America at Her Crossroads

By

Roger Behra

In the last national election in America (November, 2008), the American voters elected the furthest left (liberal) president in American history. And that does not mean good things are in store for America’s future. On the contrary, it means a very bad sign for the country. And to make matters worse, a very liberal congress takes over in Washington, also. That greatly complements the president and his numerous and varied liberal goals. The present political game in Washington is on the same field, but with a host of new players. The liberal game is on.

As a result, the new political game in both the domestic and foreign policy direction in Washington is taking America into very dangerous times. And once the dangerous times become history, it is very doubtful that America will ever be able to reverse direction. America’s influence and power will never be the same under Obama or future presidents.

The very dangerous area domestically is the national debt. It is four times larger now than it used to be just a short while ago. That is extremely bad for America’s future. There is no way America can recover from that. The harm will be there decades from now. The president’s decisions taking effect now are far too expensive to continue in the log run, also. It is a lose/lose situation.

Internationally, Obama’s acceptance of Iran, who is sponsoring terrorism in Iraq and helping to kill American soldiers behind the scenes, and who hates America and Israel and wants them off the map, and who is working night and day toward becoming a nuclear power, and who does not negotiate in good faith, does not guarantee that America will ever recover. None of Obama’s televised speeches on Iran will encourage Iran to listen and stop trying to become a nuclear power. In matters of Iran time is very quickly running out.

In other matters domestically, America’s far left (liberal) president is systematically leading America down the road to a social-welfare state. His ideas and suggestions to congress and publicly indicate that. Moving away from a tried and true democracy is absolutely not the way to go. He has the failures of other socialistic nations to warn him, but he is not listening or paying attention.

It seems that American voters did not vote intelligently at all last November, 2008. They put a man in the White House that has bad ideas and no qualifications to be president. He is very intelligent but very short on experience.

Yes, America is at the crossroads internationally and domestically for several crucial reasons. And just for the sake of change, the president and his congress are clueless and asleep at all the switches in both areas of importance. It really is a sad state of affairs, indeed.
