Obama's Watershed Moment(s)

Obama was almost right about one thing:
“…it was also a watershed moment in how change is made.”
America has officially seen the day where the voice of America was ignored in favor of propaganda. We have officially seen the day when Americans spoke out and big government ignored us in its own interest. We have officially seen the day when freedom took a back seat to entitlement. We have officially seen the day when our own government, with the help of a complicit state advocate media, undermined the very constitution that this country was founded on.

Obama missed the boat ever so slightly. We’ve seen change made exactly like this in numerous dictatorships and pseudo-democracies all over the world, but this is truly “a watershed moment in how change is made”…in the united States of America.

Of course, since we saw this with the stimulus bill, too, maybe the watershed moment isn't that it occurred, but that this method of stuffing "change" down Americans' throats is becoming the rule, rather than the exception. Now that is indeed change, but if we continue on this path, Americans will soon discover there is no hope in this kind of change.
