I do as I am told

If President Elect Obama were the incoming CEO of a corporation, he would now be preparing for the first act of his tenure: A massive write-off of the mountains of rotted junk buried on the company's balance sheet and an announcement that recovery will take a long, long time.
This flush would clear the way for several years of better than expected results. It would also take advantage of the new leader's one chance to blame the sorry state of the organization on his sorry predecessor.
President Obama began this process last night, in his victory speech, when he noted that restoring the country's health might take more than a term. In the next few weeks, he should go well beyond this:
• The deficit will be more than $1 trillion a year for several years
• The country needs a massive new fiscal stimulus
• The housing market will continue to decline through at least 2010
• Interest rates and taxes will eventually have to rise (after the economy stabilizes)
• Weak corporations have to be allowed to fail
• Millions of homeowners will lose their house
• Unemployment will probably rise to 10%
• The government simply cannot "bail the country out" -- not because it lacks the will, but because it lacks the power
In short, Obama needs to acknowledge reality, erring on the side of overstating the problems and challenges, and he needs to prepare the country for several tough years. Because if he doesn't, within six months of his taking office, the country will have forgotten all about the prior administration and will instead be blaming everything on him.

What I say to this is...
Either way we would be in this mess and either way we will all blame any one we can no matter who is office because we never take blame. Either way we were screwed. Maybe we should stop spending money on huge SUV’s huge designer purses and huge bling bling or small dogs that fit in our purses. Maybe instead of all the money that goes into the reality shows we should be saving and putting all to the EDUCATION of our youth and stop voting for idiots that can dance and sing and vote for a real president who can help. Both of the runners up flip flopped on so many issues at stake. Good for him to be the first African American but really people most of you voted Yes on 8 because you didn't like the part about same sex having sex and the thought of having your child taught that when in fact that had Nothing to do with Prop. 8 at all. You mindless minions did it again. (In robot voice) I will do as I see on the T.V. I will not research or educate myself on facts at all. When my son asked what prop. 8 was I told him that it was about people being allowed to marry who they are in love with even if its another boy or girl and he said that's silly but if they are in love then they should be able to. That would be like if grandma & grandpa never could get married. People he is 7 years old and understood better then most of you. Good Job America!! What's your opinion?
