Team Obama is Out to Set Records!

Team Obama, lead by the "Magic-man" himself, is batting a big ZERO for his administration. Remember when the arrogant one stood in front of the cameras (teleprompter included) and proclaimed that his administration had done more in four months than any other administration since FDR? Let us count the swings and misses for Obama's administration.

Let us remember the so-called economic stimulus package that Obama wanted to be rushed through Congress. You remember? The package that nobody in Congress took the time to read because Team Captain Obama gave a pep-rally type speech about how if we waited, the economy would become worse and unemployment rates would continue to grow.

STRIKE ONE. Since Obama has been in office, the economy has lost more than 1.6 million jobs since the Democrats in Congress approved the failed stimulus package that has only stimulated anger amongst taxpayers. Good job coach.

Now we have record unemployment in twelve states. The unemployment rate rose from 7.6 percent to 9.4 percent under Obama. Yep, he set a record. 9.4 percent is the highest rate in 25 years. Good going coach.

Oh, it gets better. Team Obama set another record when they quadrupled the budget deficit.
Yes, I know. The media tried to help their captain by blaming the recession on former President Bush, but the numbers speak for themselves.

Bush left Obama a deficit of $459 billion dollars. He also left Obama $350 billion, which was to be used to bail out the banking industry. Captain Obama spent that $350 billion dollars and turned around to spend $787 billion dollars on the stimulus package.

The team captain then spent another $410 billion on the Omnibus Bill and threw another $33 billion dollars onto the SCHIP Bill. The Congressional Budget Office (CBO) has estimated that the budget deficit of the Obama administration will total an astronomical 13.1 percent of the Gross Domestic Product (GDP). Let us clap for the team captain.

The CBO reported that under George W. bush, the federal deficit for 2008 was only 3.2 percent of GDP. What was the percentage when the Congress was controlled by the Republicans back in 2007? 1.2 percent. The CBO states that OBAMA'S DEFICIT will force the United States to borrow nearly $10 trillion over the next decade.

STRIKE TWO. Bailing out the auto industry was another mistake made by Captain Obama. What he and the Team of YES really bailed out was the ones who bankroll the Democratic Party. The United Auto Workers (UAW) Union. Obama supposedly taught Constitutional Law but since becoming the Prez, he has done all he can to step on and over the Constitution.

By putting the Unions above those who own GM stocks and hold GM debts, the team captain is only living up to the words he spoke during his campaign. Who said "We're ready to play offense for organized labor. It's time we had a president who didn't choke saying the word 'union.' A president who strengthens our unions by letting them do what they do best: organize our workers. I will make it the law of the land when I'm president of the United States.?" That is correct. Barack Obama said that and has made it a fact.

General Motors was to big to fail. We cannot let them go into bankruptcy. Those are the excuses we heard from Captain Obama and his Team of YES. So, together they threw billions upon billions of dollars into a system they knew would eventually go into bankruptcy. What did it get the taxpayer? Nothing but empty pockets.

STRIKE THREE. Did I mention that Team Obama wants to get the governments hands into our health care system. Yeah, another rush or we will be in trouble plan. How are they going to pay for it? Your guess is as good as theirs.

The Congressional Budget Offices has put out several projections about what it is going to cost the U.S. Taxpayer. Their guess is anywhere from $1,000,000,000,000 (trillion) to $4,000,000,000,000 (trillion). Sen. Max Baucus (D-Montana) has an idea and I'm sure Captain Obama will agree with it.

Sen. Max Baucus, a Dem from Montana, wants to tax health care benefits. Yeah, exactly. Oh but the best part is this. Those that work for the Unions will NOT have their benefits taxed at all. Protectionism at its best folks.

I could go on and on and Team Obama would have struck out 10 times or more. Sonia Sotomayor...STRIKE...Appointing czars who do NOT have to answer to Congress and cannot be found in the U.S. Constitution...STRIKE...Apologizing to our enemies...STRIKE...firing CEO's...STRIKE.

Firing Inspector Generals who are investigating corrupt friends of his...STRIKE...Cap and Trade...STRIKE...Being a wimp and not speaking out on Iran and not taking on North Korea...STRIKE.

The stock market is down again. Gas prices are rising again. Government has quadrupled the U.S. budget deficit. The national debt is at record levels. And, despite the record spending, big government entitlement programs are turning out to have the opposite effect on the economy. STRIKE!!!

Yes, Team Captain Obama, you and your administration have done more in your first four months but it is not for the good of the American people. You have trampled the Constitution, spent our tax dollars to only drive us further in debt and expanded government powers like no one else in history. I hope you continue to strike out...for the sake of our country. "YOU'RE OUTTA HERE!!!"
