A View from the Eagle's Nest: Policy Assessments of the Obama Era Bob Jack

Publisher Marketing: This book tracked the actions, policies, and results of Barack Obama and his team, beginning with the campaign before he took office on January 20, 2009, and covered the Obama administration up to the date of this book's publication. Not in a lifetime has any one political team brought to America a more radical agenda of change, unabashed insensitivity, and glowing errors in judgment on a regular basis than this liberal, progressive, leftist ideological express called the Obama administration. If it were not for the extreme damage done to the nation's political system, justice, and the confidence in government, one might overlook or look past some of the failures by this administration. However, the damage has been costly and lasting and is an example of the scandalous corruption, cover-ups, and lies that are bound to result when too much power is concentrated in the hands of too few. This was the situation during Obama's first two years and even up through 2012. Abuse of power and the undermining of the Constitution's expressed congressional rights were regularly ignored by the president, who abused his discretion repeatedly until the book industry became preoccupied with Obama's impeachment-something that he deserves but will likely never receive! In this book, I attempted to capture the multiplicity of key policies and legislation, such as the Affordable Care Act, in which raw political power was abused and the will of the people was ignored in exchange for satisfying the interests of an extreme minority. National debt has exploded, and health-care legislation was sloppily and wastefully enacted with enormous harm to the middle class. National security decisions were bungled until the murderous Islamic State arose to crush, burn, and decapitate innocent people, including the slaughter of Christians. In Benghazi, we saw the senseless murders of the US ambassador in Libya and three other Americans that resulted from politics, incompetence, and lies by the Obama administration. Iran's global influence is now more widespread, and Russia runs over the administration and bullies it with impunity. The White House unleashed the IRS against conservative groups who were applying for tax-exempt status, thereby placing Republicans at a great disadvantage in the 2012 election. The abuse of power, corruption, and quite assuredly incompetence of the Obama administration runs wide and deep and is without a doubt the worst leadership and work execution team to run the executive branch in a lifetime. In this book, I attempted to provide the reader with an array of policy assessments, analyses, and letters to government officials and elected representatives that focused on these problems, and it is genuinely hoped that they have been interesting, informative, and useful to the reader.
