How Ironic!

 In one of his many recent media appearances, President Obama mentioned without the least bit of irony that our children are growing up in a society that does not value hard work. This is indeed an excellent observation by our leader. Now, if only someone could get to the bottom as to why our children are not taught the values of hard work and self reliance! Hum... let me think here... could it be that the left wing progressive, latte drinking, tree hugging, Volvo driving, bleeding heart liberal media and educational professionals teach our children that they can be rich and famous with-out doing any work. Oh... wait... The President did say that! My bad. However, he did leave out as to where our children get those ideas from! That's right, they get it from the President's friends, the left wing progressive, latte drinking, tree hugging, Volvo driving, bleeding heart liberal media and educational professionals. That's right kids, never fear, big brother is here and if you happen to buy a champagne priced house while only being able to afford the beer priced one, we'll bail you out. If you happen to drive a "clunker" we'll bail you out. That's right boys and girls, fairness to all, we're all equal, everyone should have equal and free of everything, and the government will do it all for you! Now, should you make too much money, we'll have to take it from you in the form of taxes and spread it around with those who are "less fortunate" than us, who choose to sit on their asses and wait for a hand out from big brother.

How about this Mr. President, considering that you have failed to keep all the promises you made in you campaign even though you had a house full of your own com-padres, do something right for a change, take the lead on this since you brought it up and explain to you progressive buddies in Washington that we are not a socialist republic nor will we ever be. You taught constitutional law in Harvard! You know that we will never let it get to that. After you finish, you can then stop spending money as if it grew on trees, what was your budget for this year? 3.8 trillion dollars? Are you kidding? Where is all that money coming from, China? Oh, yes it is... we're borrowing from china the money we pay them to purchase their Products! Makes a whole lot of sense! How about stopping all entitlement programs, welfare? No welfare for anyone. Actually, speaking of welfare, I recently came across this snippet from the great and talented comedian Bill Cosby, if I may reproduce it here for all to see. Now let's keep in mind that Mr. Cosby is a comedian and at times he might be going a bit over-the-top, but I believe that we can all get the idea as to what he is saying.

AMERICA NEEDS A CANDIDATE WITH THIS PLATFORM!!


I HAVE DECIDED TO BECOME A WRITE-IN CANDIDATE FOR PRESIDENT IN THE YEAR 2012...

HERE IS MY PLATFORM:

(1). Any use of the phrase: ‘Press 1 for English’ is immediately banned. English is the official language; speak it or wait outside of our borders until you can.

(2). We will immediately go into a two year isolationist attitude in order to straighten out the greedy big business posture in this country. America will allow NO imports and we’ll do no exports. We will use the ‘Wal-Mart’s policy, ‘If we ain’t got it, you don’t need it.’ We’ll make it here and sell it here!

(3). When imports are allowed, there will be a 100% import tax on it coming in here.

(4). All retired military personnel will be required to man one of the many observation towers located on the southern border of the United States (six month tour). They will be under strict orders not to fire on SOUTHBOUND aliens.

(5). Social Security will immediately return to its original state. If you didn’t put nuttin in, you aren’t gettin nuttin out. Neither the President nor any other politician will be able to touch it.

(6). Welfare. — Checks will be handed out on Fridays, at the end of the 40 hour school week, the successful completion of a urinalysis test for drugs, and passing grades.

(7). Professional Athletes — Steroids? The FIRST time you check positive you’re banned from sports … for life.

(8). Crime — We will adopt the Turkish method, i.e., the first time you steal, you lose your right hand. There is no more ‘life sentences’. If convicted of murder, you will be put to death by the same method you chose for the victim you killed: gun, knife, strangulation, etc.

(9). One export of ours will be allowed: wheat; because the world needs to eat. However, a bushel of wheat will be the exact price of a barrel of oil.

(10). All foreign aid, using American taxpayer money, will immediately cease and the saved money will help to pay off the national debt and, ultimately, lower taxes. When disasters occur around the world, we’ll ask The American People if they want to donate to a disaster fund and each citizen can make the decision as to whether, or not, it’s a worthy cause.

(11). The Pledge of Allegiance will be said every day at school and every day in Congress.

(12). The National Anthem will be played at all appropriate ceremonies, sporting events, outings, etc.

My apology is offered if I’ve stepped on anyone’s toes …. Nevertheless…

GOD BLESS AMERICA!

Sincerely, Bill Cosby

With this said, Mr. President, start leading, be the President! Let's start creating jobs... you can do this is by getting the government off our necks and ending the continuous stomping on business, big or small. Allow them to expand and create jobs. Let us go about our lives, stop telling us to listen to you as if you were the all mighty O-racle, you listen to the people.
