Obama Fails We All Fail

Make no mistake, Reps want our country to fail when they state that "they want Obama to fail" but I have news for them: because of Bush/Reps we are failing now! Our policies have been failing and Reps have been in charge the last eight years! Obama has been in office for two months!

Change is difficult. It will take time to get the economy back on track (the DOW has roughly gained 1000 points in the last three weeks), and Obama is taking an aggressive approach to fix some very difficult problems, but do people really want Obama's policies to fail?

Here are some quotes in the last few day from some noted Reps, and let's not forget that Rush Limbaugh started all of this by emphatically shouting to anyone and everyone who would listen, "Yes, I want Obama to fail!"

Former Rep Presidential candidate Fred Thompson this morning on CNN, "I WANT HIS POLICIES THAT I BELIEVE TAKE US IN THE WRONG DIRECTION TO FAIL."

Rep Bobby Jindal Louisiana Governor reacted to the issue of Reps wanting our President, and our country to fail like this... "My answer to the question is very simple: 'Do you want the president to fail?' It depends on what he is trying to do."

I don't ever remember any public figure of merit saying they wanted Bush to fail, many, many Americans disagreed yes and many times vigorously, and did not like Bush's policies, but to outright want our country to fail? No, and Republicans should know better that they will be attacked and questioned when they make these stupid, silly statements.

There was an election and Obama won. Now it's up to our legislators who represent us, to negotiate with the new administration on the many important and serious issues that face our country, and how to approach them.

But is anyone surprised that Obama is approaching these issues in a different manner, a new approach, I mean he's taking on "the Teacher's Union" and he wants to reform health care, implement new energy technologies, and approach tax policies differently. But so Reps really want this administration or its policies to fail? Shame on Republicans for taking this tone. But let's not forget that many Reps were calling everyday Americans anti-American for exercising their civil right to protest when Bush was in office. How hypocritical and anti-American is that?
