A Dream Came True (unfortunately)

The British newspaper The Telegraph has a lightly critical piece on Obama discussing how "Barack Obama's rich supporters fear his tax plans show he's a class warrior".

Duh, how can you become rich and be stupid enough to vote for a man who says outright he's going to put you in a 40 - 50% tax bracket if you make over $200,000 a year. Probably the same idiot on Wall Street who told The Telegraph, "We badly need some European style social democracy, and Obama might as well start with health care reform."

No, the LAST thing we need is European-style social democracy, jackass.

That Mr Obama should have radical views on the shortcomings of the US economy is hardly surprising. As a young man he turned down a high paying career in the corporate sector to work as a community organiser in Chicago.

"I would imagine myself as a captain of industry, barking out orders, closing the deal, before I remembered who it was that I had told myself that I want to be," he wrote in his memoir Dreams from My Father.
Isn't that what Obama is doing now, captaining industries by pirating them away from the private sector into the public sector? Isn't that what Obama is doing now barking out orders and treats to those who question The One? Isn't that what Obama is trying to do now, close the deal on the destruction of all American Exceptionalism?

Looks to me like Obama's dream cam true - unfortunately for the rest of us.

Even Warren Buffet "is among high profile Obama supporters worried that he is attempting too much by pressing ahead with other controversial reforms such as healthcare."

"Job one is to win the war, the economic war, job two is to win the economic war, and job three," he said recently. "You can't expect people to unite behind you if you're trying to jam a whole bunch of things down their throat."
Obama's too excited about his power rush to listen to Buffet's advice. Cramdown seems to be the focus of this administration.
