.D.R. has actively bloated the government, sought the destruction of the United States, and seized power.

Since being elected president Obama has:

· Out spent every previous president

· Grown the size of government while vastly shrinking the private sector

· Force the American people to accept government run health care (If you don’t believe this then you should study the health care legislation of 2010.

· Ignored Congress when they do not do what he wants by using bureaucratic agencies to enforce his policies or just issuing an executive order

· Allowed illegal to remain in the U.S. and wants Americans to pay for their college education

· Strengthened our enemies by allowing our allies in the Middle East to fall in the Arab Spring movements, which is quickly being overrun by the Muslim Brotherhood.

· Exerted more control over the financial industry with the Financial Overhaul Bill.

· Dissolved the Separation of Powers. Whenever Congress or the Supreme Court tells him he can’t do something, he does it anyway. Net Neutrality is a good example of this.

· Violated the Constitution time and time again.

· Increased power to the Executive Branch.

· Kept the economy in a recession despite all of his stimulus bills.

· Taken over the auto industry in America and turned it into a government run business.

· Appointed 30+ czars thus setting up a shadow government. All of these czars are not approved by the Senate and answer only to Obama. They are also all far left ideologues who think the United States needs to be turned in to Soviet Russia.

· Has used the NLRB to tell companies such as Boeing where they may build a manufacturing plant.

· Has issued many recess appointments to get his people in power when the Senate refused to approve of the appointments. Obama recently made a recess appointment to fill his newly created post of CFPB (which was created when the Frank-Dodd financial overhaul bill was passed), even though the Senate was not in recess.

· Caused the economy to stagnant as unemployment remains high. Though the government officially claims the unemployment rate to now be 8.6%, it is really closer to 11.5% since many who are unemployed are not included in the statistics. If Obama loses the 2012 election, do not be surprised if the official unemployment rate, as decreed by the government, jumps.

· Increased the national deficit to over15 trillion dollars.

· Made friends with our enemies while snubbing our allies. Obama loves to pal around with Hugo Chavez and placate Islamic radicals while he insults Israel which has always been an ally to the United States.

· Has managed to turn the presidency into a joke with his weekly concerts at the White House, games of golf, and constant vacationing.  While he and his wife live like royalty and tour the world, many Americans are struggling just to make ends meet.

· Increase the cost of living. The government says there has been no increase in the cost of living. If that is so, then why is it gas prices and the price of groceries and all consumer goods skyrocketed?

· Has made the federal government the only issuer of student loans. Before Obamacare passed, student loans were between the lender and the borrower and you could acquire one from any bank or financial institution. Now only the federal government can issue student loans, which means that students must now apply to the federal government for financial help.

· Has let the Middle East go to hell as he threw our ally Mubarak under the bus, allowing a bunch of Muslim radicals to oust him. Obama has also managed to allow the same radicals to take over Libya since he enabled the Libyan rebels to kill Qadaffi. Obama has allowed democracy to fail in the Middle East as radical Islamists, led by the Muslim brotherhood take over every country that had an “Arab Spring”.  When the people of Iran tried to protest Ahmadinejad, Obama ignored them. He remained silent as Ahmadinejad murdered his own people.

· Shrank our military with constant cuts in the defense budget. This just weakens the United States and paints a huge target on us for our enemies.

Is this the sort of man we want to remain as our president? As Obama seizes more power and blatantly violates our Constitution, America grows weaker. Each day we come closer to being in a fascist country where one man dictates everything. Barack Obama is a tyrant and a dictator. The senate has just cause to impeach the man, but refuse to do it. Many Republicans are too scared to stand against Obama.

In 2008, Americans wanted Barack Hussein Obama to be the 44^th president of the United States. What we got was a statist who has abused his power, violated his oath of office, and used every opportunity to take control of the country. America is best rid of him. This November you have a choice: Obama’s promise of slavery, or American Liberty.
