They Fawn as we Fail…

The press is acting as if we are living in a banana republic and we have a benevolent dictator as our leader. Unfortunately that sentence seems to be gaining some credibility mostly because we have a press and an electorate that is paying too little attention to what is really happening to this great nation.

While the press is covering “date night”, North Korea, Iran, and Venezuela are all moving forward with nukes that threaten our allies and our existence but please tell me about Michelle’s black cocktail dress and the eco friendly Leer Jet.

The government is trampling the US Constitution by taking over private institutions with our tax dollars but please tell me more about the “eco friendly” restaurant (whatever that means) and the wine and martini’s they were drinking.

As the president jet sets around the country millions of people are watching their budgets because they have either lost a job or are about to lose it. I don’t care if he wants to take his wife out but he is no different from any other citizen and I would appreciate a little respect of the money he spends in these difficult economic times.

As the president waves to adoring crowds we have a Supreme Court nominee that has the most racist view of America and she is being hailed by the press for her “inspiring” story. Inspiring? Maybe if you are not on her target list of people that need to be discounted because they are white and male.

As the president stops traffic on the West Side highway in NY inconveniencing an entire city on a Saturday night, other businesses were losing customers due to the arrogance of this man and his need for adulation from crowds. Shame on New Yorker’s for acting like they were teenage girls at a Hollywood opening.

By all means let’s just not have the real debate on policy, spending, debt, and constitutional law breaking. Let’s just watch this adolescent we have in the White House ruin our country right under our noses. Shame on the press and shame on us…
