The state of Union/smoke and mirrors/self worship…again

It is coming soon now, the ‘new and improved Obama.’ Aren’t you overwhelmed with relief? He now magically understands that the obsessive and draconian push on Health care reform is vividly unpopular, along with his pariah, cap and trade. However, does that mean with the ‘new and improved Obama’ we are to see that this obsession with health care and environmental controls stop?

Heavens no!!! If you want to have a clue, in between the ever so smooth speeches, new suits and empathy moments, what is really happening, read the book he taught Acorn workers from ‘Rules for Radicals’ by Saul Alinsky. More will be done in secret while he brushes hair off our face. Expect the following in the weeks ahead He will start by appealing to the middle class, fearing that the ground swell of the Tea Party folks and Independents against him need more attention and representation. He will promise tax cuts and spending freezes. The only problem with trying to appeal to the middle class with new and improved promises and devotion is that he has promised well before he was elected no tax increases and throughout his first year. Now the growing masses simply don’t trust him no matter how he says he will improve, listen or give a masterful speech. HE IS SIMPLY A LIAR.

He wants to tax banks and big business

Now, the new and improved Obama is talking with Gordon Brown about taxing banks. The only problem with this scheme is that the masses also understand more and more that taxing, banks and big business will only shred our economy and steal jobs all the more. It will also make banks pull back even further and flatten funding for businesses, needed investments and hark…..the middle class. Bankers have all stood together at a Swiss ski resort to stop the scatter-gun approach to new financial regulation. Obama is threatening to break up all kinds of banks. Big banking heads have warned of the imminent peril slamming regulations, huge taxes and controls on bankers and the economy.

Barclays Capital boss , bob Diamond said: “This is a time when isolated actions in the US and the UK are not beneficial” “Without risk we do not have a banking industry, Having banks willing to take risks, particularly cross-border risk is essential to economics.” The Standard Chartered chief executive , Peter Sands said: “the stakes are very high….If we get it wrong in one dimension, we will end up stifling growth. If we get it wrong in the other dimension we end up with another crisis.” The polls of potential re-election are down to 47% today according to Fox news. He would not be re elected today. He has to know that with the recent conservative sweeps in Virginian, New Jersey, Massachusetts and almost New York.

He can play to the middle class as long as he wants but his real legacy is lying to keep power and using manipulation and slight of hand as Saul Alinsky teaches. Will his empathic speech and ‘new Obama’ push strengthen support by the disappearing Independents and middle class? Marcia Kramer comments in her article on Obama’s plan to push toward rescuing the middle class….child care credits, student loans etc….

“Some say it’s an open admission to many here in the tri-state area that he has failed to feel our pain and our needs. From his war on the banks, the lifeblood of the metropolitan area economy, to his health care reform which could cost taxpayers here over 1 billion. President Obama’s policies have sent a strong message to the tri-state area that Washington doesn’t care about the middle class.”

Will this speech manipulate the Independents and middle class back in the polls? I say a big fat no. People of all kinds are waking up to his smooth and empathetic lies. Oh yes, to his endless self worship also. In just one speech Obama referred to himself 132 times. Prepare yourself for the new improved messiah of change and middle class empathy in the next few months. Believe the promises if you are a moron. Even I as a growing, national, big mouth, radio talk show host don’t refer to myself 132 times in a show.
