We have heard for the last four years the reason things aren't better is because of the mess that this administration inherited from George W.Bush.Maybe it's because they just like hearing the word Bush.This morning,on Fox and Friends,Robert Gibbs told us again that President Obama inherited this bad economy.Should we still be hearing that from the same people ? It sure is getting old.Thus, we should put Obama back in office for another four years of the same policies that aren't working.
If a newly hired football coach took over a bad program to turn the program around,he usually is given a few years to do so.But,if results were minimal or staying the same,the answer is not to blame the conditions when he was hired.Every coach knows he was hired to turn the program around and not to blame others when questioned about the lack of progress.If he continues to do so,not only would he lose his athletic director's support,but also fan support.Instead of getting better,the program would get worse.
Let's just stipulate to Mr.Gibbs that he inherited a mess.Even if the economy has improved a bit,we don't want to keep hearing the excuses.A leader takes whatever situation he is given him and puts his head down to make things better.That takes the right kind of policies and tough decisions.Blaming Bush does nothing to improve anything.It also hurts any effort to turn the economy around if the President continually plays class warfare,I.e. the 1%.
It has been refreshing to hear from Mitt Romney talk about American Exceptalism
instead of apologizing to other countries because we have been arrogant,dismissive,and even derisive.The time to talk about how bad things might have been is not after a person takes over,whether it's President, coach, manager, or CEO.That is time for action.
Speaking of taking action,everyone needs to vote.If more of the same is what you want,vote Obama.If you want someone who knows and understands how to turn a business around,vote for Mitt Romney.
