President Obama Continues His War Against Prosperity
Saturday, February 28th, 2009This morning, President Obama used his radio address to tell people that he has no intention of slowing down in his war against prosperity, this time telling us that he’s planning on shoving universal health care down our throats:
President Barack Obama challenged the nation’s vested interests to a legislative duel Saturday, saying he will fight to change health care, energy and education in dramatic ways that will upset the status quo.
“The system we have now might work for the powerful and well-connected interests that have run Washington for far too long,” Obama said in his weekly radio and video address. “But I don’t. I work for the American people.”
Yet again, President Obama is using intellectually inaccurate arguments to pass his agenda. Fighting to shove rationed health care down our throats won’t be opposed only by big money people. It will be opposed by Main Street just as much as it’s opposed by Wall Street.
President Obama casting himself as crusading populist fighting for the American people is a farce. President Obama ignored the people if they opposed the bailouts and the Generational Theft Act. That isn’t what people who fight for the people do. President Obama was too busy shoving a radical ideological doctrine down our throats to care what Americans thought.
