It's All About The Bucks!

  I was talking on the phone last night to a friend of mine. He is an old friend  from my college days in Lynchburg Virginia. We we talking about, different presidents  in U S history. My friend reminded  me that President Harry S. Truman said" The buck stops here." and then I said, 'President Truman was certainly a lot different than President Obama, he just passes the buck" I believe this really sums up much of  President Obama's Presidency at least to this point anyway.
  I think I can make this point by simply,  reviewing certain key points in  Obama's first three years as President. Do you remembered how he handled the  drawing up the health care bill? The president left the details of the health care bill to Then,  Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi and Senate Majority Leader,  Harry Reid. We all know,  what a fine job they did! Nancy Pelosi,  understood the health care bill so well that she told  Americans,' We have to pass the bill to know what's it it.' How could anyone know what was in the bill when it was  more than clear,  no one had taken the time to read the bill. well the health care bill became law and the American people still,  to this day,  don't really know whats in the health care law. What about the debate on the debt ceiling? President Obama, only got involved at the last moment, and then blamed the House Republicans, when the Democrats in the Senate were upset with President because he was forced to extend the Bush tax cuts for two years instead of  letting  them expire at the end of 2010 the President, agreed with this,  in order to get an increase on the debt ceiling. Then there is the smashing success of the so called,  super committee that was nothing more than a super failure. The President was once again, missing in action I guess,  presidential leadership,  is not the Presidents strongest suit.
  President Obama,  unlike President Truman, apparently, doesn't care where the buck stops, as long as he can pass it but if President Obama can't pass the buck heaven know, he sure likes to spend it! As always, my friends, these thoughts remain, just, some words, to think on.
