Former Democratic Lawmaker Says Obama Takes Hit for Shutdown

I welcome a government shutdown. Out here on the socal left coast gas is rapidly approaching $5 a gallon and diesel is even more. We need our cares; with minor exception there is little or no practical public transportation (except to the Indian casinos). The price of food is climbing rapidly and the wave of illegals from the open border are innundating the ER's and food banks. The teachers clammer for higher pay and benefits yet High School dropout rates are at an all time high, as is teen pot use. Getting caught with pot now is a $25 ticket but punching a yellow at a red light camera will cost you over $500 and using a carpool lane with one driver will cost you over a grand. Our world class agricultural resources are fallow to 'save' a bait fish. We have record snowfall in our watersheds yet are told the price of water is still going to go way up. And we re-elect governor moonbeam to replace a foreign born action hero who did nothing. If, as is said, the Golden State is the leading edge of our nation, we are doomed.

How can we be 27 months into this administration and be stumbling along with no coherent plan or strategy, with the exception of a bunch of disjointed speeches that go nowhere....yet this president still gets a pass by the fourth branch of government, the media?

Every speech, every action, every move Obama makes is totally calculated to be 100% self serving. The betterment of the people doesn't even make it near the top of his list of concern. Good Riddance in 2012.

He just does not belong there at all!!!!
