Aptos, CA psychologist: Actions speak louder than words? Compare Obama’s promises with his actions.

Obama puzzle? Actions speak louder than words


Obama ran as a centrist. He governs as a leftist. He promised an end to bi-partisanship. He governs by out-sourcing legislation to Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid. Obama talks about his health care. He has made over 40 speeches on health care. Though he talks a lot he has not written any legislation. That he leaves to Pelosi and Reid in Congress. Obama has shown no leadership abilities. Read Carl Rove’s new book.

Read the Wall Street Journal opinion page today: Obama raised the federal spending as a share of GDP from 20% to 25%. So now one quarter (1/4) of the private sector is under government control For 40 years the percent of government spending as a percent of GNP was roughly 20%. Now it is 25 percent. That is a huge increase.

With one fell swoop, Obama has increased the size of the federal government permanently to at least a quarter of the private economy. Did Obama make promises to increase the government size when he ran? No. But he certainly has increased the size of government.

And if he has his way, another 1/6th of the private economy — the health care industry — will also be under government (Obama) control.

As a psychologist, I say look at Obama’s actions. Obama’s actions speak louder than his words. written by Cameron Jackson DrCameronJackson@gmail.com

    where is the link to the wall street journal article you reference above? i’d like to read it.

  • Dr. Cameron Jackson

    If you Google the Wall Street Journal, so far as I can see you cannot access the Opinion page for today. Maybe you can do it as a subscriber. I will check on that.

    The article today, Tuesday, March 9,2009, on the Opinion page:

    The Deficit Commission Trap

    “President Obama has laid a political trap for Republicans with his allegedly bipartisan budget deficit commission, and the question is whether the GOP leadership on Capital Hill will fall for it…

    “Now that they have raised federal sending as a share of GDP to 25% and don’t want to return to the 20.7% 40-year average Democrats are looking for political cover to pay for it…

    “Mr. Obama has rigged the commission so Republicans are outnumbered by at least 10-8….

    from the last paragraph of the editorial: “if Mr. Obama won’t oblige, Republicans will have further proof that his commission is a political exercise to expand the size of the federal government permanently to at least a quarter of the private economy -- even before the baby boomers retire in earnest.”

    In brief, what the opinion article argues is that Mr. Gramm — who slowed the growth of spending in the 1980′s first as a Democrat and later as a Republican… he would be a good selection for the bipartisan budget deficit commission. As it stands, Obama can pick people not in Congress but the others do not have that option. Another example of rigging who gets selected.

    I will look into how every day folks can access the Opinion page of the Wall Street Journal –
