You Think Obama’s Been a Bad President? Prove It: Jonathan Alter

Somebody is obviously more interested in running interference for President Skidmark than addressing his shortcomings.

From Wall Street to Main Street, he's done nothing but create uncertainty.. Given the current climate, I'm surprised if anyone dares to invest anything in a manner that will lead to economic growth and jobs down on Main Street. Nobody knows what will happen with Obamacare, Energy prices, Arbitrary Regulation (especially of the environmental variety) Market distortions caused by subsidies and gimmies to backward industries he's arbitrarily declared "winners" Tax policy. Inflation (Of all types)

Nobody knows ANYTHING, because he's taken the whole country and turned it upside down.

Seriously.. WTF are we supposed to do? Nobody knows who or what he's going to pull the rug out from under next. A better question might be WHY WOULD anyone take the risk that they won't be steamrolled (Even unintentionally) by an all powerful Washington DC?

If we respected Constitutional First Principles, we wouldn't have this problem to nearly the extent that we do now. We'd have 50 laboratories to look at, see what and who was growing and prospering, and the other people in the remaining states would have the option of emulating them and their policies.

But WE DON'T! We have an all powerful federal government with its thumb in 50 pies.. So now, when we sink.. We sink together! If they continue to make mistakes, we'll suffer together! If they destroy the country, we'll have little recourse..

We have to get back to the concept of limited government and first principles. It's the only chance average Americans have to mitigate the meddling, incompetence and corruption that pervades Washington DC, and forces their bad ideas on all of us, everywhere...
