Obama and lack of leadership

Hi

This blog is about the complete lack of leadership on the part of President Obama. A blatant example is his inability to grasp the seriousness of the situation involving the Harvard professor and the Cambridge, Ma., policeman. A good leader would never have spoken on the subject but would have backed off using the acceptable explanation that at the time of the question, he(Obama) did not know all the facts. The entire matter blew up in his face.

A more serious example is his demeanor as President. One of the true traits of leadership is the understanding that the people who compromise "the flock" are the ones who are the true leaders. A good leader listens to the people being followed and merely acts as a helmsman and steers the ship of state. Instead of this, President Obama acts as if he is all knowing and tries to force his agenda on the people. During the presidential campaign the push was to vote early, why? It was done so the public would not have a chance to analyze his policies.

The stimulus package was pushed with the same urgency, "We must act fast or else the economy will go to h*** in a hand basket". Congress acted fast and it worsened the economy, (another case of screw the American public and reward the lobbyists). The cap and trade bill, ditto. Now the so called health care reform is being shoved down our throats. Would some one please explain to me how this is effective leadership?

It is our duty as Americans to speak out against these tactics and make our elected representatives know our feelings. If they choose to ignore us, then they must pay the price of ouster from office, nothing less.

Keep faith in America, we will weather this storm.

Pray for our brave warriors.
GOD Bless
