Obama Is Right
Jan 16, 2014 11:31:28 #
Ive finally found something I agree with President Obama on. Let me say it out loud, "Obama is right." America was not built around fighting ine******y. Never. America was not built around e******y, fairness, or social justice. Those have never been the cornerstones of our economy. Those have never been the central tenants of our country, or our Constitution. Lets all admit that Obama is 100% right.
Yet somehow we managed, even with ine******y not even on our radar screen, to build the greatest nation in world history -- and the greatest economy in world history. Coincidence?
We built an economy more powerful than most of the world combined. An economy so great that people the world over tried to escape their countries to come to ours.
Obama has done something no one thought possible. He has made America ordinary
An economy so great the world gave it a name: the American Dream.
An economy so great that people the world over believed Americas streets were "paved with gold."
We managed to create more jobs than the rest of the world. Good paying jobs that produced the strongest middle class ever. We managed to lift more people out of poverty than the rest of the world ever imagined possible.
Even if not everyone got rich in America, the entire middle class lived a quality of life richer than the rich in other countries.
We managed to create more millionaires and billionaires than the rest of the world. We managed to win two world wars. And we managed to invent pretty much everything the world cares about.
Can you imagine? This all happened without ine******y on our minds.
Without worrying about ine******y, millions of immigrants like my grandfather Simon Reis came to America without a dime to their name, but loads of ambition, dreams of greatness, and unmatched work ethic. My grandfather turned a 4-man butcher store into his American Dream. That couldn't happen in any other country in the world.
But that's wasn't good enough for Obama.
Obama comes along, obsessed with ine******y. He lectures us about it in every speech. His entire agenda and every policy is intended to create e******y, fairness, and social justice. He vows to "fundamentally t***sform the United States."
The result? Suddenly the unstoppable American economy is stopped cold in its tracks.
Our GDP is in quicksand.
The great American jobs juggernaut is in reverse.
We have chronic unemployment.
The lowest work force participation rate in 35 years.
Massive deficit and debt.
We have millions unemployed. Millions more under-employed. Forty-seven million on food stamps -- more than the population of Spain. Over 10 million on disability. More Americans on entitlements than working in the private sector. Over 46 million living in poverty -- twice the population of Syria. Over 6 million more Americans living in poverty just in Obama's first term. The number of Americans without a job has increased by almost 10 million under Obama.
Thousands lined up for menial jobs, with a better chance of getting into Harvard than getting a job in a fast food restaurant.
Under Obama, with this focus on ine******y, suddenly America is no longer America. Suddenly we arent the greatest country or economy in the world. Suddenly we are rather ordinary. Under Obama, Yes we can has turned to No we cant.
But we actually owe a debt of gratitude to Obama. He has proven, once and for all, the answer to the question, "What made America the greatest nation in world history?" It isnt the air. It isnt the water. It isnt the dirt.
If those things made us great, why arent Mexico and Canada great? They share our borders. Why isnt Cuba great? Its right off our Florida coast. Why didnt those countries dominate the world? Why only America?
And it sure wasn't a focus on e******y, fairness and social justice.
Every country in world history that made those principles the centerpiece of their economy became a dysfunctional economic basket case. Name anything great that ever came from Venezuela, Argentina, Angola, or Zimbabwe?
Why didnt the old Soviet Union or China dominate the world like we did?
Why are North Koreans starving to death?
Why isnt Europe a powerhouse like America? Why are Greece, Italy, Spain and France facing economic Armageddon? Why do they have 25% unemployment, 55% youth unemployment, and massive unsustainable debt? Those countries all cared far more about e******y than we ever did.
Thank you Mr. Obama. You have proven exactly what made America great. Not just great, but THE greatest in world history. Our obsession wasnt ine******y, it was opportunity and economic freedom.
Our Constitution never talks about ine******y or social justice. We never guaranteed happiness or wealth -- only that everyone would have the opportunity to pursue happiness and wealth with economic freedom.
Its opportunity and economic freedom that creates mobility and massive growth. Thats what creates jobs by the millions. Thats what created the world famous American Dream and those famous streets "paved with gold." Thats what created the American middle class that was the envy of the world.
As if on cue, the 2014 Economic Freedom Index came out yesterday, listing all the countries in the world.
Under Obama the United States has dropped all five years on the list, for the first time in history. Under Obama the United States has dropped out of the top 10, for the first time in history.
Tragedy has befallen the United States. We are officially headed in the direction of Cuba, Venezuela, North Korea, Zimbabwe and Iran.
Obama, with his obsession with ine******y, has k**led the goose that laid the golden egg (and the golden streets).
Obama with his obsession with ine******y has led us straight to shared misery.
Obama has done something no one thought possible. He has made America ordinary.
Because of Obama, now we know exactly what made America great. And we know not to ever take it for granted again.
Now we have a choice to make. Which path do you choose for your childrens and grandchildrens future? Think long and hard. Because the answer will change the course of history.

Obama has done exactly what Obama set out to do "destroy the great Satan". We the people allow this to happen. The last few generations have had it so easy that they do not understand what it takes to make a great country. Nor do they care. Look at people today, they have the latest electronic gadgets, there are a huge number of people that are on drugs of some sort, and that is not limited to the young. There are plenty of 40, 50, and 60 year olds that are on some type of drug. A******n, out of wedlock children, and left-wing liberals are what has brought this country down. Not just Obama.
Obama has hastened the demise of this country, but he is not totally responsible. He is the "right person", at the right time. I am certainly not giving Obama pass, but if the people of the United States were not so busy being politically correct, then he would never have been elected in the first place.
So is Obama totally responsible for the demise of the once great United States of America? No, but he has certainly been an expediter of the road that we're headed down anyway. There are tons of reasons why this country is no longer what it once was. Look at the people, the corruption, the selfishness of the politician's and Wall Street as well as the destruction of morality within this country and you will see the true "EVIL DOERS" that have helped bring down the formerly great United States of America

You are absolutely correct Stan. The "EVIL DOER'S" are 'we'uns'. We set the stage for the usurpation of our liberties by the Progressive Democrats now in power. I shouldn't say' we'uns', it would be more appropriate to say 'they'uns', though 'we'uns' allowed it to occur without enough vigilance on our part. We are now, unfortunately, reaping what we have sown. Hopefully, enough 'we'uns' have awakened to the catastrophe we have wrought, and will make the necessary changes in both Nov. 2014, and Nov. 2016.

Old Gringo: Future historical projections look good for us 'we'uns'....not so good for those 'they'uns'. Good political scientist say as many as 9 gains in the Senate and up to 17 in the house. Just think how many Marxist Progressives we can impeach and put behind bars if this comes to pass?????

It boggles the mind with the possibilities of usurping all those Progressive's from power, and regaining our Country.

Why don't we deport all the i******s currently occupying our prison cells, thus making them available for dispossessed Progressive, and Rino, lawm(br)eaker's.

Old Gringo: I've always had a great plan for the American Lock up system. Just take Third-World bids on incarcerations...and send the Bastards overseas...now that's what I call a "significant emotional experience." If they survived they can re-apply for a new American citizenship and understand what a true pleasure it is to live in the good old USA!

What a great idea, especially for crooked politicians. Brilliant.

I do so hope that this will happen, maybe I'm extra frustrated these days, but for the life of me I can't understand how Obama managed to be sitting in the White House for the second time, the only reason that a few people opened their eyes is because the collaborative media couldn't continue to cover for Obama concerning the outright lies over Obamacare, yet all over these discussions I see Obama supporters unphased by the lies, corruption and abuses of power, still standing by this man and still supportive of his policies, blaming Republicans from keeping him from succeeding, God help us all
