blog 2


This political cartoon is obviously about President Obama. It is stating that Obama is telling the country that our confidence is growing, that our finances are in order, and that the U.S is in tip top shape. Later he is basically saying that he has subjects such as energy, Iran, Afghanistan, growth, and jobs to take care of rather than his re-election. The impact this cartoon provides on our society is great. In Obama’s first term he promised us everything from getting all of our soldiers out of the Middle East to dropping the national debt. As of now some of our troops, not all, have been taken out but he has also sent more over, and he has raised the national debt by four trillion dollars. The debt that he has added has been said to be the most rapid increase in debt by any U.S president. So technically he is lying to our face when he says everything is fine and dandy because it is not. He skates around the fact that he needs to deal with our energy crisis, getting our troops out of the Middle East, the growth of the U.S and jobs. Granted he has done a few things such as Obama Care, but is that really helping the problem? Once again the leader of our country has dumped a large burden on the middle class. He has made it so everyone has healthcare, that they need, but at the expense of the middle class. I do believe he has touched of each topic that he has promised he would fix but I do not believe he has fully completed them.
I fully agree with this cartoon because he has repeatedly lied to the people of the United States. So don’t get me wrong when I state that fact because it is an OPINION not fact. If you would like to state your views with me some time I would be happy to oblige. As for right now I will state firmly that my love for Obama or any other candidate, for that matter, is not too great.
