No pressure Mr. President

Part of me feels sorry for the newly ordained President Obama. The public's expectations of him are enormous and he is merely human.

People expect Obama to extricate them from both wars in Iraq and Afghanistan - while saving face with the Middle East. The US has a deficit approaching a TRILLION dollars, a housing and mortgage crisis that has it's citizens moving out of Beverly Hills Mansions and into cardboard boxes. Vacant factories sit idle from the fallout of the Great George Dubya Bush and his band of merry men. All these factors have been placed solely on the shoulders of Barack Hussein Obama.



It's all well and good to have lofty goals and expectations for your administration, but how is Obama going to resolve this crisis with a minimal amount of discomfort filtering down to the sheeple?

The US is spending more then they are making, plain and simple. How are they expected to get out of this financial disaster? They can't borrow more money - that is how they got into this mess in the first place. Their plan to take over Iraq for it's oil reserves seems to have hit a small snag, so that influx in oil revenue will have to wait. You can't tax a population who are living in cardboard boxes and fighting the rats over stray bread crumbs.

Obama's ability to raise people up through the power of his speeches is a good quality to have during such difficult times. But his silver tongue will have to produce some results or the natives will get restless. I give him about 12 months before the sheeple stag a mutiny.

It's a good thing that Obama is the next messiah. He will need all the help he can get.
