Back Over the Hill

What more does one need to know that the campaign 2008 buzzword “Change” means get out of my way, I’m taking your money and giving it to some other guy? When Joe the Plumber hit the nail on the head the Obama Campaign teetered on the razors edge of melt down. Fortunately for them they were running against John McCain who belonged to the wrong party, made a mockery of suspending his campaign, coming back to D.C. to address the looming spending fiasco that House Republicans wanted to thwart. McCain riding in on his white horse would be President today had he not knuckled under to agree with Obama on the need to pass a massive bill Bush was pushing at the time. Had he stood with House Republicans your grandchildren would not be facing the “Obama-Spend-Our-Wealth-Now train.

In the 1970’s NFL Football Coach George Allen made history with “the over the hill gang, a group of old seemingly useless no name football players that came together for an exciting brand of football that took the Washington Redskins to the Superbowl. Allen’s operational theory was summed up in the slogan “The Future Is Now!” In other words I don’t want to grow talent and wait for up and comers to make things happen, I value experience and I want it all right now. For the most part it worked to a point. However Allen and the gang never won a Superbowl and the aftermath of the philosophy set the Redskins back a number of years. There was a price to pay when the over the ill gang became the "can’t function anymore gang."

President Obama would have George Allen smiling. Here he is with his hands on the till of your money and he wants it now. And he’s taking it now. And he’s spending it now to the tune of a record $3.5 billion fiscal budget. Never mind that we don’t have the money to spend. It’s really in somebody’s pocket; yours. We’ll he’s gonna spend it to hell with you and your children. Who might pay for it? Your grand children will pay!

Yes my friends change has come to Washington though It is not the togetherness we were promised. No it is not the “we’re not looking back administration any more. Obama is now ready to make legal scapegoats of the past administration, something he vowed he would not. So, the change is" blame the other guys and when you’re distracted enough I'll take your money and give it to whomever I want;” Sort of a welfare redistribution plan. Like the days of old. Didn’t we find out that it didn’t work for the Redskins? Why does the inside the Beltway crowd think that this version of "The Future is Now" will fare us any better? It won’t, so don’t expect it. Be prepared for years of rebuilding before we can field a valuable team again after the current administration rapes your purse and calls it just.
