Former U.S. Vice President, Dick Cheney, proclaimed yesterday that White House incumbent, Barack Obama "is a one term President."
He took a number of jabs at Obama and proclaimed the current political conditions are so go against the rival party, he would even run for President, but will not. Thankfully. Furthermore, he'd lose, as people are still angry over the war.

Obama's poll numbers and public dissatisfaction is as such that he is harming his Democratic Party's chance for reelection. He needs to change direction, if they are to be reelected.

'Run, Cheney, Run' chants at conservative gathering
Feb 18, 2010 01:32 PM - Liz Cheney brought a surprise guest to her speech at CPAC today: Her father.
Former vice president Dick Cheney, who wasn't expected to speak at the Conservative Political Action Conference, appeared on stage to broad cheers and a few chants of "Run, Cheney, Run" after his daughter had delivered her scheduled remarks. He said jokingly that his daughter said he could come along "but I had to be arm candy."
When someone in the crowd shouted "Cheney 2012," he shot back, "Knock it off." "A welcome like that is almost enough to make me want to run for office again," he said, then let applause rise before he added, "But I'm not a-gonna do it."...
"The sky's the limit here," he said. "I think 2010 is gong to be a phenomenal year for the conservative cause. And I think Barack Obama is a one-term president." That got a big response, too.
This is a follow up to the February 15. 2010 article Obama Talks About Being A One Term President. The next day on February 16. 2010, CNN conducted a poll, which revealed 52% of Americans believe U.S. President, Barack Obama, does not deserve a second term in office. This does not bode well for him at all, as more people think he should not be reelected, than those who think he should be.
His Hollywood styleof governing, coupled with terribly poor choices from overspending to legal violations by the FBI and DOJ, are tanking his presidency in one year flat. He needs to correct this, as no one believes an incumbent does not want a second term.
On his current path, he is going to spend the federal government into bankruptcy, if this does not desist. There will be no money for federal agencies and America will be rendered completely weakened and in mass poverty.
This Hollywood styled presidency of spend, spend, spend is going to financially break the U.S. government, as any historian knows, no empire ever survived widespread reckless spending, intact. It always comes at a price.
Clearly, some failed to learn from former President George W. Bush, who spent, spent, spent on a reckless, deceitful war, whose objective was to steal the greatest known oil reserves in the world in Iraq. Former Vice President, Dick Cheney, even admitted it. So did Bush, claiming, "The oil would pay for the war." It ended in the terrible financial collapse of 2008 and said administration leaving office in utter disgrace.
The American people deserve better than that. For every person in America that goes to work honestly each work week and pays their taxes, they do not deserve for poor leadership to destroy all they’ve worked for, eroding the country with wantonly bad choices.
CNN poll: 52% say Obama doesn't deserve reelection in 2012
By Michael O'Brien - 02/16/10 01:35 PM ET - 52 percent of Americans said President Barack Obama doesn't deserve reelection in 2012, according to a new poll.
44 percent of all Americans said they would vote to reelect the president in two and a half years, less than the slight majority who said they would prefer to elect someone else.
Obama faces a 44-52 deficit among both all Americans and registered voters, according to a CNN/Opinion Research poll released Tuesday. Four percent had no opinion.
Recently, President Barack Obama stated he would rather be a good one term president, rather than a bad two term president. Obama's poll numbers have hit record lows, government spending has reached an all-time high and the U.S. economy is in the worst condition it has ever been in, as the incumbent has been unable to correct the damage the former president created, making decisions that have worsened the nation's financial state.
If this pattern continues, Obama will not leave office in good standing. His legacy will be, he spent more taxpayer money than any other president in history, national debt reached an all time high during his presidency and his poll numbers hit record lows months after assuming office. Who would really want such a legacy. As the first black President of America, Obama owes African-Americans and blacks worldwide more than that.
However, Obama is governing Hollywood style, with big budgets, like on a movie set and controversial company...and therein lies the problem. Last week, historian, Webster Tarpley, stated Obama is inviting the Dalai Lama to Washington, as he is a favorite of Hollywood, who donated millions to the President's election campaign and often visit the White House as well.

Inviting the Dalai Lama to the White House was not in America's best interest, as the largest holder of national debt, China, took it as spitting in their faces, due to the massive ongoing dispute they have with the sectarian leader they deem a rebel trying to splinter their nation.
China is now threatening to sell all U.S. bonds it purchased. The Judiciary Report is not stating be uncivil to the Dalai Lama, but the nation is steeped in financial turbulence, therefore, was this really the best time to engage in such a maneuver, infuriating the largest holder of national debt.
Then, there is the big budget Hollywood style spending coming out of Washington, like they're on a movie set. Anyone championing it, simply does not understand economics. Many a movie studio and film production company have gone belly up spending like that anyway - why the government thinks it will fare any better following said example is anyone's guess.
No nation in financial distress can truly spend its way out of debt. You are a government. You can't spend money to make money, as though you are a corporation in the black. It is also worth noting, some of what the government is spending taxpayer money on is quite risky, not guaranteeing any proper, lasting return. This is the time to raise taxes on the rich and cut government spending.
Any good head of state should hope to leave office with the legacy of helping the poor, reducing national debt, boosting the economy, rebuilding political bridges that were burned both nationally and internationally, promoting peace and consistently using forthrightness, candor and impartiality in governing decision.
Following the Hollywood way is not the way to achieve a good legacy. If following Hollywood lands Obama in Chicago in 2012, rather than Washington, he is going to be angry, embittered and full of regrets. They are not worth your presidency or legacy.
As for Hollywood, they need to get their backsides back on their sets and keep their noses out of people's politics. You are actors and singers paid to perform lines someone else writes, as most of you aren't even bright enough to do that (hence all the stealing of copyrights).
In my experience, Hollywood stars are often crazy and dimwitted - they play politicians, doctors and lawyers on TV, then go out into the real world thinking they are these things and act on it to disastrous results, as they have no formal training or the mental capacity for it.
