I am sad to say that Obama is not surprising me in the least. He could have vetoed the budget, for instance, but instead, let the earmarks roll! Business as usual. Bush’s spending was bad, but you ain’t seen nothing yet. With a monopoly of power in all branches, the drunken sailors will be doing crack to stay awake overtime writing checks. Obama stated that he was going to eliminate “programs that don’t work”, just not THIS year. I am sure we will see more of the same next year as well. Show me a program he is going to cut? That would be evidence I could believe in.
And if you don’t know of Hillary’s longtime sympathy for the bomb throwers, I guess I can’t educate you. Little surprise that the people of Israel voted in a conservative government that will act to protect their national interest, because we sure won’t.
