WASHINGTON D.C. - Fulfilling his campaign promises, President Obama today signed the “Job Repatriation Act”, imposing tax penalties upon corporations that outsource U.S. jobs overseas.  An overjoyed Wall Street responded by sending the DOW up 500 points and US corporate leaders pledged their support for the American worker.  This was just one in a string of inspiring steps undertaken by the Obama Administration, reaffirming that his administration would be the change Americans were looking for when then put him in office last November.

Earlier in the day, President Obama instructed Attorney General Eric Holder to begin an investigation into war crimes committed by former president George Bush and his administration.  Mr. Bush's passport was pulled by the Department of State to make it more difficult for Mr. Bush to flee the country should the Attorney General decide to press charges.  Similar steps were taken to ensure that John Woo, Former Attorney Generals John Ashcroft and Alberto Gonzales, former vice president Dick Cheney, and other former officials were unlikely to flee.  On the war front, President Obama began pulling U.S. Troops out of Iraq and Afghanistan.

Rumors within the Administration claim that President Obama's next move will be to legalize drugs in the hope of decreasing drug related violence and increasing tax revenues.  A poll taken today, April Fools Day, shows that Americans are convinced that President Obama is a man of his word.

It's been nearly 90 days since this was posted, and here are a few updates and things to think about concerning our sitting President.
US corporations should reasonably have the highest tax liability since they have the highest income. Only recently has the government started holding these gargantuan tax evaders responsible for our economic decrepitude. Perhaps we should take our eyes off the polls and that giant screen with the light-up numbers and look at the real value of the American worker and the American taxpayer, and why ordinary people have no savings right now.
And maybe we should try to figure out who is suing Eric Holder and why. For reference, here are links that will be informative.

Do you really WANT the Government to be your enemy right now? No? Good. Because it doesn't need to be that way.
