Just thinking out loud, but given all the tough talk last year regarding Iran’s development of nuclear weapons why is Obama so quiet?  Does he just lack the backbone to be a leader?  I would say that this is a little crisis going on over there in the middle east and what is our chosen one doing?

Going to Denmark to pitch the Olympics.

Yes, that’s what we need at this critical time.  He shouldn’t be trying to put our minds at ease about what he plans to do with Iran.  We don’t need to address more seriously the problems in Afghanistan.  We certainly don’t need try and resolve our healthcare fiasco.  And Mr. President, whatever you do, please continue to ignore the recession and the joblessness in our country. 

Oh, I see, he’s using the old “lets go to sleep and hopefully everything will be fine in the morning” tactic.  President Obama, you sly fox, you go and enjoy your stay in Copenhagen, everything will be just fine.

I believe the government is missing something more at the core of the healthcare debate than just reform; this country’s distrust of our elected officials.

How can anyone with half of a brain think that our government isn’t going to drop the ball yet again.  Let’s review the several ways that our government has earned our distrust.  First Bailout Bill was a 4 page document that basically gave banks and every other corporate giant money to spend on themselves, despite the warnings that our economic lives are in danger.  The Second Bailout Bill, under Obama, which was suppose to be more transparent and used exclusively to revive our dying economy, according the Barney Frank.  Yet months later nobody knows where the money is, and Chris Dodd had to cover Geithner and Obama’sass about the AIG bonuses, which weren’t suppose to be in the bill.  Billions of dollars being wasted subsidizing recycling centers which cause more pollution and cost more to run, the only worthwhile thing to recycle is aluminum cans. 

WMD, lies; Iraqi Freedom, lies; Nancy Pelosi not knowing about the extent of torture; lies.  I can go on and on.  So when the topic of healthcare reform is brought up, and we hear that there are literally hundreds of renditions of this bill, all packed with worthless pork and double talking, why would the citizens of this great country protest, if not for protest sake.

So Washington, D.C., sleep well in the beds that you’ve made for yourselves.  Nobody trusts you anymore.
