President Obama and Nancy Pelosi have stuffed the so-called stimulus package with “make work” contracts that will kick in at the time of the next congressional election. That is the only useful part of this spending, unfortunately, it won’t affect the few who get these shoveling jobs until 2010.

The President himself has cooked up this strategy, which is why he is already campaigning for his second term, it’s the only thing he knows how to do. He really has no idea how to get out of the way of the economy, he wants to control it.

The so-called “new realism” in the approach to Afghanistan has supposedly been outlined. The President really has no idea what to do with this either, he is just “scaling back.”

“Obama’s objectives will be much more moderate,” said a senior European policy-maker involved in discussions with the Obama team.

Why do we need a Euro-pol to muck up our battles? That crowd does not fight, and still hasn’t shown the will to do so.

The message here is clear: Any type of victory against the Taliban is “unrealistic” and if the continued weakness of the Obama administration encourages an attack, it must be George Bush’s fault.

Add these to the so-called closing of Gitmo, which will allow us to continue “torture” for another year, the four cabinet positions that didn’t make the cut because they can’t handle their money, the release of a Cole conspirator, and the pay cuts for CEO’s (Now is not the time for profits) and we have a genuine hero as our President, ready to blame everyone but himself. Unless he gets challenged or caught, then he admits he screwed up.
