Mexico and Arizona

Big state dinner at the white house for Mexican President last night. Color guards, bands, food, must have cost $ 2 million. All had a great time.
But..
They are in a bubble in Washington after only 16 months in power. Apparently it slipped their mind that:
-17% of people in US are unemployed and can't afford McDonalds
-Europe is imploding which will hurt our economy
-Oil is leaking at a zillion barrels a day in the gulf creating the largest environmental disaster in history
-Over 60% of people in US like the Arizona law
-Holder, Napolitano and maybe Obama have yet to read the Arizona law, but are out there criticizing it
-Blaming Fox news is starting to wear thin

What is going to happen is a bunch of new Tea Party right wing/libertarians are going to get elected while the elite in Washington are eating gourmet fajitas. They are going to be pushing for a constitutional amendment to make abortion criminal, cutting all federal entitlement programs, trying to stop the health care bill from becoming enacted and working to bring us back to a conservative agenda.

All while the big party in Washington is continuing.

So keep your new found arrogance, keep denying that people in the country feel differently about things than you do and watch your opportunity to transform our society slip down the drain. You were up 3-0 is the best out of 7, and now you are at 3-3. Time to focus, but it seems the lights are too bright. Too late for a rousing speech-we have heard that. We need some action, commitment and understanding. That is tough to deliver from a Washington bubble.
