Obama Says Unpopular Bailout Would Be Just the Beginning

If anyone is paying attention, it is obvious Barack Obama is just spinning his political wheels as fast as he can. Tuesday in speech in Reno Nevada, Obama basically took aim at himself and criticized himself but did not take his own advice.

Speaking on the issue of the failed bailout plan which crashed and burned Monday:

“It is not a time for politicians to concern themselves with the next election,” Obama told the crowd, “It is a time for all of us to concern ourselves with the future of the country we love. This is a time for action.”

Now remember, this is the same man that thought studying for a presidential debate and winning the next election was more important than heading back to Washington to work on this so-called “crisis” in the economy. Will Obama take his own advice?

Obama also got bold and proclaimed that if elected President this bailout plan would just be the start of what he would do. He is pretty bold (and I also suggest stupid) to say this considering that the American public overwhelmingly rejected this bailout plan.

And to all Americans, I say this - if I am President of the United States, this rescue plan will not be the end of what we do to strengthen this economy - it will only be the beginning.

But the union newsletter says to vote for him and he has the right skin color so many will ignore the fact that his ideas are not in tune with those of the American public.
