Citizen’s trust of Washington is falling fast. In the last few weeks, with increased media scrutiny, it has become more apparent that President Obama’s lack of leadership and focus on governing has put the country into a position of not just expanded debt, but expanded corruption and an increased distrust of Washington.
Amidst the Obama Administration’s growing scandals of Benghazi, IRS, AP Record-Confiscation and more… the President resumed his lack of dealing with the country’s important problems, and left Washington Friday to visit a kindergarten. The President’s unwillingness to diligently deal with important matters, in favor of his ongoing campaigning, hurts America every day.
Having placed layers of bureaucracy between government agencies and himself, President Obama continues to use plausible deniability in the scandals that are now apparent in government under his administration. While the President certainly cannot personally oversee all the Fed’s agencies, departments and branches…a good president would certainly instill and insist on high values, expectations, and exude leadership! Why hasn’t this happened? President Obama was elected with only community-organizer and junior-senator skills, and so Americans are now seeing what little they get from voting in a president with no leadership experience.
Over the next few weeks, months and years, it will likely become apparent that the President has lied to the American public about having government transparency from his administration.
America is still the greatest country on earth! As its citizens, we need to come together and stand behind the values our forefathers founded this country on. Going forward, we need to hold government officials (at any level) to higher standards. If they break the law or fail in their jobs, they need to face losing their job, forfeit all benefits for life, and jail them when appropriate.
Despite the current scandals, there is nothing linking President Obama directly to any illegal activity, so nobody should be jumping to conclusions. Let independent non-political investigations lead us to the truth. Once we have that information, we should support or punish government personnel appropriately, as unified citizens.
Above all…We need to STAND STRONG for AMERICA!
