Didn't Obama say he was going to focus on jobs and the economy? While the rest of the nation is suffering in the Obama never ending recession our president is out tooling around the nation doing the only thing he knows how. Selling himself and his agenda and blaming and bashing the Republican Party for everything. All this community organizer can do is campaign and try and tell us that things aren't as bad as they seem. He can't run on his record or the promises he made the last time he ran for president.
This country has gone down hill fast since the president took office and he hasn't done anything to fix the fast dropping economy but talk a good game. I don't care how inept he has been but to just run and hide isn't presidential at all. If he wants to save America then he needs to be present in
Washington. Giving a hard sell to the American people while waisting our money isn't going to fix anything and he knows it. All this bus tour is is an early campaign paid for by the American people. Is that all we expect from a president? Is him getting a second term more important then fixing the economy and lowering our national debt?
The reason why Obama is taking this early campaign tour is so that he can hard sell his lack of results presidency. He knows that the economy is screwed for long after the next person gets into office and that is why he is trying to blow smoke up the American peoples butts. The hard sell and more empty promises of better times in the future are all he has. He doesn't have a plan to create jobs other then more of the same tax and tariff American businesses and spend even more money as if the debt was not a big deal all ready.
This bus tour is his last hope. He has lost 14% among black voters. Independents are running away from him in droves and most Americans know that he has put America on the wrong course. For Obama to save his presidency he needs to con the American people into thinking that this economy is the Republicans and Tea Parties fault. He will keep blaming the Republicans even though they just have control of 1/2 of 1/3 of the government. The Democratic Party had total control of all 3 branches of government for over 2 years as well as controlling both Houses of Congress in the last 2 years of the Bush presidency. But that can't stop Obama from community organizing his way out of this mess he and the Democratic Party made.
Americans are getting sick and tired of talk and promises of better times in the future. We know that the best times are in our past and that the Democratic Party had the power and they used it to lower the classes. The Democratic Party want more poor and fewer people paying taxes. It serves them and their buying of votes for longer unemployment. Americans don't want handouts for votes. We want the government to get out of the way and grow like TX has done. We don't want more of the same big spending theories. We want what has worked in other States and Countries. We want private sector growth.
President Obama is barnstorming the heartland to boost US jobs in a taxpayer-financed luxury bus the government had custom built -- in Canada.
