Food for Thought

From the Wall Street Journal

How to anticipate what Obama is likely to do next:
  • What will give Obama more power?
  • What will help more democrats to get elected in 2010?
  • Will it help Obama hang on to approximately 50% of the vote in 2012?
  • Does it increase the power of the federal government?
  • Will it increase revenue to democratic and leftist organizations?
  • Does it favor collectivism over individualism?
  • Is it consistent with internationalist principles?
  • Bottom line: Will it contribute to Obama's quest for power, directly or indirectly?
Skeptical?  Want to give Obama the benefit of the doubt?  I challenge you to provide one example of a decision that Obama has made that does not fit within this framework.
