What I Wish Obama Would Have Said Today

The unemployment rate for Americans between the ages of 16-24 is at 15% but instead of providing any solutions to that problem, today President Obama took to the Rose Garden to lecture America about the failures of the Obamacare website. I certainly wish the President would have explained to the American people why there are waivers, exemptions, and delays for his cronies and elected officials, but not for individual Americans.

Americans want to get back to work, not be forced to accept part-time hours or see their insurance premiums skyrocket. Americans did not want Obamacare. I suppose President Obama will never explain the non-standard procedures used to pass it through the House and Senate in 2010, with only Democrat support.

Will President Obama direct Secretary Sebelius to appear before the American people this Thursday, or are we no longer citizens but rather serfs? In Obama’s mind has the system of checks and balances and executive branch accountability become non-applicable? Naturally, the presidential pontification blamed the government shutdown on the website shutdown. Funny thing, the Obamacare website has a 75% failure rate - but at least that’s better than the 100% Obama failure rate.
