Both, neither. I don’t want Obama to succeed at his agenda, but I also don’t want the country to go through another 4 to 8 years of Carter style failure.
I don’t want hard times either. Trouble is, some people have to hit the bottom before they wake up and are willing to make changes. This country may have to go through some severe ugliness to make it start heading in the correct direction. The problem for Obama is not if he can actually solve anything. His dilemma is can he keep things afloat and give the illusion of everything being under control despite the big gash that’s in the hull of the ship. He will use every socialist trick to do that, but eventually things will come tumbling down. It’s just a matter of when, IMO.
I agree with you. I want him to succeed in keeping this country safe, and at getting us out of this economic mess we are in. I want him to succeed in creating jobs for those who need them. I don’t want him to succeed in raising taxes, at removing restrictions on abortion, at increasing social spending or at reducing the strength of our military. That doesn’t mean that I am optimistic that he will succeed. I just hope that he doesn’t do too much damage.
Exactly.
I want our country to get back on its feet and the economy get going again. We can deal with BHO fallout as long as he;’s limited to one term.
Elections have consequences, I hope all those who sat on their hands in November are happy.
