Barack Obama, the silver-tongued orator, the agent of change, the man in whom Americans are to repose hope, has always been able to talk himself out of problems. He is discovering, to his chagrin, that no amount of mellifluous prose can extricate himself or his country from the economic problems he has created. Actions speak louder than words. Does he not realize that the thing business firms need the most is stability? Does he not realize that we have a debt problem in this country? Does he not realize that commerce is being strangled by regulations? Why would he even think about raising taxes or increasing the size of government? This is a sure-fire way to stall the economy! The man is incompetent. There is no other way to put it.
