I didn't grow up a political guy, through college I was probably actually a left wing type, but not until I needed to start saving money, holding down steady work, looking at retirement, etc, did I become more conservative. And when you are pulling for one side or ideal, it gets fun to play the political game.
Well, this past 4 weeks I must say has been like watching one's favorite NFL team tear through the playoffs and win the Super Bowl.
Having the chance to not only see Obama extend tax cuts for the rich, but then to go on global television and scold the left for being pissed about it?
Imagine March 2009. Obama has been in for 2 months. If we could take a time machine back then, and tell ourselves "The day will come that Obama will extend tax cuts for the rich, AND then go on global TV and scold the left....".............I'd assume someone was lying to me.
But no. We just witnessed it. And if you also told me of March 2009 that DADT would still not be repealed, Gitmo would still be open, we'd do a troop surge in Afghanistan, AND start bombing Pakistan, and increase enforcement of illegal immigration (it's true, more arrested under Obama than Bush), and we'd take the House back by large margins, and Obama's approval rating would be below Bush's, ALL at the same time..............I'd say "What, did Obama turn out to be a closet Republican?" HAHAHAHAAA!!!
And to top it all off.....a 2% payroll tax cut. MORE money in my pocket.
Hell, at the rate this guy is going....................I'M GONNA CONSIDER VOTING FOR HIM IN 2012!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
