STATE OF THE UNION ADDRESS

Just another chapter in the continuing saga.  We have noted before that the current President completely fails to address the debt crisis in his State of the Union Addresses.  This, despite the fact that this crisis, this terrible burden, the creeping monster that draws ever and ever closer, is far and away the greatest threat to our wonderful country.  Action must be taken.  The sooner the better.  God please protect us from it being already too late. 

Instead of solutions to solve the debt problem, President Obama proposed more and more programs to SPEND money.  Some of them were just inane.  Many of them would be wonderful things to do IF WE COULD AFFORD THEM.  To be completely accurate, the President did mention one or two proposals that he said would “help to reduce the deficit”.  Not only is that too indirect and too little, those things that he proposed to possibly “help” would, in fact, hurt.  He knew this.  He said those things anyway.  As former Governor and Democratic Party leader Mario Cuomo said recently, “President Obama is a stranger to the truth”.
