I was at church this morning. We had a breakfast for the benefit of a missionary team we are sending to Haiti and I was talking to one of our leaders concerning jobs, health care, and Obama. The guy says to me that you know he is a Muslim don't you. I said that I heard certain accusations but in researching them found no evidence of convincing proportions.
I asked him how he knew this to be true. He remarked as if it was not in doubt that Obama had said while on the campaign that he had visited all 57 states. He said there are 57 Muslim states and that proves he is a Muslim.
It didn't prove it to me. In fact in rechecking various sources on the Net it seems to be the general consensus that the contrary is true. This is verified by the best investigators in the world. The news organizations. They leave no stoned unturned.
Now to the scary part, this guy is a leader in my church. He plays a part in the decision process. I liked him then and I like him still. However, my trust in his judgement has taken a major hit.
I am not at all sure how I feel about the job that Obama has done. However, the job is gigantic. So he needs the time to fix where George Bush just plain gave up. However, on the other hand, if the health care deal is any indication, it seems like he has had hollow victories at best. Hopefully, I am wrong.
It's about jobs. Wall street and Main street are two different streets. We need to get money flowing again. These banks are nuts the way that they are hoarding the money for the benefit of the ownership.
One final note, that what certain members of the legislature have done in regard to holding the health care reform hostage is absolutely morally corrupt. Mary Laundrau for one and the guy from Oklahoma as another. They are a disgrace.
The verdict is still out on Obama, it is just to early to tell. The American people are in no mood for nonsense. They want results, if he doesn't get them, then he will be out in four. If he does, he will do eight.
