On
Tuesday, January the 28th President
Barrack Hussein Obama preformed his
State of the Union Address speech. He was there to inform the country of his
plans and the state of the union. It appeared to be the same typical
narcissistic speech that certain presidents give when they are trying to
convince people of things that they probably don’t want. A recent radio news
broadcast claimed that 17 percent of Americans had no interest at all in
Obama’s State of the Union speech. I was part of that 17 percent until I decided
that in all fairness I really should hear what the leader of the “free” world
had to say. Unfortunately, my suppositions were mostly confirmed.
Being a conservative, you can be
sure that I would not agree with a great deal of what Obama said. There were,
however, a few things that I agreed with. I have compiled a list of things that
I thought were either good and /or truths and things that are bad and/or lies.
There are some things he said that are debatable, on the other hand, there are
some things he said that would break any bullshit meter. The one thing that
Obama’s speech reassured us of is his inability to turn his head more than a 45
degree angle unless his Teleprompters allow it.
Obama informed us that oil
production is up in America is up and that during the last budget deal, (the
first one of the entire administration) no one really got what they wanted. He
also went rambling on with “Duh” comments like work hard so you can get ahead,
we need tax reform, protect home ownership, troop support and the need for
better education. I’m not saying all of the president’s speech was all wrong,
It’s just the wrongs out-weighed the rights, literally.
The Obama falsity started early in
the speech with his bragging of the national debt and high school graduation
levels. He claimed that under his administration the debt has decreased by more
than half, when in fact the national dept has soared to more than 17 trillion
dollars. I just hope no one tells Obama what comes after a trillion. He also
told us that the graduation rate in American is the highest in 30 years.
According to www.ed.gov 26 states reported
lower graduation rates and only 24 states reported unchanged or slightly
increased numbers.
The president also said “so wherever
and whenever I can take step without legislation, that’s what I’m going to do”.
To my knowledge, most things a president does requires the approval of
Congress. For Obama to avoid Congress to advance his agenda is illegal and
guilty of treason.
He also claimed, that we don’t need
the “accident of birth” to get in the way of our work ethics. He also claims
that less government threatens shutdown, yet he says he wants to cut government
bureaucracy and promises to use his power to battle the global warming myth,
which is more evidence of government waitsing too much of the people’s money.
Obama continued his attempt at splitting our country by preaching on his war on
race and economic inequality. I also heard Obama threaten those who are against
Obamacare by telling them not even try to stop the failed health care plan.
The president did say some things I
approve, but since I trust him about as far as I can throw him, I think he said
some of these things just to make Republicans and the conservatives happy. The
only thing Obama did that brought a standing ovation to the whole room is
giving honors to Army Ranger Sergeant First Class Cory Remsburg.
No president is perfect, has a
perfect presidency, or a perfect State of the Union speech, but I was hoping to
something that would make conservatives happy too. To a socialist president, I
guess that is not the case. According to Gallup, only 42 percent of Americans
approve of how Obama is handling the job. With 58 percent of the people not
happy, one would think he would change his tactics, apparently not. May the
people should remind Obama and the Democrats what the people really want, to
follow the Constitution, and freedom.
