OBAMA: Hope for big change

We are told by Obama and his administration that things are getting better; yet more and more of us are on the list of unemployed. We are told that the unemployment rate is around 8 percent but they do not count those who have stopped looking for work, cannot find work or have given up.

Obama’s strategy is to spend more and borrow more to turn the economy around. This has not worked and the cure is worse than the disease.

If Obama is re-elected we will see more of the same: rising energy, gas and food prices that are not included in the current inflation rate. All you have to do is look at your grocery bill from three years ago and now.

The reality is clear and hits each of us directly in our pocket. Obama could not get cap and trade through so now he is working on more regs that could put 79,000 people out of work in the coal producing states. Is this what we signed on for as change?

When you cast your vote in November look at your life now compared to three years or more ago. I for one am not better off. And it is directly tied to the regulations and policies of the Obama administration. They are simply not working and things are getting worse not better!
