Thanks to Doug
This was forwarded to me, but I have long been a fan of Dr. Charles Krauthammer for getting to the point and conveying it well...I enjoy his regular appearances on FoxNews...HUSTUSA
Here is his resume from Wikipedia:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_Krauthammer
A summary of his comments:
1. Mr. Obama is a very intellectual, charming individual. He is not to be underestimated. He is a cool customer who doesn't show his emotions. It's very hard to know what's behind the mask. Taking down theClinton Clintons
2. Obama has political skills comparable to Reagan and Clinton. He hasa way of making you think he's on your side, agreeing with yourposition, while doing the opposite. Pay no attention to what he SAYS;rather, watch what he DOES!
3. Obama has a ruthless quest for power. He did not come toWashington USA Great Britain Canada
4. His three main goals are to control ENERGY, PUBLIC EDUCATION, &NATIONAL HEALTH CARE by the Federal government. He doesn't care aboutthe auto or financial services industries, but got them as an earlybonus. The cap and trade will add costs to everything and stiflegrowth. Paying for FREE college education is his goal. Most scaryis his health care program, because if you make it FREE and add46,000,000 people to a Medicare-type single-payer system, the costswill go through the roof. The only way to control costs is with massiveRATIONING of services, like inCanada
5. He issurrounded himself with mostly far-left academic types. No one aroundhim has ever even run a candy store. But they're going to try and runthe auto, financial, banking and other industries. This obviously can'twork in the long run. Obama's not a socialist; rather he's a far-leftsecular progressive bent on nothing short of revolution. He ran as amoderate, but will govern from the hard left. Again, watch what hedoes, not what he says.
6. Obama doesn't really see himself as President of theUnited States
7. He's now handing out goodies. He hopes that the bill (and pain) willnot come due until after he's re-elected in 2012. He'd like to blameall problems on Bush from the past, and hopefully his successor in thefuture. He has a huge ego, and Mr. Krauthammer believes he is anarcissist.
8. Republicans are in the wilderness for a while,but will emerge strong. We're pining for another Reagan, but there'llnever be another like him. Krauthammer believes Mitt Romney, TimPawlenty & Bobby Jindahl (except for his terrible speech inFebruary) are the future of the party. Newt Gingrich is brilliant, buthas baggage. Sarah Palin is sincere and intelligent, but needs toreally be seriously boning up on facts and info if she's to be aserious candidate in the future. We need to return to the party oflower taxes, smaller government, personal responsibility, strongnational defense, and states' rights.
9. The current level ofspending is irresponsible and outrageous. We're spending trillions thatwe don't have. This could lead to hyper inflation, depression orworse. No country has ever spent themselves into prosperity. The mediais giving Obama, Reid and Pelosi a pass because they love theiragenda. But eventually the bill will come due and people will realizethe huge bailouts didn't work, nor will the stimulus package. Thesewere trillion-dollar payoffs to Obama's allies, unions and the Congressto placate the left, so he can get support for #4 above.
10.The election was over in mid-September when Lehman brothers failed.fear and panic swept in, we had an unpopular President, and the war wasgrinding on indefinitely without a clear outcome. The people are inpain, and the mantra of change caused people to act emotionally. AnyDem. would have won this election; it was surprising is was as close asit was.
11. In 2012, if the unemployment rate is over 10%,Republicans will be swept back into power. If it's under 8%, the Dems.continue to roll. If it's between 8-10%, it'll be a dogfight. It'llall be about the economy.
I hope this gets you really thinkingabout what's happening in Washington and Congress. There's a left-wingrevolution going on, according to Krauthammer, and he encourages us tokeep the faith and join the loyal resistance. The work will be hard,but we're right on most issues and can reclaim our country, before it'sfar too late.
