Are We to Become the Next Political Whores?

When Mary Landrieu's vote was bought and paid for, freedom-loving and principled people near Louisiana were angry but not surprised. Louisiana's political history is full of corrupted politicians, more so than just about any other state, except for perhaps Illinois.

When Ben Nelson's vote was bought and paid for, people were so angry, even his fellow Nebraskans, booed him out of a pizza parlor (that's Texan for a pizza restaurant).

Then came the State of the Union Address. What a joke. He is always campaigning, always selling his propaganda, always thinking his got it right again. Always wrong. Obama can't seem to grasp the idea that he won the election because people didn't know him and they believed him, but now, they DO know him and they DON'T believe him any longer.

Nile Gardiner wrote in his Jan. 28th article, "State of the Union: Barack Obama gets and F for world leadership":

"Barack Obama...focused heavily on the economy and the domestic political agenda. This was hardly surprising in the aftermath of last week’s catastrophic defeat for his party in the Massachusetts special Senate election... American voters are turning strongly against the president’s health care reform package as well as his big government vision for the economy, which has contributed to spiraling public debt and mounting unemployment, now standing at over 10 percent. ....President Obama displayed what can only be described as a stunning indifference towards the defence of the homeland. .. I cannot think of a US president in modern times who has attached less importance to human rights issues. ...He has sacrificed the projection of American power upon the altar of political vanity, with empty speeches and groveling apologies across the world, from Strasbourg to Cairo..."

To Mr. Gardiner and others who are slowly awakening to the reality of just who and what America voted into office, I say, there is more to come.

And his State of the Union speech has revealed as much.

He spoke of pumping money in the education program, the student loan program, the lending programs and cutting spending at the same time. As an old western movie line goes, "Paleface speaks with a forked tongue." Well, part of it is right.

So, who are the next people to be bought off? Who will be the next political whore we can point to as being more interested in the payoff than in the principle of maintaining a free America and stopping Obama's dead run into a Socialistic transformation?

It will be the American people themselves. They can't see that Obama is attempting to blind them with the money. He has taken over the auto industry, the banking industry, his policies have caused the loss of jobs faster than any single event in American history and is attempting to take over the Health Care industry. He knows the American people are all that stand in his way of accomplishing the total and complete "fundamental transformation of America". So now he is trying to buy them as well and given the number of people who have lost their jobs and NEED help, they may have no choice.

We are to become the next political whores, accepting the money in exchange for the principle, because the principle won't feed our families or pay the mortgage.
