Obama's Speech

As usual, Obama came across as if he were an Angel sent from above. As long as he sticks to the teleprompter he wins the hearts and souls of the uninformed.

But, like his political speeches during his campaign he is making promises that he has no intention on keeping.

Look at his track record... he promised transparency and we received closed door negotiations, he promised to keep lobbyists out of his administration yet Obama's cabinet is filled with former lobbyists, he promised honesty and we have tax cheats throughout his administration, he keeps promising "responsible spending" and we just funded millions of dollars on the Salt Marsh Harvest Mouse in the San Francisco Bay area, he promised no earmarks yet the spending bill just passed is filled with earmarks.

Obama resembles a political character in a cheesy classic movie... "I promise a car in every garage and a rose garden in every yard." Everyone should know that these are hollow promises.

To use Obama's own retoric... "These are Only Words"
