Heh, I think that's wishful thinking. Bush is still getting bashed, and he's out of office.
However, that being said, I can't say I agree with people who say they want Obama to find success. That's because Obama being successful means the nation taking up many leftist causes (higher taxes, socialized healthcare, etc). In no way to I want to see him be successful in those ideas.
What I DO want, however, is the NATION to be prosperous and successful under President Obama.
Quite frankly, though, I hope Obama fails miserably at many of his policy positions. |
Bush will be bashed for at least 2 years. This is how long it will take before the new administration will stop using him as the excuse for failures. Obama will govern from the center. There will not be many leftist causes getting through because put simply, they will not work and or just two expensive, sometimes both. Higher taxes in today economic times is not the key to getting it back on track. I believe he realizes that. People are hurting so lets hurt them some more? Makes no sense, what needs to be done is getting money back to the people. Bailing out banks for not good reason is not the way. Billions have already been sent and we have seen nothing but the same in the markets if not worse. Healthcare is a tricky subject and will remain tricky. I do not see a socialized healthcare system coming. Just my own thoughts on it. Possibly his next term if he makes it and I suspect he will. Since his daily briefings before become the president, he has changed his tune on a lot of things only because he was enlightened with the actual facts. Bush, Pentagon, insiders have meetings on material you and I never see or hear about.
