You wanted change?

My fellow Americans.

Despite my and my associates' best attempts to dissuade you, you insisted on electing as the leader of America a man whose loyalty to America is questionable at very best.

So how are Hope and Change progressing thus far?
Let's see what's on the administration's agenda, three months in.


1. Going after farmers
H.R. 875: Food Safety Modernization Act of 2009 could end farmers’ markets as we know it by requiring growers to register, be subject to inspections of their gardens by federal agents, and maintain safety records related to food production or face large fines.
Under H.R. 875, all participants in farmers’ markets will be forced to register, otherwise the market will be shut down as an illegal operation. Failure to comply with the Food Safety Modernization Act of 2009 would result in a fine of up to $1,000,000 per violation.
Yes. Because organic produce helps the terrorists win.


2. Going after gun owners
"From now on, remanufacturers of military brass will not be able to buy surplus brass from DOD--actually from Government Liquidators, llc.--the corporation that sells surplus materials for the U.S. government. At least, not in any form recognizable as once-fired brass ammunition.

Now all brass ammunition will have to be shredded, and sold as scrap."
(Be sure to check out the "What can I do" section at the end of the linked article)


3. Going after veterans
The leader of the nation's largest veterans organization says he is "deeply disappointed and concerned" after a meeting with President Obama today to discuss a proposal to force private insurance companies to pay for the treatment of military veterans who have suffered service-connected disabilities and injuries.
"It became apparent during our discussion today that the President intends to move forward with this unreasonable plan," said Commander David K. Rehbein of The American Legion. "He says he is looking to generate $540-million by this method, but refused to hear arguments about the moral and government-avowed obligations that would be compromised by it."
So, giving away trillions is a matter of course, but that $540 million (.077% of the 700 billion dollar bailout proposal, by the way) is just way too much for the government to spend on soldiers who were wounded in combat into which the government sent them.



None of this should be surprising;
Obama was the most liberal senator.
Liberals have consistently despised and attacked small town/rural America, gun owners, and those who defend our country. Only after 9-11 did they start doing lip service to soldiers, all the while still screaming that their cause was evil. Now a majority of Americans, some well-meaning but misguided, others with similarly warped views, have given them the reigns.

You won't know America once they're done, if they keep at it, and you certainly won't want to live here. But by then, you probably won't be allowed to leave.

"Da, komrade... everyone who applies for an exit visa gets one. There is just one small problem with your papers..."
