"It's his fault," the second grader complained to me. "I didn't do anything. I was trying to fix it."
"She made me break it," another youngster remarked, when asked what had happened. "It's her fault."
This is typical of students at a young age. They're unwilling, or don't know how, to take responsibility for their actions. They find it easier to blame others.
Is Obama playing this "blame game" of youngsters?
He's forever blaming President Bush for the economic situation, when Bush had to struggle with a Democrat Congress, one of whom was then Obama. This Congress fought almost every positive measure Bush tried to pass. They also orchestrated much of the current banking mess, with Obama profiting highly from it.
When Obama ran for President, he knew the economic situation of the country because, as a senator, he was in the midst of it. He knew what he'd have to face as President.
But it's much easier to blame Bush, even when Obama's current policies worsen the situation, than to face up to being a leader of a country. It was Democrat Harry Truman whose slogan while he was President was, "The buck stops here."

Does Obama Have Control of the Media?
When we see the blind, unquestioning approval that Barack Obama has achieved from the news media, we wonder how he exerted this control over journalists who are supposed to present both sides, to be investigative and objective. When I was a newspaper reporter, my editor regularly instructed us to "get both sides of the story" and "present the whole picture."
We weren't in the town government officials' pockets. We were to look at more than one person's views. We weren't to express idolatry for a specific official or candidate.
As a columnist, I could have express my views, but as a reporter I had to be vigilant, accurate, and unbiased. Today's media act as parrots of Obama's policies, see no wrong as he wrecks the economy and sets himself up as a god or dictator. It's the same scary scenario we saw in Germany as Hitler grabbed power and took control of the media, who then could only spout his praises.
It's definitely is a scary scenario we're experiencing now in this country. How many journalists are holding their heads up with pride of a job done with honesty and integrity.

Obama's Proposed Health Care - Euthanasia for the Elderly & Infirm?
In all the excitement over health care for all, as proposed by Barack Obama and his team of White House administrators and Congressional colleagues, will people look carefully at what it contains? Or will they blindly accept what seems like a good deal without scrutinizing the details, like refusal of treatment for the elderly and those deemed uncurable (by administrators, not doctors and medical staff)?
Check out the article at Alzheimer's Notes, Obama's New Health Care - Will It Result in Elder Neglect & Euthanasia?

Obama Snubs Prime Minister Gordon Brown & Great Britain
Allies for decades, Great Britain, Prime Minister Brown and his family had no to reason to expect a snub from the Obamas because he was too tired from dealing with this country's economic problems. What did he think a President does? Preside at ceremonial occasions and eat breakfast in bed?
The Brits are very annoyed because of the treatment allocated their Prime Minister and his family. And the excuses given by Obama's team for this social gaff.
Obama appears ready to give more time and attention to keeping company with the Taliban!
What does that mean?

Obama Continues to "Snow" the People
Even though Obama is leading the country deeper and deeper in debt and stocks plunge lower, apparently the majority of people continue to be "snowed" by him, according to a poll by the Quinnipiac University Polling Institute.
It is scary and so reminiscent of how Hitler came to power and took freedom away from the German people.
- Are they afraid to speak out and disagree because of his race? When someone does speak out against him, they're likely to be accused as racist, yet other races must bear criticism.
- Are they so overwhelmed by theatrics and charisma that they don't think and use common sense?
- Are many so jealous of those they perceive as having more that they're willing to fall into Obama's jealousy trap?
It is scary and so reminiscent of how Hitler came to power and took freedom away from the German people.

Obama Urges Investors to "Buy Stocks!"
As stock prices plummet to new lows, due to Obama's money spending socialist programs, he now urges people to buy stocks and claims they're a good deal, midst outcries from economists.
This makes one wonder how many of Obama's cohorts are investing in stocks right now? Is this why Obama and crew aren't dismayed by the plunge in the stock market? Does it mean financial gains for them, as well as fueling their class division policy?

Learn from the Obamas How to Woo Your Friends...and Enemies
Whether you're in favor of Barack Obama as President and his policies, anyone has to admit he and Mrs. Obama are masters at wooing friends...and enemies. They have gathered around them a team that knows how to manipulate people, utilizing the Obama's personalities and current "star" attraction.
Learn from them and apply some of their techniques (of course, without any of the deceptiveness and destructiveness they're utilizing). They are playing the game of President and First Lady without traditional rules and are deceiving the majority of the people...and the world.
However, learn to use their techniques for GOOD and you'll be magnificent!
