Grading (perhaps de-grading) our Leader

.
I know that I previously said I would provide you with information useful in deciding how to cast your vote intelligently in our upcoming elections.  But since most primaries are over and the real elections are still distant,I thought I'd review a few things that our President has done in the past.  Some you will remember, perhaps not so with others that have seemed to fade from memories with the passing of time.

Most, I'm sure remember, "If you like your doctor  . . . .," but do you remember him denying that he knew William (Bill) Ayers (the convicted terrorist), who hosted a campaign fundraiser where the President attended?  Two lies, long ago, but I remember.  

Remember the "Cash for Clunkers" program that enabled to auto dealers to sell their wares at inflated prices knowing that the buyers would agree because they were to receive the federal handout?  I'm sure many of you smart ones made the wise decision welcome that handout.  I wouldn't blame you, but who had their good job they once had?  What about the bail out of GM, and the subsequent losses to investors after the company received amnesty for their debt obligations, then re-selling their stock at grossly inflated prices?

Remember his Executive Order providing free health care to illegals, which has since been deemed an overreach of his powers by the Supreme Court?  What about him publicly calling that Cambridge cop a racist while defending his black professor friend's involvement?  Or his statements condemning the white Neighborhood Watch guy when he killed the black gangster who was assaulting him.  

This morning, my Pastor used scripture to support that how a reasonable leader must surround himself with reasonable thinking people to help him make reasonable decisions.  Nothing could be worse than the cabinet members that our President has appointed.  Like Eric Holder, who has been in the limelight of nearly every action he has taken, beginning with his refusal to prosecute the Black Panthers involved in voter intimidation. Or Janet Napolitano's DHS appointment.  The only thing she accomplished was redesign the security threat sign during her reign.  DHS is still incompetent.  How about Hillary Clinton, who spearheaded the Benghazi cover up?  Lois Lerner, and Holder again in another cover up with the IRS and Fast and Furious incidents. NSA, and the list could go on and on..

His failed policies.  The agreement to remove our missile defense system from Turkey, his concessions to Iran in their nuclear development program, his refusal to intervene in the Syria or Libya collapses, his announced recall of our forces from Iraq and Afghanistan, and his reduction and lack of support for our military, have all been disasters. Health care, border security, amnesty. spreading the wealth, school lunch mandates, and his racists remarks continue to defy imagination.  

Surely I could name more.  Quite frankly I can not recall a decision that the President which I can support. Obama is a Buffoon, but incredibly to me, fewer and fewer of you refuse to take an open stance against his failures.  

But know this....... When nobody stands, I'll stand alone.
