The real Obama emerges

Well, it is time to say the end is truly near. The end of this presidency which came to being because a man with little experience thought he could be a shining star to many who needed to see an example that they could count on.
This is the end of any belief in me that this president is any different from most that have come before him. He has sold us all out and not given it a moment's thought. As my brilliant wife pointed out, the troops will be coming home in time for the next election. When I asked her how did she know that, she said it is just elementary politics 101. She is right.
He will not get away with this one though. Too many people now are finally and fully disgusted with the entire charade. The too handsome president with the gift of gab has now put the words so far down our throats that we can no longer breathe.
I do not want to be dazzled or preached to, I want a just leader who understands the real concerns of Americans at this moment.
People have no jobs and if they do have one, they are terrified of what will happen if or when they lose it. Those ready to retire and exhausted from slave labor, are too scared to stop working for fear of losing everything when the bottom falls out again. And most likely it will.
What Obama has done is delude himself, believed his own hype and that is dangerous and now he has become trapped by his own glibness.
It is too bad that he threw away what could have been a real reversal of all the damage the prior administration did to this nation. Now we are just going to continue down that perilous slope until we all fall off.
I wish he really had a unique and caring vision of what this nation could be. Instead he is just like any other suit that wants a job and power. Shame on you Obama.
