The Big Hiss
The honeymoon was over before it started.
The market has made known its feelings about an Obama
presidency. Can you hear the Big Hiss? Yesterday was the first “up”
day since the election results were announced. We’ll see if the
market can sustain its feeble attempt at optimism for at least one
day. Since the MSM and Democrats are always so quick to blame Bush
and “8 failed years” for any market movement, me, my retirement
account and I, wish to heartily blame the incoming administration
the over 10% additional loss in market value - just since the
election! At this rate, taking out what few dollars I have left and
stowing them under the mattress looks pretty good!
I’m not the only one seeing cracks in Obama’s shiny finish
already - before he even sits in the Oval Office. Stephen Green has
a great article up at PJM on Obama’s Very
Bad Start. Go read the whole thing.
It seems like our president-elect is keeping himself
busy picking unnecessary fights.
To me, it appears that Obama is having trouble keeping the lid
on his true colors. He needs to learn as POTUS, his responsibility
is now the American people. All of them, not just his
base. If he can’t wrap his Harvard-educated brain around that, then
we are in big trouble.
True, the Republicans did blow the election for many, many
reasons that won’t be covered here. Those reasons are covered by
others with more insight than me. The Washington shark tank has
lost touch with reality. And its constituents. And the founding
principles of this country. And even its neighbors and allies.
As Stephen said
So it’s true — Obama really is bringing people
together. He’s bringing them together … against Barack Obama. While
it’s true that Republicans got off on the wrong foot this week and
last, so did Obama. And if he keeps it up, then the Republicans
might not be the minority party for too very much
longer.
Many grassroot initiatives are beginning even now. Stay tuned
for more.
