I thought that President Obama ran a good campaign — for the most part.  I thought it was S T U P I D to choose Biden for V.P. but I admired how he organized his campaign and used technology in new innovative ways.  He changed the way national elections will be conducted at least that is what I thought until today.

However, since entering office President Obama is way out of his league.  Clearly, he won the election and has every right to be in his position.  But the guy who campaigned cannot be recognized today.  Should I just conclude that Obama was a great campaigner and a terrible leader when clearly leadership is required to run a good campaign.

Once Obama entered office, he has gone out of his way to be Mr. Nice Guy.  He appeases the Republicans constantly and they accept any overture Obama offers but does not return anything in kind.  Republicans have a clear strategy — just oppose everything.  This seems like a third grade tactic but it clearly is working.  By just constantly opposing health care, they have taken a large majority opinion about the need for reform and transform it into a minority opinion of people who do not want the existing bill.  Victory for Republicans — again.

So, Obama has gotten little important done.  There is no banking reform and all of his talk about banking reform is just talk.   It will go nowhere.  Just as there will be no consumer protection.  The big bonuses will continue and the banks will continue to get bigger.  There will be other bailouts and still more bonuses.

Today’s Supreme Court ruling is a major victory for Republicans.  They can unleash powerful and rich corporations to fund their campaigns. This will be so easy because it is not hard to find wealthy industries that want to maintain the status quo.  Even excluding the obvious ones, like energy and health care, you have industries like food production that are happy to fork over lots of money to make sure to keep those pesky Democrats with their crazy notions that food should be healthy and not make you sick out of office.    Then you have foreign governments who want to buy more weapons or need additional aid.  They will find it is much easy to fill the coffers of the head of Congressional subcommittees.  Because as the saying goes in America — people don’t win elections, money does.

And tonight the Democrats are vowing to fight today’s Supreme Court ruling with a Constitutional Amendment. That is totally laughable and has no chance of getting passed in Congress much less getting ratified among 2/3rds of the states.  Those states include those idiot RED states that have one crazy religious wacko idiot after another voting for people who Palin thinks is smart.   No — there will be no big change in what the Supreme Court did.  Just as there has been no change in corporate person hood which gave corporations the rights of people.  There will be no changes and the FIVE Nazis on the Supreme Court who affirmed today’s decision knows that full well.    So, let thinking people object to today’s Supreme Court ruling because it won’t last long, whereas the ruling will last as long as America will.

Here is the immediate future.  Obama will keep giving speeches and accomplish little.  Obama will continue to talk about fairness and appease Republicans.  Republicans will continue to win with these strategy of opposing everything.  Nothing will get done.  Democrats will become increasingly more  upset and later ambivalent.  Republicans will win future elections and will help usher America down the toilet of their ideology, just as they have done for decades.

Eventually, there will be an uprising after things get so bad that ordinary Americans have no hope.  It will come on quickly when it starts but only time will tell how much people will endure first.

America is doomed.
