New Kid

So it seems that the rumor mill about town has a councilman ready to turn in his resignation. No, its not because of scandal, but rather a new employment position with another municipality. The current system allows for the mayor to choose a replacement. Certainly she is going to pick someone of similar interests?

Question 1

Curious to see how much more of the Hollywood celeb's are going to keep asking for healthcare..

After the speech this evening, I would have to say the above photo is only somewhat accurate. Mr. Obama, I truly believe is trying, but he seems to forget that Republicans have welcomed meetings to discuss the issue, but he has yet to atten or accept.

Good luck, we're going to need it!

With the inauguration soon to occur and Obama to become the 44th President Of The United States I have started to see a new pattern emerge. Other than the state of Illinois's is the new model of political corruptness and that Mr. Obama's new policy direction is as clear as mud, there is something much more interesting happening. Case in point, today I had a colleague of mine at work mention the new stimulus package Mr. Obama is working on. Eager was the tone as the thought of 'free' money being given away. Noticeably like Mr. Obama, my friend only stated how awful the Bush administration was, and that big business was the only friend of George Bush. I wanted to reference one important fact that my esteemed colleague failed to mention, the company we work for is part of that big business. Secondly, I wanted to discuss another issue. Would he go to someone without any financial means and ask for a job or would he go somewhere where he would be compensated for his laborious toil? Most of Mr. Obama's supporters, not all but most, have no real idea what an Obama administration is going to do other than the tired phrase 'Change'. I am curious as to how my good friend will react when he notices a significant tax increase. Maybe he will think it is good, but his dreams of becoming filthy rich will take much longer under Mr. Obama as those who have steady work and have drive to succeed will be the ones who pay more than their share of the load. Charity begins at home, but don't force anyone to pay for the lame and lazy...but wait..that is how Obama plans to 'Change'. Good luck to the USA, we're going to need it.
