Obama to become the new Robin Hood

President Barack Obama has won the election once again, as we all know. Nearly all sorts of media have given a political bias in his favor, and those that do not know all of the true facts eat it up.

There is no changing the fact that he was re-elected, but there is, however, an opportunity to show that his opposing Republican party is attempting to stabilize the economy, as opposed to the media’s “half-truths.”

The media is liberal and was completely unfair during last year’s campaigning ads between Obama and Governor Mitt Romney. There is no doubt that Obama means well, but all the president has done is parade around a camera with workers such as police and firemen, pulling at people’s heartstrings.

Regarding those workers, they are facing the threat of being cut back on, because of the “sequester,” necessary cuts to the budget. What the media isn’t telling us is that Obama and the Republicans reached a deadline (that is very near) about this in December of 2012. Obama is going back on his word.

The president is obviously using scare tactics to lure the public in, thus making Republicans appear to be a corruptive party.

Seeing as how Obama is a Democrat, he and his party believe that taking money from the rich is the solution to everything. They take enough as it is.

In all sorts of fairness, Republicans are trying to help, as stated. They are simply their party’s beliefs, no different than what Democrats are doing.

Rather than appealing to people’s emotions, Romney stated the facts more than Obama did. Romney wasn’t incompetent: the man was an economic genius.

Romney had a plan. Although people would have absolutely despised it at first, it just might have worked as time progressed.

Economics teacher Robert Gerard says, “Romney’s plan is like Reagan’s. It would be unpopular at first because of cuts and changes, but in the long run would be very productive for the economy. But we’ll never know.”

Unpopular or not, the nation would have prospered.

Both parties are hoping for the best. And everyone else needs to realize that they are only human.
