Joe Biden warned us the new president would be tested soon after being sworn in. Joe must be a visionary. With less than two weeks to go, Obama must be wondering why he wanted this job in the first place. The way these problems are building up, he's going to have piles.
Lebanon has shown it's sympathy for Hamas and is now firing rockets into Israel. With Israel engaged in battles on two fronts, one question comes to mind. Will Israel be allowed to finish the job and how much will it cost US? OK, that's two questions.
Its unclear where the "peace in the Middle East funds" will come from since we're already facing a $1.2 trillion deficit. Maybe China could float us another loan.
Barack Obama ran on a platform of change, but since winning the election, he's surrounded himself with leftovers from the Clinton era with one notable exception - the big dog himself, Bill. What will he do - Ambassador to China?
Actually, there are other disenfranchised Clintonistas waiting for jobs. Surely they can find a spot for Sandy Burglar. Library trustee perhaps?
And you can't tell me there aren't any radical religious groups left to wipe out. Just where is Janet Reno when we need her?
Madeleine Albright once claimed she could leg press four hundred pounds. "Laying the groundwork for lasting peace in the Middle East" will do that.
Does this mean Ron Brown and Vince Foster will be reunited with some of their old friends?
Too bad Algore is busy.
Obama promised to bring the troops home from Iraq. Big whoop! He's got four years to make good on that one.
At least the war on illegal immigration has been resolved. In case you didn't notice, we surrendered.
From Fox News, "Obama Warns Recession May Linger For Years". Increasing the national debt by a gazillion bucks should pretty much guarantee it, don't you think?
Where's my bailout check?
Iran wants nukes. America is at the mercy of OPEC. Individual wealth resources are evaporating before our eyes along with our national treasure. Muslim radicals have stepped up efforts to murder as many Christians as possible in third world countries. Terror cells have been established on our soil. China is moving toward capitalism and America is moving toward socialism. Seventy two virgins are still waiting for bin Laden. Kim Jong Ill wants to kill everyone.
Aaahh, the Cold War Era. Those were the good old days.
