Criticism Shows Obama Is Losing Focus
By Michael Barone
We've been hearing a lot of criticism of Barack Obama in recent days from pro-Obama corners -- from celebrity investor Warren Buffett, from moderate conservative columnist David Brooks, from one of the Democratic Party's deepest thinkers, William Galston -- all along the same lines. Put aside your plans, announced in your budget, for national health insurance, for a cap-and-trade system to reduce greenhouse gases, for effectively abolishing the secret ballot in unionization elections. And, they might have added, for higher taxes on, and a reduction in, their charitable deductions to channel money away from charities and nonprofits and toward the government. Pay attention to the first thing on your platter and the nation's, Buffett and Brooks and Galston say: the financial crisis.

Also, from the article...
It is religion that asks for repentance and offers rituals for atonement; science suggests ways we can adapt and cope with change. It makes sense to understand how the physical environment may be damaged by changes in climate and to prepare for repairs that may be needed, and we are already doing that.
It makes no sense to cripple a struggling economy in order to prevent damage that may or may not occur many years from now.
Voters seem to understand that. Gallup reports that 60 percent of Americans say global warming will not pose a serious threat to them or their way of life in their lifetimes. Or as Stuart Taylor, another moderate critic of the Obama budget, puts it,
when your house is on fire, you don't water the lawn.

I don't think CommieBama ever had any
focus to begin with, other than marking off the last 16 year liberal "to do" list.
This squirrel doesn't care about America, or being President...he only cares about attention and adoration by his koolaid drinking followers.
His agenda is not against the rich, it's against the rich, conservative whites. They're going after our jobs, our inheritances, our homes and our children...and we're just sittin' here, like bumps on a stump.
I never thought I'd see the day when a Kenyan and a ragtag insurgence bunch like ACORN would overtake our country and turn it into a hellhole.
I guess some Americans will finally wake up when they line us up by a ditch and shoot us.
