The Propmaster

Some people are slowly coming to the realization that President Obama is a user of people.  As you may remember, when signing the "Affordable Care Act", a.k.a. Obamacare, he had a young black boy standing there beside him, a boy who, sadly, had lost his mother to cancer.  

After Hurricane Sandy, and just prior to the election, Obama was photographed with his arms around a woman who had suffered major losses in the storm as he promised her that he would cut through the red tape and get help for her from FEMA.  She has yet to hear back from him or to receive any assistance from the government and has belatedly come to the realization that she was merely a photo-op for him.  

Many Obama campaign workers are now complaining that they are being shut out of inauguration festivities.  They "worked their butts off" for him and now that he no longer needs them, they're getting the cold shoulder.

Today, the president is planning to make an appearance to propose sweeping changes in gun laws, using children who supposedly have written letters to him as a backdrop.  It wouldn't be surprising if he said "Gun lovers want to kill these children".   

To Barack Obama, people are props to be used and then tossed aside when they have served their purpose and are no longer useful to him.   It's particularly hypocritical for him to appear with children, whose futures are being compromised by the unsustainable debt with which he's saddling them.  

It takes some people longer than others to see this man's true nature.  Let's hope and pray that the majority of people will come to see this amoral narcissist for what he is and rise up to remove him from office.  

Why the Chaos?

Having lived on the Texas Gulf Coast all my life, I've experienced several hurricanes.  The people here know that when a hurricane is approaching, you do some common sense things:  put gas in your cars and gas cans because you may not be able to pump gas after the storm, fill up containers and bathtubs with water and stock up on nonperishable food items.  

Apparently, the people on the east coast didn't realize what they should do to prepare.  They're now suffering with lack of electrical power and, in some cases, lack of food.

What I'm wondering is why in the world doesn't the governor or the president call out the National Guard to fly supplies in to these people? Good grief - this is the United States, not Haiti!  

I know the havoc that a hurricane can wreak and how long it can take to get things back in order.  It seems to me, however, that a little advance preparation could have possibly prevented some of this.  

My thoughts and prayers are with the people affected by this storm.  I hope things get back to normal soon for you.
