Have you noticed that the political rhetoric coming from Washington these days has calmed down? In fact, it has calmed down a lot from the past months that saw so much mud being flung around it was hard to understand the issues.

I am glad that we have made it through this period because we are now entering a period of reflection on what has just passed while still looking at the issues that loom ahead of us, health care, the deficit, Afghanistan and so many more.

I am glad to see that the press is starting to open up a little on the foibles of President Obama and Saturday Night Live ever the beacon of satire has finally decided to take him on once in awhile. It does my heart good to see that he is not above the rest of us although the NEA (National Endowments of the Arts) just proclaimed him to be the greatest writer since Julius Caesar (I guess I would say the same thing if I was getting millions of dollars to promote my agenda too but better than Shakespeare, come on now).

The people of the world, save a few, have always looked for a Messiah and our times are no different. The Christians have theirs but the other groups are still looking and trying to find that one person that “fulfills” them and this man fills the bill right now. Can he sustain it, no for he is just a man. And as they look to him for the things they desire they will become frustrated and then the feeding frenzy will begin. It already has.

While this president has enjoyed the highest popularity of any modern president he is now in a free fall that was brought on by promises he cannot keep. I think he wants to but I don’t think he is going to be able to do it, for he is just a man, not a Messiah. His polling numbers continue to drop as he loses his credibility and fan base. Independents are abandoning him and the next political races in Virginia and New Jersey will be a litmus test for the 2010 mid term elections.

Thank you President Obama for single handedly resurrecting the Republican Party in less than one year. As you see Virginia and New Jersey governorships go to the Republicans know that November 2010 will be the day that you and the missus can start packing your bags and preparing to leave Washington D.C.

The American people can be fooled once but twice…not so much. Bye!
