Why America Deserves Better Than A President Who Won't Make A Decision?

As we are now a year into Barack Obama's presidency, one thing is abundantly clear. He governs as President, as he voted as Senator, present, but never taking a clear side,or changing positions according to the political winds.

This "present" position allows him to flutter in the political winds, keeping him on whatever side is best for him, while not allowing him to be "tied down" into one position.

The unfortunate problem is, that he, as many continually on this post remind us is the  PRESIDENT! Now, his delay waiting on his political compass to settle costs American lives everyday!

Obama has said ,nothing can rush him into this decision on troop support in Afghanistan! Why didn't he say that during the campaign when he was"lying to get votes?" It was all about Afghanistan then!

Here is why. If Obama gives Gen.McCrystal the troops requested, that would be an admission that the troop surge in Iraq was correct and successful. Something that Obama, Reid,Pelosi,Schumer and the rest of the Democrat doomsayers said would fail miserably! God forbid we would admit we were wrong!

Instead let's wait for the Afghan elections. So ,which ever way they turn out we can use the result as an excuse to retreat from our campaign promises on Afghanistan, and support of the fine young American men and women dying everyday on the ground!

Dying everyday, because the President of the United States is to yellow (not black, white, green or blue) yellow to make a decision to support the troops that fight to keep the country HE represents safe!

Obama needs to click his heels together and realize he isn't in Illinois anymore!

We are reliving the same Democratic Viet Nam disaster all over again. Politicians making decisions on how to run a war based on the political winds.You would think Obama would see how that turned out for Johnson. If you are going to ignore the experts that YOU placed in the position to advise, why put them there? The lesson that we thought was learned there was "if your not going to fight to win, don't fight. And, if you are going to fight let the military fight the war!~

Our troops, our country deserve better, than someone who will not take a stand or make a decision!

There is no way to happiness... Happiness is the WAY!

Who knows anymore what our President is thinking and the whys he is not reacting to some major crisis's. When he first took office he rushed and pushed the Health Care, stimulus package. Now he is doing very little responding to critical needs. My earlier posts I asked where are we going as a nation? I still don't know where this President is taking us. Do we just sit back a wait and see where all this spending and waiting takes us? Do we just say okay, he's the President and he knows best! I don't think so..... We need to put more pressure on our officials and get people to speak up and ask why he is not sending troops to Afghanistan, are we going to pull out? Stop the Health Care Reform until this Economy moves and people get back to work, the darn bill is not going to affect any of us until 2013/2014 anyhow!  He is our President until 2012 and none of us knows where we are going to be tomorrow or next week the way things are happening day to day.

Vroom! Vroom!

America does not deserve a president who will make a hurried/hasty decision.

Obama is taking his time to not rush in like the previous administration (who got us in this mess). He is THINKING! Being smart! Calculating his moves! It is always a not-smart practice to enter into anything without using the thought process first. It is a good thing to consider all the ramifications before acting. Some people don't do that and they usually end up in trouble.

Many tribulations were victorious by using "the old idea pot" (the mind).

Cool Equal justice for All

The law works but the system needs changed, We all abide by the law but sometime it failes us. The same with the goverment. God bless the USA, Brign our troops HOME safely, To the men who did not get the credit they deserve, MAY GOD WATCH OVER OUR SERVICE MEN.

Great idea lets send Hussane OBAMA lets send him to Afghanistan or Iraq then Iran let him get shot at and die for our country over there as has been said many times before he does not use his head on things. The thing is our health care reform is important to all of us but why is this a top priorety thing as we the people are. 1st he should give us releif from credit card companys charging as they do there intrest and fees. Those of us on Social Security who need the raise as with prices increasing as they do we cannot afford this sh-- . Then they say the COLA is figured on gas prices well lets see Gas,Heating oil prices, diesel, fuel, electric bills, Taxes, insurance, every thing we purchase has gone up in price. Then he OBAMA has sayes he has created jobs????? where at. Yes unemployment is at its highest level in years not counting those who have quit looking for work as where are these jobs?????? I was talking with a young lady in a resturant the other day and @ $ 2.35 per hour and tips she does not come close to a wage to live on do you tip at least 10% of your bill as most dont tip any more and the resturants are closing there doors as they cant make it any more.So where is it better at that is the Question now he is talking about about another CASH FOR CLUNKERS rebate as it all went to JAPAN not the us auto makers and created jobs yes in Japan and assembled in the usa not American made. Its gowing to create more jobs FOR DA REPO. MEN. As home owners are faced with forclousers well lets see the banks are real estate sales people and used car salesmen but the banks dont lend any money for these things. So where is the end at like i stated send OBAMA to Afghanistan let him fight this war not our children. Let Obama face the problems of our country and turn his list around and start at the bottem and work up.

I would rather have a President who thinks than one who is just interested in declaring a war just because his friends can make the big bucks.  Wake up, America.
