Time for what Change?

It is time for change. A change in leadership. A change in the way Washington does buisness. A time for change in the direction this country is going. OK but what is the plan for this change? Who is qualified to lead this change? To where is the loyalty of this change lay?

Barack Hussien Obama claims and in a way is rightit is time for a change. But change what? How is he planning to change things. More importantly is this. What is his qualfications to lead this change?

I agree we have to change the directio in which this country is going. Further moves down the path to socialism is not the change I am looking for. Higher taxes and running from altercations around the world are not the changes I am looking for.

I want a leader who is not going to lie and spin what he and his WIFE says publicly to fit some poll showing disapproval of thier stanc on an issue. Barack claims he is the one to lead this change , yet ha has shown nothing new. He has offered nothing but platitudes of feel good slogans. He has demonstrated nothing new on the front of change.

This year congress really has done nothing. Sure the year is young but lets look at Baracks leadership so far this year.

Barack remains consitant undecided on this he did not vote.

This is just his record of change and leadership for this year 2008. His record since being elected to the United States Senate has been one of if not the worst in representing his constituants. He leads the way in not voting. A not voting is not a stance, nor is it leadership. It is the lack of leadership.

Here is some of the leadership bills barack has sponsered:

1. S.CON.RES.42 : A concurrent resolution recognizing the historical significance of the Juneteenth Independence Day, and expressing the sense of Congress that history should be regarded as a means for understanding the past and solving the challenges of the future.

2. S.CON.RES.53 : A concurrent resolution expressing the sense of Congress that any effort to impose photo identification requirements for voting should be rejected.

3. S.RES.291 : A resolution to congratulate the Chicago White Sox on winning the 2005 World Series Championship.

4. S.RES.516 : A resolution recognizing the historical significance of Juneteenth Independence Day and expressing the sense of the Senate that history should be regarded as a means for understanding the past and solving the challenges of the future.

5. S.RES.529 : A resolution designating July 13, 2006, as "National Summer Learning Day".


What a fine example of leadership, these are some real kicker bills here. A new holiday, recognition of baseball, and another day for learning. Yep it is a time for change but not Barack Hussien Obamas change.
