It's time for America to lead again? |
paraclete |
02/25/09 |
So Omama thinks that more of the same is a good recipe. The rest of us say it's time for America to get out of the way and let someoneelse lead for a change. Let's ask ourselves, where have they led us excepting down a dirty great hole?
They led us into a war in Iraq and where did that get us, I see devalued currency and high fuel prices and a ruptured economy.
They led us into a banking free for all which under the guise of providing homes for more people actually made more people destitute.
Now after years of sticking their head in the sand they want to lead us into an ecologically sustainable future. What I say is not on your nelly, we don't want solutions which are good for American business. So they invented solar energy, did they? They only deploy it when it suits them. We don't need a corn led recovery Mr. Obama, we need America to dismantle it's military industrial complex and find peaceful industries and stop selling arms to the world, Then we might believe you |
Clarification/Follow-up by labman on 02/27/09 6:30 am: ''Omama'' I just noticed that. Was it a typo or did you mean something? You may insult him without upsetting me. Clarification/Follow-up by paraclete on 03/01/09 6:50 am: No it's just a typo, if I wanted to insult him I would find another way, like calling him Hussein.
The fellow has a very mixed background, that might be a plus, giving the US a President who can understand something other than America, or it may colour his thinking, and stop him from really seeing the big picture in a world that must look beyond racial equality issues so common in the US.
I like the fact that Pakistan is solving it's own problems shortly after Obama made reference to fixing them. American solutions for America and local solutions for everyoneelse is a good recipe for international relations. Now I know their solution isn't necessarily what the US might want but they have to live there not Obama
