Have
Obama and the rest of his cabinet lost total touch with reality? With Obama’s
recent comments that the “Private sector is doing fine” it confirms all my
beliefs that he’s living on his own world.
Seriously,
we must dissect his statement. Does he really think the private sector is fine?
Contrary to all indicators such as the high unemployment rate, increased people
on welfare, section 8 and other government programs and soaring underemployment
rate, he could think private industry is doing fine. As mindboggling and as
totally absurd as it sounds, he may actually believe it.
Is
there that much of a disconnect with him and the real world? Does he have any
grasp of simple economics? Does he even understand how the economy works? Does
he know how much people around the country are hurting for work? Does he
understand how difficult it is, despite a good education, to find a quality
job?
The
simple and most logical answer is that there is a disconnect and he’s as
clueless as Kim Kardashian at a Mensa convention. It would explain his inexplicably naive
comment and make sense of his whole tenure as president. We all realize by now
that he was unqualified for the job and his entire resume consisted of a single
speech (As eloquently pointed out by Hillary Clinton) at Senator Kerry’s
Democratic convention. The truth of the matter is that being President of the
USA is no joke. It takes skill, training and one heck of a resume. If you’ve
really accomplished nothing significant in life like Obama, then taking on the
job of president was well out of his league.
I believe that this is the most probable cause
for his statements. However, I still have a nagging feeling that he simply
doesn’t care. It’s been about him since day one when he got into office. When
the brave Navy seals killed Bin Laden, he took the credit. He took credit for
Bush’s Iraqi withdrawal schedule. He took credit for the auto industry. When
things went bad, however, he never took the blame. It was Bush, the European
economy, the Republican in Congress, or the Supreme Court and the list goes on.
When President
Truman was in office he said that the buck stops here. Obviously the only thing
that stops in the White House now is his media cronies, Hollywood elitists and
his personal lobbyist. Well, Mr. Obama, I have some advice for you. As
President of the great USA you should feel proud to serve the people and not
feel as if we should feel proud to have you lead us. Remember that the next
time you speak.
