No longer a laughing matter

When the new administration took over Washington and our smiling, community activist, leader took the oath of office, the chuckles began as we witnessed the most expensive inauguration in US history and the start of the transformation of America. I giggled -- initially. This idol-worshipped man with absolutely no background or experience became our new President. I laughed at how America had been taken for a ride.

When the President embarrassed America with his lame gift to the British Prime Minister ... When the One could not convey any coherent text without the aid of his teleprompter ... When he then went on the apology tour of Europe ... bowed to the Saudi king and shook hands with Hugo Chavez ...

When the new administration put out the plan for veterans to pay for their own health care it started to get ugly.

When Janet Napalitano, the Secretary of Homeland Security deemed returning war veterans and conservatives possible terrorists, it was no longer funny and it started to tee me off. We can no longer call the real bad guys terrorists. They get the moniker of Man Caused Disasters. But returning war veterans being labeled as Home Grown Terrorists?

When the administration chose to publish the CIA interrogation memos jeopardizing the security of our soldiers and the willingness of all national security operatives to continue to do what they do -- all for political motivation, it became clear that they will stop at nothing to accomplish their ideological goals. Enough is enough! I can't even manufacture a whimper of humor anymore.

Now our leader has the audacity to take the bond holders and private investors in Chrysler to the woodshed and publicly threaten them into giving up their investment? "How dare they be so un-American as to want more of their investment dollars back?"

It's no longer funny. This is serious. What was initially a comedy of errors and gaffes is now becoming a serious threat to our security, our economy and our way of life...
