Create vs. Keep: The Malfeasance of Socialist Change

Posted by guest blogger Locutisprime and cross posted at The Borg Perspective.

 CHICAGO -- President-elect Barack Obama said Saturday he's asked his economic team for a recovery plan that saves or creates more than 2 million jobs, makes public buildings more energy-efficient and invests in the country's roads and schools.

"We won't just throw money at the problem," Obama said in his weekly radio address and Internet video. "We'll measure progress by the reforms we make and the results we achieve -- by the jobs we create, by the energy we save, by whether America is more competitive in the world."

    Obama's remarks come after the Labor Department announced Friday that employers cut 533,000 jobs in November, the most in 34 years.

Obama: 'We Won't Just Throw Money at the Problem'

Well isn't that comforting. The "messianic one" isn't going to just throw money at the problem. Could that possibly be due to the fact that the only one who currently seems to have any money is Barack Obama?  It's strange I suppose, I remember a few weeks back? When America was being told by the messianic one that better times were on the way.  All that was needed from the people was a collective gasp of ecstasy over the one and a collective vote for change.

All we supposedly needed was change and the candy man from the south side of Chicago was the only one who could manage it for us. We were told how no American making less that a quarter of a million dollars would be touched or harmed by Obama's taxation plans. That was revised to $200,000 by Obama himself the week before the election and some of his surrogates like Joe Biden even openly admitted that it was more like $150,000 in truth.

And the same has become true of his jobs proposals it would seem. we have now apparently revised the previous estimates and campaign promises.  During the campaign? Obama promised the creation of 2.5 million "new jobs." Now? He is saying that he intends to "maintain" at least 200,000 jobs. Maintain? That would mean an attempt to maintain, keep, prevent from loss, hold as static or simply not lose those that now exist?  Ahat happened to the 2.5 million jobs to be created by the messianic one? I guess those fell by the way side like so much more of the one's promises to the blind and stupid.

Now? Obama wants to "measure progress" by the "reforms" that he institutes. And the big institution that he intends to implement? None other than a "new New Deal." That is if anyone is paying attention. The old new deal centered on public works programs and infrastructure improvements. So I guess in the present day socialist mind? If it seemed to have worked once? Then it ought to work again. The only problem is, it didn't work the first time if anyone bothered to look at the history and the facts of the first new deal. It wasn't FDR's grandiose new deal that pulled America out of the great depression. It was world war two. And in all probability based upon the known history that now exists on the topic? WWII was in all probability FDR's fall back position of economic recovery, due to the failure of his new deal proposals of the previous seven years to do a damn thing but perpetuate and worsen the condition.

And now once again? The modern day incarnations of socialism want to revisit the historically failed and attempt to make the sell that it really can be made to work. All that is required apparently is the right leader. Someone not necessarily of experience and direct hands on knowledge, but someone more of a visionary. Someone who can stand on the mountain top and see across to the other side. The promised land is out there, you just have to have the prophetic ability to both see the future and converse with the almighty to accomplish the representation to the people.

Which would seem to leave us with three potential individuals capable of accomplishing that task. The first "Moses" has been dead for around 4000 years. So he is out. Stephen the crazy Irishman from the movie Braveheart? Well he was certainly entertaining, but he was after all an actor portraying a character who conversed with the almighty.

So that would seem to leave us with the Obama messiah. Or as I prefer to reference him, the "messianic one." Lower case noted, as unless and until he performs miracles or receives direct character support and special dispensations from the almighty himself? Then the title of messiah has not been convincingly consummated as genuine IMO.

Therefore, I say let the games begin. Oh....I forgot. The games have already begun. And all that we are doing right now is awaiting the blessings of "the one" that we entrusted our future to, based upon lies and half truths and an American Idol popularity contest election.

I don't know about everyone else? But I believe that there has got to be a better way of choosing presidents and the ultimate fate of this nation, than text messaging our desires to an omipresent and impotent government or media propelled popularity contest.
