Does the term dictatorship seem extreme when talking about the president? It might have in times past, but I don’t think it should be with this president. Ask yourself if the president has the right to spend tax money as he pleases? Does he have the right to allocate or take as much money from the American people as he deems necessary and spend it where he thinks it should be spent without any vote from congress? If you feel the answer to this question is no then consider the following.

A radio talk show host brought up an interesting point today certainly worthy of more expansion. People have come to think of the bailout money as being for anything they need it for. It’s like it’s a spending pot. See something you need to spend money on, see a company you want to take over, see an industry you want control over, USE BAILOUT MONEY! The problem with this is that money was set aside for the purpose of bailing out banks. It was not set aside to bail out any business or industry that needs it. It was not set aside to bail out bankrupt states. It has been a unilateral decision by the president to use the money for these things. This is breaking the law. That money has not been voted to the president to use as he will and nothing in the constitution would permit the congress to do such a thing. That is not what taxes are for.

How is what the president is doing with the bail out money any different from how Hugo Chavez or any other dictator spends money at their whim different? Does it differ at all? My response would be that there is no difference whatever in the way they are spending the people’s money. There is nothing in the constitution that allows the government to own private industries.

No one dares stand up and call a spade a spade. I’m sure even in using that common colloquialism many would immediately jump to the ever favorite politically correct charge of racism because I’m talking about spades and Obama, but that is only because such foolish people know nothing of etymology. We live in a society who seems unable to think for itself. We are told global warming is caused by man and no amount of reason or data will dissuade people from their believe. They don’t even question whether there is global warming much less any proof that man is doing anything about it or could do anything to stop it if it were happening. Their only concern which they rush to like moths to the flame is what they can do about it now. Panic is the rule of the day not common sense. If something might even have the slimmest chance of happening it must be dealt with now and it must be dealt with severely and decisively.

This is the excuse both our president and our elite non-representing representatives are taking. One representative says that Obama is acting as a dictator and breaking the law by what he’s doing but says there’s nothing he can do. He says the people have to do something. What he’s not one of the people? Here is more of that Elite disconnect. He can’t call lawyers, get publicity, pass laws, have the president brought before the Supreme Court? This is the foolishness ruining our nation without a word even from our highest leaders.

If these men don’t feel they can stop from spending and taking our money something must be done. Whether it’s a tax revolt where we all go exempt on our paychecks, or whether it’s kicking those in congress out and demanding they leave, something must be done. They care nothing for our picketing and placards. They have the media chasing their tails like dogs. All it takes is a shiny object and the media is onto the new thing and the old is gone as though it never existed and really doesn’t matter. A perfect example of this is the issue of Nancy Pelosi. Do we hear anything more of her now? Of course now that’s old news. No reason to keep brining that up till we get some action. The media knows they only have to wait 2 weeks for something new to catch the medias attention and the issue is gone as though it never existed.

The president does not have the right to determine where that 800 billion dollars will be spent. he must go through congress. Yet congress never seems to have been consulted at all. They were simply told that we needed to bail out GM and therefore that's what that bailout money is for.... now.

The president's job is not to run private businesses. His job is not to tax individuals to get some supposed retribution for how those individuals were rewarded by a private company. Neither the president nor the congress have this right. We have a president who is out of control. I don't mean like a child throwing a temper tandtrum. I mean like a man who can not be told what to do and will do as he pleases when he pleases to whom he pleases. THIS IS DICTATORSHIP. He does not seem to believe he is under any law or constitution and so far the rest of the country seems to agree with him by simply throwing up their hands and saying, "there's nothing we can do about it." We all believe we need congress to do something. Yet we all know that congress is at least part of the problem. congress is at least an equal part of the problem. There are also none to reign them in from their insane rush to power.

Americans if you don't stand up and start to take some serious action you will have none of your loved freedoms before long. Remember those you wait on for food and sustenance are the one's who rule you. Our leaders were never meant to be rulers, they were meant to be representatives.
