There seems to be contempt growing against the President of the United States lately and there is a laundry list of reasons why many Americans are becoming angry.
While President Obama probably deserves an Academy Award for his performance, (since that is what politics are all about, performances) it is high time for this man to start accepting reality and get serious. People in this country are suffering horribly from just about everything. Tens of millions of people are out of work, while the Federal Government continues to throw out false numbers of unemployment and that the economy has been recovering. More recently, the record breaking flooding and tornadoes that have been sweeping throughout the South and Mid West has affected an estimated 80 million people.
The residents in Joplin, Missouri have spent this last week digging through wreckage for deceased loved ones. Meanwhile, President Obama has spent the week vacationing throughout Europe drinking beers in Ireland and dining with the Queen of England, and making a complete ass of himself in the process.
Remember President Bush’s disgraceful response to Hurricane Katrina? Obama already had that similar experience with the BP oil disaster in the Gulf Coast last year. The natural disasters that have occurred recently in the South and Mid West may come back to haunt him come the 2012 election. True, he will be visiting Missouri on Sunday, but if you ask me, Obama should have stopped his European tour for the sake of the nation.
On another note, the President has also violated Federal Law. Under the War Powers Resolution, it requires Congressional approval to continue any further attacks on a country. In this case, it involves the two month long NATO attacks on Moammar Gaddafi’s regime in Libya. Under the law, the operation should have already stopped, but due to Obama’s little excursion to Europe, no action has been taken.
This is because the plan in Libya was to seize oil and it was concocted by Obama and his instigating little shrewish adviser, Samantha Power.
However, some members of Congress are more than a little concerned and calling this as nothing more than ripping the Constitution apart. Remember when Democratic Congressman Dennis Kucinich questioned Obama’s actions as an impeachable offense? Well this certainly should sum it up now.
This is also the first time we’ve had a U.S. President engaged in an apparent “conflict of interest” because he is also serving as Chairman of the United Nations Security Council. In President Obama’s fantasy land, he believes that these powers under the UN allow him to do whatever he wants with regards to other nations, without Congressional approval.
It’s no wonder why so many Americans are becoming so fed up with this man.
Seems like we have a President acting both as a looter and a dictator.
