King
Midas went down in Greek mythology as a legendary ruler who had the ability to
turn everything he touched into gold. Thus, The
Midas Touch was coined. We all know this mythical Greek ruler couldn’t turn
things to gold. However, there are people out there that no matter what
enterprise they undertake, it will be a success. Take for instance certain
modern individuals such as Steve Jobs, Lee Iacocca, and Bill Gates. We associate
all of them with success, brilliance and the ability to succeed. Some may
disagree but I would say that they all have The
Midas Touch.
I’d
like to be the first to coin a new term. This term will mean the exact opposite
of
The Midas Touch. You can be
creative and think of it as many things such as: turning something good into
crap or producing a negative outcome at all times.
After
little deliberation I have coined the term: The
Obama Touch. I think it adequately sums up the job Obama’s done throughout
his life. From his poor grades in college, do-nothing job as a community organizer,
unremarkable Senate career to his record as president. I know there are some
liberals out there but you can’t disagree that he’s a less than remarkable
individual. The only noteworthy event in his presidency was winning the Nobel
Peace Prize. The only thing this award did was to confirm that all success in
his life was handed to him instead of earned.
The
facts about our current president are obvious. He promised the unemployment
rate would not be over 8%. Yet, after putting our country in another 6 trillion
dollars of debt and not producing a federal budget in 3 years we have not gone
below 8%. Maybe he just got his number wrong like he did the states-57?
Remember
how he personally sought out the Olympics for Chicago in 2016. Well, the only
thing The Obama Touch accomplished
was see the event go to Brazil. Just like all of our jobs here in America- work
is going overseas. He’s done nothing to promote the American economy. In fact
he’s made it more difficult to invest in the US and his policies actually deter
foreign companies from opening business in the states.
You
also see how his Green Energy program is going. Instead of promoting green
energy through incentives, he’s blindly giving our hard-earned taxpayer money
away to failing companies. He poured US cash into Solyndra despite all indications
that it was a failure. There’s a simple rule: putting good money on top of bad
doesn’t make it turn good. Instead, it makes all the money bad.
Plus,
his major piece of legislation, Obamacare, is unconstitutional and will be soon overturned by the
Supreme Court. And if it’s not overturned, it will be de-funded. Just think of
all the time and money wasted on this socialist piece of crap legislation.
America
now hasn’t been more divided since the Civil War. Gas prices are soaring. People
on food stamps, disability and federal aid have markedly risen. He’s shrinking
the military in a time of war???
Listen
the only way I can sum up his abysmal presidency is The Obama Touch. He’d still like to blame Bush. However with over
three years of total failure, I think WE CAN ALL BLAME OBAMA.
