I don't think President Obama wants to destroy us. I really don't. My reponse to his actions is usually, "Well, if you think it's a good idea. 30,000 troops? You must have an excellent plan. Proceed my friend. Affordable healthcare? Let's do this." I feel this way because, from what I can tell, he doesn't have an evil agenda. Stay with me. From what I can tell, he isn't sending troops to Afghanistan with diabolical hopes of maximum casualties. When he talks about making insurance affordable for hard working Americans, I don't think he really wants to kill my grandma. My Grandma would be awfully upset if that were true. She likes him too. When he speaks, I think, "Well, shoot, that just makes sense." I appreciate that when he speaks, it seems as if he is actually saying what he thinks. Yes, it's still strange for me too, after eight years of the other.
This week the President addressed the sheisty banks that helped steer the country into its current predicament. I again had a strange reaction when I heard an excerpt from his interview with 60 Minutes. From what I can tell, he was expressing his genuine frustration and not delivering a cardboard political speech crafted by advisors:
"The people on Wall Street still don't get it. ... They're still puzzled why it is that people are mad at the banks. Well, let's see. You guys are drawing down $10, $20 million bonuses after America went through the worst economic year ... in decades and you guys caused the problem."
I hope Wall Street is no longer puzzled. Fairly straight forward, from what I can tell.
I do think Tyra is trying to destroy us.
All the brass,
Heidi
