Nation's Problems Plus Mine Put Me in Bad Mood

I was not in the mood to post on this blog yesterday and I'm even less in the mood today.  With the government set to shut down, oil at around 110 dollars a  barrel, gasoline out of sight, inflation everywhere, and worse of all, income tax time is here. Taxpayers in line for refunds have mostly filed early to get their hands on the money they overpaid or, in come cases, get money they  didn't earn, like General Electric. Obviously, you can tell from my tone, we are among those who are required to pay more this year.

President Obama is having it all his way.  He wants to shut down the government so he can blame it on the Republicans, although the Democrats controlled both houses of Congress and the White House and refused to propose a budget.  Obama also gets high oil and gasoline prices, both of which he wants.  Billions of dollars and millions of jobs are going overseas because drilling is limited in this country while Cuba, China and the world are invited to drill in the Gulf and off our shores. I have been asking for two years,  "Can this nation survive Obama?"
