Obama's new
battleground isn't actually America
In the aftermath of the October 2013 government shutdown,
President Obama is still finger pointing, which is putting the republican party
into a defensive mode. Most people will agree that what they (the republican
party) did was bad for country, but sometimes it is very hard to forgive
someone for their transgressions unless they first admit they wronged you in
someway. The problem is that a few
republicans do not even think they did anything wrong, but the majority of the
American people think differently and the majority rules. But still America
Now the government is open and the debt ceiling is raised
and what the American people were promised was real negotiations between the
two parties, in order to arrive at a bipartisan solution to our fiscal
problems. So I do not understand the
problem? Why is President Obama and the
republicans still talking about the past?
Why haven't the negotiations already begun? Do they plan on bickering and small talking
until the last minute again to finger point and cast blame at the other side
for the lack of progress?
I honestly feel that the republicans are so full of hatred
towards President Obama that they are blind by their hatred. And because of
this they will blindly play into President Obama's hands and eat his bait. And
instead of forcing President Obama to talk about the real issues and start the negotiations,
they will resort to name calling against President Obama and his policies in
the public forum. They will be reactive
instead of proactive. And this will only
result in another 11th hour showdown. Already Senator McCain is talking
publicly about how bad President Obama foreign policy is. What happened to real
face to face negotiations?
And I think President Obama's real agenda now isn't
resolving our problems with the 113th Congress.
But his eyes is on the 114 Congress. His eyes is on gaining about 17
seats in the House in the 2014 elections and a few more in the Senate and this
can happen. Why? Because the republicans are divided from
within and are out of touch with the demands of the majority of the American
people.
The problem however is that what may seem as a short term
problem can become long term devastation to America America ,
no decision can mean the fall of America
