ran 3.1 miles
I hit my 400-mile mark today, and tomorrow will end the first five months of running against Obama. The running has been going smoothly and my distances are increasing. The blog has garnered a following that continues to increase and I’ve had the opportunity to meet some very passionate and involved political minds in Lafayette. The Tea party organizations are extremely friendly and motivating, and their meetings are filled with useful information and notable speakers.
Here is some commentary from www.teapartyoflafayette.com, following the State of the Union Address:
"Mr. Obama is a huge part of our problem, not part of any solution.
After he and his party immersed us all in massive debt and exploded the size of the Federal government, he now wants to arrest the size of that government at its present level.
In the face of this year's deficit of $1.5 trillion dollars and intractable unemployment-underemployment of 16%, he talks of fixing education, doing high-speed rail, and doubling our exports.
The Democrats have been "fixing" education for a long time. The teachers' unions have given that party hundreds of millions of dollars. That's part of the fix.
Doubling our exports will be achieved by continued devaluation of the dollar. That will make the products we still manufacture cheaper for the Chinese, but dollar devaluation will make all our Chinese imports more expensive.
As to the $100 trillion dollars of our unfunded Federal entitlements, Mr. Obama's Social Security solution is to encourage "both sides" to work something out; that's it, that's all he said. On Obamacare, he said he's not going back. Never mind that 26 states are litigating against this highjacking of individual choice, individual responsibility.
Mr. Obama ignores the obvious: the Nation cannot borrow itself out of debt.
Mr. Obama is another Hugo Chavez. As Rep. Ryan said in his response to Mr. Obama's speech, the Nation is at a tipping point. If not fixed now, we become a big Venezuela."
