Barack Obama the Cowardly

Friday, November 7th, 2008

Old Chicken was invited by Bush to sit in on the economic forum.  He turned it down as its a risk to his power. He wants to play out the rest of Bush’s term to burn up the monthes in between as he waits and hopes for recovery. He does not love this country he loves the power.

Say what you want about Bush he has not been afraid to take the slings and arrows.  In comparison Obama already looks small.   He does not want anything to diminish his precious.  In this lust for power the first symtoms of a gollum are betrayed.   Before its over he will regret this decision.  It is not going to be a short or mild recession.   The steps being taken by the politicians are just going to make things worse.  The market is trying to tell us something but we are not collectively listening yet.    So much like health issues that get ignored its going to fester.

From my personal point of view I am glad he is doing the hot potato routine.  It means less time for him to do anything.  Doing nothing is preferable to what he wants to do.  Indeed it is likely the best strategy.  It has gone beyond the limits of current understanding.  This however does not negate the fact Obama is a mirror gazing coward.

So here is what you are really going to get with a B.O. presidency:

  1. Distract you with the talk of the dog the family will get
  2. avoid responsibility as much as possible on the economy - when / if the economy comes back take credit
  3. try to get more bailout spending so he can direct it the way he wants

What is new about this?  Sounds just like every other democrat.  Worried about the baksheesh and not the country as a whole.
