A word of advice: “Reagan did it first!” or “Bush did it, too!” is not a denial. It is a CONFESSION.

I am beginning to believe Obama is Forest Gump. He just fell into the office of President by being in the right place at precisely the right time and being of the correct color. But he cannot possibly be very bright. If he cannot understand why business is paralyzed and retrenching after he has spent his entire presidency demonizing every sector of business and investment, you know those “evil fat cats”, then I have no hope he will ever understand the motivations of businessmen and investors. These people see the president vilify them at the same time they see the train of regulations, increased taxes and government interference via preferences for certain companies and industries, that train roars down the track while business lies chained to the track waiting to be run over by the Obama administration and regulatory agencies. I believe most businesses are just trying to survive until the next election hoping that a change will happen that will make them no longer the “enemy” of Washington.

 

 Two words Mr. President would get this economy moving in a Nano-Second.  “I RESIGN!”
