Where Have You Gone George W. Bush?

When Barack Obama was elected the left celebrated as if it was a dawn of a new age. There were claims that we would have renewed respect in the world, a shift from the days where we were hated during the evil George W. Bush/Cheney regime. Some felt that so called "green jobs" would magically reign down from Washington and happy days would be here again. Well things haven"t quite worked out that way. Five years into Obama's Presidency our allies Germany, Brazil, and Israel among others are disgusted with us at the moment due to the NSA spying scandal. Brazil's President Dilma Roussef was so peeved that she canceled a planned state visit- I don't remember many of our allies canceling state visits during W's terms. Saudi Arabia's former ambassador announced recently that they will no longer favor the US in arms deals. Poland learned that the Obama administration favors its relationship with Putin over them. Our unemployment has hovered around 7.5% for several years and the Obamacare rollout has been an unmitigated disaster. How nice it would be to have a 5% unemployment rate as we did under Bush. And keeping with tradition, our flags are being burned in Muslim countries.

 As the financial industry shed jobs, the Justice Department continues to extract billions from it by way of massive lawsuits. Chase has agreed to pay $13B, Bank of America has been hit with a $6.8B settlement from the Federal Housing Finance Agency to settle allegations that it misled Fannie and Freddie during the housing crisis. The same financial industry that fed this President millions in donations during his 2008 campaign are now being bitten by him. Although Bush could have done more to reign in spending, This Presidency has many longing for the good old days. The days when blacks were actually doing better than they are currently under the nations first black President. The left convinced itself that the nation had a virus and electing Obama was the cure. After 5 years of race baiting and divisiveness, the only thing they've cured: is the country's desire for another black President.

The Legend Of The Unarmed White Man (Revised)

Image
The August 2014 shooting death of unarmed black teen Mike Brown in St. Louis by a white police officer and the subsequent decision by the grand jury not to indict has brought unrest to American Streets. The protestors feel that police are shooting and killing mostly unarmed black men at alarming rates. Many also believe that police interaction amongst white's is all together different due to the benefits of "white privilege". "If that had of been a white man..." is a common refrain from blacks when speaking of a negative experience with a white police officer. The media plays an integral role in these perceptions by continuously assaulting us with images of black victims and white perpetrators. In light of the Brown incident and other controversial shootings this year, the adjective attached to these perceived victims is "unarmed". The term is a staple in the lexicon of the American media which h...

BP Crisis Brings Out Radical Left

Image
Once again the left, with the help of Jesse Jackson shows its ignorance of and hatred for capitalism. The BP crisis which began with the explosion of an offshore oil rig which resulted in a fire that killed 19 people. The pipe located one mile undersea began to spew oil into the gulf and has for over fifty days now. The Reverend has been for weeks calling for a boycott of BP. Now comes word that several BP stations have been vandalized. The fact that such vitriol and anger results from what was clearly a tragic accident is surely tragic in itself. Someone should explain to the reverend that oil companies exited the gas station business years ago. The stations are by and large owned by franchisees and independent operators who squeeze out razor thin margins on gasoline-hence the reason for the lottery tickets, potato chips and soft drinks that has become a staple of these often family owned businesses. To make matters worse, the Rev. Jackson stated that "the mom and pop stations a...

Blacks Only Field Trip Revealing

A Michigan elementary school Principal took group of 5th grade students on a field trip to hear a speech by an African American rocket scientist. The only problem: he only took the black students. This incident for this blogger has much larger revelations other than the obvious. This Principal is the prototypical example of the dangers of a left wing education. A huge problem among blacks specifically is their ability to practice discrimination and segregation while simultaneously preaching "equality" and "inclusion". Dicken Elementary School Mike Madison took a group on black students, part of a group known as the African American Lunch Bunch to hear a black rocket scientist speak. The fact that there is such a group at a such a racially diverse school is troubling. Needless to say, the outrage would be manic if a white organization existed and engaged in the same exclusion of black students. In the black left wing mind, discrimination and racism are acceptable ...
