The interesting thing is how fast our system of checks and balances stepped in to stop the Obama train before it really caused some catastrophic damage. Now, because of the quick about face by the electorate, we have a rolling back of policies and gridlock in the congress. This is how the system was designed to work and it is amazing how clearly the founding fathers saw the danger of a one party rule and how to protect us from the resulting socialism if it occurred.

The next election should get the system working again and like it or not, we will most likely head into another decade long Republican party run in retaliation to this one term failed President. The GOP is already in control of the purse strings, and they are going after the real problems as they see them, the liberal press headed by its national arm, NPR/APR and stopping the out of control spending spree initiated by a congress set free of checks and balances for a short period of time.

I can't even listen to Mr. Obama speak any more. I find myself yelling at the tv or the radio, in a fury watching the President... the most powerful man on the planet, pandering to special interest and posing for the cameras. He does this almost daily as he gives more speeches than any other sitting president ever thought about giving... all the time, saying nothing important... having no plan.

It will be over soon. I still have hope that we can fix this. Yes we can!
