Let’s Catch Up On Obama: He Is Going To Create Or Save 2.5 Million Jobs

By: Pam On: Nov/28/08 - 1 Comment

Which is it?  Is he going to create or save?  There is a big difference, but ultimately, the numbers for unemployment will remain the same.

The President-Elect, Talking Turkey

The real news is that Obama had clearly run out of things to say.

It is a case of being careful of what one asks for. When Obama went to ground for about 10 days, making no public announcements and furtively slipping in and out of the gym, pundits wondered what had become of the “transparent transition” he promised. But Obama buried that complaint this week with an extraordinary blitz: His second, third and fourth news conferences set a new record for a modern president-elect, and he still has nearly two months to go……

…….CNN’s Ed Henry gave him the business, demanding to know why he had tapped so many former Clinton aides and even a Bush man, the Pentagon’s Robert Gates.

“Paul Volcker has been around a long time,” Henry pointed out. “You talked about [how] John McCain was going to come back to Washington if he won and would just move people into different chairs. We got Tom Daschle, Hillary Clinton, Bob Gates –”

Henry didn’t even get to mention Rahm Emanuel, John Podesta, Greg Craig, Ron Klain, Eric Holder, Bill Richardson and the rest before Obama cut him off.

“First of all, that’s not the topic,” Obama instructed Henry. “We’re not talking about my Cabinet, because I haven’t made those appointments yet.”

And besides, the 81-year-old Volcker, who spent a quarter-century in the federal government, “hasn’t been in Washington for quite some time,” the president-elect added.

    Why are you so surprised? After all, we the people elected this turkey to be president of the United States. All we can do is just pray that God (God the Father, God the Son, Christ, and God the Holy Spirit) will give President elect Obama the moral courage to lead the country properly and make him aware of divine establishment principles. It is only Christ (the only true Savior and Messiah) who can truly save us and the world, not Obama.
