THE b.o. SCORECARD THUS FAR - PARTIAL LIST

b.o. Administration achievements thus far:

US economy – financial entities continue to tank – as yet no bottom in sight
Higher taxes, diminution of incentives to capital producers
Pronouncements of gloom and doom
Comparison of self to the likes of Lincoln and Washington and Reagan and FDR
Carbon taxation plans which would make coal power sources more expensive whilst subsidizing the poor who must use them
Diplomatic humiliations – Russia and Syria
Confusing, inconsistent signals being sent to Israel
White House confrontation with a radio talk show host
national dem zeal to take on a radio talk show rather than really defend and address issues –
Panic, misdirection, and lack of oversight in deployment of massive Stimulus/bailout funds
Laundry lists of promises w/o benefit of funding proposals sufficient to pay the bills
An ever growing list of taxpayers who will be called upon to pay the nation’s Stimulus bills
Virtual total lack of confidence in the financial markets in any of b.o.’s so-called plans
The very common people who elected b.o. continue to have confidence in their chosen one – few experiencing any feelings of doubt

Now, the list could go on…
You could probably create a much longer one….
I invite you to do so…

At this moment, it is hard to see any positive results, any confidence, any evidence that the great one’s plans are worth more than a pile of you know what.
