All of them bad.
They left out creating a civilian domestic paramilitary ‘security’ force for getting around Posse Comitatus.
They are treading carefully. None of the foreign policy or security decreases will cause a ruckus unless we are attacked again.
The rest of the stuff is a lot of spending with probably little returns.
Obama is inherently very cautious and with the fawning media, he will get a free pass his first 2 years.
*sigh*, I don’t know if the republicans can differentiate themselves especially with our leaders “forced” to be “bipartisan.”
Obama will do what the “powers that be” (Namely those who own MSM) want, to a large extent. After all, they basically own him since they put him there. I noticed a lot of news clips from strange places, Obama’s Indonesian madrasa, his Kenya Granny.
They no doubt have all the real goods on Obama documented and ready to use if Obama doesn’t obey their will.
It’s not government that runs this country, MSM does.
According to the Globe article, Obama promises a dramatic shift toward developing alternative energy, does he? Didn’t he also promise, in January, to use fines and penalties to bankrupt anyone who might attempt to build any new coal-fired electricity-generating plant? And as to immigration, also covered in teh article, will ‘Bammy be forced to deport his illegal-alien, deportation fugitive aunt, Zeituni Onyango, who, with the help of local community organizers, lives in a Boston “public housing estate”?
“Obama says he wants to eliminate the harsher sentencing guidelines for people convicted of crack cocaine crimes in relation to powder cocaine.”
Is obamination an addict?
FIRST he must make the human sacrifices to his god. FOCA first.
Talking about taxes. It is not just the repeal of the Bush Tax Cuts that will occur. The concept of removing the ceiling on income taxable by Social Security from the current 90K+ figure to infinitey. So a young Internist earning 200k is going to see SSI take a bite out of another 100K so another 6200+ in SSI. My guess is they will require that of Employers as well. That will be real good for a struggling company like Ford or GM. V. David Hanson noted the Marginal Rate number and it was scary (again I was interrupted).
Many dual or even single income professionals that voted in anger against the Bush years have no idea the financial $h!+ storm they rained upon themselves....
You forgot “Barack Obama plans to ban all semi-automatic rifles and all handguns within the first two weeks (the new NFA). He plans a $10,000 transfer tax on all sales of new NFA weapons made before 3/20/2009. Also, all concealed carry permits are made invalid.
This reminds me, a few nights before the election someone on here put together a list of maybe 10 things Obama was going to do if he won. I thought I’d saved it, but now can’t find it. Tried to search it, but since I don’t remember the thread in which it appeared, I’m having no luck....just wonder if anyone remembers it.
