BRAVO Father .. you hit it square on!!
Dear President Obama,
Every citizen with a modicum of insight into public affairs would say
that America is now at a crossroads of decision about what kind of
future we want for our nation - and, by extension, for the rest of the
world. Whether we like it or not, you are the one who is designated by a
vote of the electorate to lead us in that decision-making process. You
have asked for the job, and you have proposed yourself as being
competent for it. History will judge your Administration on its own
merits when your term is complete, but we, the citizens of this country,
must judge it for what we see happening before our very eyes. Quite
frankly, the picture isn't pretty, and you haven't earned our respect as
a leader.
The reason for this, Mr. President, is that we can't believe what you
say, and frankly, what you do is utterly unbelievable at times.
The recent Gulf Coast oil spill disaster is indicative of your utter
carelessness with the onerous burden of governance. Not only did you dis
the families of the 11 workers killed in the disaster, but you also
attended fundraisers in CA, a trip to the golf course and several state
parties in the White House during the whole time the Governor of
Louisiana has been screaming frantically for your attention. How can you
expect us to believe that you were actually "in charge" of handling the
disaster? In six weeks we have seen hardly a shred of evidence to
convince us of that. A leader who says he is in charge of something and
then conducts a systematic campaign of blaming, dodging, obfuscating,
ignoring and even now prosecuting the others involved - instead of
fixing the problem - will hardly go down in the record books as the
savior he proposed himself to be when he was elected. You are the
Commander-in-Chief who has gone AWOL on a truly national crisis.
On top of all that, you basically blew off a sacred national holiday,
Memorial Day, for the sake of a vacation to gangsterland. That slap in
the face to our military men and women was not lost on anyone, nor was
the narcissistic disregard for American history or anything other than
what fits your extreme political agenda. These are appalling traits for
the one who holds the highest political office in our land, and only a
fawning and dishonest media allows you to get away with this negligence
in office.
Speaking of which, what are we to make of your pathetic excuse for the
crime of attempting to bribe Congressman Sestak to bow out of the Senate
race against Arlen Specter? Do you really think Americans believe the
utterly implausible story about offering him a "non-paying" position on
some presidential panel? Your Administration's explanation, issued on
the afternoon of a holiday weekend, rings hollow, and everyone knows it.
"Hollow" is an adequate word to describe your Administration, your
political theatre and your rhetoric. Even some of your staunchest
ideological supporters admit that it is getting increasingly hard to
believe that you mean anything you say.
In the midst of all this domestic incompetence and dishonesty, we have
seen no realistic response to North Korean, Iranian or Turkish
aggression on the world scene. Foreign politicians know you are a
leftist lightweight, and so we can expect more of the same from the
rogue nations of the world, further destabilizing the security of our
nation and the world. We have, however, seen you and your inept band of
political marauders pander to foreign dictators and exploit the Mexican
President to abuse us and our national deliberations on serious issues.
We have seen your ideological hacks take over whole industries, plunder
the private sector, abuse the good will of states and consume sound
American institutions as if they were your enemies and with a ferocity
that would befit only those who we would call our true national enemies.
Like the Gulf oil spill, your Administration is out of control, and
every day is another step closer to disaster. As the oil continues to
pollute, kill and damage the external beauty and economy of a whole
region, you and your team are doing the same with the trust of the
people who built this great country.
We deserve better, Mr. President, and it's time you start doing your
job.
Sincerely,
Rev. Thomas J. Euteneuer,
President, Human Life International
