…from all the Goodboys talk this week. Over dinner this afternoon my good friend Pasquale told me this blog was interesting, except for those posts that were critical of President Barack Obama. OK, I’ll make the President a deal: I’ll stop being critical of him if he in turn will do the following:

—

1. Stop his declared war on the private sector and small business by reducing the expansion of government and its attempt to regulate everything we do.

2. Stop his declared war against Arizona and its honest attempts to fight illegal immigration.

3. Close Guantanamo Bay and get out of Afghanistan.

4. Stop apologizing to the world for America’s greatness.

5. Stop cozying up to third world dictators and despots and start standing up for freedom.

6. Stop dividing the country with rhetoric that pitches one group, class, or race of Americans against another.

7. Start condemning the true enemies of America and freedom like Al-Qaeda, Iran, and the New Black Panther Party with the same speed and passion you did against the Cambridge, Mass. police in the Henry Gates affair and Arizona for passing its anti-illegal immigration legislation.

8. Stop the incompetence and government red-tape preventing a more effective clean-up of the Gulf oil spill.

9. Stop playing golf every weekend when there are people across the United States who are hurting because of job losses and rotten economy you have done nothing to improve.

10. Tell the truth that you were not born in Hawaii, but actually in Kenya.

I think a competent and engaged Chief Executive could start working on #s 1-9 immediately. As for #10, it’s not possible.

Thank you all for this opportunity. Now, back to Goodboys week…
