Obama’s a success if you like bigger government

The results of President Obama’s first 100 days have been rewarding for those who support big government. However, those same supporters must wonder who will pay for all the bailouts, pork and the trillions of dollars being spent without direction, transparency and honesty.

Obama has put our country’s security in jeopardy by releasing CIA and FBI papers, which only benefit the terrorists. His cry for retaliation against the prior administration reeks of childish behavior. The Obama security programs lack thought, intelligence and wisdom.

His social agenda further damages the quality of life for millions of Americans. His conduct with other world leaders demonstrates his lack of understanding of the international world. Obama is bowing to the wishes of the United Nations.

Why would the president of the greatest country on earth continue to denigrate and demean the United States? He is our president; he should act like one.

Those Obama supporters should stop attacking the critics of the president and realize his actions are wrong and dangerous for this wonderful country.

And he has done it all in 100 days.

You, me, Neo and Dan, unless Neo secedes. Do you honestly blame the current economic crisis on Obama? Really? Take Economics 101 at GTCC so you will understand at least the basics before you hold forth an ignorant opinion.

I agree with assessment about Pork spending. He did not keep his word. I also agree about releasing secured papers.

"His cry for retaliation against the prior administration reeks of childish behavior." Quote Obama on this so I will know when he made such a cry. I can find no words by him advocating "retaliation".

"His conduct with other world leaders demonstrates his lack of understanding of the international world." Uh, no. That would be your hero, Bush. The reaction of world leaders to Obama is opposite of their reaction to Bush. You have them confused.

Bush also grew government so he and Barry are both guilty. As for the current unbelievable debt, yes, Barry helped create it. Who controls the spending in DC? Congress, and the democrats have controlled Congress since 2006 and Barry was a member of said Congress. So he had to vote for or against spending. For example, war spending requested by Bush, with one exception Barry voted to give Bush the money. So yes, Barry does bear some responsibility for the mess he asked to be in charge of.

I will agree with that statement. Many of America enemies love Obama, because he is giving them everything they ask for. Bush did bow to our enemies like B.H.Obama did to the Saudi King.
