Obama is failing in meaningful ways on virtually every level. Even in areas where he and his dinosaur media flacks trumpet victory, it is to the detriment of the nation, at least the nation as we have known it. They herald success for Cash for Clunkers but many auto dealers are yet to be paid and fear they may go under awaiting their government reimbursement checks. He is checking off agenda items as they are passed, but these are turning us into a socialist enterprise and something our founders or even Ronald Wilson Reagan would not recognize. Obama's foreign policy is a shambles with Scotland (where I will now never travel and whose products I will now scrupulously avoid) sending a convicted Libyan terror master back to Tripoli for a hero's welcome. He had merely been found guilty of killing two hundred and seventy (270) innocent people in the Lockerbie outrage. So, Scotland was "compassionate" and released this butcher after eight (8) years incarceration so he could die at home from prostate cancer rather than languishing in a prison until he drew his last breath. Then, Libya fetes this bloody-handed murderer as a national hero. You would have thought from the way he was greeted that he was a gold medalist and not a calculating killer. Obama personally received Gaddafi previously, like an equal-as if the Libyan strongman was a true international leader and to show his gratitude to Obama bending over backwards for him, Gaddafi (in a slave state where demonstrations are government-sponsored or quickly broken up) orchestrates this ceremony to spit in America's and Obama's eyes. Obama sells out tiny, beleaguered Israel, starting with his Cairo speech and continuing with relentless pressure. He increases mission tempo and objectives in Afghanistan while tightening rules of engagement that essentially prohibit collateral civilian casualties even when our or allies lives are at stake, causing a massive rise in NATO deaths. He ignores Iran revving up to create nuclear weapons. Obama produces massive, unprecedented national debt and socializes industry, delaying recovery while getting credit in the old line press for facilitating it. Unemployment continues to soar, yet the media says we must be grateful for all Obama is doing for us. We can ill-afford much more of Obama's "help".
