I'm going to start by saying, that's what you get! On a cold November day in 2008, one of the worst presidential candidates was elected into office. Although we had a fine example before us of what a president should not be, the majority of Americans believed it wise to elect a particular candidate from Illinois...but they were wrong. To elect a man who we knew nothing about, a man who's citizenship was in question, a man who practically boasted about his lack attitude on foreign policy.
In a previous post, I described the stupidity of him being awarded a Nobel Peace Prize and him breaking a promise about bringing troops back home, since then he has done other things worthy of my criticism. This president bowed to the Japanese Emperor, which was supposedly done as a since of respect, Hello? The president of the free world should not bow to anyone, it comes across as a sign of weakness not respect.
Recently this same president, who during his campaign said he would increase spending on like education and health care, just called for a three year spending freeze.
I think I will stop telling people I'm a democrat for the next three years, and perhaps join the Libertarian or Green party, which will give my dad a kick since he thinks they are attention seekers. I do not know how much longer I can ignore this president and believe that if I don't see him or hear him he isn't really there. Three years couldn't pass fast enough.
