No, I'm not talking about George Bush. I'm talking about Barack Obama. We are about a week into the 44th president's administration, and I am far from impressed (surprised, surprised). I don't want to ramble on too much, but let's go down a quick list here. At times, I will directly address our chief executive.
1. He issued an executive order to close Guantanamo Bay. Okay, that's fine as long as there are certain conditions. And the main one is THAT YOU HAVE A PLACE TO TRANSFER THEM TO, IDIOT! You campaigned for almost two years and campaigned on the idea of closing the place down. So why in the HELL did you not have a backup place????
2. Obama, who is supposed to be the one to usher in a new era of bipartisanship in Washington said that Republicans "shouldn't be listening to Rush Limbaugh and expect to get anything done." He also told republican lawmakers "I won. I'm the President." Good ole bipartisanship there for you.
3. He wants to cure the economic crisis and the huge debt by SPENDING MORE MONEY!
4. He's supposed to have a transparent government with no lobbyists in his administration. And yet, he has a deputy defense secretary who has lobbied big time in the past. He didn't allow cameras to see him sign the executive order to give federal funding to international charities that provide abortion services. And he has grown irritated with reporters that ask him tough questions.
Hypocrite anyone? Arrogant ass? I know it's early, but it is certainly not hopeful, and there sure isn't much change, at least good change.
