Dear President Obama, Posted on 06/04/2010 2:43:56 PM PDT by mlizzy
Dear President Obama,
Every citizen with a modicum of insight into public affairs would say that America is now at a crossroads of decision about what kind of future we want for our nation-and, by extension, for the rest of the world. Whether we like it or not, you are the one who is designated by a vote of the electorate to lead us in that decision-making process. You have asked for the job, and you have proposed yourself as being competent for it. History will judge your Administration on its own merits when your term is complete, but we, the citizens of this country, must judge it for what we see happening before our very eyes. Quite frankly, the picture isn't pretty, and you haven't earned our respect as a leader.
The reason for this, Mr. President, is that we can't believe what you say, and frankly, what you do is utterly unbelievable at times.
The recent Gulf Coast oil spill disaster is indicative of your utter carelessness with the onerous burden of governance. Not only did you dis the families of the 11 workers killed in the disaster, but you also attended fundraisers in CA, a trip to the golf course and several state parties in the White House during the whole time the Governor of Louisiana has been screaming frantically for your attention. How can you expect us to believe that you were actually "in charge" of handling the disaster? In six weeks we have seen hardly a shred of evidence to convince us of that. A leader who says he is in charge of something and then conducts a systematic campaign of blaming, dodging, obfuscating, ignoring and even now prosecuting the others involved - instead of fixing the problem - will hardly go down in the record books as the savior he proposed himself to be when he was elected. You are the Commander-in-Chief who has gone AWOL on a truly national crisis.
On top of all that, you basically blew off a sacred national holiday, Memorial Day, for the sake of a vacation to gangsterland. That slap in the face to our military men and women was not lost on anyone, nor was the narcissistic disregard for American history or anything other than what fits your extreme political agenda. These are appalling traits for the one who holds the highest political office in our land, and only a fawning and dishonest media allows you to get away with this negligence in office.
Speaking of which, what are we to make of your pathetic excuse for the crime of attempting to bribe Congressman Sestak to bow out of the Senate race against Arlen Specter? Do you really think Americans believe the utterly implausible story about offering him a "non-paying" position on some presidential panel? Your Administration's explanation, issued on the afternoon of a holiday weekend, rings hollow, and everyone knows it. "Hollow" is an adequate word to describe your Administration, your political theatre and your rhetoric. Even some of your staunchest ideological supporters admit that it is getting increasingly hard to believe that you mean anything you say.
In the midst of all this domestic incompetence and dishonesty, we have seen no realistic response to North Korean, Iranian or Turkish aggression on the world scene. Foreign politicians know you are a leftist lightweight, and so we can expect more of the same from the rogue nations of the world, further destabilizing the security of our nation and the world. We have, however, seen you and your inept band of political marauders pander to foreign dictators and exploit the Mexican President to abuse us and our national deliberations on serious issues. We have seen your ideological hacks take over whole industries, plunder the private sector, abuse the good will of states and consume sound American institutions as if they were your enemies and with a ferocity that would befit only those who we would call our true national enemies.
Like the Gulf oil spill, your Administration is out of control, and every day is another step closer to disaster. As the oil continues to pollute, kill and damage the external beauty and economy of a whole region, you and your team are doing the same with the trust of the people who built this great country.
We deserve better, Mr. President, and it's time you start doing your job.
Sincerely,
Rev. Thomas J. Euteneuer
President, Human Life International
Well said, ping.
Hell, most dims, 'independents' and RINOs who voted for him are just as effective as he is.

Churches want to fill the pews...but I will not support the clergy if they buy what Pelosi is attempting to sell to the clergy. The clergy had better maintain separation of church and state and make the socialists in the White House aware of this, and they must not cooperate in any way with what Pelosi is proposing...and they had better not touch the money she is dangling. Pray for us all.
YOU NAILED IT. Socialists/etc. will not give up and must be eliminated. Like a rabid dog with a bone, socialists will die fighting for the cause.
OUR CAUSE IS GREAT, AND WE HAD BETTER REALIZE AND BE PREPARED TO DESTROY THEM BEFORE THEY DESTROY US. FACE YOUR FEARS, STRAIGHTEN YOUR SPINE AND FIND THE COURAGE WITHIN YOURSELF TO FIGHT THIS DAMN ENEMY WITHIN UNTIL THEY ARE ELIMINATED. WE’RE AMERICANS, FOR GOD’S SAKE, AND WE MUST DO IT. LET’S ROLL.
Let her believe that. I'm sure that the NRA and the city/state/county will appreciate the support.
Awesome article. I’m sending this to friends and family.
Obama = turd
I'm sure you all heard, but on Memorial Day, his speech wasn't just rained out. It was like this torrential downpour.
Mr. RK and I were at the batting cages (don't judge) not that far from where he was supposed to appear and it was a pretty nice morning. We started hearing thunder at least 40 minutes before it started raining or even looked like rain. The wind started to pick up and we left. On the way home, it started raining those big, fat, hard rain drops. We were at an intersection and the clouds were disturbingly low (the kind that turn into funnel clouds). It started raining so hard that we could hardly see even with the wipers on high. Then the thunder was even worse, but there wasn't that much lightning. I said, "Let's sit in the car. When it rains hard like this, it never rains for long." Yeah, I was wrong.
After 10 minutes of just sitting there, it didn't lighten up at all. We ran to the door (all of about 10 feet) and were drenched when we made it inside. It rained like that for at least 30-40 minutes. It was so hard, I though frogs or locusts would be next.
If I were a superstitious person, I might think that it might have something do with how he chose to blow off our war heroes....
Retro!!! {{{{{{HUGS}}}}}}
That was a pretty eerie report. There seem to be alot of signs lately that we are in big trouble. It seems the whole world has gone mad. The media has been given their marching orders to protect Obama at all costs..even if it creates a dead zone in the entire gulf coast for decades to come. It’s like living in Soviet Russia!
‘We don’t believe you.’ Telling the Truth is a Christian value. Those who don’t hold Christian values can justify to themselves that the ends justify the means, that telling a lie for a greater good is ok.
And they do.
That's a good one! And what, pray tell, has happened to all the transparency we were promised?
Hey there! Yeah, it was eerie for sure. The thunder before the rain was so weird. It was about 10:30-11ish so we thought maybe it was some reenactors in a parade or a canon going off or something. One of my facebook friends went out there and has pictures of the crowd lining up and there is no hint of the storm coming.
With regards to the gulf, I keep thinking of if this happened when GWB was in office. People would be screaming and protesting. Shepard Smith, Geraldo and Rachel Maddow would be live knee deep in oil, showing us dead animals washing up on the beach and oil covered flowers. But with Obama it’s like, “Oh it’s OK. He’ll get to it when he can.”
I saw Madcow knee deep in oil the other night, doing her best to promote the Obama talking points about the ‘evil’ oil companies..blah,blah,blah. That channel is nothing more than agitprop for the American marxist president.
To whom? Which priests?
Sorry , I didn’t save the link, if I see it again, will send it to you. It was also on the late new’s (t.v.). I have a number of relatives in the South,boy are they pissed at obama over his lack of responce.
To me, by Catholic priests.
Like most Catholics, I don’t want a theocracy but if that is the alternative to Obama’s fuhrership, I’ll take it.
