Ostensibly, we are building roads (Obama likes to say we are re-building; most of the time he likes to make it seem like he is the first to ever propose any road building).  But, Obama and the Green Dogcatchers don't want us to be driving on those roads -- since they want to increase the cost of energy to the point of making travel prohibitive.  These policies will also make heating our homes prohibitively expensive.  We will be freezing in our homes; unable to travel in our cars, unable to work in any job which produces any "carbon"; living in misery.  Common sense should tell us that the great genius of individuals and their entrpreneurial spirit will get this economy moving again.  Government cannot legislate genius; government cannot legislate economic miracles.  If only government could get out of the way.  Let us be; give us a rest for a little while from all of these burdensome regulations.  Obama wants to create a society that is run by government bureaucrats who will tell us what music to listen to, who to associate with, penalize all creativity, apologize for all that's good in this great country.

And it is a great country.  If only we could let people live their lives.  We need to resist at all levels.  Resist every attempt to reduce our liberty.  For every Obama proposal to expand the power of government as a solution to any problem, we need to immediately and loudly propose a solution to that problem through limiting government's power.  Fiercely oppose expansion; passionately propose limitation.  I will start to think along those conservative lines myself.  I've been gloomy for too long about this Obama dogcatcher.  Every expansionist proposal will provide me with the material to propose a fresh approach, according to conservative, limited government principles.
