Dear Mr. President,
You asked the American people last night to contact their Congressional Representatives, to tell what they think about our Debit Limit crisis. Since my Representative Gwen Moore or Senator Herb Kohl, do not represent me, I am writing to you.
Well sir, I hold you responsible. You have been an obstacle to honest negotiations. You have intentionally prolonged the crisis, not once offering a written plan.
In short sir, your demagogic mendacious grandstanding has not been helpful. Today, America has a spending problem that manifests as a debt crisis. Tomorrow it will be more odious. You sir are responsible and accountable to fix it, by finding solutions with Congress.
I read John Rawls, on my own initiative in 1985, as a doctoral student in public policy at Vanderbilt University. In my view, Professor Rawls' political philosophy of redistribution of wealth is incompatible with American culture and capitalism. I bring up Rawls because I believe it is fundamental to the direction you have taken this country. It is your duty to tell the American people that that is your intention. Then the 2012 Election will tell all of us what direction the American people wish to go.
Until then, you and your Democratic cohorts own this economy and you are responsible to make it work.

McConnell’s Debt Ceiling Fiasco
‘What the hell is going on out there?’
Perhaps, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell has channeled Florence’s illustrious political philosopher and strategist Niccolo Machiavelli, to concoct his latest strategy to get Mr. Obama and his Democratic cohorts to help solve America’s debt crisis.
Nevertheless, Mr. McConnell’s proposal to allow Mr. Obama to raise the debt ceiling three times between now and December 2012, unless two-thirds of Congress votes to block it, is inexplicable political strategy.
Only yesterday in a speech before the Senate, Senator McConnell spoke truth to power when he said: “After years of discussions and months of negotiations, I have little question that as long as this President (Mr. Obama) is in the Oval Office, a real solution (America’s debt crisis) is unattainable.”
Negotiations with Mr. Obama are completely pointless. Mr. Obama’s agenda isn’t to rebuild American “exceptionalism” and economic strength; it is to transform America into a debtor’s nation, and transfer the American taxpayers' wealth in accord with his Marxist-Rawlsian political philosophy.
Mr. Obama and the Democrats are not honest agents. It contradicts every realty to believe you can have a civil and constructive engagement with them. To believe that Mr. Obama truly wants to find a solution to America’s debt crisis, lower unemployment, and grow our economy, can only be validated by resolutely ignoring actual facts. It is Mr. Obama and his Democratic cohorts who own this economy. Mr. Bush has not walked through that Oval Office door in two and one-half years -- it's Mr. Obama's economy.
If Mr. Obama wants to stop making payments to our Military, Senior Citizens (Social Security and Medicare), Veterans, interest on America’s debt, and essential government programs, as he has shamelessly threaten to do, that is his choice. This demagogic grandstanding can be called to account by the House of Representatives by simply passing legislation to prioritize payments for essential groups and services, with the result that no necessary Federal government functions will be impaired. If the Democratic controlled Senate and Mr. Obama want to oppose this legislation then it is they who are responsible for the consequences.
In a search for solutions, Americans should expect no constructive role from the Mainstream Media (MSM). In American society today, the MSM speaks only for the liberal left, academic elitists, generational parasites, and special interests such as public sector unions, autoworkers' union, and Wall Street bankers. The MSM does not give voice to the majority of American citizens. Consequently, this should be fully understood: Americans don’t care what they say, and Americans don’t listen to what they report. The MSM has made themselves irrelevant.
Americans want debt relief. Americans want less government spending. Americans believe that we pay enough taxes. Americans want tax reform. And, as Florida Senator Marco Rubio insightfully stated: “America needs not higher taxes, but more taxpayers.”
Americans elected conservative Republicans in 2010 because they understand that Mr. Obama and his Democratic cohorts are destroying the country they love. If Republicans want to win in 2012 – they better show the American taxpayer they mean business today!

The Reason Why: Dominique Strauss-Kahn Affair
It all just seemed so straight forward – yet, it wasn’t. The Manhattan district attorney, Cyrus Vance, Jr., we are now told got it wrong in the case against Dominique Strauss-Kahn (DSK), the former Managing Director, the International Monetary Fund (IMF), and a top contender to be France’s next President. Of course Jr. wouldn't admit to that.
It turns out that the "compelling and unwavering" maid's story was bullshit (that’s French for baloney). In fact, this "hard working immigrant" had lied about everything on her asylum petition, and the circumstances of the alleged rape. So devastated after the brutal rape -- she went to clean another hotel room and went back to DSK's room to tidy up there as well. Now we are told that she contacted a friend, a day later, who is serving time in an Arizona prison for drug trafficking and money laundering. This fellow and others have made cash deposits to a bank account in her name of $100,000.00, in the past two years. There's more, but you get the point.
The real question is why Jr. brought these charges to begin with, and treated DSK as the lowest human being on the criminal food chain. Can you handle the truth?
Well, it all begins and ends with the President of the United States, Mr. Obama. Obama and the Obama Administration were enraged at DSK for statements he made on America's fiscal crisis. DSK said that America's excessive spending has not worked and is only making matters worse. First to get his pound of flesh was Timothy Geithner, US Secretary of Treasury, who came out immediately after DSK's arrest to call for him to resign from the IMF. Then the Mainstream Media (MSM) took their shots.
Junior's incompetent rush to judgment worked out quite well for Mr. Obama: humiliate DSK; get him removed from the IMF where he casts too large a shadow; and score some points with Nicolas Sarkozy, President of France, who was down in the polls to DSK and France's Socialist Party in the upcoming French Election.
Well, that's how I see it. The French were right to defend DSK, but not for all the right reasons. His behavior was despicable. Yet, he was set up -- for the truth he told about Obama's failed and demagogic fiscal policies.
C'est la vie, n'est-ce pas?
