State of Obama

It's about an hour until the anointed one takes the podium at Constitution Ave(irony) I decided to break out my crystal ball and predict what will be said and what will happen.

1. First off, he will be late by 10-15 minutes. Its an old trick speakers use to get people excited. And now with Plouffe back in the picture, you can guarantee we'll see campaign mode Obama. In fact if he could get away with it, he'd show up without a jacket, tie, and have his sleeves rolled up to prove he's just a regular Joe six-pack.

2. He will blame Bush, I mean the past administration. This is just easy money.

3. Banks/Wall Street. This is the newest group in his cross hairs. Remember when it was doctors, the chamber of commerce, insurance fox news, talk radio and of course the tea party protesters. Now he'll go after the people that invest in America. The people that give credit lines to small businesses.

4. He will use the terms "let me be clear" and "its just not me saying this". Again he does this so much that back in college we'd take a shot every time he says it.

5. Obamacare. Massachusetts and every poll available means nothing to him. They have invested too much to stop now. They see the top of the mountain of socialism and how dare the idiot masses tell him they don't want something!

6. Spending freeze. See he's as conservative as Goldwater! Except for the fact that the freeze doesn't take into account his health care proposal. Plus it doesn't start for a year. Oh and anything else he wants shouldn't be effected.

7. Haiti. I would like to see if he acknowledges that people in this country(you know the one his wife is ashamed of)opened up their wallets before he or Hollywood even asked. I doubt it though. This would be a great time for him to talk about amnesty. This is another big thing he and Dems want done. They realize that they need more votes(after Mass)and Mickey Mouse can only vote so many times!

8. Green jobs. Here's another great one he keeps beating like a rented mule. All these great green jobs that we have to subside. Funny...all the jobs that aren't green start without gov't help and most do just fine. Heck the bane of environmentalists, the car, changed the way we live and work without a government hand out.

9. Education. He'll have you believe our kids are below Haiti when it comes to education. Of course the only way to change this is throw more money at it. No need to attack the real problems of top heavy administrations, teachers unions, and teaching how great it is to be gay(instead of focusing on teaching what kids need to learn).

10. Middle Class. He's gonna help out by giving more tax credits for child care and elder care. Ever notice how every time a lib wants to give a tax break you have to do something to get your own money? Wouldn't it make more sense to say everyone gets x% of money?

Here is a partial list of the people invited by Obama to be his guest tonight. A soldier , a student, the Haitian ambassador, a college student studying to be a teacher, a Philly grocer, and an Arizona businessman that received 99 million in stimulus money. With that he created 50 jobs in the green sector. So it costs 99 million for 50 jobs? That's about 1.9 million a job! Maybe he should be going after green bosses instead of bankers!

The one thing that is for sure, I doubt this speech will make the Queens ipod.
