A redeeming quality in our president

I didn’t vote for President Obama because I considered him to be an empty suit and totally unqualified to be chief executive officer of any entity. After two years of his leadership our country is in the worst shape I’ve seen in my lifetime. For example, since 2006, under democratic control of both houses of Congress, $3.6 billion (that’s 36 thousand million dollars) per day has been added to the national debt, and it continues at this juncture.

Instead of putting a stop to this insanity, Mr. Obama’s solution is to borrow more and spend more. The result of this ineptness is continuing unemployment hovering close to 10 percent; the housing market a shambles; home foreclosures at an all-time high; bankruptcies galore; the finest medical system in the world dismantled against the will of the people and ruled by the same people who ran the country into the ground.

However, Mr. Obama isn’t totally bad. The following is a list of his good qualities: He is a White Sox fan.
