On The Policy Front, I Just Believe That Barack Obama Was Misguided. That He Somehow Sees This Country As Being In Need Of A Drastic Overhaul. What He Tried To Do Actually Hurt The Country Rather Than Helped It And The Best Example Is Obamacare. It's A Good Idea To Insure People Who Can't Or Won't Buy Insurance But You Can't Punish The Working Class To Make It Happen, Which He Did. Now Everybody's Paying Higher Premiums And More Deductibles That's Coming Out Of Working People's Pockets And That's One Of The Reasons That His Legacy Has Been Refuted.

Many Conservatives Were Openly Angry With The Bush Administration Over Enormous Government Spending And The Chaos In Iraq. I Don't See As Much Independent Thinking On The Left, Where President Obama Is Rarely Criticized By His Acolytes.

When I Tell Children That They Are Far Too Dependent On Their Gizmos, They Do Not Deny It. But They Really Don't Care.
