Barack Obama - Hope is Fading Fast

61

By dabeaner

The Barack Obama rise to power was due to a fantastic public relations campaign aka election campaign. Millions of young voters, female voters, and "minority" voters were captivated by his campaign propaganda about "hope and change".

Now that the dust has settled, we see that it is the "same old, same old".

So, while I am an Obama-basher, I would have been a McCain basher, just as I was a Bush-basher, Clinton-basher, Bush-basher... and on back past Lincoln, the traitor who cemented into place the corporate-warfare-welfare state.

There are so many ways that America has and is going wrong, you will just have to look for other pages and comments of mine, for example, this Hub about overpopulation is a major ecological problem.

I believe these days the president is just a figurehead, the real powers are faceless. When Paulson was asked to become sec of the treasury, he had to sell all his stock with Goldman Sachs, little know is he had a profit-(key word), of 200mil dollars. Of this he had to pay ZERO dollars in taxes because he was appointed a white house position. You and I on the other hand will be jailed if we don't claim $500.00. This is what our system has become.

rb11: Don't get me started. It is too easy to get me into "rant" mode about the hypocrisy of this commie-fascist government. I am TRYING to increase my ratio of money writing to this kind of stuff. But I am weak; I keep falling off the wagon.

Madame X: Glad to be of help.

There is a reason that businesses are not run as democracies - NOTHING would get done. Unfortunately our Congress does not get anything meaningful done either. My hope was that Mr. Obama would somehow be able to change that; to show some leadership; to make some changes..... So far the status quo has proven its resiliancy and we are still mired in the mud of partisan politics.

I long ago got very sick of politicians after working on two Republican campaigns. Ended up being a Democrat 16 years later. My bottom line is if a President leaves office and this country is worse off then when he assumed office, he failed. Partisan politics, status quo, herd mentality, greed, selfishness, corruption, on and on has led us into a mess. I am tired of having to choose between two evils when it comes to election time. I voted for Obama because soon as Palin was chosen it solidified my choice. I too hope for change from Obama but it has to be hard when all that is going on is back stabbing, finger pointing bs. How is anyone suppose to accomplish anything with the attitude that seems to be permeating around this country. I was called a communist by someone because I stated I was a moderate Democrat and that is just one incident. Respect for our fellow Americans seems to have been flushed down the proverbial toilet.

Hello mkott:

Thanks for the comment. Unfortunately, you have fallen prey to our rulers' strategy. One aspect of that is that each President WILL leave the country worse off than before. BY DESIGN. So some people then vote for the other party candidate with a mistaken belief they are voting for hope and change. By distracting you with partisan politics, the rulers are free to advance their agenda.

The rulers are NOT Bush Jr. or Obama; they are just spokeshole puppets. The rulers allow them to promote their hobby agendas -- e.g., saving the fetuses and guns (conservatives), saving the illegals and tortoises (liberals). Those pet projects have nothing to do with the rulers' agenda.

In case you didn't know, your rulers are behind the scenes. They are the owners of the banking systems and the large international corporations.

Why did the Media keep so quiet about the secret Meeting between Obama and the Carlyle Group? Obama is nothing more than a spokesperson for Bankers. He spews lie after lie masked in his pretend agenda while the remainder of the Worlds Assets Change ownership to the Bankers.

Every part of his agenda is being forced through with no bipartisan support. Which really doesn't matter it's just another guise. The Republicans are doing absolutely nothing but pandering to the people in a different way.

Obama is giving Banks your money, your homes, your assets all the while he smiles and idiots just keep soaking in the lies.

Nothing Obama has said he would do is being done. CitiGroup has "helped" less than 400 people out of the 100,000 that have applied for mortgage help under the "Obama Plan". But they did take one hell of a lot of free money under the program.

When Team Obama comes knocking at your Door with their Proposal to strip you of your 2nd Amendment rights you might want to consider what Hitler did to the Jews.

I didn't drink the cool-aid but I suspect many who did are wishing they could spit it out now.

There are signs that seeds of all-out revolution are being planted. I welcome this. Government is so incredibly bloated. Our deficit is pathetic. Term limits for congress is one place to start, but anybody who runs on term limits changes their mind when they get into office.

It's gloves off for me from now on. I would rather have Ted Nugent in office than anyone I can think of. Big Government, leave me the hell alone. You can only have your hand in our wallets for so long before we chew the damn thing off.

If you voted for Obama, I think you're a dumbass. You have no discernment. McCain was not much better, but he WAS better. At least he had the character to survive the POW experience. Obama is literally not qualified or capable of running a Home Depot. Perhaps he could run a 7-11. If he wasn't such a narcissist, I think he would admit that he is way over his head. He is surrounded by idiots. Biden makes Quayle look like Einstein. I could go on, but I want to sleep tonight and thinking about the reality of Obama in the White House makes me restless. And for those of you who would imply I'm a racist, listen closely....Kiss my ass!

All politicians are full of crap. I just read your post http://hubpages.com/hub/america-what-went-wrong-th and I enjoyed it and agreed with over half of what you said. I think corporations are the new kings and queens and credit cards are our vouchers into indentured servitude. The only real solution is to eliminate corruption from politics by making them servants to the people and taking away their ability to profit off "we the people."

Stan, tell me what you REALLY think. ;-)

John and Stan. All we can do is rant. We are outgunned (courtesy of taxpayer funds) and outmanned (because most people are dependent on the state, one way or the other).

There will be no electoral revolution. A total collapse is the only thing that will cause a "reset". Then, out of the chaos, another "effed up" system will most likely arise, since most people are both stupid and ignorant.

The American Revolution and establishment of the U.S. was an historical anomaly due to a combination of factors -- geographical, political, philosophical, technological -- unlikely to ever be repeated. Sorry about that. I think I'll rent the movie "Cabaret".

maybe if the Obama stops wasting time with pointless speeches and congress stops focusing on pointless issues than maybe this nation can be on the road to recovery
