Off to Copenhagen! In the growing list of firsts for a sitting President, it is time to add Olympic committee participant. He does seem to like to micro manage things. An we are talking about bringing them to Chicago, after all. Never mind there seems to be a fair amount of resistance from the good people who live there about the whole matter. Many think he has some more important things to do than personally lobby for the 2016 Olympic games.
Seems like just last week when he became the first sitting President to chair the UN's Nuclear arms committee. There he diligently discussed ways to eliminate nuclear weapons with some very important leaders from some small impoverished African leaders.
I do wonder why he waited until the next ay at the G-20 to mention Iran's new nuclear facility. I mean, he was the chairman of the UN committee just the day before, that deals with things like that. I just don't understand the guy.
Speaking of, I am still waiting for someone, anyone, to send me a copy of, or a link to, Obama's Health Care Plan. Everyone tells me I am wrong about his plan. And every time his mug is on TV, all he does is talk about his plan.
But I can't find his plan. All I can find is HR 3200 posted by the House, and the Senate Bill that changes daily. And both of these plans contradict what the President says is in his plan.
So where is his plan? I want to read it. And why isn't congress debating his plan, instead of writing their own versions?
Ion that illegal aliens are back in the plan. In the House version they will again be covered. Remember all that you lied stuff from way back two weeks ago? The President swore his plan didn't cover Illegals? Then the House quickly adopted an amendment to exclude illegals, right before they censured that poor little Representative who yelled you lie. Well now that they have smeared him, and it is out of the public forefront, there it is again. Looks like public funding for abortions is back in as well. I could have sworn the President said his plan didn't include that either.
Again, if anyone can point me to the Presidents plan, I would like to read it, and compare it to the ones now in congress.
Speaking of the wars, well, I'm sure you are thinking about them. Probably more then the President is these days, what with the Olympics and the UN and the G-20 photo opportunities with the powerful an the simply crazy leaders of the world, he is a busy man.
But since we now have no clear objective, I think it is time to pull out of both wars. The heck with them. In the eight months our objective went from winning to, well, we're not sure what victory is.
That is pretty much the micro management from Washington that screwed our troops in Viet Nam.
Policy changes this year mean captured combatants now get Miranda rights, our troops cannot return fire if they enemy is hiding behind civilians (which is how they fight), if our troops are attacked and civilians are in the area, our boys must retreat. There are many other silly restrictions, that are only going to lead to unnecessary lose of life for our troops. Since we no longer seem to have the will to fight the good war, as Obama put it, bring them home.
Let Iran take over Iraq and let the Taliban have Afghanistan again.
At the very least decide on whether the General he put in charge to implement his mission should receive the troops he has asked for.
I know, hard to squeeze that decision in, what with going to Copenhagen to fight for the Olympics.
I won't even go into the economic disaster that is getting worse daily.
By the way, does anyone really give a damn about Roman Polanski?
