When I look at Obama, I see a man who is trying very hard to do right by the people

150. Mostly our government is not doing anything, other than hassling the .

State rights approved, medical marijuana clinics, which are a danger to the profit margin of Obama's friends over at the Big Pharmaceutical world.

But in other matters:
Does your corporation produce a GM substance that could lead to famine in a mere fifteen years?

Hey, the FDA head, Mike Taylor, created the "scientific" doctrine that states that GM foods are similar to conventional foods. SO no action is taken by our government to stop the GM famine foods. What did Mr Taylor base his words on? Nothing except the fact that his owner and puppet string master, Monsanto, wanted him to create such a doctrine.

We had MMS overseeing the oil rigs in the Gulf. Hundreds of millions of dollars to keep the agency alive. Did its oversight help the American people much? Given the tragic BP explosion of April 2010, any thinking person would say that the MMS agency failed in adhering to its mission statement.


BP wanted to use Corexit, an extremely toxic substance, to help it disperse the oil on the top of the water of the Gulf of Mexico. The advantage to BP - it helped produce the substance, so it made a profit on every ounce it bought and used.
Scientists and business people familiar with oil dispersion measures said it was one of the more toxic, least effective substances to involve in the "cleanup" of the Gulf.

And since Corexit forced the oil to disperse into micro-structures that sank to the floor of the Gulf, BP paid billions of dollars less than it would have in penalties.

Too bad for the people of the Gulf region, if this product taints their marine catch, and no one on the West Coast wants to buy seafood from them any more.

Obama's response? His EPA looked into research data that comprised only one 1 week study of Corexit, and then approved the product.

I could go on and on, but that is what the Democrats and all their handling of government oversight does.

I should also mention that after Nancy Pelosi achieved her victory of having a Democratic majority in the House, Impeachment of George Bush was suddenly "off the table." Meanwhile raising the postal rates for individuals and smaller businesses became the focus of that Congress. Meanwhile, significant "rebates' and discounts were offered up to the largest Media Companies in our nation.
