We Americans are in a big snit just now.
Wherever
we turn, we witness deception, trickery, corruption, poor judgement,
irresponsibility and cowardice among our politicians and leading civil
servants. It is a sad time for America when we are embroiled in the filth of
politics and seemingly without recourse to justice through lethargy, lack of a
voice or perhaps just ignorance. We are being robbed blind by the powers that
be, or at least enough of them, to warrant large-scale contempt for those who
pretend to carry our cause and lead us forward.
The glowing aura of Obama that prevailed
during much of his first term has faded into a sea of doubt over his true
intentions. His disregard for the suffering of the people, especially
the middle class, will be his undoing. At the same time, he has done precious
little for his and other minorities and is losing followers at an accelerating
rate.
Some argue that O is oblivious to the havoc he
has created in almost all aspects of political, economic and social life.
Others claim he, like an ill-bred upstart, is trying to extract as much from
the system and for himself as he possibly can before retiring from office.
In either case, the verdict is negative on his
performance and on the prospects for a favorable legacy.
