Comments on: Obama failing to be an instrument of change http://www.thenorthwindonline.com/?p=3856496 The Student Newspaper of Northern Michigan University Tue, 07 Sep 2010 17:20:58 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0.1 By: matty http://www.thenorthwindonline.com/?p=3856496&cpage=1#comment-80 matty Thu, 18 Mar 2010 15:17:09 +0000 http://www.thenorthwindonline.com/?p=3856496#comment-80 Waah, waah, waah. We’ve read this pouting drivel before. Sorry you can’t get over your Bush rage. Sorry Obama has been so disappointing. The Republicans are not the problem, and Democrats are not the solution. The quality of character of all of our representatives is the problem. Resigning ourselves to governmental babysitting is the problem. Taking back control (responsibility, accountability) of our lives is the solution. Fact: most Americans want to care for the downtrodden. Fact: most Americans want to improve healthcare, but DO NOT want the government running healthcare. How is MEDICARE working out? How was your last trip to the DMV? Underfunded and underserviced? That’s the future of medicine under government control. Government run healthcare is the DMV with wounds. Obama is the next Carter, not the next FDR. He has a lack of leadership, lack of understanding, and a lack of WWII to save his presidency. Credit card reform was a great idea that was poorly executed, and not publicized. Airline passenger bill of rights is another noble idea that will be poorly executed. Does he see the pattern? Government takeover is never the solution. Waah, waah, waah.
