" B.O. and F.D.R."

Yesterday President Obama made another speech in the line of unending speeches that he makes promoting himself. It has become quite tiresome watching the continuation of the 2008 campaign. Obama only panders to his base and I believe he does this just to hear his name called by his adoring disciples. He was smiling like the "cat who swallowed the canary" as he spoke to his cheering followers, you could almost see him absorbing the cheers directly into his enormous ego. I find it odd that this same man wouldn't dare address those who oppose his questionable agenda in the public forum. When he is challenged he becomes visibly upset; as if no one has the right to question his philosophy, he feels he is omnipotent.

This attitude of superiority has been shown in the past by other leaders in history. Now I'll bet my friends on the left are expecting a comparison to Stalin, Mao, or Hitler. Well here is the surprise. Franklin Delano Roosevelt was the personification of the self absorbed leader. This man took our constitution and twisted it into shapes that would be the envy of any contortionist. Free trade, interstate commerce, and wage controls were just part of FDR's agenda of change. He also wanted to manipulate the Supreme Court. In 1937 Roosevelt tried to implement the "Judiciary Reorganization Act", which would allow additional judges to be added to the court for each member of the court who was 70.5 years of age or older up to six additional judges. This was Roosevelt's way to add liberal judges to the system and disrupting the balance of power of government. I know many of my leftist friends will say Roosevelt took us out of the "Great Depression", when in actuality WWII was what put America back to work. The public works programs didn't do much to stimulate the economy and most of them were found to be unconstitutional, thus the reason FDR wanted to " pack the court". The actual recovery of the "Depression" came after WWII during the Eisenhower administration when the men returning home went back to school and entered the business world and the free market was now in full swing. Tax cuts, and investment from the private sector brought America into a new era of prosperity.

I know all of the disciples of liberalism will bristle at these revelations because Roosevelt is a god to them. Isn't it interesting that the amendment on term limits was passed as soon as FDR was out of the picture.

Now we have another man in office who wishes to manipulate the constitution, and the judicial system. The difference is that over 70% of the people have shown that they don't like his policies. He continues to smile as we see no real improvement in the economy, yet he says the worse is over. He actually taunts the people as he believes they will do nothing.

America we need to exercise our own version of term limits, in November 2010 and in November 2012. Lets restore the balance of power to America, it belongs to us!
