I miss the George Bush presidency

 

I miss the George Bush presidency. Now, don’t jump down my throat, there was a great deal about President Bush’s rhetoric, policy and actions that I felt was just plain wrong. What is miss is, at least until near the end of his presidency, you knew where everyone stood. The liberals and Democrats hated anything related to Bush; the right and Republicans loved (almost) everything.

So now we have a (very) liberal Democratic president and everything is up in the air. Just a few recent examples:

 “A narrow counterterrorism mission sounds like a win-win. One problem: It won’t work.” on Afghanistan, from USA Today (usually part of the OMN – Obama Media Network)

“Lots of People Love Obama, But Does Anyone in the World Really Fear Him?” from The Australian, a country not generally inclined to be pro-Bush.

“President is beginning to look out of his depth.” from London’s conservative but usually pro-American The Daily Telegraph.

“There was, however, one large gap. Mr. Obama said almost nothing about Afghanistan, which just a month ago he called a ‘war of necessity,’ fundamental to American security and to the broader fight against terrorism.” from the flagship of the OMN, The New York Times.

 

“The Obama Administration plans to give $400,000 in funding to a Libyan charity run by the Gadhafi family…” from CBS, another OMN affiliate.

What will become of America if the liberal media ever so slightly does not tow the complete liberal line?

Obama and Blagojevich

 

President-elect Barack Obama and his relationship with Illinois governor Rod Blagojevich is the subject of a great deal of discussion. I for one think that most of the Republican and conservative voices should be silent on the issue. Let the United States Attorney’s office in the Northern District of Illinois handle the case and show faith that, if the trail leads to Mr. Barack Obama, Patrick Fitzgerald will take all possible legal action.

Even with the liberal media bias is favor of Mr. Obama, you can be sure that enough people will be looking to break the story that Mr. Obama had some real involvement in the scandal. No doubt right now there are people digging in Illinois for any proof.

But, until someone has proof that Mr. Fitzgerald is not doing his job as it regards Mr. Obama, let the system move forward.

In the period between the presidential election and inauguration, Americans want to feel good about their future president; they have high hopes for a new beginning. All Republican and conservatives gain by using rhetoric to tie Mr. Obama to Mr. Blagojevich is the enmity of the American people.
