I just got back from the rifle range to some good news for the Obama camp. Unemployment is at its lowest since 1982, the 'recession' has yet to hit its lowpoint and the Iraqi parliament just ratified an agreement that would have the U.S. out of iraq by 2011. Anyone with half a brain can see how these 3 will combine to give us 8 years of the messiah.
Let me explain..
Cycles. Recession comes after a boom economy. It is natural. The market has to correct itself. We have had an unprecedented boom in our economy during the Bush years. Now the market is correcting itself. It will eventually go back up and probably surpass the levels we were at before. Once the market starts heading back up, unemployment levels will start going down. The messiah can, as is the right of the sitting President, take credit for both.
The end of the iraq conflict is an obvious good sign for the Messiah. If the insurgency forces, whom i think are waiting for the end of the U.S. presence to make a mess of things again, hold out until after the elections, Obama can ride this development into the office.
The One's second coronation also hangs on his ability to keep the democrats from completely ruining our frail economy. This potential 'detroit' bailout plan concerns me. It started with the banks and now it may be moving to the auto makers. Who is 'worthy' next? When will the pride of America start coming back into play? We used to pride ourselves on being the best. Now we (detroit is the only obvious one right now) are making inferior products and are expecting the government to bail them out. It doesnt help that the unions (long outdated..imho) are still driving the profit potential for those companies into the ground. At some point you would think that the auto-makers would be looking to copy the toyota model for success. The auto-makers are under very poor leadership and are being strangled by the unions at the same time. Tokyo moved in and is producing a quality product at a cheaper cost and kicking some 'Big 3' ass. They are also doing it with American supplies and American workers.
If obama can stop the bailout and not completely go socialists too early, the re-election takes care of itself.
But on a good note I shot a 230 on the KD range and a 90/100 on table 2. That gives me expert on both. I need my Jack now..
